notes

Both sides generally in playing order.
Jack Brown (Pollok) and Chibueze Izuogu (Thistle) played as trialists.

TTA report

Pollok's biggest home crowd in 28 years was not rewarded with a thriller, but it was keenly contested. Thistle's best moments were shots from Watt (6), Gray (33) and Izuogu (60) but they had 'keeper Storey to thank for a one-on-one save (77) which prevented a loss. Young Miller was bright in the last half-hour.

TTA man of the match

TONY WATT was hungry down the left throughout the first half and played with a decent level of intensity for the first pre-season game. Was unlucky not to score with his shot early doors.

Reaction

Partick Thistle manager Mark Wilson (speaking to Jagzone):

It was a fantastic crowd on both sides and, of course, you're looking for a wee bit more at the top of the pitch. The guys have put a lot into training this week and yesterday was quite a heavy load, so maybe that takes it toll on the game. Thought Pollok were really good and had chances where they could have won it. It was worthwhile. It worked quite well for me in terms of numbers and having some of the young boys filling in the positions so we could rotate the 21 players there. Delighted with young Steven Docherty who was in the midfield and Josh Miller who came on for the last half hour and Liam Dolan did pretty well too. When I was playing these games I always wanted to bust a gut to show the coaches - and the first team players - that I was good enough, so they have to grasp these opportunities with both hands.
