Barton, who played alongside Holt during his short spell at Rangers, said: “He is a tremendous player. That was the reason we wanted to bring him to the football club.
“The wee man comes on and just showcases what a phenomenal little player he is.”
The Scotsman sister title The Gazette awarded Holt with an 8/10: “Scored the leveller and made a real difference to the side. Brought calmness and controlled the game. Should have had a second. Man of the match and got Town back in it.”
