notes

SC/EEN/GH report Rangers' 2nd goal was by Smith, all of them suggesting Jackson had it covered until Donnelly deflected it past him. None of the papers use the term “own goal” however and we give the benefit of the doubt to the shooter.

Match Report

TTA report

“A hopelessly one-sided game. There was more interest in the autogyro which marked time above the ground“ (GH). Rangers scored 3 goals (1, 12 and 70) at which point most of the crowd left. A marginally better second half saw Thistle make a few chances but “the final whistle was sweet music“.
