Tickets on sale tomorrow for ST holders.

I guess the limit will be 500 (plus bubbles). And as we are at close to 1,500 ST’s, it is likely there will be some disappointed supporters.
Although, I can’t go to the Dunfermline game, I am more interested in how the tickets for home games will be allocated - I hope it isn’t going to be whoever is fastest on the phone.You'd hope that the club would be speaking to the SG with a view to getting the capacity increased to cover all season ticket holders.
I think there is a limit of 1,000 in seated stadiums, but that you can ask for an increased attendance and it will be assessed.

I see Croatia were training at Firhill yesterday.
Hopefully Kingsley put the fear of god into them for tonight!

Marshall made 2 or 3 really good saves during the game, that will unfortunately be forgotten but that's the way it goes sometimes.
He will know himself that he was probably 10 yards or so too far forward, had he been further back then Schick maybe doesn't take the shot on and they have a counter attack on which could well have resulted in a goal anyway.
Hendry probably shouldn't have taken the shot on, but he was just after hitting the bar and had scored a great goal against the Netherlands so I can see why he did it. Just about everything that could have went wrong for Scotland in that sequence of play did go wrong and it's really unlucky. As amazing a finish as that was, he could hit that shot another 50 times under the same conditions and probably be lucky for it to go in a handful of times.

I think Scotland could have played better, but I didn't think that they played badly. Tierney is a huge miss, not only for what he brings to the team personally but also because I think he brings the best out of Robertson who then has an overlapping, or underlapping player helping him out.
There is very little between the two teams, I always thought the first goal would be crucial and unfortunately the Czechs got it. I think if Robertson had taken that chance midway through the first half we would have been sitting this morning looking at things completely differently.
I can understand the disappointment, it was a very winnable game at home in a major tournament and we failed to win it. However you'd think that we had been battered for 90 mins going by some of the reactions.

Rudden has been called up by the Scotland U21's, delighted for him

I get the impression McCall wanted Cardle to stay but felt it fairer in terms of playing time that Joe got to move on ....will miss the wee Man’s commitment and effort .
If we end up signing Tiff and one or two others of the same standard or even better then the decision to release Cardle will probably prove to be the correct one.
It's easy to criticise decisions when you can't see the whole picture. I'd have kept him, but if McCall thinks the players he is aiming to sign will drop him further down the pecking order then it's probably the right decision.

Williamson away.
Expected due to the rumours about his PCA with Falkirk.

Banzo must be due a testimonial surely?
You would think so, ten years this September since his debut and been at the club before that.
-
Banzo extends his contract. Good news!
-
Didn't realise that Tiffoney was out of contract this summer with Livingston, strange one for them to let his contract run down like that.
Didn't really think we had a shot at signing him, but hearing that news then I think we will have a good chance. Would imagine we'd have to pay compensation though.
-
When the leagues restarted I would have been interested in someone like him, with his level of experience.
I think taking him for next season when we're stepping up a division isn't the right call.
Edited to add; The only real upside to him signing would be the benefit to Rudden in learning off of him.

Not sure if the link will work, but last night's programme is worth a listen. First section is all about Thistle
Darryl Broadfoot is a tadger, always has been and always will be.
I think what we're doing is the right thing to do, have our trophy presentation and let the players have that and their medals but don't let the SPFL be any part of it.
Once that's done we have made our point and we move on and it's done. No need to extend this ban any further than that as far as I'm concerned and it seems the club are of the same opinion.

That said, he apparently signed the pre-contract with Falkirk when they were 7 points clear, and probably expected to be playing in the Championship with them
Well yeah, Falkirk probably said he'd be going as a first team player so he'd have signed on that basis.
His experience with us would tell him that if he were to re-sign then he's be doing so as a back up. That's probably more the point I was driving at.
That point stands regardless of the league each team is playing in.
-
Williamson is maybe looking at the way the season panned out and is wondering if he can't get a regular game for us in League 2, what's his chances getting one in the Championship.

The argument that Brora shouldn't be involved in the play offs as they only played 3 games falls flat on its face when it's pointed out they had amassed the same amount of points as Brechin managed in 20 games.
Indeed, couple that with the fact they were top of the Highland League by quite a margin when it was stopped last season and it's hard to argue that they don't deserve it.
The same 3 teams that should have been involved in the playoffs last season have ended up in them again. Both Brora and Kelty Hearts deserve their shot at Brechin and whoever plays them will win I think.
Kelty beat Brechin quite comfortably in the League Cup earlier this season I think.

The turnaround since the shutdown has been unreal. I thought pre-shutdown we were pretty solid defensively but were struggling to impose ourselves in an attacking manner. The injuries we had meant we couldn't field the team we wanted, probably couldn't field the same 11 two games running at any point, we relied on Graham to get the goals and when he lost a bit of form we struggled big time.
McCall said when we came back that he had brought Graham and Rudden to play together as a two up top and that he'd only managed to get them on the park together a few times. He was clearly right in his view that they would form a good partnership, last night the link up between the two was just brilliant.
Tiffoney was the missing piece of the jigsaw. I would love to see him at Firhill next season, I can't see it unfortunately.

First time I’ve been able to do the PPV thing this year, and not bad timing.
Video quality and presentation seemed great and well worth the money to me. Well done to all involved!
I’ve seen posts on here about the camera often following a wayward bird. Didn’t catch any of that today - have they improved the service or did I just catch a break?
Thistle use a properly operated camera, not the AI cameras that other clubs have been using.
Think we trialled it for a few friendly games but dumped it before the season started properly.

I think Airdire will have a big part to play in this run in. They will still have an outside chance of winning the league if Falkirk were to either win or draw tonight so they could go into their last 2 games against Cove and Falkirk knowing two wins would get them to 38 points. They could very well go into the last game of the season 3 behind Falkirk knowing a win could put them top if we were to lose against Montrose.
They are the form team behind us, I'm just really glad we managed to beat them.

This pitch is an absolute shambles. Ball bobbling all over the place

We could do that then end up hanging on 5-4 in the 94th minute.
Was just about to say this
We could be 5-0 up with 5 mins to play and I'd still think the opposition still had a chance!
-
Bannigan and Docherty are 50/50 tonight apparently.
Would be a major loss to have neither of them, hopefully at least one can play and then maybe swap about for the Falkirk game.

Quick scout of their website shows that Marino Keith who was also a footballer back in the day is a Director there.

Morrison recently signed a contract extension taking him to summer 2022 and Mitch Megginson done likewise until summer 2024 so both would command a transfer fee.
I'm also pretty sure that Megginson has a good job outside of football and he's actually better off remaining part time. Think that's why he's at Cove in the first place, could be wrong though.
Are we allowed in for Dunfermline cup game ?

I suspect we will have had more than 500 tickets available.
Motherwell were advertising tickets for their match on the 17th of July and said they had 2,000 tickets on sale for that. That's before the date at which we're supposed to move to level 0 and the 2,000 capacity limit kicks in.
Hearts had said they had applied for more capacity than the standard 500 cap for their game v cove next week.
