Partick win tightens it up at the top of SFL

Battle to get out of SFL as close as ever

In the battle of the Thistles, the home side managed to overcome their northern rivals, capping a woeful week for Terry Butcher and his boys.

After throwing away a two goal lead in a cup final last weekend, Inverness Caldeonian Thistle once again conspired to let their fans down badly. You can rest assured their manager would have been kicking some doors in the West End of Glasgow after this result.

The visitors grabbed a perfect start when Ross Tokely put them ahead within the first ten minutes. Tokely is never a player who will win any Mastermind awards but he is an honest, hard working player who has remained faithful to the club.

Caley took this lead to half-time but much like last Sunday at McDiarmid Park, their will collapsed in the second half.

Strikes from Adams and Lovell had turned the game around before the 70th minute mark, brightening up Maryhill on what was another dark day in Glasgow. Winter is virtually upon us but the three points that put them into third place will no doubt have put a smile on all of the Harry Wrags fans.

The top four clubs in the SFL are separated by two points, although Partick Thistle have played a game extra compared to the other teams.

If the visitors had won, they would have been on 25 points instead, so there will be a lot of change to come in the next few months.

Queen of the South and Dundee remain in the lead but it would take a brave football fan to bet on the outcome of the SFL this season.
