Lennon has done bugger all unless he had twice the budget of anyone else in the league. I do take your point that the others are hardly the crème de la creme
What happened to the second grave accent?

Begin Again!
There was a wee Jag called Johnny Flanagan
He was gallus, even arrogant...

This time last week, we couldn't even spell his name, never mind having a picture or a bio to speak of! Today, we're delighted to present 1930s winger FRED HINCHLIFFE whose grandson was Craig Hinchliffe, Thistle goalie from around 15 years ago...
Looks like he's wearing a goalie jersey, or else he liked fishing.

I bet there are hundreds of articles and comments with Hinchy's name wrongly spelt. Probably more than any other Thistle player, though I still stumble with Flannagan, Flannigan, Flanigan, Fullanigan.......

If the site was closing you would've had a drink to drown your sorrows.Â
Anyway, a big thank you to the guys taking over the reins, and another big thanks to the outgoing admin for all the work and showing the ropes to the newbies.

Unfortunately I think the general view of us failing to reach a playoff spot is reasonable and I’m sure the board will be relieved if that’s the general expectation throughout the support.
The only way I can see us doing better is if Wilson/Baraclough turn out to be particularly successful in recruiting fresh but relatively inexpensive talent in the next few weeks, and Wilson can blend them and some youth quickly. I’m already writing off the new season as a rebuilding one and anything other than that will be a bonus (excluding fighting off the bottom two places of course).ÂWhen your team's board is relieved that the fanbase doesn't expect anything from the team, things must be pretty bad!

I think that Rooney, Low and Dolan might do a job next season after impressing at the end of last season. Certainly at least as back up for injuries etcÂ
I read that as Rooney, Law and Doolan! 😆

Banzo staying fits for me, I suspect we are going to end up with a very young squad so we'll need the experience in that area, at a guess won't play as much as last season but for me he still has a lot to give
To me it's a mystery how Bannigan has managed to pull the wool over the eyes of successive managers over more than a decade. Slow, getting slower every month, passes almost entirely sideways or backwards, sets out to get one or more yellow cards in every game, and is as good as a man down in the eyes of the opposition.
Nope. I don't get it.Â

Haha, this is the kind of conversation that just 10 years ago would have been incomprehensible to most supporters.
Let's hope that our youngsters and older "with it" guys can keep things going, and see PTFC do some amazing things before too long!

Arguably the best Thistle-related news since the season ended! Reason for a celebratory drink this evening.

I hope that the club will keep us updated over the summer as in the absence of facts rumours and speculation take over. I used to have a manager who said when there were periods of uncertainty "a lie has gone halfway around the world before the truth has got its shoes on"
Aren't rumours and speculation a big part of the entertainment during the summer, followed by the dismay or the delight, and of course the expert opinions of forum members, when each new player finally gets unveiled?

On the plus side at least we're not Dundee. Sacking Docherty for Pressley seems a bit wild.
Neither us or Dundee have so far shown the value of having a sporting director/director football role in the last few weeks.
Hmm, what should our sporting director have done since his appointment a few weeks ago that would have "shown the value" of having him, in your opinion?

I thought that was a pretty good interview.

RIP.
Sorry that I didn't see him play for us.

Turner also out for a few months from now.
Jeez, this kind of thing seems to happen to us every year.

Domo arigato gozaimasu, Admin. You didn't need to take this on, but you've done a great job.
All the best to you and your nearest and dearest.

Who'll get the last word in?

Probably the most articulate manager/head coach we've had since most of us can remember. No "Listen"s at the start of every sentence. No "Definaaateelley"s (so far). Please, God...... No "early doors" when we lose an (bound to happen) early goal.

Rangers have released Lewis Budinauckas. Just saying!
I wonder what is the percentage of players loaned out that end up getting shown the door by their "parent" club is, My (vague) guess is the majority.

According to the OS apart from loan players those with contracts expiring this summer are,: Mitchell, Kelly, Muirhead, Bannigan and Jakubiak. The rest are contracted to 2026 or 2027. Realistically which players should Wilson & Barraclough be looking to bring in and shift out either on loan or agree a release deal?
All can go. Wouldn't mind if Mitchell and Jakubiak are given another season.
-
Looking forward to seeing how the Wilson-Barraclough partnership pans out, and happy with them both in their positions.
Don't forget, everybody: Davie McParland didn't exactly set the heather alight right at the start of the season when he took over. It took a lot of tweaking of formations and tactics to get us playing the great stuff that eventually paid its dividends.

Nixon now reporting Graham has said no.
We seem to be dragging our feet on this process and in danger of losing candidates because we didn't move fast enough.Â
Literally elected a new Pope faster than we've appointed a Head coach
Our Head Coach is more important.

I dunno..... Pressley might help us make sure we're not caught in a trap.

All the best! Some folk know you, but most of us don't. I hope for only the best for you and you nearest and dearest.
