notes

The OH/GH/SC all credit Tom Doonan with Thistle's opener, but detailed SP report say that it was he and Campbell (of Clyde) who went up for a header and that the Clyde defender turned it into his own net. Despite this, we stick with the majority view that it was Doonan.

Match Report

TTA report

Clyde hit the post twice and Henderson turned a shot wide inside the first 5 minutes. Doonan headed in a long ball (perhaps an og, 24) but Clyde were the better team and equalised (44). 2 more goals (53 and a pen for a trip, 86) left Thistle a lot to do in the 2nd leg. Husband and Curran kept the winning margin down.
