Match Report

TTA report

A team consisting largely of reserves was no match for Rangers in this benefit match for W Reid. Lucky to be only 2-0 down at half-time, Murray in his only game for the club scored a fine goal in a rare Thistle attack but Rangers' centre-forward completed his hat-trick before the finish. “Tame” (GH).
