Match Report

TTA report

Dundee went 1-up (curling free-kick, 8) then Harkins went close from 25 yards. An unmarked header doubled the lead (16). It wasn't all Dundee however and Buchanan and Storey gave some hope but a shot from close in (56) ended it. Archibald got a 2nd yellow (77) to complete a miserable day. Well beaten.

Media report

25-Aug-2007, bbc.com

Dundee struck early to brush aside Partick Thistle and clinch a comfortable win at Dens Park. Gavin Swankie's glorious 25-yard free-kick started things off in the eighth minute. And once Robert Davidson had nodded in a simple second from a Paul Dixon cross, the result was never in doubt. Kevin McDonald capped a splendid performance with a neat finish and Thistle's misery was complete when Alan Archibald picked up a second booking.
