Match Report

TTA report

A one-sided win against Queens. Apart from a few early flurries, it was all Thistle. Goals from MacKenzie (an angled drive, 27 and a left-foot shot off a post, 63), McParland (header, 65), Mallon (a cool dribble and shot, 49 and 70) and Wright (85) won the points. Top of the league!
