Match Report

TTA report

“Thistle struck rock bottom form” (GH). Saints missed a pen (1) then Wallace scored (5). Saints missed another pen but scored with their 3rd just on half-time. Thistle were seldom seen in attack and it was 2-1 (65). Thistle pressed briefly but a 3rd goal settled the destination of the points. Very poor.
