Match Report

TTA report

Testimonial for Bobby Grove. Thistle fielded a strong side but were outplayed by what was effectively Motherwell's reserve team! 2 goals in the first 12 minutes set the scene and it was 4-0 at half-time. A 5th goal soon after half-time made for a big defeat. The weather was responsible for a poor attendance, Thistle for the performance and score!
