Match Report
Despite hitting the woodwork twice - Gary McSwegan first half and Robbie Winters in the second - we came away from Fir Park empty handed for the second time this season.
Once again Owen Coyle was their matchwinner. He slipped the ball past Sieb Dykstra following a great run by McMillan from his own box before releasing the former United striker to score. Overall, however, we were unfortunate to come away with at least a point.
