Match Report

TTA report

The Thistle half-backs and forwards were absent in this match and Airdrie ran out easy winners. Their opener was lucky in that a shot was deflected leaving Henderson helpless (31). Thistle couldn't make any impression on a solid Airdrie defence and they scored (76) to make sure of both points. Weakened by the absence of Newall, Floyd (his only appearance) was a poor substitute.
