Nobody forces you small group to act like bawling weans, either.

Jesus And Mary Chain, this thread needs to die.

This is f*cking embarrassing.

Keep yourself to less than two syllables, no need to get taxed.

Sunday evening and the silence from the club over on the official website is deafening. I guess we're just to assume everything is A-OK and yesterday's game wasn't one to be ashamed of.

I'm sure that caller to Off The Ball was correct, there is a vast media conspiracy against Rangers in Scotland.

Half of those assists coming against Hamilton Academical, whilst eight matches went by in the interim without any. Why the love in for someone who has just publicly stated he doesn't want to be at our club anymore? Jesus Weeping Christ.

Dark times indeed.

Clean slate in the Championship next season then?

We just need one stand labelled 'Mugs', because that's how those people wearing Thistle shirts treated all the fans yesterday. Having a wee laugh and a joke after conceding the penalty? Seaborne immediately taking off his CAPTAIN'S ARMBAND because he thought he'd done enough to get sent off? Go watch the highlights and try to defend the team after the third Ross County goal. You want to support them feel free - they're laughing at you.

So, should the players decide who the next manager will be then?

The sad fact is, there is no sense at all in building a new stand at Firhill. Even the PropCo plans of the recent past would be a bad idea, putting in flats as well as a small stand. This kind of piecemeal building will degrade the overall value of the land. It's already happened with the student flats being built. Yesterday we were sitting in a stadium around three quarters empty. I don't think anything will change the downward gradient of attendances. Scottish football needs to take a serious look at itself, and forget the halcyon days of yore when people didn't own televisions and there were no other options for entertainment. A small, multipurpose stadium with an artificial all-weather pitch is what's needed. A centre that can host multiple sports to be of benefit to the community - football, rugby, hockey, whatever, maybe a swimming pool, etc. Some place that will be used all the time, all the year round. A grandstand with five thousand seats inside an indoor arena perhaps.

Couldn't be worse than yesterday.

What was the last game he had any effect on? And I don't mean receiving the ball and immediately being dispossessed, again and again and again? Because that's what I've come to expect from Lawless.

I agree with this. The games where he's put in an anonymous performance versus the games where he's been effective must be in the ration of 10 to 1.

I sit through garbage like that and by the time I get home I learn one of the players has tweeted "time for a change of scenery"? F**k 'em.

This bunch of delicate wee flowers need a size twelve boot up the erse.

Also they horsed us today, three going on five goals to one.

People are constantly raging when Archibald changes the team?

Bollocks to that.

Are you saying that the players Archibald signed aren't good enough? Or are you saying the players he signed are being mismanaged by Archibald?

Hmmm ...

I'm not panicking, I'm angry. It's not the end of the world getting relegated, God knows we've all been though it enough. It won't be the End Times if we're playing Championship football next season. But I will not pay money to watch footballers who are not interested in playing for Partick Thistle. In my opinion that's what we got today. That shower are lucky Firhill isn't laid out the way it once was, as they would have had a huge crowd giving them dogs abuse as they scuttled back to the changing rooms.

Was anyone at the player's zone with their kids after the match? It would have been interesting to find out the attitude of the players who attended.

I am, as I always have been, for Archibald to stay as manager. I think there is something terribly wrong at the club at the moment. But I don't want to support the club if we're just going to chuck Archibald when things look grim. He took us up and kept us up. I laughed at pathetic St Mirren fans who wanted Danny Lennon out, when that worked so well for them. As I've posted repeatedly, if the players no longer want to play for him they can go*, and we can start again with people with the desire to be at Firhill. *And snide comments such as the one posted by Steve Lawless on social media earlier indicate this is the case
