There was a minute’s silence prior to today’s game in memory of John Louden and Tam Taylor both long standing supporters of the culb who sadly passed away recently. Our condolensces to both families.

Thistle started with virtually the same eleven only change being Billy Wilson replacing the injured Warren Grenfell.

On a very heavy pitch Thistle started strongly and were immediately on the offensive with Bartek coming close. Jack Currie was begin to worry the Albert defence and Sommerville in the Albert had a fine stop from the Thistle striker . It was no great surprise when the Jags took the lead with Mark Cuthbertson claiming the goal as he chased down a through ball with  Albert defender Andeson with the ball ending up in the net, At this stage Thistle looked odds on to add to their lead but were shocked when they were caught out by a long ball over the and resulting in Mark O’ Rourke netting.

This goal stung Thistle into action and the visiting keeper had a brilliant tip over from a Bartek free kick However the Jags eventually regained the lead with Jack Currie netting from close in from a Mark Cuthbertson header. The home team were pressing hard and after a move involving Mark Cuthbertson and Jack Currie with Bartek netting from the final pass. It was no surprise when Jack Currie found himself unmarked in the box struck a well placed shot past the Albert keeper

Half Time 4-1

Thistle started the second again on the ascendency forcing another couple of fine saves from visiting keeper Sommerville , Thistle without a doubt should have added to their half time lead especially when Jack Currie on two occasions could not get out of the way of net bound shots from Mark Cuthbertson and Bartek. In the end a comfortable victory on a energy sapping pitch .

No real failures on the day but special mention for Adam Boyle and Kyle Stewart at the back and Mark Cuthbertson, Bartek and two goal Jack Currie.
