  1. Its highly unlikely that there were not ongoing discussions between the Board & tjf over a period of time and up to now the Board have been cut a Great deal of slack by tjf & its well known that I viewed the relationship as far too cosy - between the majority shareholder & the Board tjf have therefore a duty to express the concerns of there members & wider fan base in public- if they are not getting the responses in private - otherwise they will be accused of not taking action The response from the Club bearing in mind multiple issues was - shall we say surprising - this is the first time since Fan Ownership tjf have rebuked the Club in public - they ( on behalf of the Fans ) own the Club - the Directors are voted in by tjf - they are not there beyond running the Club for the Shareholder & when the Shareholder raises issues - you listen It should have never have gotten to this - the issues raised had nothing to do with the Sporting Directors Accident & a lot to do on the direction of travel of the Club - so the two are not related ( the SD accident should not be used to deflect away from the issues raised by tjf ) As for tjf Board Member - he was stepping down next week - his resignation was insignificant to the large picture
  2. So in essence your saying - we stick with what we have because there isn't an alternative ? Fan Ownership is just that - we have an Owner - No different from any other Club It does not mean "leadership by community " - and your correct - None of our Fan Base have ever run a Football Club ( and neither had our Board ) but there are lots who have run Businesses Its an urban myth that we are stuck with some sort of Status Quo because of "Fan Ownership" And we don't have an "elected board" we have two elected Board Members out of a Board of Seven
  3. Where did it state the Sporting Director looks after the Woman's Team ?
  4. Tom Hosie reveals his close family ties to the SAS ( exclusive on WeareThistle ) 😃
  5. you employ people at that level for there contacts & football knowledge - you should be pretty much ready to hit the Ground Running and have a good idea of who is worth speaking to
  6. Mat Alan Nixon has been pretty spot on ref his info - a very good & Old Skool Sports Journo I'm inclined to believe his list ( not commenting on the actual list btw) Jim
  7. He will appiont them because he is out of his depth and will go along with whatever he thinks will be popular - he doesnt have contacts in Scottish Football to put forward an alternative - the “ inner circle” who influence all Club decisions are pushing for Graham - he will get the job The SD will hide behind recruitment / academy & eventually get involved in the Woman's Team
  8. Look they are getting the job Three reasons It means the SD doesn't need to change anything and means no new faces which might not work out and he gets blamed The status quo at PTFC remains same wee gang on multiple levels and we give the job to a Thistle Legend which is the Thistle Way and lets face it - status quo is worth the mediocrity to those who influence things at PTFC
  9. So in short - nothing much changed after they took over - dools would have probs done about the same
  10. We were 6 points clear in 4th - finished 2 points clear last day of the Season with RR running us close on what basis is that progress that he should get the job ? His performance as Manager is mediocre - so appionting him as a “legend” simple confirms the mediocrity of our ambitions and the over- riding desire to maintain the Status Quo As for a few years of rebuilding - if thats the case - what has been going on for the last 2 Seasons ?
  11. Same could be argued for McCall lots of key players missing - but we still sacked him we were not at the Races against Livvy - either Game
  12. Took over 6 points clear - finished 2 points clear by the Skin of our teeth playoffs - poor against Ayr at Firhill - Great against them at Somerset - not at the races against Livvy But he is a great guy so give him the Job - what he did as a Player - with PTWFC etc etc - his track record as manager is underwhelming but he will get the job -mediocrity is the Thistle way
  13. He has been hawking his position to be Manager all week in PTFC Pravda ( the Herald) tonight post match interview was just a different angle
  14. But he made it very very clear in an interview that he was focused on the interim and the FT Role was not something he had really considered - now its - if I don't get it I Leave ?
