Match Report

TTA report

Shankly went close with several spectacular long-distance efforts and it was a tough, stamina-sapping, gruelling affair. Gourlay knocked in a Glover shot from out wide that the keeper couldn't hold (52). Queens probably deserved a point on play but Thistle's defence was sound. “Meaty fare. Lots of devil” (SP).
