Richard Nixon Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 No, I mean the likes of you might be hoping for a late night tan top-up, manicure and nail polish across from Munn's. At least then you might feel a bit better about yourself and have something pretty to look at while you're typing your honkin patter on here. pmsl OK, pal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blues Brother Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 Not going is not an option, why ? simple I support Partick Thistle I will be in my proper seat in the JHS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinnyjag Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 I think for some of us, going to this game is a red n yellow rag to a bull, their fans appear everywhere and annoy the fck out of us. If you can ignore the bile that comes from them that's great, personally it brings the worst out in me when any of the OF come to Firhill. Therefore it's best not to go, and give me JHS season ticket to a mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
read'n'yell Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 Not looking forward to it, but it's worth going to twenty of these games so you're there for that one time we win. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Col Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 Totally scunnered after last two performances so staying at home. May watch Sky, may not. Apathy has finally set in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rid Skwerr Posted February 9, 2015 Report Share Posted February 9, 2015 Not looking forward to it, but it's worth going to twenty of these games so you're there for that one time we win. In this sort of vein, I found this poem among a load of old programmes I was sorting through recently. It was written by Hughie Healy on 23/10/1991, about 23/10/1971, and may provide a wee bit of inspiration for fans that are swithering at the moment.... It's called "Against the Odds" Eight tae wan the odds were that day at quarter to three eight tae wan against Thistle ten tae wan against me. The ten were a' Celtic supporters who gave me the life o' a dug ah supported Thistle to them that made me a mug. They cracked a' the corny jokes ah heard when ah wis a wean they'd love tae make up new yins but the eejits hivnae the brains. Dae ye fancy a bet they asked wi' a sneer 'n they were right tae feel cocky even to me a life long fan Thistle's chances looked rocky. They bragged aboot the "Lisbon Lions" Dalglish, "wee Jinky" and Danny even suggested we coudnae put the ba' past Alan Rough's granny. They'd everything in their favour the crowd, the papers, "The Pope" McParland forgot to tell Alec Rae we were just a team wi' nae hope SO WE JIST BATE THEM FOUR WAN. Ah had a bet wi' one o' the "Tims" when he paid me he felt a right fool called me a wee orange ******* tho' we'd been to the same catholic school. Thanks to the team o' seventy wan but we cannae live in the past when we're in the European Cup-Final they'll be the first to be asked COME BACK AND CHEERS THE THISTLE. Ach, well...you never know....this Wednesday.....maybe...... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulo Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Not really looking forward to this after the last couple of performances. So that means you never know what might happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Graemei Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Let's hope the pitch is a leveller, Celtic have their minds on Inter Milan, Archie picks the right team and uses the right tactics and who knows what might happen and just in case all goes wrong have some fog machines standing by. A few crunching tackles on key players might influence things with the Milan game in mind. We need to do everything right though and put the last two performances out of their heads.

ThickAsThieves Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 I'll be watching on Sky. Skint right now so can't justify £25, especially after the last two performances. Plus you can't buy a ticket on the gate so I won't be tempted at the last minute... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GinolasBald Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 If I hadn't bought the 3 game package then I highly doubt I would be going tomorrow night. Still, positive vibes. Celtic have an eye on Milan, let's try and nick a draw. Minimum expectation is to keep our goal difference remaining positive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaggernaut Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Will the green hordes be in the north stand? Does that mean that all the flags need to get removed, or do they get removed after each game anyway? I hope the club wouldn't dream of leaving them there in the presence of those cretins.

the turning tide Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Never understand how fans can fail to get up for games against Rangers (RIP) and Celtic. Bottom line is, however unlikely it may be, we're always only 90 minutes away from one of our greatest days as Thistle fans. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady-isobel-barnett Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Not really looking forward to this after the last couple of performances. So that means you never know what might happen. Using reverse psychology on myself. If we had won the last two games I'd be going along glass half full and setting myself up for a fall. As it is I've no positive expectations whatsoever, apart from we just might not get a tanking. So speaks a season ticket holder. if I had to pre buy a ticket I could well have been giving this one a miss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruchillnomore Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Would not miss it for the world. Regardless of the score as a Thistle fan you are duly obliged to slag the old firm for 90 minutes when you get the chance....thats the difference between them and us(apart from the fact they have extra fingers and only one hemisphere up top) O.T.I.G. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stillresigned Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Can't make this one and to be honest, don't know whether to be relieved or upset: in light of recent performances! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Third Lanark Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Never understand how fans can fail to get up for games against Rangers (RIP) and Celtic. Bottom line is, however unlikely it may be, we're always only 90 minutes away from one of our greatest days as Thistle fans. the management and players as paid employees have a responsibility to get up for every game more than the fans.The fans were right up for the games against st mirren and ICT however the employees for the club the manager, Scott Paterson and the players failed completely to do this. I'm not an Archie hater and I'm not calling for him to be sacked and neither am I the players though a large number should have had their backside kicked neither am I saying one or the other was to blame but that they were all to blame: Archie for the tactics and dumb founding decisions such as not starting Taylor till half time Scott Paterson for coming out with such drivel as how exciting the cup competitions are for the club while then effectively failing to motivate these players or effectively coaching them The players - are paid to play for the club and not stand about completely not interested and effectively giving the fans who pay their wages a slap in the face. I will be going tonight but I can't blame any fans who are not motivated to go. Tomorrow nights it's the players and management who must be up for this game and indeed Saturdays game and every other game we have this season 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allyo Posted February 10, 2015 Report Share Posted February 10, 2015 Football supporters are under no obligation to be up for anything. They have no obligation to turn up, support the team, be positive, believe. There is no obligation to be a football supporter. It's a choice. Completely self motivated. But if you decide not to support the team, what are you? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
