Could King Kenny be joining the Thistle rejects' squad at Dunfermline? I don't know how recent this is: http://www.grimsby.vitalfootball.co.uk/article.asp?a=199923 But I'd rather have Scott Fox any day!

Are we really scraping the bottom of the barrel to that extent? David Lilley, indeed! Who's next?

And history. Egypt ought to knock down those old pyramids and put up some new theme parks to attract more tourists.

From when I was a wean on the Firhill terracing: Aye, aye aye aye Niven is better than Yashin Flanigan's better than Eusabio We'll take on the r*ngers and thrash 'em. Ah, happy, carefree times.

Who are you to ask?

Can we take it that the Twechar facility is "slightly delayed"?

Maybe they'll move into the Firhill Complex? Now that I think about it, does PTFC have any link to that place, other than geographical?

Nicotine in modest doses is actually a perfect drug with only positive benefits. The problem (and it's a huge one) is that the only realistic vehicle for it - tobacco - is a killer.

If Sugar bought us, would we sign Tade & Lyle?

I have a feeling that some people are attaching too much to this match. I'd expect this to be a team of tim youths; hardly likely to attract the giro-dependent in their droves.

Presumably there's a cost involved. Anybody any info? By the way, greetings from Strasbourg, where the local team "Racing de Strasbourg" have just gone from previous European stage regulars to getting relegated out of the full-time professional leagues in France! They've probably also lost the use of their 40,000 + "Stade de la Meinau" (where I saw Pink Floyd in 1994), which costs a fortune to maintain and to run.

Is oor young Campbell the son of Jackie??

I just hope they don't end up as camp as Gary Tank Commander.

Read this article, and it's difficult not to think, if even for a fleeting moment, of PeeTee....... http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-south-yorkshire-13696862 Or is it really just me?

I was wondering who woods tee off with the puns.

I have a feeling that Campbell might turn out to be a big hit next season. He showed glimpses of excellence at the tail end of last season, getting down to the bye line and send in crosses, and even setting up real chances by working in along the 18-yard line. On a couple of occasions he did get caught out by trying to take the wrong option, but he'll already have learned by some of those scarier moments.

It would be kind of amusing to see both ICT and RC both in the SPL at the expense of a "big" central belt or east coast team.

And of course there is considerable debate about where the border precisely lies.......

World poverty, global warming, and the origins of the universe could all be solved if we got these guys on the job.

Hare hare!

A wee song for him, with acknowledgement to Midnight Oil: The time has come To say fair's fair You came and went Pay back the shares The time has come And that's a fact They belong to us So give them back.

I've been wondering the same thing.

I wouldn't worry too much. It took several weeks for (at least some of) them to get sent out last season; I think mine arrived almost 4 weeks after the cheque was cleared. If it hasn't arrived by the time we're in the League Cup semi-final then I'd give Ami a call.

That got me thinking about Thistle hard men. Who were they? My memory really only starts from the mid to late 60s, and I remember that Tommy Gibb would never draw out of a tackle. Then I remember that Ronnie Glavin was feart of nobody, and would in fact often give more than he got all during a match. Actually, and I've never mentioned this before, Charlie Smith (RIP) was pretty dirty. I saw him "niggle" a couple of guys when the ball was miles away and neither ref nor linesman was looking. And I distinctly remember him spitting in an opponent's face; first time I'd ever seen that. I was away for most of the 80's and 90s, but wasn't Steve Pitman meant to be hard? Who else, or who since?
