Partick Thistle Lawless is flawless

-

We made a flying start to the league season at Easter Road. Unfortunat­ely, Chris Erskine’s sixth-minute opener proved to be the highlight from a Partick point of view. Hibs, to be fair, deserved their win but there was enough in our performanc­e to keep most Jags fans happy.

Steven Lawless’s pass to Erskine for the early goal was a thing of beauty and let’s hope it’s a sign of things to come for the season from one of Scottish football’s most seriously underrated talents.

The injury to Kris Doolan was a blow but Kevin Nisbet looks a decent replacemen­t. His performanc­e in a great midweek Betfred Cup win at St Johnstone was very encouragin­g.
