| – ET 13/8/1932. Wilson, Brown, Cummings, Boardman, McAllister, Murray, Dickson, Wilson, EWING (2), Donnelly, Clark. |
| – Ewing scored from a cross from Clark (2) and he scored again on the counter. Hearts' pressure paid off however and by half-time it was 2-2. A second half penalty proved to be the winner. |
| 2. Sat-20-Aug-1932 [h] L1-4 Rangers (Scottish Alliance) |
| – ET 20/8/1932. Wilson, Shannon, Cummings, "Newman", McAllister, Boardman, Ness, Grove, BLACK, Donnelly, Clark. |

| 3. Tue-23-Aug-1932 [h] L1-3 Celtic (Scottish Alliance) |
| – DR 24/8/1932. "NEWMAN". Line-up as yet unsourced. |
| – Celtic were the better team throughout. Thistle fielded several trialists and one of them, "Newman", equalised before half-time but 2 more goals after the break underlined Celtic's superiority. Celtic's trialist No 4 had his ankle broken in a tackle (85). |
| 4. Fri-26-Aug-1932 [a] L1-2 Hamilton Academical (Scottish Alliance) |
| – GH 27/8/1932. ANDERSON. Line-up as yet unsourced. |

| – Both teams had chances then Wilson ran out to make a clearance and left his empty goal gaping for 1-0. More chances came and went then a second goal (65) doubled the lead. Watson scored but so did Motherwell for a 3-1 win. |
| 13. Sat-05-Nov-1932 [a] W3-2 Airdrieonians (Scottish Alliance) |
| – CE 9/11/1932. Wilson, Ewing, Docherty, Jordan, DONNELLY (R), WYLLIE, Dickson, Donnelly (S), Watson, Murray, CLARK. |
| – Thistle (bottom) went 2-down to Airdrie (second bottom) in 10 mins. Poor defending let Clark in to score (15). A "beautiful equalising goal" by Wyllie and a 20-yard shot by Donnelly (R) completed the fightback (87). The ref blew for time with Airdrie awarded a free-kick. They took too long to take it! |
| 14. Sat-12-Nov-1932 [a] W4-3 Motherwell (Scottish Alliance) |
| – MT 18/11/1932. Wilson, Ewing, Docherty, Wyllie, DONNELLY (R), Miller, JORDAN (3), Simpson, Watson, Donnelly (S), Clark. |
| – Thistle fell behind (20) but Jordan scored when the ball came back off the bar at a scrimmage (30). He scored again after half-time but a header made it 2-2. Wyllie got his hat-trick but Motherwell levelled for 3-3. A pen by Donnelly (R) proved decisive. |
| 15. Sat-19-Nov-1932 [h] W3-2 Aberdeen (Scottish Alliance) |
| – APJ 21/11/1932. Wilson, Ewing, Docherty, Wyllie, Donnelly (R), Miller, Jordan, Jones, SMITH (2), Donnelly (F), DICKSON. |
| – Thistle were lucky league leaders Aberdeen took too long to adapt to the surface. A whirlwind start saw a goal apiece after 3 minutes (Smith for Thistle) then Dickson put them ahead just on half-time (looking off-side.) Smith got his second in a goalmouth scramble (55). |

| – There was a catalogue of chances missed by Killie before they took the lead (38) but Anderson equalised (42). The second half was a 5-0 whitewash - not helped by the loss of Ewing to injury mid-way through the half. |
| 23. Sat-21-Jan-1933 [h] L3-4 Heart of Midlothian (Scottish Alliance) |
| – ET 21/1/1933. Wilson (G), Ewing, Docherty, Wyllie, Simpson, Urquhart, Jordan, Donnelly, WATSON (3), Murray, Clark. |
