    Could you elaborate on that?

    For clarity I'm talking about a situation where PTFC are in no way and at at no time, appearing as runaway winners of next season's Div 1 title. i'm talking about the Day One situation where not supporting Thistle at away games will in some way reduce our chances for success. Accepting that premise would it not be more appropriate for those who would go to away games and don't to make some demonstration?

    The avenue I'm coming down is where I imagine a near 100% of Jags supporters attending away games also attend home games, whilst I'd suspect those advocating Jag fans stay away from away games are perhaps in total committed at that same level. 

    I'm aware that such a point could be construed as displaying a sort of "better fan than you" attitude. That is not my intention. My point being more to highlight the significance if and when Jags fans deliberately decide to not attend away games.

    Sorry LIB if I did not explain myself clearly. I think it is up to the individual to decide whether they wont to go to a game or not and I would not complain if fans go to away games, I may go to some myself. All I was saying that it would be good, if the fans going to away games, especially to our enemies, showed some sort of disapproval of their action against us.

  2. Jags, Hearts and Stranraer are relegated due to the Covid virus and the leagues ending early. Dundee United, Raith Rovers and Cove Rangers are promoted due to the Covid virus and the leagues ending early. Three clubs punished and three clubs rewarded.

     

  3. The more you read about this, it looks like the Spfl wants to stamp its authority on all proceedings, not only against the Jags and Hearts but also Rangers. Listening to the Falkirk  chairman yesterday ,when he said that all the infighting that has been going on, is going to take a long time to heal. One person could have saved all this!

  4. Also on Sportsound Ian Blair of the SPFL, who I believe is fixtures secretary, When asked, will Dundee Utd  be included in the Premier fixtures list for this season. He replied Yes I don't see anything changing. or words to that affect.

  5. When Ann Budge was on Sportsound, she said that some very rich friends were prepared to donate millions to the lower league clubs. Which I believe, as she is friends of James Anderson and other very rich Hearts fans. She also said it had been proposed to some clubs who were not sure about accepting it. The usual cohorts on the radio panel, could not believe what they were hearing and said Doncaster should get on the blower pretty quick. It is a pity that Mr Anderson  and friends decided to involve Mr. Doncaster, as I have said before he believes that the premiership must always come first. The only good thing was that the lower clubs got some money, but it should have been a lot more.

  6. Going by statements on Sportsound by several of 1st and 2nd division chairmen, the reason that they voted to curtail the season was because they would not have any players if the season  started up again in late /June or July. The Forfar chairman said they would have only five players on their books. Stranraer would not have any. Most of the clubs in Div 1/2 had players on one year contracts finishing in June and would not be able to full fill the remaining fixtures.

  7. A few good weeks ago when this all broke, Leslie Deans a very eminent lawyer for many years  and a Hearts fan, stated on Sportsound that he was prepared to fund the the case against the demotion of Hearts. He also said if Partick Thistle wanted to join in it would be at no cost to themselves. He also said they had a very strong case and gave some details. which I unfortunately forget.

  8. I have just read that we have 83 employes, whether they all get paid does not matter. If some one comes along with the cash for us to take this to court we are entitled to do so.

    If we lose we lose nothing. Many fans of other clubs feel we have a grievance. We need for every fan to back the club to stop people losing their jobs. End of.  It is essential we make an effort along with Hearts, to bring down the board of the SPFL, they are the perpetrators of this mess. A new board with new voting rites will bring back some normality to Scottish football. If we do not bring down Doncaster and Co,  Scottish football will spiral further down the road
