Match Report

TTA report

Thistle made little progress into the wind but they defended well and restricted Linthouse to one goal approaching half-time. “Wretched shooting“ (GEP) was Thistle's downfall and 3 more goals were conceded - Smith blameless. “The game, as is usual between these teams, was of a very pleasant nature“.
