Match Report

TTA report

A tackle from behind by Laurie cost Thistle a penalty (5). The match was far more one-sided that suggested by the score. McSpadyen had little support, indeed, the forwards never gelled. Celtic hit the woodwork twice and wasted numerous chances. They won the section by a point above Thistle.
