Match Report

TTA report

Santala (now converted to a striker) almost scored with a 40-yard lob with the keeper off his line. Just on half-time he smashed a shot into the top corner. Kilgannon and Gibson (B) went close but it was Ayr who caused some scary moments. Stewart saved well from a corner in the dying seconds.

Media report

29-Oct-2005, bbc.com

Jukka Santala's strike on the stroke of half-time was enough for Partick Thistle to secure victory over Ayr Utd. Mark Roberts and Graham Dorrans forced the visiting defence into a mistake and the big Finn lashed a right-foot shot high into the net from 18 yards. But the game is likely to be remembered for a heated bust-up between home goalkeeper Colin Stewart and Marc Smyth after the defender's short back-pass. Stewart was restrained by team-mates before match official stepped in.
