Match Report

TTA report

Play was even and chances were wasted by 2 sets of poor forwards. Thistle gradually had most of the play but Queens (effectively down to 10 men for 75 mins) had the better chances. Ledgerwood was in great form and saved Thistle several times. “Aimless kicking“ (ET) caused slow handclapping at one point but Kerr snatched the winner (89).
