  1. Hey Admin Without doubt family comes first and this forum a distant second. I am very sorry to hear of the trials you are now going through and I send all the very best wishes for both you and your partner going forward. Although I don't participate as much on the forum as I used to it has been something that is a big part of being a Jag. Every time I come back it can be like discovering Triggers broom again All the best and don't forget your towel. Ford Topcat
  2. When I saw this I thought YES YES YES You can drop your sweggies on the ground and you have 8 seconds now before "God kissed em, devil missed em" to pick them up and still eat them.
  3. Think there is any chance of another Ladies match being played at Firhill this season? Chance to take my daughters for a few drinks and a match. I know....Petershill Park but I really really hate watching football on plastic surfaces.
  4. Dear Mr F.Towers🙂 Can you tell me how the other prizes are picked for this lotto if no one gets three numbers and the jackpot. Is it maybe contestants who match one or two numbers and then drawn from the hat like the old 800 club or is it just a straight draw for those other monthly prizes. Was wondering thanks Topcat
  5. Usually in the end decisions boil down to money. Who is paying the piper. Could it be that "Corporate hospitality" calls the tune. If you pay extra to visit a match and fund the club you might expect the best view or perspective. Just like the box at the theatre. They wouldn't stick corporate anywhere with a more restricted view and the club are hoping those customers get the big finale
  6. Came on to have a rant about the 60th odd minute substitutions but see that Doolan has held his hand up to that one. Threw the game away. Graham and Lawless were still bursting with cup tie energy. Being later in their careers that meant a whole lot more to them and barring an injury both would have done the 90 easy. Martindale couldn't have believed his luck when Doolan ran up the flag and signalled our intensions to defend a lead from the 65th minute. Feel sorry for some of those players who put a shift in for that 2-0 lead. As well as Graham and Lawless, Bannigan had one of his best games and well I could list a few others who didn't deserve to be on the end of that poor managerial decision. I am a great believer that mangers should be sitting in the stands and radioing down their instructions to the dugout as being above the play gives you a better perspective. Maybe if he could have seen it like we can see it he would not have done that. Just watched Camailians video of McInroys goal and what can can you see in the Jackie. Nobody sitting in the first five or six rows at the bottom because the view of the game is crap. Get upstairs Dools
  7. We are all hurting for sure but I want to put a big shout out there to our young jags support. Watching you this last few weeks backing the team in big numbers and not stopping singing from start to end has been one of the highlights of this season. Ok there were a few bams with flares but just a few years ago if you went to Firhill the average age was def creeping past 40. This is the time for fortitude and bloody mindedness. Its an absolute doddle to support the Old Firm but a real supporter goes thru thick and thin. With you lot on board "Thistle" are definitely back and you can hold your heads high and look forward the best league in Scotland, and it isn't the so called Premier. So keep the faith and see you all next season Mona Theestle!
  8. Yep just watched those highlights and love the number of young jags going mental. Spoiled by the Flares. Instant ban from Firhill as far as I'm concerned. Might let you back in if you grow up and go on a safety course. Leave that behaviour to the old firm. Club are right. Got to stamp this out
  9. Scratching my head why QP could only muster 340 fans. Wasn't Firhill their home ground for a while. Isn't Glasgow there home toon. Isn't Ochilview further from there traditional base. Even at Hampden there support is usually 500+ Must really be the telly coverage. Its the only thing I can really think would keep them away.
  10. I see the Partick Thistle taxi news story and the mini bus being used to give a free ride home for the older supporters. Would be good if you could just call Glasgow Taxis or the club and book this normally when the club are not using it. Maybe on a Sunday. I know its probably just a sponsored club bus donated by Glasgow Taxis but would love to turn up at my h*n brother in laws in it or shout up a few other like minded bodies and meet in the Corona and book it to bring us to the match from the Southside like the bus of old.
  11. He,s around you just don't, see him. It's the Camallian effect!
  12. Were don't do corners do we. Must have had about...well I don't know a lot in that second half. My mates all bet on weird stuff like who will have a shot on target or who will get a red card etc, but I bet you would have won a fortune if you could have put a bet on the exact amount of corners we had. But I say that with my reflection on the game. We pummelled them with enthusiasm but lacked a killer touch. I reckon at least 20 corner kicks I think the heavy pitch didn't suit us trying to pass it into the net. But I can't say it was a bad performance or criticise effort. Inverness defended really well. It was also 1-0 not 4-0 so we move on and keep battling for that play-off spot.
  13. But quiet a lot of the time the ball was not getting released quickly enough to Lawless and he had to deal with a few hospital balls. If he gets the ball to his feet earlier he could have been and even better threat
