notes
  • Promoted Hibernian (champions) were the new participants.
  • 3 pts for a win, 1 pt for a draw. Rules for classification: 1) Points; 2) Goal difference; 3) Goals scored; 4) Play-off (only for deciding promotion, UEFA qualification, Top 6 qualification, play-off participation and relegation).
  • League split into 2 groups of 6 after 33 games, after which no side could fall below 6th or rise above 7th.
  • Table per SPFL, data integrity verified by the Thistle Archive.
  • Abbreviations (where necessary): CL = Champions League; EL = Europa League; RPOL = Relegation play-offs loser; R = Relegated.
  • Hibernian qualified for Europe as next eligible League side after Cup results.
  • 2nd Bottom Premiership v Winner of Championship Play-Offs: Livingston 2 Partick Thistle 1 (17 May 2018); Partick Thistle 0 Livingston 1 (20 May 2018).
  • Thistle finished with 0.816 goals-per-game in this season's League (31 in 38), the second worst ratio of all-time. Doolan's goal in the final match at Dens Park prevented a new club-record from being set.
  • Thistle failed to score in 44.74% of their League games (17 out of 38), the highest failure to score ratio of all-time. 17 is a joint club-record with the tally set in the 42 game campaign of 1920-21.
  • Thistle lost 15 League games to nil in 2017-18, a tally which matches the all-time record which was set in the 36 game campaign of 1995-96.
  • Thistle's goal difference (-30) registers as the second worst since the criteria was introduced in season 1970-71, with the figure from 1995-96 (-33) remaining as the club's record low.
  • Thistle finish with a paltry 11 goals away from home in the 19 League games this season. You need to rewind all the way back to 1912-13 to find the one and only time there was a lower total (7 in 17).
