Match Report

TTA report

Somerset Park. “JAGS without a jag“ (SP). Kilmarnock scored (3) and held the lead at half-time. They looked the better outfit yet their forwards were not that impressive. “A beautiful drive“ came back off a post and was tucked away (63). Sharp's goal (75) came as a surprise for lethargic Thistle.
