Mansell scored his first goal for Partick Thistle in his final appearance for the club on the last day of the 2018–19 season, opening the scoring in a 3–0 win over Queen of The South, a result which confirmed Thistle's safety in the Scottish Championship and guided the team to a sixth-place finish.

Partick Thistle
