Match Report

TTA report

Thistle's biggest ever win (to date!) On Glasgow Students' Charity Day this complete mismatch was a farce. Scorers (time if known): Pope (4), Torbet (8), Pope (pen), Simpson scored 5 (4 in 12 mins) then Fraser made it 9-0 at half-time. Elliott, Simpson scored 3, Rae, Fraser and Simpson took his total to 9. Royal Albert were possibly delighted with their share of the £186 gate (£10,500 today).
