notes

Whyte of Thirds is listed in inverted commas. OH credits OG for the first Thistle (by process of elimination), and this is supported by the DR who who say that “between Mainds, Orr & Thomson there was a bit of a mix up.” The SC report contradicts and states that it was William Allan, with not even the mention of a deflection. (“Allan sent the ball past Brownlie after Raisbeck made the opening”). The DC concurs: “Allan had the first and King the second, both good shots, but in neither case should Brownlie have failed to save.” The newspaper network seems to have accepted William Allan also, with LOES/LEIM/LDP all siding with Allan. We'll probably never know, but go with Allan per the majority view.

Match Report

TTA report

After an even start, not quite back to full strength Thistle gradually took control of the match and Allan scored when Raisbeck brilliantly made the opening for him. The Thirds defence was frequently at 6s and 7s as Thistle pressed and King scored after he had “walked through the defence“ (SC).
