Partick Thistle 5 - 0 Morton

Partick Thistle 5 - Buchanan (24, 80), Corcoran (35, 39), Cairney (66)
Morton 0 -

Att: 2986

Morton were absolutely destroyed by a rampant Partick Thistle side. Thistle's strikers Liam Buchanan and Marc Corcoran ran riot against a shocking Morton defence for whom Allan McManus was particularly bad. Ryan Harding wasn't much better and was subbed at half-time. Young goalkeeper Ryan McWilliams was at fault for a couple of goals but didn't need his shattered confidence damaged further by Kevin Finlayson grabbing him by the throat after a defensive mix up.

The day was topped off by Stewart Greacen's dismissal for a wild tackle in the 67th minute.

For me Irons should've definitely been sacked after this match.
