TTA report

Played the same day as v Dumbarton, Thistle went ahead (5) and Paul added a 2nd as they controlled the match. King's Park “could not settle and the defence was weak” (DEP). A 3rd goal before and a 4th after half-time made it an easy friendly win. SO reported the locals were none too pleased it wasn't Thistle's “league side”.
