Match Report

TTA report

An undistinguished first half saw Thistle play some neat football without really threatening but 2 goals (42 and 45) changed the game entirely. Thistle, pretty much at full strength, had no answer to wave after wave of attacks. Only Henderson and Shankly emerged with any credit. “Thistle trounced” (EEN).
