Match Report

TTA report

Thistle were already 2-down before McSpadyen went off injured (20). After that it was one-way traffic. McKennan tried hard to rally the 10 men but was inclined (not for the 1st time) to over-elaborate. The only other player above criticism was young Husband, playing his 2nd first team match. Wonder whatever happened to him!
