Park Thistle 8 Loreburn Thistle 1

At the halfway point of the season Park returned to second spot with a convincing win over Loreburn. Park started brightly and spurned several good chances before Robbie Simpson cut in from left to open the scoring on the 12th minute. Four minutes later it was 1.1 as Craig Watson lifted a free kick over the wall and into the net. Park recovered from that blip and regained the lead when Robbie hit a shot which bounced over the keeper and off the post with Rab Clyde following up to tap in on the line. Just after the half hour it was 3.1 as Tyler Jamieson rose to nod home a Robbie corner. Ten minutes into the second half Cairn Jamieson struck the fourth from the edge of the box and on the hour Robbie cut a ball back for Rab Clyde to make it five. It took to the 80th minute for the sixth, with Jonny Riddick crossing and Dougie Rae controlling with his chest and tucking the ball inside the far post. A couple of minutes later Owen Abraham saw his shot rebound of the bar but Andy Baird was first to react to slot home and with almost the last kick of the game Andy Baird crossed and the defender knocked past his own keeper.
