notes

Drawings £136 (GH) OH credits Robert Lyle with Thistle's second goal (by process of elimination), and this is backed up by the DR. However, the GH/SC both say it was Fred Robertson, so we go with that 2:1 majority view.

Match Report

TTA report

A fine, keenly contested match in the snow. The first half saw chances for Thistle with the Dundee keeper much in action. In the second half Dundee scored but Thistle equalised soon after through Callander when the keeper fumbled his shot but Dundee scored 2 more before Robertson (F) scored (90).
