Match Report

TTA report

A Curran pass-back OG after 30 secs gifted Queens the lead. Gradually Thistle got on top and McInnes equalised (53). A spectacular 25-yarder by Brown (the ball never rising more than a foot off the ground) won the points (57). Queens (who had been out of football for 5 years) faded badly towards the end.
