Magnificent gesture from Partick Thistle

Great gesture from Partick Thistle for our match on Saturday 27th April

Statement from Partick Thistle FC:

"Although rivals on the pitch as a Club we have a great deal of sympathy with the current plight of Dunfermline Athletic and their players. With that in mind we have put in place the following arrangements for our home game with them on Saturday April 27th.

"Should Dunfermline bring more than 500 supporters to that we will donate the net income from any surplus to Dunfermline on the understanding it goes directly to the players' wages.

"For this fixture only we will charge Dunfermline Under 16 supporters £5. All the money this generates, including those sold within the first 500 Dunfermline fans, will go directly to Dunfermline; again with the understanding that it used for players' wages. Please note this is a strict one off and doesn't replace our normal Kids Go Free policy.

"We know that Dunfermline are working to a tight timescale at present, therefore, rather than wait until the game, tickets are on sale NOW by phoning 0871 402 1971 (calls cost 10p per minute plus network extras) and paying by credit/debit card. Tickets will then be available for collection on the day of the game. This means as soon as the 500 limit is reached we can start to forward money to Dunfermline."

DAFC would like to thank  Partick Thistle for this magnificent offer.
