Partick Thistle maintained their seven-point advantage over Raith in the battle for a William Hill Championship play-off place as the two sides cancelled each other out in a low-key 0-0 draw at Firhill.
In the only notable incident of the first half, Thistle midfielder Stuart Bannigan seemed fortunate to escape with just a booking for a rash challenge on Jordan Doherty.
Rovers had further reason to feel aggrieved early in the second half when they had a strong penalty claim waved away after Paul Hanlon went down under a challenge from Josh Reid.
On a night when clear-cut chances were at a premium, Raith goalkeeper Joshua Rae then had to make a couple of excellent saves to keep out headers from player/manager Brian Graham and Robbie Crawford.
The result keeps the fourth-placed Jags firmly on course for a play-off spot, although Rovers have a game in hand over their hosts.
