notes
  • The DR lists “Newman” (#6) and “Junior” (#11) for Thistle, respectively translated as John Hammill and Willie Peat by the OH. The appearance of Peat is backed up by a post-match piece in the ET which gives overall confidence.
  • OH (by process of elimination) credits Willie Peat with Thistle's opener and this is backed up by both the DC & ET. Willie Sharp is credited in both the DR and DET, but the ET report carries greater detail and is further emphasised in a follow up piece the day after.
