Graham rescues Pars

Posted Saturday, March 20, 2010 by PA

Dunfermline came away from Stark's Park with a 2-1 victory after seeing off 10-man Raith.

Stephen Simmons dashed his team`s hopes in the 33rd minute by getting himself sent off, picking up two bookings in as many minutes to earn himself an early bath.

It left Rovers with an uphill task, one which they coped with admirably until Gary Mason opened the scoring for the visitors after he followed up on David Graham`s deflected shot.

However, Raith plugged away and pulled level in the 66th minute when Allan Walker`s precise corner found the head of Gregory Tade.

Dunfermline continued to press and Calum Woods was denied a certain goal by the fingertips of David McGurn.

But it was Graham who recorded the winner with seven minutes remaining, lashing home Ross Campbell's knock-down to take the three points.
