notes

The reason for this "out-of-season" fixture is not stated, but the home team were active throughout June, basking in the glory of winning the Hozier Cup just weeks earlier, so it was clearly a continuation of their 1888-89 season. Thistle were a couple of weeks away from taking part in the Sir William Cunningham Cup, so perhaps they viewed it as a warm-up for that.

Match Report

TTA report

Still basking in the glory of their recent Hozier Cup success, Rovers, a Lanarkshire junior outfit, continued to play throughout June and somehow Thistle were coaxed through for an out-of-season game, fine details unknown.
