Sat-10-Apr-1971 Thistle 1 Arbroath 1 (SFL Second Division - game 32)

Wow, what a 150th anniversary gift for all Jagskind; glimpses of promotion '71! We're indebted to Jimmy Reside for filming back in the day and to Rand McNally for digitising in 2026. 8,851 saw promotion clinched. An early Rae header was cleared off the line then Coulston hit the post. Thistle found 3rd top Arbroath's defence stubborn but Coulston scored after a brilliant passing move (35). The visitors never gave up and they spoiled the party (85) when Rough fumbled a shot. Read all about it at The Thistle Archive... http://thethistlearchive.net/match-19...
