| “Jags' night of misery“ (ET). A McLindon goal gave Thistle the lead but a hat-trick from Skirton and one from McPhee set up an easy win. Niven dislocated his elbow and never played for the 1st team again. A sad end to a fine career. McKinnon was also injured late on. Ritchie and Roxburgh substituted. |

Scottish referees have a rich history in international football, with the very best ranking amongst the world's greatest officials. Drew Herbertson's new book tells their long overdue story, providing biographies of all the Scots who have handled international matches. From the early pioneers when international football first started in 1872 through to the current FIFA list, “Scotland's International Football Referees” commemorates their careers and is a tribute to their achievements.
