Match Report

TTA report

Another heavy defeat against Hibs (F5-A29 in 6 league matches). Thistle didn't play that badly. They had their chances but the shooting was erratic. Top-equal Hibs took a 1-0 lead at half-time. Thistle took the game to them when they could but Hibs were always in charge and ran out comfortable winners.
