Match Report

TTA report

Fleetwood never gave up but after Paul scored (10) the result was never in doubt. It was 3-0 at half-time (Marshall and Suter) and at 5-0 (Marshall and Young) the crowd were drifting away when Thistle scored two late goals (Paul and n/k). “The Thistle took matters quietly“ (AN). They played “a scientific game and…combined beautifully“ (GEP).
