Match Report

TTA report

Both sets of forwards were weak and wasted chances. A fine run by Blair saw Kinloch and Niven both miss his pass across an open goal. A long-range effort by McMullan following a corner won the points (60). “The game was never pretty nor interesting, but a hefty one” (SP). Thistle went 3rd.
