  1. https://news.stv.tv/sport/partick-thistle-say-alcohol-trial-went-well-as-ayr-united-withdraw-application I'm torn here. Part of me thinks that as a fan owned club this initiative is one of those rare issues that requires a more honest detailed account. Then again I just suppose for operational/commercial reasons the results are sensitive. My own opinion is if its cost effective then , why not? In principle I certainly have no objections. I feel tho' in practice there would have to be some sort of pre match entertainment dovetailed into this to attract an early visitation of Jags fans. That in turn may only be practical and/or viable at larger attended fixtures. The cynic in me suggests these fixtures would be the very ones to attract an alcohol ban.
  2. Like most games, I suppose, good and bad points. There's still an element of being light-weighted in midfield and as said we lacked a cutting edge thru much of the game. Chalmers is a tad too one footed for a central attacking role, certainly in a scoring capacity. We do tho' attempt to play a structured game, but with enough variability and fluidity to suggest a decent season ahead. I reckon the way our fullbacks play (orthodox in defence, central in midfield after crossing the half way line) could be an effective ploy. MacKenzie looks like he could become a positive substitute as opposed to coming on to replace the injured. And I agree with the positives re Young Horn. Wilson said post match that he's for taking the League Cup seriously. But he also refers to last night as "pre-season". Not really a criticism as we all kinda know where he's coming from. It does tho' highlight a difficulty in progressing when you target the League KO as the season beginning proper. Sense it makes the QoS fixture all the more difficult a game.
  3. Received my physical ST today. Came as quite a surprise as I had already received identical 2 weeks ago.πŸ˜€
  4. You do raise a very good point. To counter, my hope would be in an increased fluidity within the team. For instance full backs moving forward into more central positions. Cammy Logan has shown signs of doing just that. Further I get the impression that Wilson is more pragmatic as a coach and will change things during a game as and when required without necessarily waiting for second half substitutions to do so. Admittedly I'm trying to be a wee bit glass half full.
  5. More or less a complete reversal from last season's fixture against them. Goalless at half time then scoring six after the break.
  6. Personally I found the stewarding rather heavy handed https://legionmagazine.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/04/owens1.jpg
  7. It means we can sell vastly overpriced, poor quality beers/lagers in flimsy plastic pint/half pint containers from 5pm till 45 minutes before KO, in a non seated area hidden from the pitch. Oh! and a glass of wine for the ladies πŸ™‚
  8. Just for comparison Watt's recent goals/assists stats are roughly 60/40%. Graham's with us were 80/20%. Significantly different, tho' I don't myself know if that is in fact significantπŸ™‚.
  9. I was very impressed by his work rate the other season when he was at Tannadice. Also I think as an attacker he's reasonably versatile. Guess both those attributes could be of importance. I doubt you could ever call Brian Graham versatile as an attacker and on a few occasions when Graham wasn't available I rarely thought his replacement exactly knocked his pan out.
  10. Aye but we only played 22 league games that season.
