jaggymct Posted June 3, 2021 Report Share Posted June 3, 2021 Hope the pitch can cope with the additional matches, its been in great condition since it was overhauled and the drainage sorted. QP are not short of money these days so hopefully we are charging them a fortune for its use ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lady-isobel-barnett Posted June 3, 2021 Report Share Posted June 3, 2021 Should be a most useful and welcome income stream. Neither of the clubs two home ties in the League Cup clash and you'd hope that league fixtures avoid much of that as well. Only obvious drawback would be two Firhill games over a weekend (maybe Scottish Cup ties). I think we only have two Friday night home TV games so I don't see too much chance of weekend doublers. Then again can we presume the SPFL won't **** things up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaggernaut Posted June 3, 2021 Report Share Posted June 3, 2021 (edited) Aren't QP upgrading Lesser Hampden? Clyde, Hamilton, now QP..... Who'll be next?  ETA: Just saw the article in the The Herald. The upgrade won't be completed in time for the new season. ... And just read more about it. After the redevelopment is complete, the total seating capacity will be 1,774. How ambitious are they, really? Edited June 3, 2021 by Jaggernaut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MonehJags Posted June 3, 2021 Report Share Posted June 3, 2021 That will be worth at least one player we might not have been able to afford. Good news Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The replies to the twitter announcement were not so positive but then twitter brings out the worst in people .....and just like that Quote Some supporters raised concerns about the park when the announcement was made by the Jags on Twitter, but Britton has insisted that the pitch maintenance in Maryhill has come a long way since then. https://www.glasgowtimes.co.uk/sport/19347877.gerry-britton-assures-partick-thistle-fans-firhill-turf-will-not-suffer-queens-park-groundshare/?ref=fbshr&fbclid=IwAR3xdXkXF9guh4Gpz2W4uzOCdGFJ2LbhhUpHePCNHpThVmypi681UztYCtQ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laukat Posted June 3, 2021 Report Share Posted June 3, 2021 In April and in March there were times when we were playing 3 games a week at Firhill and the pitch arguably never looked better. Hopefully that means it can cope with a game or 2 per week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here AJ. My wife refuses to kill them. Generally she leaves them alone but as we live in a small seaside/country village we receive regular visits. When she thinks they are becoming invasive they are collected into small plastic boxes and escorted out of the house to be deposited into the garden where they can lead a healthy life! I am informed those that are Jags fans get to stay!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twenty years later, I'm just about over the trauma. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlgarveJag Posted June 12, 2021 Report Share Posted June 12, 2021 Presumably it's not a lot of money but rather some 'income share' linked to gate receipts but every money spider is welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
