Match Report

TTA report

Thistle raced to a 2-goal lead. Having allowed these 2 goals and dismissed appeals for off-side, the ref went off due to the abuse he received. Our Boys applied the pressure, hitting the bar twice but it was 3-0 at half-time. A fast shot beat the keeper for 4-0 then a defensive slip led to a goal before both teams scored.
