  1. For the benefit of those who didn't see it, she pronounced it Keltic.
  2. Queen's Park 6-0 Partick Thistle. Open question to the Board. Why did I have to go to the Queen's Park website to find a report and the score? The OS advertised the match and said details would be posted at half-time and full-time. Where are they? If they are lurking in Facebook of Twitter or whatever, why? Please give us reports with teamlines etc in the OS for us all to see, free and readily accessible.

  4. Third Lanark Oh hold on a minute. Gretna Oh hold on a minute. Clydebank As a senior team Oh hold on a minute. Don’t think I’ll bother!
  5. FT. Won 5-0 (BBC). Who were the U18s playing on Friday FT. Competition or a friendly?
  6. In order to validate a future addition to The Thistle Archive, I'm searching for information about a couple of missing reserve fixtures for season 1980-81. These are Queen's Park (A) and Rangers (H). Dates played not known. If anyone has programmes for the following matches I'd be grateful if they could PM me so that I can pick up anything by way of reports these programmes might contain. Programmes were not sequentially numbered so it's not possible to tell if they were all issued. Many thanks. Rangers 6/8/1980 Queen's Park 27/8/1980 St Mirren 3/9/1980 St Mirren 13/9/1980 Rangers 12/1/1981 Celtic 29/4/1981

  8. Funny you should say that M'lady. My old granny used to wrap some in tissue paper and put them in her clootie dumplings - then forget to tell us she'd done so.
  9. Not if they were the silver thruppenny bits.
  10. Is that an extract from your Lonely Planet Guide entry Jaggernaut?
  11. Thanks for the clarification. Looks like the rumours were well off the mark.
  12. No names, no pack drill but I heard a rumour on Saturday only 500 were printed whereas around 2,000 was normal. The club were losing serious money every week because they were not selling so they stopped them. Perhaps a modest print run this week was to test the water again? Makes me wonder what happens to the £100 of everyone who has subscribed to the mail order service if the club decide to withdraw them.
  13. "for the good of Scottish football" ERROR. DOES NOT COMPUTE! ERROR. DOES NOT COMPUTE! ERROR. DOES NOT COMPUTE! ERROR. DOES NOT COMPUTE! ERROR. DOES NOT COMPUTE! ERROR. DOES NOT COMPUTE! ERROR. DOES NOT COMPUTE! ERROR. DOES NOT COMPUTE!
  14. Will there be a subscription service for postal delivery as there was a couple of seasons ago?
  15. Just watched the Falkirk TV coverage of the pen shoot-out. Look at the linesman. Is he not ideally placed to judge whether the keepers come off their line with both feet too soon? Think I'm right in saying he was looking at the taker for every penalty, in fact on one occasion he's half looking round and almost missed the kick.
  16. First sighting of Ben "I'll run into this guy, go down and get a foul" Williamson. Unfortunately the former is too frequent and the latter too seldom. Stay on your feet Ben.
  17. It was a mystery to me how Pevsner scored an og every week yet kept his place.
  18. Using the SPFL website and taking no account of experience levels or positions played, only 12 teams out of 32 filled their 9 substitute places yesterday. Clyde managed only 3, Stenhousemuir and Stranraer managed 4 and 5 teams including Thistle filled 5. The other 4 were Bonnyrigg Rose, Cowdenbeath, Forfar and Morton. We know in Thistle's case only 3 were outfielders. Even allowing for McMillan and Robinson being injured the squad looks worryingly lacking in numbers. A lot of faith may have to be put in the youngsters.
  19. Thistle have discovered in the past that signing players from the lower divisions isn't as straight forward as it might seem. Part-time players often can't afford to give up steady well-paid jobs outside football and go full-time unless the club is prepared to pay over the odds to make it attractive to the player. Harry Milne is a rare exception recently. Ironically when Thistle were part-time (or a mixture of full-time/part-time) it was easier. A hidden cost of being ambitious?
  20. Paine, Hegarty, Narey, Milne and Bannon must be coming to the end of theirs.
  21. There's no indication the cover price was increased. The prog says 1 shilling.
