  1. why did fletcher end up falling out, did he spit the dummy because he was left out of the squad?
  2. Levein should kiss and make up with Fletcher we don't have many strikers scoring goals at such a high level.
  3. probably better asking on a hibernian forum, but from my limited knowledge he was a promising talent who has never fulfilled the potential he appeared to have, I remember thinking he may have went on to play in the premiership or with scotland regularly. Disappointing with celtic, returned to hibs, trouble maker in edinburgh and could be healthy for him to get a move abroad away from the "goldfish bowl" of his home town. he may do ok i dont imagine the standard of the mls being too much higher than the spl if higher at all, so he'd get you goals im sure.
  4. Quite simply the best moment of my life. Never felt ecstasy like it, probably never will. I'm still relatively young and dont have kids etc so maybe that will eclipse it later in life, but so fae that's been the best moment of my life!!
  5. I think we'll all flock to see Thistle in our droves with our new management team.
  6. Aye I think we got beat 1-0, but if it hadn't been for Cairns would have been 10-0. I thought he played a lot more games than that? Remember we signed him from Gala Fairydean did we not? Really good keeper who didn't let his small stature stand in the way of being brilliant!
  7. Apparently he was delighted Raith freed him, he hated it there. Apparently it was roxy music to his ears. Seriously though,like everyone else, I'd take Tade but doubt we can afford him. Like a previous poster said, get our squad re-signed, then look at additions.
  8. Always flattered to deceive, had moments where he looked a player, and moments when he looked garbo. Just another Kevin McKinlay
  9. Whyte and Britton had a bit of a mare no-one can deny that, but they took over an appallingly bad shambles left by Gerry Collins, McNamara is taking over a reasonably settled young team, McNamara is going to be the manager instead of the co-op that W&B had, so apart from their similar level of experience and age, there is a bit of difference. There's no guarentee an experienced manager will bring success. Look down south, Eddie Howe at Bournemouth, look how well he did aged 32 or something. Then there's the guy at MK Dons, can't remember his name, don't even know that he's 30 yet, got them in play offs. I'm quietly confident McNamara will be a good appointment for us, and the first step into a successful management career. Edited to add: anyone else had their armchair celtic fan friends already asking to come along to odd game next season to "support wee jackie" etc. All for that if it gets few extra bums on seat some weeks. He seems very well thought of by the tic didn't know he was so popular.
  10. Akins is one of the worst football players I have ever seen in a Thistle jersey. He honestly sometimes had the look of a man who did not know what sport he was supposed to be playing. McChrystal was baws, but if he had stuck to the basics he could have been a better player. Morrow I didn't see enough of to make a judgement, remember him in a home league game to St Johnstone we beat them 2-0 he played quite well. He was on loan and quite clearly couldn't be arsed.
  11. Gutted for Rowser hope you and your family are ok davie
  12. I always thought it was panic in the streets of carlisle, dublin dundee humberside? i could and probably am wrong!
  13. Can see us winning today, away from the quagmire of Firhill, and the with the jags equivalent to the holy trinity of law best charlton, we've got erskine doolan grehan. 2-0 jags.
  14. Rowson for me, followed closely by Doolan and Fox.
  15. Glad Archie's signed up, him and Wullie will be as solid as a rock for our title winning season next year!
  16. McCall came in at a difficult time, and steadied the ship. A brief flirt with promotion when we finished runners up to St Johnstone, who were no great shakes themselves that season and pretty much drew games to win the league. That season was very much the Gary Harkins show. Other than that, pretty average on field displays, few highlights here and there but nothing special. But I'm hoping in a few years we'll look back and truly appreciate McCall's tenure with there hopefully being some good youngsters in the team.
  17. yeah he's looked steady enough, especially if robbo/archie leave would be good to hold onto him.
  18. Think of the damage you could have done on Toff's with that sigesige
  19. Frightened Rabbit, winter of mixed drinks. just a brilliant album by a brilliant band if u ask me!
  20. this is all good stuff. im not on the forum that much, but im ascertaining from this mans limitless set of replica strips and ideas for sporting reform that he's an alter ego/comedian on the forum? all good stuff though
  21. I'm glad you've come up with that, I've lost so much sleep last few years thinking about it
  22. Poor performance, County dominated possession we couldn't get out the bit. Barrowman held off Balatoni and Archie for fun, allowed them to keep the ball comfortably in our half. Doolan worked hard with what little service he had. Cairney and Rowser were poor for me, thought Boyle played well, some cracking last ditch tackles. McNamara was static, didn't take his hands out his pockets all day, didn't stop leaning on the dugout. Not animated enough or offering encouragement. Why was there a spell of Cairney playing left wing and Erskine playing centre mid?
  23. Heard two guys speaking behind me today saying Lambie told them McCall is in the running for McCoist's assistant as McDowall is going to Kilmarnock! hmmmmm
  24. Can't comment on all the bullying speculation and locking himself in an office, but the youth team thing im sure isnt true. im sure he brought through a few, young mcginn who's at watford now is the only that springs to mind at the minute. lambie is hero worshipped on here, and yet he never paid any attention to our youth system. May sound controversial, yeh he was a legend for us, but a few of thistles current problems rest with the regime 10 years ago management included, for not thinking ahead and ploughing money at journeymen instead of youth coaches.
