Match Report

TTA report

“No sting in this Thistle“. “Shooting seemed a lost art“ (ET). Saints had 4 corners in the first 10 mins. A mazy run by McParland saw Duffy miss from 2 yards. He hit the bar and Freebairn had some dodgy moments. Defenders rescued him several times. The clean sheet was welcome, but there were no goals. Debutant Hainey got no support.
