teamline notes
  • Teamlines per GT, OH concurs (albeit in a different order).
  • Mysteriously, the DC on 16/3/1896 reported that during the match "Charles Smart one of the Partick Thistle team had his arm broken"!
dubious goals panel
  • Morton's goals 2 to 6 are from the GT account. The unplaced goals come from JL. Numbers-wise, all but one goal stacks up between JL/GT - where GT says Elliott JL says McGregor. Since JL has McGregor in itallics (meaning the scorer is implied rather than certain) we've opted to go with the GT for that one.
attendance notes
  • 3000 (OH); 3000 (JL)
