    Wonder what was the thinking behind puting the Morton fans  at the tunnel end of The Colin Weir stand , I cant remember this happening before ...................

    Yes, that was unusual. Maybe a "PC" decision ("sometimes left, sometimes right....")

  2. I didn't think that Morton were as bad as some folk are saying. They certainly lacked width, but they got control of most of the loose balls and knocked it around to each other with accuracy and pace (compared to our failed 2-yard flicks and slow, generally useless sideways and backward passes). But our defence was able to cope. Fitpatrick is on great form. No failures in the team, even though the overall performance was well below excellent. Two beezer goals (Alston's reminded me of a scoring back-heeler by Trigger at Brockville).

    As for Graham, he's like a big, mouthy child. With a history of mouthing off until he gets sent off. Deserves whatever punishment he's due. Not fit to be captain.

  3. What worries me most about tomorrow's match is whether pttv will give access to the video (already paid for) before half time, whether we'll get to see any goals or will the video be refreshing when they happen (like last time), and how many random clips of old matches will be on the screen because the live action has cut out (yet again).

    To be fair to the excellent Archive, having hijacked their thread, here is a link to their report on the game on 4th September 1999 with Quinton's debut getting a mention. http://www.thethistlearchive.net/match-1999-09-04. Always enjoyed going to Stair Park when kids were young, as they could enjoy the play park until 5 minutes before kick off!

    My abiding memory of Stair Park is a game in our 1970-71 season in the 1st Division. Midweek (Wed.), and I'd dogged school to get there on the NorthWest supporters' bus. I was a bit worried about missing school, but who should I see outside the ground but Mr. Robert Reid, my Languages teacher. A mutual smile and nod.... "We'll say nothing more about this," was the mutually understood message,... as he was also doggin' work!

    I am not following this. Do they not do their best when they play at Petershill ? Is it not £5 usually ? I think the previous best this season was 300 odd - probably against Celtic or Rangers. I am sure some of those extra that turned up at Firhill will go along to Peterhill more regularly.

    If more people go to see the women playing at Petershill then that's good. But it's not a real stadium, is it? Firhill is at least three-quarters of a real stadium.

  6. I think McInroy is key to our attacking play. He's fast, buzzes around, tackles, passes nicely, and will probably score a few goals as well. Glad we've got him for however long it is. Would try to get him on a longer deal if possible.

    But I'm anxious about how long we can hold on to Fitzpatrick. He's now more clearly showing the ability and types of performance that got him a deal in England, which was too soon when it happened. Long may he continue to outpace and carve through defences, and score for us. Enjoy him while we can!
