  1. Currently renting but looking to buy a house. Got 2 options of one being in Cathcart (terrace house) v Clarkston (bungalow type). We currently live in Cathcart, no kids yet but happening, and I can't decide where to go especially as you have the schools of East Ren brainwashing now I'm on the wrong side of 35+. Anyone got experience of living in either and with views on house values? For Cathcart my main issue is would you get money back after say 5 years and move to suburbia. The Cathcart property is better and I know we'll never get as good a house. It's an interesting area as there are some cracking houses there. Or by 4/5 years time will suburbia be priced out as prices do look to be in a funny place right now. Never bought a place before hence my obvious inexperience and inability to decide.
  2. It's all about opinions as I would have Doolan as the first name on the team sheet every time. Love his attitude, professionalism and his play. Great touch. Hold up play and the goals he scores. As for the rest of the team I would guess it would be the big Belgian to come in for Seabourne and I would keep the rest of the players who did well against Dundee United.
  3. I'm a season ticket holder and I think from it I effectively get 5 free home games per season plus discounts for hospitality when offers are ran. This is good but more importantly Archie knows his budget before season with the money up front. As per marketing. We have a small budget. Best and cheapest marketing is word of mouth and social media so we can all do our bit.
  4. The benefit they have is huge fan base, big sponsorship deals and ability to milk corporate clients. Scottish football would have to do something different that fits in with the situation we have.
  5. Let's hope we can sponsor a full kit and boots. If it's voting time I vote to sponsor Jordan McMillan Away strip.
  6. Aargh. Missed this. Only 10 mins away for me to see.
  7. If we raise one strip then Osman away for me.
  8. The Shed is pre-game only.
  9. I signed up and can login no problem whatsoever.
  10. I've seen live games at Cleveland and NY Jets in the past but prefer watching it in a bar. Currently on holiday in America and love the tv presentation and atmosphere in bars. Watched Patriots get pumped and it was all 'Brady is finished' next game they won and he's a hero.
  11. Good work WillJag. Happy for you to be the central contact. Bank transfer or PayPal works for me.
  12. Here's the link for other clubs who want a similar experience. http://community.ptfc.co.uk/activities/matchday_coaching_experience
  13. £170 already. Can we make 50% of money to be raised before midnight?
  14. RE: Jackie Huaband Stand. It could possibly be improved by removing seats. Replacing with new larger seats spaced out more for comfort. The quality then improves and capacity decreases.
  15. In terms of stadium I'd handle us moving or total redevelopment. Expectations and tastes have changed massively over past couple decades and I feel Scottish football is full of angry old men. Stadiums should be generating revenue all week and also before and after games as part of a whole package. I want a seat I can be comfortable in without the seat in front of me digging into my knees. I want a decent choice of beer in the supporters bar, think Aitken Suite is much improved after changes. I want a decent choice of food instead of old pie and bovril. I want protection from the elements and warm water in toilet sinks with space in the concourse. The above is different from others but you need to cater for different people now, families, singers and more padionate fans, hand clappers like me etc. A modern stadium would help this.
  16. "Splash the cash"???? Where will the cash come from?
  17. For Thistle this season the plan is to avoid relegation. It's that simple. Hopefully avoiding the play off while playing decent football. Long term in terms of youth development it's to produce more players from youth system to play in the first team and hopefully sell to generate money for the club ala Hamilton and Dundee United. We have started from almost nothing and the work by Gerry Britton, Scott Allison and others with the Weir money is very impressive. Follow Scott on twitter and read the Thistle Weir updates and it will put you in a better mood. We are doing well here. Money wise the club is going in the right direction. We have our debts under control and have been breaking even at the least for the past 2 or 3 years. That should be applauded. Fans are over emotional and want want to spend spend spend but to keep the club safe we need to be boring and spend only what we have. We are a small club. We don't have a sugar daddy. These are the facts. Here I'm satisfied again. The only way we get more money is more season tickets sold but it seems some people want any excuse to stay away and criticise the club which I don't understand. It's a culture of being wronged and being offended with limited justification. On the pitch Ian McCall got us moving. Jackie MacNamara took us to another level and the promotion season which Archie took us over the line was a joy to behold including my first ever cup final. Last season was again an exciting season with a lot of plaudits, ropey home results but I was entertained. This season we've had mixed results but I don't understand the negativity. Ross County and ICT were great games. I fear with the plethora of games on tv people expect Barca, Arsenal or PSG. Expectations are way above of what is reasonable. Next steps? Staying in the top league and not be Rangers, Hearts or Hibs. Getting the youth into the team but that will take a good few years yet. Getting more fans involved so instead of them ranting and raving they take that passion and use their skills to help the club. After this we can look at grandiose schemes of stadium developments, European adventures and 5000+ season ticket holders and the like.
  18. I'm a season ticket holder and signed up for the enhanced Tag membership and no probs with the downloaded programmes. Think it's a must have for Nomads to sign home to. Helps me as I buy one at a game and usually leave it somewhere so can read at home or on phone before game.
  19. If it's weekend fixture would like Hearts or Hibs away. If midweek would like Rangers home or away.
  20. Watching BBC highlights at Celtic v Hearts they said it's only the 2nd time we've beaten St Mirren at home in 32 years. What a statistic if true.
  21. If you're a Nomad you can also help the club via Centenary Fund.
  22. It was a crap result but calm down. Great performances v Ross County and ICT. Frustrating v Hamilton. Poor v St Mitten. Still got good players and a decent if inconsistent team. Still enjoying it far more than football from a few years ago.
  23. Voted No this morning. My wife has unfortunately went to hospital last night so arranging an emergency proxy vote.
  24. If you're still undecided watch this speech by Gordon Brown Gordon Brown's Better Together speech the day bef…:
