Doolan was injured for most of last season both at Ayr and Morton , just my opinion but Kris Doolan about the club would be a great asset helping with the coaching at the Academy and helping out the first team when needed , surely he would be able to help players like Rudden and Lyons with his knowledge. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looked sharp in that game against us, I thought, but he got next to no service from Ayr players, surprisingly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaggyben Posted August 1, 2020 Report Share Posted August 1, 2020 Take the Micky all you want still one of the best players in the last 20 years lived and breathed thistle wish we could sign another like dools sadly can’t see it happening but sad when people rubbish an absolute treasure played for the team We have had some good/ great players for Partick thistle over the years but I think it will be a long time before we see another Kris Doolan we wiz lucky we had him for so long take big swipes at him if you want just don’t knock him maybe he is a past his best as some think but every decent jags supporter when asked about the best thistle player will put doolan in their team I hope one day we will see fit to acknowledge everything Kris did for our club and right the f##ckin disgraceful way our club let him go a sad day for a great player who gave his all for us and got shafted by the club sad days maybe that’s why we are slipping away as a club When I see all the knockers on this site I don’t see much hope thank god I have 50 years of memories seen some good players and seen some poor players but when we knock ex players that played and breathed Partick Thistle it saddens me I don’t know what the future is for our club but to disregard great players like Dools is a mistake feel free to tear me to bits over this post but I fear we have lost our way as a club our supporters are leaving in droves as Fraser in dads army would say we’re doomed where did go so wrong can’t all be Doolan and Erskines fault 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what your second point means DD. The records show goals in senior competition are valid against all other teams in the competition, including against nine men, or -dare I say it - against Thistle.

We can’t afford people to help about the first club when needed or help sometimes with the youth academy m. We are cash strapped and need to get out the league first time of asking. we need players to hit the ground running immediately and 2 goals against Berwick and one against us is unfortunately not good enough. we have Brian Graham and presumably Cardle to help Rudden and Lyons Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s about the influence Doolan could have around the Club whether that’s creating a team spirit that was lacking last year , getting young players to understand what’s needed to be a success , mentoring guys like Rudden who seem to run in straight lines all the time ,Doolan might not be a starter but to bring him on with 20 mins to go looking for a goal , he’s a better bet to do that than a lot of other players we’ve got . 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Peebles Tackle Posted August 2, 2020 Report Share Posted August 2, 2020 Not saying he’d be a starter, but can’t believe he’s being written off at 33. We’ve just signed Foster at 35 and Messi is 33! Worth 10 goals off the bench in this league I’d say & also good to have in as a coach. Not up to me & I don’t know the finances available, but if at all possible it would make a lot of sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought it was 2 goals Mansell got? Personally I would not have kept mansell. I don’t think either Doolan or mansell are the answer.

And or anyone disrespect Doolan. He was a wonderful loyal servant to the club and was shabbily treated by the then manager and our present chairman and CEO. But I'm afraid he is not the answer for us nowadays. We have to get away from this ' old boys' syndrome. You mention the future, well we look to the future with the younger players that are being brought in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
