Match Report

TTA report

After a bright start by Thistle newly promoted United scored (17). A Torbet pen appeared to squirm over the line but Thistle's appeals fell on deaf ears. Play became ragged and it was 2-0 by half-time. A 3rd goal (70) killed the game off although Ness scored with a brilliant shot from out wide late on.
