Muscat Jag

Played lots of games and look tired???? What the ****! It's not even November. That would be a ridiculous statement to make about part-timers never mind full-time footballers. As for Muirhead being 60% fit, well I suppose it's better than Brownlie at about 5%. What the hell is going on at Firhill. Queen's Park and Ayr were a shambles, but that was a different level of shite today. Looked little more than a disinterested pub team. Thank God Raith settled for what they had at half-time.

That's two games in a row we've been well beaten by teams that look more organised, committed and quite frankly fitter. Nowhere near good enough, totally embarrassed by the last two performances. Maybe a bit of a knee-jerk reaction but can't help thinking that our season is shot.

Wonderfully informative statement on the club's website. Single sentence with absolutely no explanation as to why the game has been rearranged. I would imagine it's to do with public transport issues on Xmas eve and that's a perfectly good reason, but why not just say that?

Muirhead and Holt both have experience at full back. Can't understand why Akinola wasn't played in the centre and one of the aforementioned moved to cover McMillan. Seemed a strange decision and ultimately cost us. Don't have much complaint about the red card, it was a poor challenge. Ref might have given a yellow but that would have been lenient.

Long 45 mins coming up. Will be delighted with a point.

Falkirk? When they dominated the corner count.

I think that's what disappointed me more than anything else about the Falkirk game. So many players with the opportunity to put in a performance and stake a claim for a regular start and it was all so half-hearted. As you say, made McCall's selection rather easy.

My impression was that they didn't bother to take minutes. They don't implicitly state that though, so it does kind of leave you guessing.

Yes, haven't been able to access the site on my phone for the past few months. Had been using it for years prior to these problems. It's a Chrome browser. Moved onto my laptop (Microsoft Edge) but that developed the same problem about a week ago. Have downloaded Chrome on my laptop and that's working for now.

At least it wasn't from a corner

You've obviously never heard me tell a joke in a pub.

I've carried out a forensic examination of both offside decisions and the report is that they were both as tight as a duck's arse. Honestly can't reach a definite conclusion after multiple freeze frames on both decisions. When it's that tight think you have to cut the linesmen some slack and just accept what they decide. Although not sure if I'd be saying that if we'd lost 2-1. The linesman for their disallowed goal took a fair time thinking about it.

Good overall performance. Feeling a bit more positive about the season ahead after that. Turner looks a different player through the middle. Muirhead and Milne both top class, even Smith was half decent. Only downside was running out of steam in the last 15 mins. Great fun winning the pens though.

Thought Turner played well, best player on the park imo. Docherty played OK, good ball to Graham to set up first goal. Smith was indeed utter mince. Have to assume he won't get near the starting line-up come the start of the league campaign. Anyone know why their manager got sent off? Seemed nothing in it.

Just given up on trying to vote in the TJF election. Spent about an hour on it, constantly being told I'm already voting in another tab.

Is Lesser Hampden not expected to be ready for next season?

For me the big problem is the size of the leagues. 10 team leagues make the current play-off system silly. If memory serves we won two more games than we lost and still could have been promoted which doesn't make a great deal of sense. Think it works well in England with the bigger divisions.

As I remember it, Sean had a long term injury that lasted about a couple of years. Not sure how accurate that is but he was out of action for ages. I do remember the recurring joke about another 6 weeks. I'm reasonably sure his contact was extended during this period when everyone thought he was a cert to be let go. When he did return he struggled initially but gradually got back to form. The last 3 months of that season I distinctly remember thinking he was playing the best football of his career at Thistle and was the best player in the team. Others might agree with that assessment but he was definitely on form. Then at the end of that season Archie released him. It was the single most baffling, inexplicable series of actions from a manager I can think of.

You sure about the Dunfermline chairman? I seem to recall them putting out a statement that they voted for the reconstruction proposal, highlighting the unfairness of what was happening to certain clubs. Maybe I'm getting mixed up and it was another club altogether. The Chairmen of QotS, Ayr and Hamilton amongst others can however go **** themselves sideways!

Not our night guys. That's the best we've played in ages. One **** up and we're punished.

Christ we don't half know how to **** it up

So ****** frustrating. Did as well for the first 60 mins and deserved to be in front. Then as per usual we shat our pants. As per usual we think defending a lead involves surrendering the midfield and falling back to our 18 yard line. There were individual errors but the real problem is we lack bottle. Nothing to lose on Friday, hopefully we grow a pair and get tore into them.

To be fair he gave plenty of dodgy decisions against ICT as well. From start to finish the guy was absolutely shocking. Where in the name of Christ do they dig these retards up from. Literally if they'd pulled a guy at random off the street with no interest in football he'd have done better.

The guys I go to the games aren't on the forum so they asked if I could submit their names as signatories to the statement. Would be grateful if you could add, Iain Carmichael Davie McGreagor Ian Liddell Thanks.

Sorry mate. I remember the incident fine. Just my attempt at humour.
