This Wednesday 22nd February, PTWFC take on Glasgow Women at Petershill Park for a 20:00 kick off.
Thistle come off the back of an extra time defeat against Hearts in a tough loss in the Scottish cup. Brian Graham’s women suffered defeat to the Jam tarts despite a battling performance in what was a game which could have went either way.
A result here for Brian Graham’s side would be huge as we return to league action following a weekend off.

🗣️Highlights and reaction post match
Glasgow Women have had a tough season thus far, failing to pick up a point thus far in the SWPL1 from a possible 54.
Sitting in 12th position, 6 places and 22 points behind the jags, they’ll be looking to make a good showing of themselves having last time out won their match against Ayr in the Scottish Cup.
There are a few club links between the squads this season, with Cara Henderson picking up Glasgow Women’ Coaches’ and Players’ Player of the year awards last season, as well as Leah Robinson, who was also part of the Glasgow Women squad who were promoted to SWPL1 last season. As well as this, Emma Craig and Mhari Lyle play for Glasgow Women and will be returning to the Jags when we welcome them to Petershill Park.
The previous match between the clubs ended in a 8-1 victory for the Jags in what was a clinical performance from Thistle.
After a difficult last few weeks, Thistle bounced back with a 1-0 victory over Hamilton last time out in the league before taking an impressive Hearts side to extra time in the Scottish Cup. Thistle performed valiently throughout the 90 and earned their way into extra time. Assistant manager Stewart Hall spoke about this after the match and praised his squad facing multiple challenges on the day, such as having had Lauren Grant recalled temporally having faced a goalkeeping shortage and manager Brian Graham missing the first half due to his involvement within the first team at Ibrox Stadium.
After a good week and a half of training since that match the squad is raring to go for this one. With the victory against 11th place Hamilton still fresh in their mind, the squad are looking to bring the fight to the team in 12th place and take another big step towards their aims for the season
Strong followings from the Red and Yellow Army so far this season have truly helped our girls, and hopefully more of the Thistle faithful come along to support their Jags at Petershill Park once more under the floodlights.
It looks to be a full squad for our management team as we approach this midweek fixture. Megan Cunningham returns to the squad following her ineligibility against Hearts, while Lauren Grant returns to Queens Park where she currently is plying her trade on loan. There are places up for grabs as we approach this crucial final part of the season and hope to secure our top 6 place.

PARTICK THISTLE 8
(McLintock, 8′, 37′, 45′) (Ferguson, 15′) (McGowan. 50′) (McCulloch, 77′) (Donaldson, 80′) (Henderson, 81′)
With just four games remaining before the league split, Thistle went into this fixture against bottom side Glasgow Women looking to consolidate their top six position. Ultimately they did that with an efficient, if not sparkling, performance against the basement side.
The Thistle win was built upon a good start with The Jags hitting the front after just three minutes.
Linzi Taylor did the spadework down the right, collecting Clare Docherty’s pass and when Burgon wasn’t able to cleanly collect Taylor’s cross Rachel Donaldson was on hand to turn before lifting the ball high into the Glasgow Women net.
Thistle were looking hungry for further goals but there was a timely reminder of the precariousness of a single goal lead when Megan Cunningham had to be alert near her left hand post to save a well struck effort from ex Jag Emma Craig.
Still the bulk of the play was firmly in the direction of the Glasgow Women goal. Rebecca McGowan saw her shot after collecting a pass from Abbie Ferguson slide just wide of the post and Taylor sent a shot over the bar after a McGowan shot had been blocked into her path.
The all-important second Thistle goal arrived after 23 minutes and was another goal of the season candidate from Rachel Donaldson. She robbed King of the ball before unleashing a shot from outside the box that left Burgon with no chance.
There were no further Thistle goals before the break, but there were no lack of opportunities. McGowan was only denied a goal by a superb save from Burgon and Cara Henderson wasn’t too far off target with a header from a Donaldson right wing cross.
Just as they started the first half with a quick goal, so Thistle started the second in similar fashion. There were just ten second half minutes on the clock when Donaldson collected Cheryl McCulloch’s superb long pass, outpaced the full back before drilling the ball into the back of the net to complete a hat-trick and remove any doubt over the destination of the points.
Henderson flashed a drive wide of target as Thistle looked to add to their tally and a fourth goal duly arrived after 63 minutes. Ferguson was rewarded for her desire to press Burgon in the visitors’ goal when she collected Henderson’s pass following Burgon’s clearance and deftly lifted the ball over the keeper and into the net.
With the win secured, manager Brian Graham took the opportunity to make use of his substitute bench and it was two of his subs that were late on able to extend the Thistle advantage even further.
There was just a minute of the 90 remaining when Taylor and Leah Robinson worked a quick, short corner and when Burgon wasn’t able to collect Robinson’s cross, Taylor Fisher was on hand to nod the ball home for her second goal of the season.
It was Imogen Longcake’s first goal of the season, and Partick Thistle WFC’s 500th competitive goal, that completed the scoring in injury time. Longcake had already come close with a shot that Burgon saved at her front post but when she collected Amy Bulloch’s inch perfect pass she made no mistake this time.
