Garscube Road End 2 Posted March 7, 2021 Report Share Posted March 7, 2021 Just let's say that our squad is getting worse and McCall is getting desperate because as a League 1 side its what we should expect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a stop gap maybe to get out of league asap. But ideally we should be or at least trying to recreate a young attacking team that is entertaining to watch. Build the team around Sena and get rid of a lot of the dead wood who got us here in first place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it then just about confirms that he is signing being part of Thistle's bubble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sensibly realistic part of me nods sage agreement and says that it would be tragic to sign an over the hill past player on the basis of sentiment. The dare to dream part of me, which for no good reason tends to win most arguments, would pose the question: League decider against Falkirk. A Thistle player races across the halfway line, ball at his feet, defenders scattering before him. Who do you want it to be? Who do the Falkirk fans least want it to be? A Brian Graham B Blair Lyons C Zak Rudden D Conor Murray E Chris Erskine Sorry I cannot do polls. Answers on a virtual postcard accepted.

I'm afraid 2013 is a distant memory and as you say, Erskine is over the hill. The reason he went to the Lowland League. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laukat Posted March 7, 2021 Report Share Posted March 7, 2021 I think this makes sense. We need creativity and we're signing a guy for a short period who only a year ago was in the top league. When you add that the unique natue of this season and whats avilable to be signed then I would welcom Erskine back. https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/local-sport/partick-thistle-legend-chris-erskine-23623945 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trotter Posted March 7, 2021 Report Share Posted March 7, 2021 Docherty a few weeks away from being fit. Might be available before the end of the season. Same applies for Williamson. That’s why Geggan likely & the young boy from Rangers. Erskine- makes sense. Got to remember that this time last year he was playing in premier league. Better option than some and will always give his best for Partick Thistle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady-isobel-barnett Posted March 7, 2021 Report Share Posted March 7, 2021 A League One club signing Erskine on a 2-3 month deal is certainly a lot more logical than a Championship club a couple of seasons ago signing Harkins on an 18 month contract. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
