| Replacement Colin Gregor plunged over for a try in the corner to reduce the deficit to a single point four minutes into stoppage time – and Dan Parks secured the win for Glasgow with the conversion which sets them up to fish above the Reivers in the battle for a Heineken Cup spot next season.
The Reivers had opened a nine point lead after 20 minutes through three Calum MacRae but were pegged back first by a Dan Parks penalty and then by the loss of Simon Danielli who was stretchered off and forced to miss the second period.
The Warriors went ahead when Parks converted Hefin O’Hare’s try but the home side regained the lead just before the break when MacRae blasted over his fourth penalty from 45 metres.
Parks regained the lead for the Warriors, but the Reivers seemed to have secured the points when Kelly Brown received a quick throw-in and plunged over for MacRae to convert.
However Glasgow had the last word with Gregor’s last gasp try.
