Match Report

TTA report

Wright (14, 40 and 48), Sharp, Brown (limping on the wing, 56), Glover (69) and O'Donnell (82 and 88) emphasised the huge gulf between the teams. Lowly Airdrie actually led 2-1 at one stage with goals 18 and 20 (the 2nd goal the best of the 10) but they were overwhelmed and couldn't cope with Thistle's slick play.
