1st Dec 1986 Preston North End 4 Partick Thistle 3 (Friendly)

| On Preston's plastic pitch, poor defending eventually cost Thistle. They fell behind (8) but a through ball set up Creaney (11). Johnston cleared off the line and PNE hit the bar twice. A header (36) was more than cancelled out by Gallagher (47 and 60). Herd was carried off after a dreadful tackle (70) and 2 late goals won it. |
