Match Report

TTA report

Thistle took a 2-goal lead through 2 goals by Keay before the visitors pulled one back but Clark got a 3rd just on half-time. Thistle had most of the pressure in the second half but they failed to score and the Swifts scored from a goalmouth scramble near the end. 2 x 30s were played as Mossend turned up late.
