Who am I to argue with the mighty Dumfries and Galloway Standard?
I'm more than willing AFK to bow to your version of events, at least we can now that say that a Jags keeper holds the record for saving the most re-taken penalty.
BTW were you aware of this or just employing sleuthing skills?
I’ve been trying for years to have this ‘story’ confirmed.
I read many years ago that we held the record for the most re-taken penalty kick.
Evidently it took place in 1945 against Killie ( if my memory is correct) and we had to re-take the penalty 5 times, I.e. taking it six times in all. In true Jags tradition when the kick was deemed to be legal, we missed it!!
It’s interesting that after yesterday’s game McCall has said “Dario Zanatta will be a very big player for Partick Thistle”. So I wouldn’t think he’ll be off anytime soon.
I do try to let ‘bounce off” as you say, but sometimes , especially when you hear it 500 hundred miles south of Glasgow, not only does your heart sink and you feel embarrassed about your home city but it also screws up your day!
I’m in the the City of Winchester this evening. I held open the door for a couple who were leaving the same accommodation into which I was entering. On hearing his accent I said “ Where is home for you”?
Him “Clydebank you?”
Me “Maryhill”
Him “ Celtic”?
Me “No”
Him “ F Off”
Him “Thistle”?
Me “Yep”
Him “ F Off”
In less than a month our calendar will show the year 2020, not for some methinks. As I type this I feel embarrassed and sick.
