0101101111000 Our goal tally the last 13 games? Or “Clearout needed” in binary?

Wow. By the time this is done we’ll be able to parody Billy Joel’s “We Didn’t Start the Fire” three times over….

Devil’s advocate question, and apologies if this offends anyone (especially those working hard behind the scenes): Does JLow have a point? Is there reason for existential concern over transferring shares to the TJF entity? I can see her point that handing over shares to just any fan group could actually be detrimental, but has it made clear what improvements she/they need to see before handing over the shares? If she has her own criteria in mind for “fit and proper” or “what it will take for me to feel comfortable executing this part of Colin Weir’s vision” then I think she needs to communicate that explicitly. Just realized I can help put this all to rest if I go buy a few Powerball and Mega Millions tickets. Excuse me while I head to the convenience store…..

Match between 3rd and 4th to be played at Firhill? (Total guess, not positive)

Did TJF already collect money? Or just pledges?

Side by side articles in the ET: ”Partick Thistle Women Hold Fundraising Charity Auction” ”West End Cat Burglar Strikes Again”

Was surprised to read they are self-funded. They have an auction going for another few days with some really cool stuff on offer. Will be throwing out a few bids to support a worthy group of players (and, yeah, for the cool stuff) https://www.32auctions.com/organizations/95642/auctions/121065?r=1&t=all

Akinola looked more like the Akinola from first half the season. Arbroath looks a totally different team without their loan signings.

My 5-year old, a bit harsher on the pitch: ”Daddy, is that a fairway? Or a bunker?”

Haven’t seen the pitch in a few weeks. Looking miles better today.

What is the MBM Board Nominees Ltd entity affiliated with 3BC? What do they actually do - maintain a roster of people to sit on the board of a 3BC owned company?

I don’t think I’ve ever seen a pitch in this poor condition. If the stadium wasn’t there I’d think this was an empty sandlot

Everyone who has said this league should be ours for the taking is spot-on. Won’t profess to know our true finances given we were hard done by the SPFL, but I’m not impressed by any other teams right now, even a post-Dowds/post-Nouble Arbroath. I hope McCall can instil that belief in the squad.

Six days before the window closes…..does this mean are we now resigned to more OF loan players? Starting to feel like trying on suits in a shop at this point….”You know the Hastie didn’t quite look right. I’m really looking for something more like the Mayo I got last summer. Do you have anything like that in stock?”

Bring back Dools!!!

Team has to find that really disheartening. Plenty of chances to win —and it wouldn’t have mattered as much if Mayo didn’t give away a penalty. Nice attack on the Accies goal at the end. I can see why Graham had been subbed off by then but can’t help wondering if he would have got the winner for us there. I don’t think a draw was a fair result - should have taken all 3.

What’s Graham’s deal? Are we not using him properly or does he just not have it? I’m not clever enough to know.

Christ

Yaaaaaaaaaassssss!!!!!! Was that Foster’s hustle that started that?

In all honesty I typed that after the penalty. Still holds true though!!!

Hope Tiff’s failure to pass to Rudden instead of shooting doesn’t come back to haunt us here…

Expect an announcement tomorrow. “While we fully expect the current COVID situation to be relaxed in the coming months, Partick Thistle sitting 5th with two games in hand is just too good to pass up. We therefore are calling the league effective immediately.”

Well there’s the COVID postponement then….

Happy new year to all of youse and all of yours! The first transfer of the new window here in the US has been announced - trusted veteran midfielder Al Cahall is joining Myliver FC on a five-hour contract. Good bit of business if I do say so myself. Be safe and enjoy the celebrations!!! Len/ChiThistle

Happy Christmas Jags fans!!! Hope Santa is good to you and yours tomorrow. Thankful to have a good club to support and many dedicated people to support it with!
