One hundred not out as Graham walks on Ayr to reach play-off semis

A Brian Graham double saw the striker reach the one hundred goal mark for Thistle and knock Scott Brown’s Ayr out of the Championship play-off quarter-finals. Having fallen a goal down in the first leg, the Somerset Park visitors drew level on aggregate as a sweetly struck corner from 17 year old Jamie Low on his debut, found the Thistle captain’s head to open the scoring just six minutes in. The crowning moment however, came in the dying moments of the game as Graham pounced on a bouncing ball off Alex Jakubiak to leather home the killer blow and a centinary for the club. Ayr will not doubt rue their profligacy in front of goal, failing to land a single shot on target from nine attempts. Victory means Mark Wilson and company will face Livingston on Wednesday for the right to take on a Premiership side.
