  1. Just adding presume it is Kieran Ngwenya - we were previous linked but never quite completed the signing.
  2. McInroy would definitely be a decent signing Also presume same left back linked a few months ago.
  3. Have to say we were out battled most of today, seemed quite happy to sit back deep. Didn’t think anyone was particularly impressive. Wasiri looks very raw, some good battles but some mistakes too. Lyon was probably the only one who impressed and he was only on the park a short period of time. Extremely average but it’s early days yet. We probably need another 2/3 bodies in before season starts. Also, I may be wrong but pretty sure Ben’s top said Staway instead of Stanway…
  4. Sold out in every size over xl, next delivery late July. Quite intrigued if we have sold loads or just initial stocks were low.
  5. Not sure if it applies to our level but remember reading somewhere clubs take between 7.5%-10% on average dependent on their agreements. I think Liverpool are the exception with 20% from Nike. So in really probably talking £5 per shirt... so not much
  6. I wonder if the club would consider package tickets a bit further down the line. Yes I understand season tickets are there, or individual game basis but not everyone is in a position to afford a season ticket or attend every game. I just wonder if they were to sell a 10 game bundle at say £200, its guaranteed income for the club that they might otherwise miss out on. Could also add 5 game bundle for £100. The incentive would be saving a little but making that commitment help the club with money upfront. Personally with work commitments I can't attend every week and would happily pay for a 10 match bundle which credits me 10 matches throughout the season.
  7. Unfortunately she was at the Ayr away playoff sitting not too far from me. Don't think she will be welcome back anytime soon
  8. We would have earned almost £1million more finishing 12th in top division as opposed to 4th in our league. I've attached this season's prize money to show how much it has cost us. Firstly by drawing on the final day instead of securing 2nd place it cost us £180k. Secondly by missing out on promotion, even if we win next season's championship we would still earn some £600k less than the team coming down. I would say we are looking at a budget of around £400-500k for next season looking at these numbers; and that includes operational costs. Whereas last season with the loss of £280k it would have been closer to £800-900k if my maths are right. So your talking budget being at least halved. *Edited to take into account sponsorships etc income
  9. Honestly, Tiff leaving is a blow, but compared to making a loss of £280k its nothing. Its going to take a huge rallying effort to make up for this loss. Would actually quite like to see a few of the younger plays involved next season; keeps the budget down and gives opportunity to lads who are young and hungry.
  10. Whether he had an injury or not doesn't matter, it was a negative change. Could have brought on a number of players including Mullen at that point but he chose to go defensive which backfired in under a minute. I am not singling out Bannigan, I was actually just more pointing out at Firhill during the Queen's Park 4-3 game we made the exact same mistake. Brought on Hodson - went defensive lost a quickfire goal and then the shape went. It was working when playing more offensively in both games, and ultimately we got punished for it in both games. Personally I just felt going more defensive wasn't one of our strengths. That being said; we created more than enough chances to win the game in extra time once we settled down again.
  11. Ultimately not good enough, said the minute we took off Fitzpatrick for Bannigan we were being too negative. We then lost a second within a minute and from that point you've brought on a defensive midfielder to defend a one goal lead having withdrawn an attacker. Going to be a hard slog next season but lets see where it takes us. In Dools we trust
  12. I was thinking this; busy up until kick off time; was hoping for a few pubs with a Jags takeover
  13. After a JL stand ticket if anyone can help out? My mates bought his ticket for JHS and the rest of us over in JL so were hoping to sit together. DM me if anyone has a spare (Adult ticket)
  14. I really hope its Killie from a selfish perspective as I really want to go to both games. Afraid if its County I'll be priced out of it; especially with 2 games in space of 4 days, all that additional travel cost would probably just be too much in a week. Anyway; football wise, I didn't think we should fear anyone. Playing with some real confidence right now and tonight could have been 7/8... Fantastic performance again by the team.
  15. Have to say really enjoyed yesterday despite the ref doing everything in his power to give Raith every decision. Thought I may have been biased until I rewatched the highlights on YouTube and its quite poor from the ref, first Tiffoney is fouled in the box no pen, second the Raith player miscues his kick after being kicked about 5 yards out the box and falls over and the ref gives a pen Despite that, thought McAvoy, Bannigan, Lawless and Tiffoney were all outstanding, the rest all playing well too, with a special mention to Mitchell for a solid performance as well as a much deserved clean sheet. Took my niece along for her first Thistle experience and she was delighted and asked to go back.
