notes

The unregistered Jim Creaney played as a trialist under the psuedonym “Newman”. The ET match reporter states that Law's handball in the 50th minute resulted in a free-kick and goal, however he seems to have been daydreaming. The Thistle match programme confirms that Law handled on 50 minutes and that Brough saved the poorly taken penalty. 2 minutes later a free-kick made it 2-2.

Match Report

TTA report

Watson converted a pen (22) then Law robbed a defender, rounded the keeper and made it 2-0 (25). Thistle were in complete control until Kilmarnock scored (39) and the game slipped away. Brough saved a pen (50) but after 2 free-kicks (52 and 75) the transformation was complete. 2 points thrown away.
