notes

OH (by process of elimination) gives the 2nd Thistle goal to Jimmy Kinloch, although we've yet to see a report to back that up. The DR is no help but explains that a shot was misjudged by the keeper. It squirmed behind him. He twisted and retrieved the ball before it went over the line. That much was clear. The ref was jostled but he managed to wrestle free and consult both linesmen. A goal was awarded. There is no indication who fired in the shot. SC/GH reports give it to John Bowie and JL concurs so we go with that majority view.

Match Report

TTA report

Glasgow Sept holiday Monday in glorious weather. Thirds started the game well and took the lead (12). Eventually Thistle got on top and made chances before goals by Wilson (51) and Bowie (hotly disputed when in a goalmouth scramble the keeper fumbled the ball over the line). The better team won.
