“No sizzle in Thistle” (ET). Dundee had the better of the first 20 minutes before Thistle got going then Smith and Hastings went close before McParland shot 10 yards wide from 10 yards just after half-time. The game deteriorated but 4th top Dundee got back into it and scored three late goals to take both points.
