Match Report

TTA report

“Not so easy as it looks” (DR). Thistle fought bravely to recover from 0-2 (both poor defending by Stewart, 2 and 6). They were always in the game but couldn't reduce the lead. Rangers rattled in 2 more (59 and 68) although Hammill had scored (63) at which point the challenge faded. Husband saw his pen saved.
