East Kent Jag II

Quite right BB. Mixing my managers up. Thanks for the correction.

I'm in Norfolk this week. These seals at Horsey reminded me of Lee Bullen. Very aggressive. Overweight. The one at the back right, looked like Lee - blubbery, aggressive, and wearing white skinny chinos. 😁

A for me please, BB. Thanks.

When I was at Firhill for the Raith Rovers match last week, I was very impressed by Scott Tiffoney & Harry Milne in particular, but also by the team play. Passing was good. I've seen nothing about Scott being injured, and if he plays, I think we will get a result. Morton have not filled the pre-season predicted relegation places, and won't be easy to beat- especially after their most recent performance. 2-1 Thistle.

Every real Jags fan will wish Dools well, including me. I'm travelling up now for tomorrow's match, so it'll be interesting to see the reception he gets. Bring it on!!

Thanks AFK. Wherever they go (I trust not Firhill) they will be paying a six figure sum to share the ground. Add in the cost of the works to Lesser Hampden, and I suspect that they will be lucky to break even next season. Don't know if they still have any funds from the Hampden sale, but playing in the Premier League will bite into Haughey's millions.

If they do get up, they will top the Premier League- for the lowest home crowd figures 😑

Don't forget the magnificent Donnie McKinnon. Did he have a connection with Lewis & Harris, although born in Glasgow?

Any spare vacancies in hospitality for the Friday fixture? 😇

JeanieD has beaten me to it! Looks like the old Love St stand, & thin St Mirren stripes. Alan Hansen and John Marr had overlapping careers with Thistle, and I believe that the only time they played together at Love St was on 17 January 1976, where Thistle won 3-2 in a 1st Division match. Alan Hansen got the 3rd. Thistle, of course, went on to win the 1st Division That season, with Thistle going up as Champions, along with Kilmarnock. The St Mirren manager was someone called Alex Ferguson!!

The final event in the timeline is that "at some future point" the existing trustees step away. There is no finite time mentioned, and this process could drag out. Personally, I'd be happier if there was a periodic or (say) annual review, with an arbitration process available in the event of disagreement between the parties. Can this be considered?

PENALTY RANGERS!!!

A for me please, BB. Cheers.

Predictive text - Megginson, not Muggins 😇

Muggins starts foe Cove this afternoon. His 2nd yellow against Ayr was for dissent. A violent conduct red would have seen him miss this match, but he will be suspended in their next Scottish Cup outing.

H, A, H, H. Many thanks, BB.

Michael, you forgot to name the mascot 🤩

The Jags Foundation have now got 1,000 members. Well done to the TJF board, and our club future is looking rosy.

The football matches on the football on BBC website shows fixtures listed till the end of March, so in all probability the next set of fixtures chosen will be done sometime next month. Don't know what your timeframe for booking accommodation or travel is, but you can bookmark this website. As previously suggested, you might get some joy from contacting BBC Scotland Sport.

I must say that as a member of TJF I'm very pleased at the donation - however much it is, to the club's player budget. I'm also pleased with TJF sponsoring matches including the upcoming Scottish Cup tie. Ever since the previous board buggered off, supporting the Jags has become pleasurable again. C'mon the Jags!!

Numbers are 18 and 32. Good luck to all of you. I wish you could all get prizes!!

Hi BB. Predictions are:- A H H H H A H H H H A A A A H H. As always, thanks.

This was indeed the Alan Munro who joined us from Clydebank. I've attached his Archive profile below. He only played for the first team on three occasions, and he did score one goal, in an away friendly against Stenhousemuir, which we won 2-1. The 3rd match he played in ( Not listed in the profile) was a friendly against Rot-Weiss Essen at Firhill on Monday 4th September 1972. We won 3-2. I used to attend quite a few matches at this time, but I don't remember him either.

The photo is included in the Official History book. Copy below- with names. 👍

LLD, I've a fair bit on next year, so when I attend a match, it'll be at short notice. Can you leave me out of the draw for the hospitality, as other donors are better placed to use it. I should say enjoy it! Good luck to the other donors.
