It’s always the old cliche when you’re the lower league side, but you need to take your chances against the big teams in the cup.
The chances don’t come much better than this, as Kenny Miller was handed a goal on a plate from all of two yards, only he managed he hit the post rather than find the back of the net:
😱 Kenny Miller hits the post for Thistle just before the break!
🤷♂ It doesn’t get much closer than that

The miss was huge for a couple of reasons. Firstly it was right on the stroke of half time so you have to think the momentum would’ve been with Partick going into the second half.
Secondly, you know that both Miller and the rangers fans would’ve absolutely loved it if he scored today, but he’s only gone and missed yet another sitter.
