Rangers B blew Partick Thistle away in the Glasgow Cup with five different scorers proving too much to handle for the Jags.
David McCallum's young team lead the way in the Lowland League and were out to kick off their defence of the trophy against a Thistle side mixed between senior pros and youngsters. First team players David Mitchell, Scott Tiffoney, Tunji Akinola and Ross Docherty were among the starters as was highly-rated Gallagher Lennon - son of Celtic hero Neil.
Despite the disparity in experience, though, it was Rangers who ran riot with a convincing 5-1 win. Tony Weston, fresh back from a loan spell at Thistle, struck a magical opener before Zak Lovelace doubled the lead just five minutes later. Charlie Lindsay added a third before the break and after Jack Harkness pulled one back for the Jags, Robbie Ure and James Graham added to a resounding win which was aided after Jags skipper Docherty was shown a red card at 4-1.
