Match Report

TTA report

“Neither team was up to its full strength” (SR). Gilchrist headed in a Paul pass (1). Kilbirnie fought hard to get back into the game and equalised (30). Thistle had most of the second half pressure and “the Partick men…did not cry content until they had added another three points” (goals) (AP). A 5th was scored near the end.
