Match Report

TTA report

Workmanlike Thistle made mid-table Celtic look ordinary, much to the annoyance of the small crowd. The first half was uneventful then Gibb scored on the angle (52). Hogan converted a McParland pass (72) and future-JAG Chalmers headed past Gray (83) but Thistle held on quite comfortably for the 2 points. “Celtic jeered as Jags win“ (SM).
