Partick Thistle winger David Amoo claims points are all that matter now as the Jags aim to bounce back from a "heart-wrenching" defeat by Rangers.

Thistle were on course to claim their first win over a Rangers team for 23 years until Joe Dodoo hit two late goals, including a winner four minutes into time added on.

The last-gasp goal ensured Thistle ended last weekend bottom of the Ladbrokes Premiership and Amoo is fed up of hard-lines stories.

The former Carlisle winger now plans to adopt a more ruthless attitude as Thistle travel to Hamilton looking for points ahead of plaudits.

Amoo told his club's official website: "It's a really big game, especially considering how close the bottom half of the league is at the moment.

"We've been playing well, which is great, but it's a results business and we need results.

"We will go out on Saturday to win the game no matter what.

"It may not be pretty, especially on the astro turf at Hamilton, but that doesn't matter at the moment. We just need to get the result no matter how we get it. I'm sure we will go out and do that on Saturday.

"We were obviously disappointed after the result at the weekend against Rangers but it's happened before and we know we need to pick ourselves up and go again on Saturday.

"We obviously put a lot into the game last week so to not win was heart-wrenching, but we will learn from it and we will work hard to stop it happening again.

"That result puts a lot more importance on the result this weekend. If we had won last week we would have been sixth and 10 minutes later we are bottom of the table.

"The league is so tight, these fine margins can make all the difference and we go to Hamilton knowing a win will guarantee we are off the bottom of the table and that's a big incentive."
