What a grand event. Super turn out. Great day out for all the family as the parents took on Stonehaven Phoenix. Looked like the juniors were getting the upper hand on occasion.

In the Senior Single Wicket Competition, Jason Gouws won in the final against Vithya Ramasamy, fitting that these two should have met, having both had the most success for Thistle thoughout 2024.

Thanks to all who made it such a success in attending and bringing kebabs, cakes and strawberries to the BBQ. The Charles McHardy burgers went down a treat too.

Thistle travel to the notorious pitch of Inverdee on Saturday in what will prove to be a season-defining game against Aberdeen Tigers. Tied second in the league on 365 each after 14 games the rival teams will duke it out for the possibility of Grade 2 next season.

For the first time in over a year Stonehaven will have two Hinchcliffe's in the team as the number 4 shirt appears with Drew Hinchcliffe alongside brother Clive. Drew likely will add depth to the batting with his experience. Muhammad Zuhair also makes his debut for Thistle tomorrow.

The two sides have not always seen eye to eye but it is hoped tomorrow's match will be a clean affair. Neutral umpires have been requested however.

There is only one change to Thistle's line-up of the eleven that tasted success against Fraserburgh last week. Fielding Coach Arran Prothero gives way to Bryan Snelling who can't wait to bowl on Ellon's artificial wicket on what will be Stonehaven's penultimate game of the 2024 season.

Centurion Jason Gouws will also be hoping for more of the same after his 102 knock against the Broch last week.

Graham Bonds and Clive Hinchcliffe were the first picks into the side against 2nd Fraserburgh, after their last wicket stand of 41 carried the day against 2nd Methlick last Saturday.

Back into the side comes young Arran Prothero, even younger Devom Sharma and the once young Namib Oosterhuizen.

Players will also be looking forward to the legendary teas provided by Mrs Hussain.
