League: Buffs FC slip up in the league with draw away to the 4th placed side, Firetruck FC.
The Buffs had won the corresponding home fixture 7-0 earlier in the season and set up 4-4-1-1 against the home sides 4-4-2.
The Buffs got off to a good start on 19 minutes when the home sides DC got sent off for a push (assault more like) in the box and McCoist struck home. This galvanised the home side who gained in possession and equalised from the last of 3 corners in the 38th minute. At half-time Buffs Mad hauled off the wide men (Baxter & Henderson) and narrowed the midfield with Souness coming in and pushing Dalglish up front - 4-3N-1-2. Possession was gained and a few chances came but a heroic save by the home keeper in 65 mins kept it all square. The Buffs left it late to re-take the lead as McCoist header home a Gemmill corner in the 82nd minute.
With Buffs Mad shuffling uncomfortably as the minutes ticked down the sirens screamed as Firetruck got a corner in the last minute. Hansen headed behind but there was time for another - and it was all the time that was needed as the header went in off the bar.
No further action. Firetruck had snatched a draw at the death. The Buffs' lead at the top is now 2 points.
Buffs Mad kicked a water bottle and it crashed into the rubbish bin. "See, that's how its done!" he said as AMC James McFadden passed by, head bowed.
Goals: McCoist (19, 82).
