Match Report

TTA report

Keeper Howden matched Harvey's club-record of 46 consecutive competitive appearances. Not one he'd care to remember however! He should have saved some of the goals. Thistle were so feeble that “the game required little description“ (DR). Kennedy scored twice and Thistle's best player was a Junior from Strathclyde (Lindsay). They trailed 3-1 at half-time.
