Match Report

TTA report

After they had hit the bar Queens scored (13) but a defensive blunder let in O'Donnell (header, 23) then Parker returned the compliment (37). It was mostly Thistle after half-time as they pressed for an equaliser but the Queens keeper was equal to anything asked of him. A 3rd goal (80) made their points safe.
