TTA report

Two early Arbroath corners came to nothing then Craig and Chalmers went close before Rae headed home a Rooney cross (20). Arbroath were pinned back for a spell with only the occasional break but the second half saw them more in the game. Craig finished off a 3-man move (63) and made the points safe 10 minutes later.
