McAvoy looks a class above most if not all in our division, at least on a par with Harry Milne. It looked serious unfortunately. It would have been possible to catch Gretna 2 if we had won yesterday and with a fit McAvoy and Milne who both add defensive assurance and creativity. It looks like 2nd is our best hope. Morton were right up for it. We eventually got on top because it’s impossible to keep up that intensity for 90 minutes. They’re streetfighters, inspired by a streetfighting manager but not a football team. Both Crawfords, who can playlooked out of place. All of their back 3 could have been booked for persistent fouling, a law the ref appeared oblivious to. We dont play well against these teams. So I’m happy with a point.

I heard that too but he simply couldn’t motivate them any longer. On Saturday they went up a gear after 25 minutes to destroy the opposition. No sign of that in previous 2 games.

The conclusion is that McCall lost the dressing room. The Graham sending off was the final straw. He has been excellent under Dools. I hope he apologised to McCall.

We played ok 1st half. But we didn’t look like scoring because the delivery into the box was shocking. Both full backs, Turner and Tiff were most culpable. These are arguably our best 4 players. McMillan in particular must learn not to take 3 touches. The number of times the ball sailed over the bar was diabolical. What’s the point of Milne busting a gut if he then crosses over the bye line? Perhaps Lawless should have moved to number 10. Mullin should have scored from the 1 well delivered pass from Stevie from Inside Left. But he was blown over by a gust of wind. McAvoy would have offered better distribution from the back. 2nd half was criminal. Dools has a helluva task with that lot. Just as well most are out of contract.

Rangers had a player called Roger Hynd who was regularly described as ‘statuesque’ as attackers ran rings round him. Sevco had 10 Roger Hynds and an extremely surly goalie as Tiff stroked it home!

Great pity for McAvoy who played very well.

Thank you! I recall that. If only Foster was still around.

If McCall and his assistants walk away now, they can hold their heads up as having carried out a fairly good job. He’ll be respected and will pick up another position. He took over a shambles from Caldwell remember. He can’t take us any further and should therefore go now without waiting to be sacked and effectively stealing a year’s salary.

His actions yesterday have surely erased this ridiculous notion.

McMillan was correctly booked but he then should have booked 3 Cove players. He eventually booked 1 guy who shouldnt have been. To Miss the corner was unbelievable but the linesman should have stepped in to assist. A complete incompetent!

We may or may not have got an equaliser but Graham’s sending off completely killed it. His sending off was an absolute disgrace. He’s let down the fans and his manager. For a senior player who is supposedly interested in management he cuts a surly, self centred figure. His actions were childish, moronic, unwarranted. I wonder if he watched the Scottish rugby team come back from adversity to win. Sheer graft and dedication to the cause. These are words that these players don’t understand. He really doesnt give a tupny. He should be dismissed immediately along with the management team who are unable to inspire. Are players fined these days for being sent off? They bloody well should be. I ask again. What is the point of Lee Hodson? He’s useless in every position!

Agreed. GRE should GTF

We played with 3 defensive mids plus Turner. No creativity from that lot. McMillan and Fitz wreaked havoc for 25 minutes but either fluffed a cross or there was nobody in the box. Surely Graham would have got on to something. We desperately needed another man in the box and if young Diack is a striker he should have been on after half an hour to help Mullen. What was the point of Hodson? The complete lack of initiative from the management was mystifying. We threw the kitchen sink for…. 4 minutes at the end. Beyond belief. Banzo had his best form when Docherty was injured or moronically suspended. Coincidence?

Why was Fitzy so bad? He’s been brilliant in the previous few games! The Pars game proved how much we depend on wee Stevie.

Should not be permitted

Several players have stepped up to the mark and suddenly become fitter. It’s amazing what a transfer window can do! But we need a defensive mid like the guy QP have from Palace. Probably a CB also because we’ve had a weakness there and I don’t fully trust Aero or Brownlie. And a number 10! Who doesn’t need one of them? If Graham plays every week like he did vs Caley we don’t need a striker. Tunji and Smith and possibly Mullin to be moved on. Don’t know how good Stanway and Lyon are because we ain’t seen them.

In the last 2 games turner has been doing what I’ve been shouting about for years. Getting a midfielder into the box! Like Martin Hardie.

Nice to see a young player debuting. McKenzie looked fast, strong and skillful in the last 20. Where did he come from?

Get the game on. Get a decent crowd in. Nothing like a wintry local derby.

Please don’t continue the canal embarrassment. Nobody gives a tupny fxck. If you’re really Jags fans, demonstrate inside the ground with fervour within the law and encourage fellow protesters not to boycott.

Thistle played ok against poor opposition in a library. The sending offs were farcical. Who the hell is that ref? Excitable fool. I felt sorry for the players who worked a good shift and the fans who paid their hard earned money. The atmosphere was non existent. Boycotts are a complete waste of time and money. Jags supporters? No! Demonstrate inside the ground by all means. But don’t watch from the canal like the OF.

Fair enough but make the noise INSIDE the ground.

It’s Scottish Cup Day! Lets forget the politics and get to Firhill to support the team. We’re getting our best players back and we should win comfortably. A wee cup runs could enable us to clear out some dross and sign some steel in January.

Is Stanway not a defensive midfielder? If so, why hasn’t he had a game?
