Match Report

TTA report

Future-JAG McGrillen was sent off (raising his hands, 28) but by then Thistle were already 1-up through Adams following a corner (11). He set up Moss for the 2nd (53) and a knock-on by Maskrey let Adams in for the 3rd (78). Thistle dominated for most of the match and Falkirk had little to offer.

Media report

27-Oct-1996, Sunday Mirror

PARTICK THISTLE continued their climb up the table with a 3-0 win over ten-man FALKIRK. Charlie Adams' strike put them in front. Things got worse for Falkirk when Paul McGrillen was red-carded for an off-the-ball incident. David Moss netted Partick's second just after the break, with Adams wrapping it up.
