94’Full Time Report

It's a fantastic second half performance from Thistle that sees them hit four and climb, overnight at least, to within 3 points of the top of the league. 

 
94’Full Time
90’+02’Goal Thistle! Kevin Holt
Thistle 4 - Queens Park 0

It's four. A Queen's defender nearly slices a Fitzpatrick cross into his net but after Ferrie saves Holt is there to knock home his second goal of the night. 

 
90’

Minimum of 4 minutes additional time to be played. 

89’Queens Park corner from the left
 
88’

Mitchell gets down well to push away Thomson's shot. 

 
87’

Man of the Match: Kyle Turner

85’Goal Thistle! Danny Mullen
Thistle 3 - Queens Park 0

Docherty sees his shot saved by Ferrie. Thistle remain on the attack though and a Holt shot spins towards Mullen who spins towards goal before firing low into the net. 

 
84’

Great challenge from Brownlie to deny Henderson before Muirhead makes a block to deny the same player. 

83’Thistle substitution: Cammy Smith replaces Kyle Turner
83’Queens Park substitution: Scott Williamson replaces Connor Shields
 
82’

Thistle playing with 10 men at the moment. The signal has already been made that Turner won't be able to continue. 

 
81’

We're going to have a break in play while Turner receives a spot of treatment. 

79’Thistle corner from the left

Fitzpatrick involved straight away winning Thistle a corner as we approach the final 10 minutes.

73’Thistle substitution: Danny Mullen replaces Brtan Graham
 
72’

Thistle were getting ready to make a change but might just hold off with Muirhead limping after stretching to make a challenge. 

 
71’

Crowd: 3,783

66’Goal Thistle! Kyle Turner
Thistle 2 - Queens Park 0

Denied just a few minutes ago by a magnificent save from Ferrie there is no denying Turner this time as he knocks the ball home from close range after Thistle carve open the Queen's Park defence. 

62’Queens Park substitution: Jake Davidson replaces Malachi Boateng
61’Thistle corner from the right

It's an outstanding save from Ferrie to deny Turner. 

 
60’

Boateng fouls Turner but again no yellow card. 

58’Queens Park substitution: Josh McPake replaces Grant Savoury
58’Queens Park substitution: Euan Henderson replaces Aaron Healy
 
57’

Turner again has the measure of Eze and delivers a great low cross into the 6 yard box that Graham can't connect with. 

 
57’

Holt isn't too far away from connecting with Turner's deep corner. 

56’Thistle corner from the right
 
56’

Eze goes right through the back of Graham and somehow escapes a booking. Thistle free kick wide on the left though. 

 
54’

Turner steps past Eze and drills in a cross that Ferrie is happy to be able to push away from goal. 

 
53’

Thomas drills a low cross across the face of the Thistle goal that evades everyone and goes out for a goal kick. 

 
52’

Holt gets his head to a McMillan cross but there is no power in his header and Ferrie makes an easy save. 

49’Goal Thistle! Kevin Holt
Thistle 1 - Queens Park 0

Queen's are left looking in vain for offside as Graham flicks the ball on for Tiffoney. Tiffoney squares the ball to Holt who tucks the ball home for that vital opening goal. 

 
46’

Graham just fails to get his head to Docherty's lofted ball into the box. 

 
45’

Graham flicks on for Tiffoney but the ball is pushed away from the advancing Tiff. 

 
45’

Thistle kick the second half off. Big 45 minutes ahead. 

 
45’Kick-Off (2nd half)
45’+01’Half Time Report

No goals, and if truth be told few chances too, but it's been a game you can't keep your eyes off. First goal will be vital. 

 
45’+01’Half-Time
 
45’

Minimum of  1 minute additional time to be played. 

 
40’

It's a comfortable save from Mitchell from a shot from just outside the Thistle box. 

 
39’

It's a great pass from Turner to find Lawless but even at a stretch Tiffoney can't get enough of a touch to Lawless' cross to direct it towards the Queen's Park goal. 

 
38’

Thistle break quickly as the free kick is cleared by Tiffoney's progress is halted by Robson. 

37’Thistle Booking - Ross Docherty

Savoury is fouled and Queen's will have the chance to test the Thistle defence from the free kick. 

 
35’

Eze gets his head to Thomas' corner but the referee spots an infringement and Thistle have a free kick. 

34’Queens Park corner from the left
 
32’

Ferrie is off his line to claim Turner's free kick. 

 
31’

Tiffoney is fouled and Thistle will have a chance to get the ball in the box from the free kick. 

 
29’

Thomas has the first effort of the game on target but it is an easy save for Mitchell to make. It's been a game of few, if any, chances but absorbing to watch as it flows from end to end. 

 
29’

Healy is able to advance into the Thistle box before Mitchell takes charge. 

 
28’

Tiffoney runs at the heart of the Queen's defence before slipping the ball to Graham to his right but the flag goes up for offside. 

 
25’

A great first touch for Lawless gives him the chance to thread a pass through the Queen's defence looking Bannigan's forward run but his pass is just a shade overhit and the ball is cleared. 

 
24’

It's Lawless with the corner this time. It's a low one aimed for the middle of the box but is cleared. 

24’Thistle corner from the right
 
22’

Ferrie has to come a long way out of his box to clear the ball ahead of Tiffoney. 

 
18’

It's a good corner from Thomas that Thistle are pressed to clear. 

17’Queens Park corner from the right
 
16’

It's a much better corner from Turner this time but Boateng gets a strong head to it to clear. 

16’Thistle corner from the left
 
15’

The corner is well defended with Turner fouled as Thistle try to counter attack. 

14’Queens Park corner from the right

Thomas' free kick is flicked behind for a corner that Thomas trots over to take. 

 
14’

Queen's win a free kick deep inside the Thistle half. 

 
13’

A quick Graham throw catches Queen's on the hop but there are no takers for Lawless' cross from the left. 

 
10’

It's a poor corner from Turner though and easily cleared. 

09’Thistle corner from the left

Lawless' cross is headed behind for Thistle's first corner. 

 
06’

Thomas takes the corner and it goes right across the Thistle box without a touch. 

 
06’
06’Queens Park corner from the left
 
05’

The first 5 minutes have been fast and frantic. 

 
03’

Docherty catches Thomson a little late. Perhaps had it not been so early in the game a card might have come out but referee Collum just issues a warning on this occasion. 

 
01’

Hint of a chance for Queen's as the ball nearly breaks for Savoury inside the box but Brownlie is there quickly to get a touch to the ball and draws a foul into the bargain. 

 
00’

Queen's get the game underway. Thistle shooting towards a noisy John Lambie Stand in the first half. 

 
00’Kick-Off
 
00’Introduction

With just five more games of the regular season remaining tonight's fixture with Queen's Park could scarcely be more important for both side's promotion hopes. 

Queen's, who have defeated Thistle in each of the three previous meetings this season, top the Championship but their position as league leaders is under serious threat and could be overtaken by Dundee this weekend. 

For our only perspective three points tonight would take us to within three points of tonight's Firhill visitors and right back in the title race. 

Games, indeed, don't get much more important than this. 

Kris Doolan's starting eleven shows just one change from the side that started last Saturday at Cove. 

Lee Hodson was forced off in that game and his place in the starting is taken by Darren Brownlie with Kevin Holt, as he did at Cove, expected to fill the left back role.
