The scribes in the press box moved down to the front of the stand to see the action as the fog got worse.

Match Report

TTA report

The pitch was “a mosaic of snow and sand” (ET) and thick fog descended in the second half. League leaders Hibs were the better moving team and led 1-0 at half-time whereas Thistle were more direct and robust. Walker levelled with a “sledgehammer” (54) and he hit the post late on before Hibs scored (85). Unlucky.
