The statement should ensure even more folk sign the petition now if nothing else.
Yes...I was waiting to read the official statement before I signed it. Clueless basturds...now signed and sitting at 689

Clueless fuk wits. How many season ticket holders do we have? When the season ticket invite pops through the post, I'll be ripping the letter up and returning it to Firhill - I invite all other Jags fans to do the same. Something we can do almost immediately in advance of more significant action.

I've now signed...I was waiting to see the board statement to see the 'official' statement. Those responsible for this shambles are clueless basturds.
My season ticket is for the North stand...I'll not be purchasing a ticket for anywhere else. I'll be returning any letter I receive from these idiots inviting me to renew - it will be ripped up and returned in the envelope back to Firhill. I ask that all the other season ticket holders who receive a postal invite to renew do the same thing. Fukwits.
Petition now at 689.
Edited to write basturds

No, my season ticket is for the North stand. And I won't be buying one for the JH to replace it. Ridiculous decision and as others have said, will mean a return to a shitey atmosphere at Firhill.

Two random ones that popped into my head on reading this are Somners header against Aberdeen to put us top of te league and Gerry McCoy's diving header against StMirren at Love St in the cup.
Let's have a random goal thread to cheer us up.
Somners goal in this game will stick with me till I die. One of the two most memorable goals in my life, the other being Bobby Houston's match winning chopped off goal in the Scottish Cup semi final later that year against the liquidated and defunct Glasgow Rangers.
We were sitting second in the table, and wee Bertie said pre game that if 10,000 Jags fans don't turn up for this top of the table clash, then they'll not turn out for anything. Average Jags crowd at that time was a consistent 5000, and wee Bertie got his wish, a crowd of over 10, 000 saw Thistle going one nil up after only seven minutes.
It was a typical Thistle goal from that era...shooting towards the City End, Bobby Houston skinned the left back, haired down the right wing and crossed for The Messiah who was about twelve yards from goal. The bulleted header went straight into the bottom corner, Bobby Clark in goal never even flinched as the rocket swept by him. Very happy days, and what a team we had over the five years between 75-80.
The other goal against Scotland's most recently liquidated team later that season was the biggest injustice that I've ever experienced, chopped off for alleged offside. My memory of these two semi finals (the original and the reply) was that if we had our two fit strikers playing together, we would have eased through. Somner, always on fire and rarely injured, was crocked for the first game, and Beastie Macadam, who had recently moved to a forward role, was injured for the second.
Macadams development in the forward role that season paved the move for Somners inexplicable move to St Mirren later in the year. Inexcusable. That's when our 30 year decline started, right there with Somners transfer. The Sons of Somner (Lanark Chapter) vow to continue to fight for an investigation into this heinous act. So good to see him back at Firhill recently at the half time draw.

Schadenfreude...a great word. Bet the Germans wished they had something like it in their language. Eat that Fritz.

Celtic and the team that died - "The C unts"
What do you mean it's not a book title? Are you sure? I thought it was.

Willjag... You're surrounded. There's no escape. Put your hands in the air and walk away from the 'Manage Poll Button'. I repeat, walk away from the 'Manage Poll' button now.

Thank you for the update Sir, well see what transpires tomorrow.
-
Any other Northstanders still waiting to be contacted by the club regarding alternative seating arrangements for the soap dodgers game? Not a dickey bird have I heard, should I be worried?
-
Three world class saves at crucial times, one penalty save and an all round calm, assured and professional performance, took a lot of pressure off the defence. Kept us in the game at crucial times.
Thought he deserved his own thread, terrific performance. Well done Sir.

What, you've never angerwanked? That's just unnatural.
I have a dangerwank every time the missus is upstairs and Nicola Sturgeon is on the telly. Don't we all? Ehh lads?
Come on, surely we do, I can't be the only one.

Just read the Daily Record report and they've managed to contradict themselves in the first paragraph or so. In the headline it's "a dull draw" whilst in the first paragraph it's "an entertaining but goalless encounter". Which one was it?
Not that, dear Sunnylaw, is where you went wrong...

If I remember correctly, we used to produce an advertisers handbook, 'thistle minded companies' who offered a discount to jags fans. It was several years ago, but then again in my dotage I may be imagining it.
