notes

OH credits George Wyllie with Thistle's opener (by process of elimination), but SC/GH/JL say it was Willie Miller, and we go with them. SC gives the 2nd QOS goal to McGowan; GH/JL say Anderson. We stick with the latter.

Match Report

TTA report

Apart from a spell after half-time, Queens were superior. They took the lead (10) but Miller scored a disputed goal (40), the ref deciding the ball had gone over the line before being saved. Queens scored (41 and 42) but a 20-yard free-kick by McAllister (60) then a goal by Wyllie (61) levelled things. The winner came (90).
