    So to be clear they should have been less transparent? Glad we’ve cleared that one up.

    No to be clear! You cannot argue and fight tooth and nail to keep the process behind closed doors and then decide just because you won that it is ok to blow your own trumpet. They cannot have it both ways, they wanted secrecy they got that wish. Now if they disclose everything along with all the evidence then go for it full transparency, not just the bits the SPFL want you to see because it makes them look good.

    So does “drawing a line under it” mean consenting to the judgment being made public? Or does it mean withholding consent to it being made public?

    It can’t be neither.

     

    Well given they wanted it all to be done hush hush behind closed doors in the first place instead of being played out in public yes, they should have declined. They don't have the right once again to move the goalposts to crow about it like the schoolyard bully just because they won. This does nobody any good and once again sticks the knife in on member clubs they are there to supposedly represent and protect. Had they lost you would not even be hearing about this now!

    So what should the SPFL have done... *not* consented to disclosure of the judgment?

     

    They should have drawn a line under it to protect all member clubs and moved on, they seem to want to prolong and stick the boot in at every opportunity to Hearts & Thistle.

    We have 2 options 

    A - Allow 3BC to keep ownership of the club 

    B - Fans snatch it back

     

    There is no other option 

    I don't like either because even if the fans take control, they are wet willies and they showed that by welcoming Low back with open arms after promising she would be nowhere near the club. No doubt she will still be there after fans seize control and the idiots will probably build her a statue. Her latest embarrassment as seen over on P&B is that she is assisting the young fans with a banner to say Scottish Football is Corrupt, she is an embarrassment!

    Oh dry up, you tiresome gammon.

    Thistle showing solidarity with a cause isn't a bad thing.  It's the club using its position of visibility and privilege in the public eye to provide support and exposure to people or organisations that need it.  Having the rainbow flag on the shirt last season was no different to us giving over shirt space to the Beatson a couple of years back, or having a pink breast cancer ribbon front and centre of the away kit a couple of years before it.  We're not the first club to do it, we won't be the last, thankfully.

    Frankly, I wish we'd do more in this vein. When we have the ugly sisters and their venal tribalism and sniping dominating the city, anything which makes us stand out above that as better members of the community should be applauded.   Even on a basic publicity level, do you honestly think we'd have had all the folk at the Women's World Cup plugging our away shirt last summer if it was just plain white?  We probably sold a couple hundred more shirts than we would have previously because we had Eilidh Barbour, Hope Solo et al plugging it on their social media accounts.

    It's 2020.  The only mindset that sees a club doing something to support the communities that support it and surround it is one that belongs in the 1970s along with repeats of Mind Your Language and Bernard Manning.  

     

    Tiresome gammon eh? Resorting to racial slurs now just to try get your point across tut tut.

    It is losers like you that cause so much hate and divide for these causes because you single them out as needing special attention whilst ramming it down everyone's throats. All these people want is equality not your pity or the club using them as a marketing vehicle to sell more strips as you pointed out.

    Nothing wrong with supporting the community i have never said there was, but this constant pish of being seeing as martyrs for the cause is tiresome. So get on your bike and get that helmet camera on so you can post videos online of drivers for that feeling of being so almighty.

    but completely appropriate for an idiot who continually rubbishes some of PTFC more 'woke' endeavors with regards shirt design. Drivel like this has to be called out.

    my opinion of course

    woke endeavors haha you really are a snowflake, probably chowing down on your vegan pie in rage

    I just saw a picture of what is supposed to be the away top. I won't share in case it's bollox, but think of the crap grey away top in the first season on the Premiership 2013/14 and it's close 

    Just hope it doesn't have any bleeding heart causes or PC pish on it

    Personally I think we are in for a severe kick in the baws. But... **** em. Even if we go down, let's go down in spectacular style. In flames and take a few scumbags with us. Scottish football is ****** anyway and just isnt worth following anymore. Particularly when you have two absolute donkeys in (Cockwomble)Doncaster and Maxwell running it.

    I agree and will be interested to see if Maxwell has the balls to turn up for the legends v Maryhill game.

  9. See if Thistle win, will you do the Honorable thing and resign from the forum @Woodstock Jag? Or will you sit and rightly take any pelters that come your way while still arguing you know best? Honestly the Javeajag and Jordanhill Jag spats were at least funny at times, your know it all attitude is just simply boring.

  10. Looks like they are trying to get the lawyer teams working on 2 things at the same time to try and divide and conquer. I say it is now time to abandon the SFA arbitration and slap an injunction in on the start of the season. Time to burn this shithole to the ground and take as many down with us as we can.

    I see Lachlan Cameron of Ayr United is making what I think are very good points about the need for a commissioner to remove all the self interest from Scottish football.

    He then unbelievably goes on to confirm that he will be providing financial support to Dundee United etc.

    :blink:

    Quite simply that guy is a tit with a very obvious axe to grind

    But would they come to Thistle  if not playing regularly?

    Think both have made their thoughts clear that they would be back in a heartbeat if offered the chance

    Unfortunately we simply cannot afford anything on bir part players now because of nostalgia.  Neither did anything much the last couple of seasons and while we could have maybe had them in the scenario you describe in the championship we simply cannot afford them in league one

    Yes but if they are willing to accept the peanuts on offer in the lowland league a player who was comfortable in the premiership in Erskine and a player suitable for Championship lower end now in Doolan i think it is worth the gamble as backup.
