    not sure but pretty sure I have 100% win rate every time I start vs Ayr Utd match thread so was standing down until the play offs.

    That said I could be talking bollocks.

    As for this thread, a day early, a debutant starting it and getting called Partick.  @Dick Dastardly will be breaking out in hives 😂

    As for match itself going for 1-0 to Storm Kathleen.

    Don’t worry. I won’t be looking anywhere near this thread until 5 minutes before ko 

    Drat !

    This week and last week, not so many new posts on any topic.

    Is that because most people expect us just to qualify for the playoffs (again) and then fail to win promotion (again)? Or is there some other reason?

    Of course, people may have lives outwith the forum!

    I don't (well, not so much!).

    We won the last few games. This place is far more lively on the back of a defeat or 3.

    Would you rotate the normal first 11 if all available? Unfortunately most of the rest of the squad assembled aren’t good enough as first choice

    Taking a lead from Rugby, and South Africa, don’t start their strongest 15, but make sure that they are on at the end when the other team tires or has weaker players on, it might be worth an experiment. Admittedly they do have more subs available in rugby and the subs are probably closer to the first choice, but it might be interesting to know what Fitz,Stevie and BBG could do coming on together after 50 or 60 minutes

    Indeed, I think we’d all like to see James succeed at Firhill. Perhaps still needs to work on the physical side of the game, and pressing and shutting down when we don’t have possession. But there’s a talent there to be nurtured. He’s got a great touch and an eye for goal. Perhaps our close season transfer activity may create more of a midfield balance to accommodate his potential 

    Might be a step too far for James when we are in the Premiership next season 

    edit to add …. Perhaps we could loan him to United or Aberdeen for a season in the Championship to see how he gets on.

    Arbroath had a few dangerous attacks early on, and Mitchell made a good save. Thistle gradually got on top. Some great Lawless McMillan moves, and McBeth again outstanding at the back.

    Excellent run and shot from Fitzy for the goal, but celebration seemed a bit delayed. Were there some deflections along the way?

    1-0 at halftime is fair reflection of the play. Game certainly not over yet. Would like to see another goal or three.

    Why stop at 3 ?

    Thought McInroy, Robinson, MC Beth, were outstanding today, for someone who was playing Junior football 2/ 3 months ago MC Beth has been a real find,  one of Doolans best.. How many others are out there...???????

    I think you just mentioned McInroy and Robinson in your own post 🤷‍♂️

    With the championship likely to be stronger next year with Falkirk coming up is anyone else becoming very worried about fighting relegation next year

    Not if we are relegated this year

    Never understood spending some of the budget on Alston, Macdonald and Williamson.  Waste of money. We then sign a goalie as cover they obviously dont rate the lad McCready. Reminds me of Archies recruitment. 

    I think it better that Mason gets some game time with Spartans to develop rather than sitting on the bench for us. He is one that might still come through and is contracted to 2025. For next year I would like to see Mason and another up and coming keeper backing up one experienced keeper and not any of the current batch who are proven to be not good enough.

    I didn’t know that Mason’s dad won a Super Bowl for the Patriots in 2001.
