If that is to be believed, it debunks the rumours of any financial problems from the previous board
-
Probably fell asleep

Hypothetically speaking, would it be sexist if I were to say that I prefer the netball to the football as the players have better legs ? (Just a question, not my actual belief)
-
I don't think that any Thistle board ever planned to make us unsuccessful. Investors will want their money back and if you read through the full thread, lots of people have ideas about how it could be done and being successful on the park is just one idea.
-
I'm not going back through 62 pages, but yes some of the comments have been correct, but there has also been a lot of crap too.
-
A lot of people have said that they have been told a lot of things on this thread. How many of them are fact is debatable
-
I think he resigned rather than being booted out, but why not blame the board who have only been in place for 4 days.

Lets go Jags ! -
Sadly not the one show host. Former Bradford striker is now listed on the squad page and signed a deal today https://ptfc.co.uk/ptfc-team/alex-jones/

Partick Thistle Vs Airdrieonians -League Cup

Much as I think that this is how GC would like to start, with another game on Tuesday, I don't see him starting both Miller and Mansell. More likely we will play one up front today with the other coming on after an hour, and the reverse on Tuesday As said, Slater is injured, so maybe Penrice starting in midfield, and Cardel somewhere -
With injuries, I'm not sure there is much choice

That would only be for 1 season. The Change of Ownership has the potential to change the entire philosophy for the foreseeable future, while the ongoing negotiations are a distraction from building a team for this season.
-
I can’t believe I’ve just put a like on a TLB post, but that sums up the risk for me. I have never felt so negative going into a new season.

I am not ITK, but I strongly suspect it was expected

If I read that right, what you are saying is that the sherrifs delivering the letter is BAU ?
-
When a posting in this thread starts with "a friend of mine .... has just told me ...." I take the rest of the sentence with a pinch of salt
-
Have they. If you read the statement, the Jags Trust do not mention any direct contact with Lee/Conway, so this has to be seen as their opinion of what the business model might be. Until we have heard directly from the protagonists, I will keep an open mind on what their motives might be. We still have no facts, just rumours and speculation.
-
Perhaps Mr Lee is a secret Clyde supporter and just wants to buy us to bring us down (It's as valid as any other suggestion that has been put forward)
-
I don't recall any players ever moving between Arsenal and ICT

This reminds me. Someone once said "If you are a billionaire and want to become a millionaire, buy a football club"
-
That has not been the case for any other club changing ownership. Hibs didn't have a problem and Rangers have signed players while the ownership changed on a weekly basis. Why do you think that might be the case ? As others have said, getting players to commit to us may be more of an issue.
-
You are not alone, but since I used to live on Maxwell Ave, perhaps it's something in the Westerton water
-
We don’t want that. Who would we moan about when things are going bad. We can’t blame the board, because that is us and we can’t blame the manager that we appointed. What a nightmare !
-
Still Plenty Time or Time to be concerned
Dick Dastardly replied to Paukea's topic in Main Jags forum
Short term, certainly in terms of this transfer window, I’ve moved from slightly concerned to very worried. I think it is clear that until the off field shenanigans are resolved, the recruitment is going to suffer. Does GC even know if he will have a job ? While the first 11 looks fine, the squad as a whole looks weaker than I’d like and I can’t see Miller/Mansell getting us promoted without some help
