Match Report

TTA report

Ibrox. Morton were the better team - but not by much. Howden made a mess of a high ball and left an open goal (20). Thistle fought on but couldn't find the net. Raisbeck was outstanding. He set up Branscombe for an equaliser but he took too long and the ball was cleared. A 12th consecutive league defeat.
