notes

DU lists scorers as: Kinloch, Kinloch, Hair, Bobby Bauld (o.g.), Bobby Bauld (o.g.). SC/GH make no mention of o.g.'s, SP mention that Grove's shot went in off Bauld, but we feel this is not enough to consider any changes from the OH.

Match Report

TTA report

United hit the post before Thistle took over and after that it was a one-sided affair. Kinloch at inside-right had an excellent game and scored a hat-trick. Hair and Grove got the other goals as Thistle outclassed bottom of the league United. Trailing 3-0 at half-time, they were never a threat.
