TartanC4 Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 I really think we should do away with this awards for being nonsense. While we're at it... jagzone pick a man of the match after 4-0, 3-0 defeat. I'm not saying there couldn't be a stand out performance in defeat. But surely the players should have a bit of professionalism about them and turn down or disagree with the award. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
potty trained Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 Considering theres been two victories this month, what should the criteria be? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TartanC4 Posted August 28, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 The two victories are Falkirk and Stranraer.... On the Falkirk game, totally dominated first half, passed with purpose and intent. Penrice was sharp and performed well, deflection on his shot, but great commitment and drive. Stranraer... Well it what you should expect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TartanC4 Posted August 28, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 (edited) Should Storer not get a nomination? His performance against Falkirk was great, first 20 minutes, picking passes for fun. Edited August 28, 2018 by TartanC4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you just need to be our best player. Not seen the nominees but I'd imagine Fitzpatrick and Slater are in the running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fitzpatrick wasn’t one of the nominees , Slater was , honestly couldn’t pick our best player just now , think it’s been pretty poor so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

potty trained Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 So, within half an hour, we've established they aren't having a laugh and might be obliged to do it, so can't do away with the awards? On top of that, a player who got a MOTM despite only being on the park for 20 minutes of a game, isn't in the running. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jags on tour Posted August 28, 2018 Report Share Posted August 28, 2018 Is Coulibaly a nominee? He’d get my vote, he’s not put a foot wrong so far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you need international clearance to be eligible for a Player of the Month Award. Al Ahly might impound the champagne in part satisfaction of their debt.

eljaggo Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 Why does it have to be a Thistle player? Perhaps awarding these honours to opposing teams' players might give our lot something to think about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenziejag Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 Who is “They”. I don’t think it is the club that is picking the nominations. I think that it is the sponsor. Do we really have to criticise everything at the moment ? In the Coulibaly thread our main sponsor was getting criticised too. If they get upset enough, they might just decide to put their money elsewhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only a bit of fun but for those that take everything so seriously I'd say the sponsor has had more insight into making the selection than many who'll vote.
