Match Report

TTA report

Thistle took the lead (Whittle, 5) but with players missing or playing out of position, they fell away. Morton were the better team throughout. They hit woodwork 3 times and had 2 stonewall penalty claims ignored. Campbell looked suspect at 2 of the goals. They “failed wretchedly in attack and defence” (GH).
