Match Report

TTA report

Thistle had already survived a disallowed goal and a few close shaves before Hamilton took the lead on the half-hour. Roberts hit the post just on half-time. Poor defending led to a 2nd goal (52). 10 minutes later Roberts pulled one back from a knock-down but the fight-back petered out. A fair result because Thistle were 2nd best.
