stevie inglis

I believe hearts are standing by him, He will however be hounded out of scottish football (and rightly so) He must never play for scotland again. If it was my 12 year old child he was trying to coax into sex(groom) I would take a hammer to his knees and ensure he never played football again

I would like to like clarify someone wrote to the letters page of the metro claiming to be A Cowan, Glasgow and the previous chariman of PTFC. I have not made this up

In fairness the club was up that creek when he got involved in the days of STJ

Its in the letters page of todays metro, am sure someone else could find a copy and scan it in or something

Mr Cowan wrote into todays letters page of the metro Ill paraphrase " the stadium has been police free since the start of last season, it appears the current spokesman does not know his bahookie from his elbow (what he said was "may not have been aware of the facts" )

surely if this is the case we are due money or else every club would tell a manager to resign to avoid paying compo

whas like us eh.. inclusive

gets in free ...saves 17 quid

So if someone tells a joke about ethnic minorities or disabled kids I cant get offended..

We are not yet clear of second bottom.....

Joke about childabuse sent on a email or publicly as an ambassador of the club making jokes about 15000 dead. Least we will lose our cuddly toy status.

They are not really in better taste either...

If all the clubs outwith the top two stopped cutting each others throats and just had a wage cap 500 a week in prem 250 in first etc (with money made up with bonuses) then costs would drop, prices would drop attendences would rise.

anywhere in that bracket 10 quid is fine do other jags fans think that 17 quid represents value?

8-10 quid

I work 3 stops on the tube from firhill. and maybe about 45 mins on the bus home after the game. The idea of spending my hard earned to sit in the cold and dreich and watching thistle no longer excites me. can it be long before first division football is £20 a game (if not at firhill at some grounds). There needs to be a big change in how much players are paid etc to bring costs down. then if its 10 quid to get in its no big deal!

I cant afford sky tv, but the casino in town (glassford street) has free football, big screen, free tea coffee Irn bru and coke.....Now I have never gambled in a casino in my life, but I will happily sit in one for free to watch the football on a big sofa! So before you have a go find out where I watched the game.. A casino (nothing spent) A friends house An online stream (Bad I know)

Make it specific, healthy debate and we are amongst friends here, but thanks for not having a go outright I just find it hard to justify the cost as an every week type thing, if that makes sense. I may take in the glasgow rocks (5 quid) one week, the braehead clan the next, a comedy club the next, or forego it all for a month and get a wee weekend away. Football has to compete with so many other lesiure choices and at the current prices it just cant! Hamilton V dundee united 3 weeks ago had 2000 punters so its not just me. Bring the costs down others will return! (as would I) But it wont happen

Anyone that knows me (and there are few on here) know I helped during save the jags and went before and went since The post above is good and succint...But would I really miss Partick Thistle...I doubt it as I have the chance to go now but choose not to.. Does that make me a bad person I suspect it may. I just cant muster the enthusiasm to pay the best part of 40 quid (plus a meal out as we cant go home after our day activities) to sit and watch football.. Maybe thats me getting old finding other priorities! I am rambling so apologies

Maybe we could try living within our means.... Look at groundsharing even. Not the place for it, but sell firhill and share with clyde would secure our long term future?

Sorry I meant 34 quid. In this climate (financial and also meteoroligcal) I would rather have watched a dvd at home than pay 34 quid to watch first division football. After 15-20 odd years I cant find the energy or excitement to go any more. Sad times and by last nights attendence it was not just me

1000 fans. Not tenable. Ill be honest on a horrible wet night rather than paying 35 quid for me and the bird to go to firhill we watched arsenal barca!

Gary Harkins owed ninety K!!! Ah welll

In his book "ByGone Days of Yore"(1990), The Rev. G A McCracken states that in 1912~1913 donations from prominent people including the Tory Mp Bonar law and the proceedings from a Glasgow Rangers VS Partick Thistle football match were used to erect a new Grand Orange Order hall at Cathedral street and North Fredrick street in Glasgow on 31st May 1913. Changed days eh
