Match Report

TTA report

In drenching rain McCorkindale put up the shutters but once Thistle (with 5 regulars missing) settled, the goals came easily and Bennett scored in either half. McCorkindale was busy but Thistle went on to score 4 more after half-time playing in “grand style” (GH). Port hit the bar twice. Due to darkness 2 x 35 minutes were played.
