Lenziejag Posted October 23, 2018 Report Share Posted October 23, 2018 I am afraid that it isn’t every 50 years. 1876 to 1921 is 45 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok, after early promise of just 45 years, we quickly reverted to the 50 year timescale. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy McD Posted October 23, 2018 Report Share Posted October 23, 2018 Great day never to be forgotten , sadly it is only a memory for us of a certain age mostly 60 and above....Hard to believe it's our only MAJOR cup final in almost 50 years........................

I can say 'I saw my team Partick Thistle win a major trophy' and we thumped a very good Celtic team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auld Jag Posted October 23, 2018 Report Share Posted October 23, 2018 It would be great to win another major trophy. But I will settle for getting back into the Premier league in the next couple of years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’d take winning a major cup over promotion any day. 47 years and not a major final or cup since, 2 generations of our support have never been to a major final unlike several teams our size over that period Caley County St Johnstone Killie Ayr Gretna Airdrie Motherwell Raith Rovers St Mirren (Probably more, but it’s depressed me enough) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winning a cup would be magnificent. Contrast with five years in the top league where winning at MacDiarmid Park seems to have been the most heralded highlight.
