First Team Debuts

Milestones
Mark McCulloch played his 100th major competitive game for the Club.

Caley Thistle were very disappointed to lose this match to an injury time goal after holding out for so long. Andy Tod was a hero for Dunfermline at both ends. In 72 minutes Martin Bavidge chipped keeper Ian Westwater only to see Tod head it off the line and with seconds left Tod headed home an Owen Coyle cross to give Dunfermline three points. Caley Thistle had a good first half and could have scored in 17 minutes when a deflected Davide Xausa shot was saved by Coyle. Dunfermline had the better of the second half and were unlucky in 67 minutes when a Steve Crawford shot came off the bar.
