Match Report

TTA report

Bottom club Queens adopted rough play from the start but Thistle were more skilful. Ex-JAG Smith had some fine saves for Queens who took the lead (50) when Freebairn blundered at a cross. Kerr equalised from 12 yards (53). Foolishly, Thistle tried to “mix“ it but it backfired and goals 70 and 73 came before Kerr scored (84).
