That thread title is making me ill But I'm frontline in any Tannadice boycott, the cause is as just as just can be. United we stand, divided we, er, help United...

Indeed. Tommy Dunnett (cameraman) is another in a long line of long standing, unsung yet heroic PTFC foot soldiers. And a top bloke too. I sat (i.e. drank) beside him on the coach to Metz. When we got back home to Glasgow he kindly lent me an unedited copy of the 3-0 Rangers on VHS. My old dear only went and taped The Bill (or some such nonsense) over the top of it! The guilt will never leave me... I really miss Campbell Hughes. He was our "in house" Arthur Montford. Tommy Dunnett (cameraman), Fraser Gorman (analyst), Campbell Hughes (commentary) = the PTTV dream team. Now THAT would sell a Tag or two.

Actually, make that 1729. I've just had intelligence reports that suggest there will be at least three minky bams who shall seek vantage from the hill.

If Dumbarton played this as a subbuteo game in the boardroom they'd still contrive to sell only 10 of the 12 seats. Thistle, of course, would have sold their 7 seat allocation no probs. 1, 732.

Aye, you're right, but it all starts with conversation. And we've got time to debate...

These undignified jokers haven't got any power. SPL2 my a**e. This reeks of shallow brinksmanship. I'm so glad we stand apart from these muppets.

Together, we've got power. We should use it to hit back at Dundee United who, although not contractually liable, are almost certainly pulling the strings of Judas the Puppet. A 2 game boycott of Tannadice 2013/14. Away attendees absolutely 0. No scabs. 2,500 @ £22 = £55,000 1,000 @ £10 = £10,000 A £65,000 wallop. Maybe even more. Red and yellow solidarity in spectacular effect.

Fascinating post. These personal accounts bring those seemingly untouchable eras closer. "A blend of English dash and Scottish brains would, to my mind, constitute an ideal side" ~ Alick Raisbeck Great grandson of Alick was in the S & G on Saturday. The legend liveth

Dear peagreenboy, I write in regards to your misappropriate use of the photograph with my friend and his 1 year old son. Almost gleefully, you have now reproduced the image on not just one, but two threads. Why would you make snide remarks about an individual that you don't know on the strength of a photograph? And why, with no good reason, would you run down your own football club on threads associated with football violence? I would ask that you kindly refrain from posting it again. Speaking as both a friend of the accused and a supporter of Partick Thistle Football Club, not only do I find your motives for posting to be extremely offensive, but your kangaroo court judgement to be wildly inaccurate. That boy has supported Thistle for 20 years ever since I took him along to the Tennents Sixes in the early 1990s and is a football man through and through. A wee bit daft in the heid sometimes, but in a good way, and a gentler soul you couldn’t meet. He’s a hard working boy and does everything for his family. As well as that he gives up his free time to voluntarily coach kids at grass roots level. He’s very well thought of by all in that community – officials, parents and boys alike. I hardly think he would have gained this level of respect were he to be anything remotely like the character you seem to have painted for the supposed benefit of everyone on this forum. On a Thistle level, his loyalty to the cause is so extreme that he chose Peterhead over the birth of his first child in 2006. Both children are now season ticket holders and even the wife (who has clearly forgiven him his “Peterhead” moment) is a now a converted diehard herself. He is, in fact, a Thistle legend within a close circle in the East of Scotland. In his hundreds of games over the years he has never ONCE been involved in ANY incident that could even remotely be associated with hooliganism or violence and for you to associate this photograph as such is, at best, misguided, and, at worst, outrageous. On Saturday his exuberance took him onto the pitch to celebrate with his son. His “daft in the heid” side took over and he was singing “Going down, going down” to some Dunfermline fans. He’s even laughing while he’s singing it – it’s some way away from the bile and hatred surrounding the events at the Glasgow Cup Final. In hindsight, he’s a wee bit embarrassed about doing that now (time and a place has been mentioned). However, it’s hardly up there with the football hooligans referred to in this thread. Earlier on in the game there were hundreds of Thistle fans singing the same. I was one of them. Big deal. I mean, really, big deal. It really is nothing. Any one of us could have been captured in an unflattering moment at some time in our Thistle supporting history - pointing to away fans, screaming abuse at a referee, ranting at a bad tackle, whatever. For that image to be then used and abused and portrayed out of context to suit a journalistic agenda is a far worse crime. I suspect a deep rooted social prejudice could lie at the heart of the matter here. Surely Scotland’s already divided enough without presupposed class divisions being added into the mix? There’s only one walloper on this thread. And I can assure you, it’s not the guy in the photie.

I was wondering what to use as an Avatar on here... ... tonights events sealed the deal

C'mon Harry, own up, this is a fishing mission right? Cos even men with steel hearts love to see a dog on the pitch Even men with steel hearts love to see a dog on the pitch It generates a warmth around the ground that augurs well for mankind And thats what lifes about

Billy Brown's psuedo-seizure was classic. As for Barr, who knows? Lambie's Jags were full of headbangers as you know, so no necessarily a bad thing. I'm sure Archie and Shaggy will do the right thing... p.s. Hi Grant, it's me, Billy!

Er, I suppose you want the link as well? http://www.scottishfootballleague.com/sfltv/

Barr's Irn Bru TV action Week 34... Some Bobby action at 08:53... Although you might want to hang around from 00:00 to 02:00 before that... ... and f/fwd to 12:07 to 13:40 after that

I think you'll find that the original was by the author, Randy Newman on his album "Sail Away" (May, 1972). Stop............. ...Carry on...

Cheers Willjag, we'll say that The tough tablet stones of management as read by Shankly, Stein and Lambie...

Looking further back we truly did it 1896/97 with 31 points from 18 in the old Second as opposed to Rangers (25 from 18) and Celtic (24 from 18). Doh

True. Although we played 22 as opposed to their 18 meaning we averaged less points. This time around we could do it truly and clearly... it's all to play for...

jags on tour Posted Today, 08:55 PM cheers for posting that, I was thinking about their head to head record and thinking Archie's must be better. a red card stat would have been good! >>> Under Judas: 5 Red Cards in 20 League Games (1 in 4) Under Archie: 3 Red Cards in 14 League Games (1 in 5) Not good in both cases. Archie's goal difference record is amazing in comparison... Archie's GD: + 1.71 game average Judas's GD: + 1.20 game average

Judas P W D L F - A Pts GD 20 12 4 4 44-20 40 +24 Archie P W D L F - A Pts GD 14 11 3 0 29-5 36 +24 Judas: 2.00 pts per game. Archie: 2.57 pts per game. A resounding case on whose mettle has actually won this title. I'm 100% sure Judas would have finished second. Thankfully, he f***ed off and we will score an £80K bonus. What a right result. Can Archie actually get us more points than Judas with 4 fewer games? What will our new record points total be? For the first time ever can we get more points in a season than both of the ugly sisters? (self edited update: actually it'd be the THIRD time ya clown) Hopefully we can keep it going and we have none of this end of season faffing around... we need six points from our last two games...
