Match Report

TTA report

Two goals inside 10 minutes (Coulston from a corner and Glavin after a Coulston shot was cleared off the line) set Thistle on their way. A brilliant save denied Smith just on half-time. Lots of second half pressure came to nothing, a good shout for a pen was denied then Glavin did score from one (82).
