I fear he may follow Jobbie to his next club

Who is our David Brent?

Papa was a Jags fan went to first game back in 82 cup run v K*ll*e(2-2 replay at Firhill), then went with mates from school.

Terminal Decline? I've not quite given up yet but... If this happens the OP will have to change their name to beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep

" I think Gary Harkins has bags of talent but he’s a bandit. " Genius pure genius

Manchester

This Funny how a year last march most Jaggoes would have happily have seen him jump ship to Dungdee. Partick Fickle football club.

There's a very poor joke in there just waiting to come out...

There is always a third way (tony blair circa 2003 ) probably a lot more than that in actuality. As you say Beattie has shown the cojones for what ever reason to actually run the club so I guess he needs to be supported as long as propco rumours are not true

Get out for a nice walk in the park, its a lovely day

Jobbie spotted at FFSstock car track - so much for a low profile. Poor old brown brogues, I could almost feel sorry for him......Nah, stuff him.

There is not a manager alive that has tasted as much success in the Scottish Football League as John Lambie. Lambie, 70, was a first division league winner with Hamilton Accies in the 1985-86 season and then again in 1987-88. He also went on to win the championship with Partick Thistle in 2001-02 . On top these three first division titles, he triumphed by leading Partick Thistle to the second division 2000-01 title and won promotion to the old premier league with the Glasgow club in his second of three managerial spells at Firhill in the early 1990s. Now, as Raith Rovers and Dunfermline head into a two horse race for the title, Lambie is adamant that team spirit and the will to win are the deciding factors which will determine who comes out on top. And while the former Douglas Park and Firhill boss isn’t overly impressed with this season’s football on offer, he knows the key to success. He said: “The most important thing is that you have got to have a strong bond with your players. Don’t get me wrong, a few skilful players help, but you’ve got to have to be able to have a laugh with them. “I had one or two head-bangers during my various spells at Firhill, but I got no trouble from them. I had Chic Charnely, Don McVicar (who sadly died of Motor Neuron Disease, aged only 43) and Roddy Grant. Christ, and I even signed big Martin Hardie...for £1000. No wonder they call him mental – he is! “But when Martin Hardie puts on the jersey on he gives you everything he’s got and you can’t beat that. “Martin is the type of player you need to win the first division. “He is still a good player. I still fancy Dunfermline to win the league. I’ve seen them even more than I’ve seen my own club (Partick Thistle) this season. “But a lot of the games are so bad it’s unbelievable. It’s meant to be entertainment in the first division but Christ – it would send you to sleep sometimes.” Lambie reckons there are no great shakes on this season’s SFL First Division shortlist for First DivisionPlayer of theYear, which includes John Baird (Raith), Andy Kirk (Dunfermline) Gary Harkins and Sean Higgins (both of Dundee). He said: “I couldn’t pick out any real individual for player of the year. I think Gary Harkins has bags of talent but he’s a bandit. He wouldn’t make my top list of players.” Lambie admitted that Ian McCall’s departure from Firhill makes him concerned for the future of Partick Thistle, or ‘his club’ as he affectionately calls them. “Ian did a good job at Thistle, I watched them against Dunfermline a couple of weeks ago and I can tell you that they are a very hard team to break down and tough team to beat. “But the pitch at home is terrible, it’s like Portobello Sands, and that doesn’t suit the style Thistle like to play. “ He might be a 'never-say-never' man, but The Maryhill Messiah is highly unlikely to be taking charge again of first team matters at Firhill. “I think I’ve had enough. In a different capacity maybe, but if you go into something you want to do it well and I just don’t see the right materials there. “If I was going back into the job I’d want promotion. That would be my number one aim. But I think the club are a wee bit short financially for that. “I just hope I live to see Partick Thistle back in the Scottish Premier League again.”

Funny how not many Jaggoes gave a sh!t at this point. Most were upset that the compensation figure stopped Jobbie from leaving if I remember correctly? How fickle we are

Jobbie gets 7/10 from me. Second best to Lambie in my 29years watching/enduring previous Thistle managers attempts.

1207

I don't think Jobbie had his troubles to seek, so possibly this is a chance to get himself sorted out off the field.

Got house in West End I think. Seems a decent enough bloke,however, enjoys a good bevvy and groping birds, must be trying to deny "the incident" Thought having just parted company with one baggage carrying manager was enough

Undoubtedly

We can add his name to other famous jaggo film makers such as Welles, Kurosawa, bergman and Seagal!

Weatherston one of if not the highest earner at crappilow, unlikely unless he gets a free.

The Ton will be found to have been using frosty jack lids and be thrown out. If they were eligible I could easily get about 500 from walking up the kelvin to dawsholm :op Seriously, could be better led by club.

Did this at bronx when Erik B O Andersen scored a hatrick against us. Went with my papa's neighbour. Got fooked 5-1 so I didn't even need to sit on my hands.

I would be happy with that team. McGowan a decent addition and a better pick than Hodge or Cairney imo. 2-0 Thistle. This will make us the form away team of the division ;op

Third time lucky this season and its not the worst away trip in the world by a long shot Could have been a lot worse, Cowdungbeath at firhill for instance

On negative side worried by inclusion of just one out and out central midfielder, Fletcher but on positive side other boys in midfield have quite an attacking side to their game. Not sure if he's going for possession. He's definetley got a gameplan and has no doubt had mick oliver and other scouts reports to work on. Lithuania beat this mob so not too fearful. We might even get a win
