notes

OH credits Peter Bain with Thistle's fourth goal (by process of elimination) but it's a clear o.g. by Savage according to the reports in SC/GH with which JL concurs. We go with the majority here.

Match Report

TTA report

Queens took the lead (10) but Thistle's best spell produced goals by Hastie (25), Miller (37) and McLennan (39) to make it 3-1 at half-time. It was all about defence in the second half and Queens eventually pulled one back on merit (80) but a clearance ricocheted off a defender for an OG in the dying minutes for 4-2.
