That was a league game ;)
 
I was at that Thistle game in 95. I thought it was 0-0 and there were two players played that day who never started again. Paul McKnight and Neil Caldwell.

Definitely 1-1.

McKnight came on as a sub that day for his debut but made 1 other substitute appearance the following season.

Well there we go, I thought McKnight was never heard of again. I was only 11 when the game was played so my poor memory hopefully has some mitigation.
