Electric Bar 2 Larkhall Thistle 2

Thistle drew with a good well organised Electric Bar side who play in the Central Amateur League on the plastic at Dalziel Park. It was a chance to look at some players and try out formations but the Jags had to come from 2-0 down to grab a draw, Mark Canning (penalty) and Matty Clarke with a mazy dribble getting the goals.

 

Larkhall Thistle v Maryhill 20th September 2014

Larkhall Thistle v Maryhill Central League Division One 20th September 2014
Thistle came from behind twice in a bad tempered game that saw both sides reduced to 10 men for a second half bust-up. The Jags created enough clear cut chances in the second half to win three games and can count themselves unfortunate to be stuck on four points after four home league games in a row

20-09-14
Thistle’s next league game is the difficult looking fixture away at joint leaders Lesmahagow, who will be desperate to get revenge for their 3-0 loss at Gasworks in the Sectional League Cup.
