Match Report

TTA report

A pen (11) set Kilmarnock (1 defeat in 24) on their way and they led 3-0 at half-time. Thistle enjoyed their best spell early in the second half and Davidson and Fleming both hit the woodwork before Nimmo scored (64) but 2 goals (69, a blunder by Freebairn - who was both brilliant and incompetent -(72) emphasised it was all too easy.
