Hear hear! and on the other matter put me down as a member of the get Danny L inducted camp.

Well if we continue with this use of the wrong poppy I'm off to support the Juniors. I'll not only save a tenner, see a couple of red cards & get a pie & bovril into the bargain but I'll still feel righteous enough to post on here .

and I'm happy that you're happy, Junior, and I don't mean that to sound sarcastic. You, like a few others had our support when you were on the Trust Board. Didn't question your judgement then so I won't now. Hopefully PD & Doug will serve us proud during their short stint.

I'm under the impression that inductees to the H o F are not made in any particular order. What in particular I mean by that is the most deserving didn't necessarily go in with the first batch. Those going in on the 10th induction might be just as deserving as their predecessors. What I'm not certain about is whether those not included in the recent Thistle Legends book will be considered. Danny Lennon and Joe Craig are two players notable by their absence in the book.

Agree, their work rate and attitude is spot on. Still infuriated with Paton's onefootedness but can't take anything away from his effort. It's also a pity they are both full backs and not wingbacks but that's not their fault. It just makes the system we play extra negative.

On this website? You should know not to ask

I'd love to know the logic behind this post. Got me completely baffled. Shaun's only 17 years old. Not totally convinced Fraser's ready for the 1st team but from what I've seen of the lad lately he's not far off it.

might

Just read an Ayr forum and all comments about him were positive. a few quotes

Not making excuses for Cairney, the criticism I've read on here has by and large been accurate and deserved, but the way the team is set up requires the guy to be on top of his game. He's effectively playing alongside two non tackling midfielders and that has to make his job much harder. Might be too much for Cairney to break up play, give decent distribution and still get forward into scoring positions but I'd expect him to at least do one of these decently. I don't think the lad has been fully fit for a year now. Probably not so noticeable when he was deployed out wide or when Rowson was playing well week in week out but all too obvious these days.

I thought I'd heard it all! What a weird concept.

Maybe if you could have elaborated a wee bit more re your opinion in the first place you wouldn't be getting so uptight.

Nearly always go with additional height against Morton. I suppose Grehan offers some height but I expect Maxwell to be in the squad. Actually we need defensive cover with Archie being played so given the injuries to other defenders Maxwell will possibly be needed.

a pitiful 2171

I was looking at the article from a slightly different angle. I was thinking that Ronnie G could easily have phrased things differently to limit the use of the we in the past tense. That might have deflected blame somewhat onto the parting directors even if in truth the voting arithmetic wouldn't have stacked up. Either way I assume the principal value of the article is to reassure our suppliers, business partners (Greaves, Warriors, Citroen), sponsors etc. that we're not about to go tits up.

Can't say I get the full gist of this HERE but I don't suppose they've much to lose. Seems many years late to attempt to integrate with their adopted home town but will be interesting to see how they progress.

A pity St Johnstone didn't recall Adams 5 days earlier.

He has taken note. When asked about about fast & forward McCall replied "Isn't that a control on my DVD remote?"

Most definitely. It would of course be an unselfish action and be for the greater good of Scottish football.

and their players are paying for their accommodation up north when they play Ross Co. I thought most teams travel up to Dingwall on the day of the game? And on a variation of carefulpuntgeorge's excellent post... Dundee FC administrator...."Dundee FC are appealing" SFL..."No you're not. You're one of the least appealing clubs imaginable."

Any truth in the rumour we're entering administration if programme sales don't exceed 2000?

Can you guarantee that?

Joe rather surprisingly doesn't make it into the Thistle Legends book. So probably not.

I dislike Dundee FC intensely but we're talking about the SFL here. Whatever Dundee have done, and of course they deserve punishment, doesn't come close to the damage the SFL have inflicted upon Scottish football throughout the years. To allow those numpties to pass arbitrary judgement on any member club is criminal enough. Where did the 25pts come from? Why not 24pts or 26pts, 20pts or 30pts? If the SFA weren't almost as numptyish as the SFL they would revoke the 25pts deduction and hand out their own penalty explaining the rationale behind their decision. Just because we're all happy to see Dundee punished doesn't make it right that those incompetents are allowed to hand out punishment.

In our 8 defeats we've shipped 20 goals while with our 4 wins we've only scored 5 goals. I think that's most alarming. OK, the defence has mucked up big style on occasions, most notably at Starks & Forthbank, but on the whole it's been at the other end of the park that's given us most grief. We've only scored more than one goal in a game twice in 12 attempts. Half of our defeats could have been turned into draws if we had scored a 2nd goal. In short had Buchanan been a semblance of his former self we'd probably have picked up a few draws along the way.
