Match Report

TTA report

In swirling wind on a sanded pitch ex-JAG Hardie scored (15). Roberts wasted a good chance (21) then 2 free-kicks were squandered. Tuffey was seldom troubled as half-time arrived. A poor defensive header gifted Hardie his 2nd (48). A few half chances apart, Thistle never looked like getting anything from the match.

Media report

10-Mar-2007, bbc.com

Martin Hardie netted twice to earn St Johnstone a win that closes the gap on league leaders Gretna to six points. Hardie beat the offside trap to head Peter MacDonald's chip past Jonathan Tuffey after 15 minutes. Three minutes into the second half, Hardie made it two when he blasted the ball into the top right hand corner of the net from just outside the box. The Perth side dominated and they were denied a penalty when Scott Boyd appeared to handle the ball.
