Against my better judgement I have bought a season ticket this morning. Wanted to ask a question about my purchase and the bus offer and the office doesn't open til 12pm!
Classic Thistle. Plug season ticket sales then don't open the office til 12pm on home match day 1.
Office was open at 11am. I went in and was dealt with promptly.

Anyone know if it's poss to have season ticket on mobile? (like last year)
Yes. If you have renewed just use it as you did last year.

The stream is only available to international subscribers which is £12 a month ….so you will need to use a vpn when buying I suspect to show you are not in the uk
they do say video for this match is available for international subscribers
I stand corrected - the only one I could see was the £5.99 one(must be because I am in the Uk).
Hope it was as good a watch as it was in the ground! -

If you go to Dee tv and the subscription option choose monthly
When I pick the monthly option it says ‘please note there is no video coverage of matches on this package’?

There is a 3pm blackout in the UK. This has been re-instated.
The 3pm blackout was instated in England last year and Scotland chose not to utilise it. They could easily do the same again this year and have streaming blocked in only England but they haven’t.

Unless a typo I can’t understand either why away fans cheaper especially as in same stand as majority of home fans. Maybe a goodwill gesture to compensate for distance travelled?
It must have been a typo as it has been corrected now when I look at it.

This must have been a hoax or pure speculation then, unless…. it’s the home top. Nah, can’t be.
It’s on the away kit sleeve - going by the photos the club published.

No Morrison was target, however Falkirk wanted a larger fee given he was still contracted to them
And your completely wrong about Kennedy too, McCall was very keen to sign him last summer and the deal was about to be done when the Pars came in offering Rangers far more money to pay towards the loan deal that we can afford.
I’m not wrong about either, but we’ll agree to disagree, it’s a new season and time to move forward.

McAlister signed on the last day of the window and not early on. He did not spend his money wisely with Crawford agreed and with McAllister agreed. However at the time I can see why we signed McAllister and on paper it looked a good signing, although the target was Morrison not McAllister. It turned out to be a disaster of a signing because he barely played. While blame can be attached to McCall on many things - he can not be blamed for signing McAllister and knowing he was going to be injured.
Regarding the board they wrongly gambled on us receiving a large fee with Rudden when we didnt get a penny. The final decision on selling players rests on the board, they thought the Rudden money would allow other signings didnt happen. There has also been plenty of uncertainty about how skint we were - the Due diligence refusal didnt exactly set my mind at ease. Jackubiak and Allegria were barely on the radar but there was no money for anyone else (granted in my opinion he should not have wasted money on crawford or McCallister (but I see why we signed McAllsiter though it turned out to be a disastrous signing). Jackubiaks wages 90 per cent paid for by Dundee, Allegrias full wage by Rangers - why were they signed at last minute if as you argue they were our targets and could have been signed far earlier given financially we were paying little - we would have got them in far far earlier otherwise
My mistake - I was convinced that McAllister was signed around the time of the Killie game(15th) but can see he was a later signing. Calum Morrison wasn’t a target - he might have been available but the manager didn’t pursue that interest after doing his due diligence by meeting the player(in a similar way he knocked back Kai Kennedy in the summer).
I never at any point said Alegria or Jakubiak were targets, can you point to where I did?
I said the board backed the manager, the money was there. He just didn’t utilise it in the right way/spent it wrongly. There were reasons for that (such as Hibs, Aberdeen and St Mirren changing their manager and the re-introduction of nine subs in the Prem) but it wasn’t down to ‘penny pinching’ by the board as you claim(unless you can prove otherwise).

Tell you what if Jakuibiak and Allegria were anywhere near our top targets McCall deserves shot. I highly suspect neither player was any where near the top of our target list, I heard it from McCall at a meet the manager that one of our targets in January was a (striker) joining on a full time basis.
That never happened, so I’m assuming the board were a part of us not getting who we wanted in.
I don’t particularly enjoy getting loans in from, Celtic-Rangers. Mayo is probably the best I remember us having from Rangers and I think him and Holt were probably our most solid pairing at CB last season. Wouldn’t be against him coming back at all.
Kai Kennedy is highly rated at rangers but unless we are paying absolutely hee haw wage wise then it seems a waste, especially with how he get on last season in this division.
I don’t dispute that Alegria and Jakubiak were nowhere near our top targets, but they were who we ended up with.
There are a number of reasons why transfers fall through, Aberdeen and St Mirren changed their managers, a club might change their mind last minute(I think this happened with the goalie situation) and the increased subs from mid January won’t have helped.
I said before I think he was backed but just spent his money poorly. He’s been really unfortunate that both right wingers(Hastie and McAllister - both of whom were on paper good signings, both flopped.)
His signings so far this summer have given me great encouragement and long May that continue.

