Billed in the press as the Div 1 decider, 11,500 saw Thistle go ahead when Rooney shot home for a half-time lead. Somner crossed to the unmarked Joe Craig to head in the 2nd. There were no failures on the day and promotion was almost guaranteed as Thistle went 9 points clear of 3rd place with 6 games remaining.
