Partick Thistle completed the signing of winger, Blair Lyons, from Montrose on a two-and-a-half-year deal on 27th January 2020 with Blair returning to the Gable Endies on loan for the remainder of the 19/20 campaign.
Lyons joined Montrose in 2019 from Stirling University where he had greatly impressed with his pace and skill while also studying for a Sports Science degree.
At the time of signing with the Jags, he’d played 20 league games and netted six goals in the process from the wing playing in the same team as on-loan Jags midfielder, Mouhamed Niang.
Greatly aided by Blair’s creativity Montrose were able to secure a fourth-placed finish for the second year running in League One, winning over 50% of their games.
When the season was cut short in March, Blair had 10 league goals in 26 games seeing him sit fifth in the divisional scoring charts. That form earned him a spot in the League One Team of the Season.
In his first season at Firhill, Blair made 12 appearances with his first start for the Club coming on the final day of the season at Montrose.
Lyons agreed a deal to rejoin Montrose on loan for the 2021/22 camapaign in late May 2021.
Contract Expiry: Summer 2022