Why do you think he is barking up the wrong tree?
I think he was backed but didn’t spend his money wisely.
He was able to add Crawford and McAllister early in the window, two Premiership players so there was clearly money there.
There was talk in December of getting a player from Hibs(might have been evening times reporting it) and their change of manager maybe hindered that. The increase in subs in the Premiership mid-January also didn’t help as players who were bombed out and might have been good targets were suddenly back in the picture.
The Rudden situation affected the entire window and is the sole reason we were weaker, we didn’t get an appropriate reinforcement, not down to the Board ‘penny pinching’ in my opinion.

You really think it was down to McCall we got Jakubiak? It was penny pinching from the board.
The board in my opinion has escaped lightly with the fiasco of the January window. Little backing meant we were onto absolutely desperate signings.
What evidence do you have of ‘penny pinching from the board?’ - or is it just you trying to land more heat on the board given the current ownership debate?
By all means, have a pop at the board if it is deserved but I think you are really barking up the wrong tree with this one.

Is Lesser Hampden not expected to be ready for next season?
QP expect it to be ready with a capacity of around 1,200 so there will be a real scramble for tickets.

Of course if McMillan can play that attacking role then I'd probably welcome his signing. On that subject does anyone know if Tumility is available? Ticks a few boxes for me.
The talk from Kirkcaldy is that he is going down south.

Must be still part of the managers thoughts unlike Gordon and MacIver who are away.
He's not out on loan though, like everyone mentioned in that article is.

Calling our own players "dirty orange b*st*rds" doesn't wash with me.
This was after the initial confrontation and not what provoked him, but c'mon...
Hear, hear.
The supporter launching the abuse at our players(which they seem to regard as "normal behaviour" - their words, not mine) has been extremely abusive to our players after most away games this season when we haven't won. I understand that there will be frustration at not winning a game of football but some of the things this character says is so far over the line it's untrue and I'm actually surprised someone hasn't snapped with him before now. If football makes you that angry, maybe it is time to do something else with his hard earned cash and Saturday's.

Winners of 3rd v. 4th would have to play 2nd placed team first.
Yeah, I know - I think Arbroath will lose to the winners of 3rd v 4th.

Great night at Firhill tonight

That’s an interesting one. They certainly wouldn’t be allowed to use the terracing as far as I know.
After tonight’s result it’s probably irrelevant as I doubt if they are good enough to win the play offs
They would. The seating rule was abolished in 2013.
Irrelevant now though - the winners of 3rd v 4th will lose to 11th IMO

Generally loan players don't play against their parent club. For example Gordon wasn't able to play for QotS last Friday. If (and I know it's a long shot) would Rudden and Jukubiak be barred from playing if we met Dundee in the play off final?
I suspect it depends on the details of the agreement.
If Thistle played Dundee in the final of the playoff then neither Rudden or Jakubiak would be able to play. It's an SPFL rule that loan players can't play against their parent club - even if it was to be included in an agreement, it would still be against SPFL rules.

Thank you. That is a helpful answer, though not necessarily helpful to the Thistle cause! I am assuming that the same applies to Rudden, and that he could not play for us, even if Dundee were automatically relegated, and we were playing (for example) St Johnstone.
Going further, Jakubiak can play in any play off games prior to the final. If we then had to play Dundee, he could not play for either team, but if it was St Johnstone, he could play for us.
I appreciate that all of this may be irrelevant speculation!
Yes, Rudden’s registration, like all loans, is temporarily held by the loanee club until the next registration window.
Jakubiak can play in the playoffs for us in all ties, as long as we don’t face Dundee. It is an SPFL rule that players can’t play against clubs which permanently hold their registration, even though they may be temporarily playing with someone else.

Assuming their loan periods are up and their clubs are not involved in play offs, can the likes of Sena, McIver, Gordon etc take part in our play offs?
No. Their registrations remain at their loan club until 10th June when the next transfer window opens.
So even though we may say they have been released on 1st May(for example), they remain registered until the next registration window.

It is all complete nonsense - none of it is legitimately accurate.

I wasn’t suggesting that they name who has Covid. Michael suggested that Covid wasn’t to be mentioned. Covid is pretty rampant. I would guess that it will be as common as colds and flus in the not too distant future. Will we be keeping all that confidential too ?
We probably should, yes.

The ball went out of play before striking the bar so not really sure how you can say it was misjudged.
