i fully agree with the romance of being a thistle fan, the uncertainty of not being guarenteed a win, that is what makes football entertaining no matter what team you support.
The over joy of winning and upset when we lose
but when when your watching an 18 yr old thistle player, marking a 25yr old and getting either over powered, out classed or out paced,
You get people screaming abuse at him
im no psychologist, but hes not going to gain confidence in that
we have a manager who is probably matching expectations for his first season, not just being a thistle manager but being a manager outright
Alex ferguson almost got sacked at man utd
and im not saying that jackie mac will turn out like ferguson
but who knows.
and then our cheery wee faces will come on here and start giving abuse at anything they can with the clubs
wether it being the pies not being warm enough, the stewards stopping someone from taking a picture and now the ball boys
we have had players over the years that will always say that we are the best supporters to play for, thats a reputation that i really like.
part of the reason of me being a thistle fan was the banter you got at firhill, and the stands are slowly changing from comical banter to just standard verbal abuse.
