All too often recently this fixture seems to have been bedevilled by either of the worst of the winter elements. Rain and snow have wrecked previous encounters as spectacles, but in this instance, a gale force wind reduced proceedings to near farce at times. Goram made fine saves from Paddy Connolly and Duncan Ferguson in the very early stages as United faced the double disadvantage of wind and slope. Ian Ferguson forced a good save from Alan Main and then hit the base of the post, but that was as close as either side came to scoring.
With the wind at our backs in the second period we had the greater share of possession, but a Paddy Connolly shot which curled fractionally past was as close as we came to breaking the deadlock in that second period. The true winner in this contest was the wind with a share of the points just about right.
