Match Report

TTA report

“Duffy, king of the mudlarks“ (ET). In torrential rain, bottom club Albion played some neat stuff but lacked a punch. Brown went close from 30 yards as Thistle dominated. Duffy scored when he was first to react when a Brown free-kick stuck in the mud (63) and McBride scored with a textbook header (76) at a corner.
