Match Report

TTA report

St Mirren had difficulty raising a team but they hit Thistle with 3 goals (25, 30 and 40) - the first 2 from crosses and the 3rd a pen. A better second half for Thistle saw Peat pull one back 20 minutes from time but generally Thistle were poor except for Newall and Sharp (A). All to do in the 2nd leg.
