  1. I'm sure that amongst 6800+ matches, there must have been some with no shots on goal, let alone on target, but for professional footballers in the modern era that was a disgrace. Not even a blooter over the stand or a mis-hit trundler. I watched the whole match at x1.5 speed. Thistle at least found some pace but the problem was Rovers did the same! Very very poor indeed.
  2. Just phoned RRFC. The ticket "pod" will be open before the game for away fans. You can pay for entry on the day.
  3. Arguably not appropriate to this thread but worth remembering that if Falkirk or Livingston are crowned champions they will have to spend a fortune ripping up their plastic pitch in favour of grass. When VAR was introduced there was a levy of all Premiership clubs. Unless that was a one-off, Falkirk and Ayr Utd will also need to contribute towards the cost. Not sure if that applies to Livingston as well.
  4. Morton website has a warning about pyrotechnics thrown yesterday and they are co-operating with Thistle to try and identify the culprits. In addition to Morton, Hamilton Accies fans did the same thing (flares rather than smoke bombs). It's worth remembering that this in the same stand that the police strongly advised Thistle should not give over to Old Firm fans.
  5. Stuart Calderwood???? Jimmy Walker Willie Sharp Tommy Ledgerwood
  6. Mathers played 8 times against Motherwell at home but Hunter only played in one of them.so it looks like it was the 1-1 draw on 30/8/1958. There is evidence Firhill still had some grass so August looks ok! Ledgerwood, Davidson, Baird, Mathers, Hogan, Donlevy, Smith, Wright, KERR (58 MINS), McParland, Keenan. Weir, McSeveney, Brown, Aitken, Martis, McCann, HUNTER (34 MINS), Quinn, St John, Forrest, Weir. Att: 20,600.
  7. Willie Hunter nearest the camera. Davie Mathers behind him.
  8. The results are often posted in the main JAGS forum on a Monday. Alternatively they are written up on a white board in the JHS concourse. Towards the city end opposite the turnstiles. If you are a regular attender, they are often to be seen on the board at the next home game.
  9. Glasgow Lord Provost Pat Lally in the middle.
  10. Hope he attains them. It'll mean he can be the manager when we are playing in Europe.
  11. www.gov.uk/government/publications/online-safety-act-explainer/online-safety-act-explainer Note the reference to online forums.
  12. There used to be a rule concerning such matters. Perhaps there still is? The SFL/SPFL always brick it that they'll have a fixture pile-up in the making so more often as not "advise" clubs that it should be the next available date.
  13. Just noticed the attendance yesterday was 1769. Compared with the league match a few weeks ago that was down 1010. And they used to say the Scottish Cup attracted bigger crowds!
  14. "This channel is not available" and silence for me.
  15. I sometimes wonder what Thistle fans expect to see on a Saturday. Overheard conversation after the game... "I know we scored 5 but we're not playing well".
  16. The authorities could make one simple change by reverting back to goal kicks as they used to be. Make it a bookable offence if a goalkeeper fails to place the ball for a goal kick at the side of the goal signalled by the referee.
  17. I think I'm right in saying that it's in Maurice Johnston's book that when he was leaving for Watford, Peter Cormack learned Maurice had no agent. He drove him down south and sort of rehearsed him what to say. Maurice was grateful as he got a better deal that he might have without Peter's input.
  18. Yes, it seems totally unnecessary and just an added expense. I'm sure the light at the end of the match would still have been acceptable. When every pound is a prisoner, as the days get shorter, why not move KO times to 2.00 and see the games out without the lights? Not sure if I've got this right but was there not a rule at one time that you are not allowed to put the lights on during a match? You have to start with them on.
