Match Report

TTA report

The serious business started well. Roberts robbed Dundee's player-manager Rae, sent Gibson (G) away and took a return pass (28). Thistle had the best of the chances through Gibson (G) and Donnelly but failure to take them wasn't costly. Dundee increased the pressure towards the end but Thistle held on.

Media report

05-Aug-2006, bbc.com

A first-half goal by Mark Roberts was enough to secure victory for Partick Thistle at Dens Park. The veteran striker scored in the 28th minute, tucking away an easy chance from Graham Gibson's clever assist. The hosts found their opponents difficult to handle from then on although Thistle failed to convert several decent chances. Dundee's cause was not aided by losing goalkeeper Ludovic Roy and key defender Bobby Mann to injuries.
