Wright this season; Fox in 2013; and Campbell in 1921!! If Wright is fit for Tuesday - who will be in goal? I honestly wouldn't like to choose that one!! I'm sure someone else will update you with the league wins. I think 1932 with 11. Sneddon will be in goal. Made a couple of good clearances today.

Beat Cove on Tuesday (which is not a given) then a draw on Thursday v Falkirk secures promotion.

Hope we can find some energy and legs for Tuesday otherwise I suspect we will have to beat Falkirk and Montrose. Light training and lots of massage for the players also some time off. They are as fit and sharp as they need to be! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watties wallies Posted April 24, 2021 Report Share Posted April 24, 2021 cove are part time are they not surely we should be ready for this on Tuesday btw a big shout for our young keeper Mr Sneddon today had a great second half between the sticks on tuesday hopefully banzo and doc make it bring it on as other posters have said let's get out of this bloody league 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. DD had posted above 4 points but as you point out it has to be in the next two games. I guess that’s what he meant. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allyo Posted April 24, 2021 Report Share Posted April 24, 2021 If we lose every game, Montrose and Airdrie draw, Airdrie beat Cove and draw with Falkirk, and Montrose beat Falkirk and draw with Cove, we win the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barney Rubble Posted April 24, 2021 Report Share Posted April 24, 2021 Draw all three games and at worst we'll be champions on goal difference, barring a couple of real cricket scores. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Auld Jag Posted April 24, 2021 Report Share Posted April 24, 2021 Some great permutations on this thread. I would rather we picked up 4 points at least from our next 2 games. Then the league is ours. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great first half, struggled in the second, but Airdrie are a decent team and will take points from Falkirk & Cove I expect. Go for a win on Tuesday, but I'd take a point. I just hope Banzo or Doc are fit, losing both would be tough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you said “great first 45” I thought you meant your marriage! I’ve been married to Thistle for 51 years. Its been a love/hurt/joy/disappointment /high/low/low relationship mainly. But I’ve never divorced them although I’ve felt like walking out a few times. Seriously though... congratulations Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
