partickthedog Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 Gordon provided some welcome extra threat down the right. Great corner from Turner for the goal. After Holt’s header, the ball seemed to hang in the air for ages before deciding to nestle in the net. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
partickthedog Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 First 10 minutes brilliant. Then Morton worked their way back into the game and it went a bit flat. However, apart from one free kick for them, we had all the chances. We could not find much space as Morton sat so deep. Surely Morton will have to open up more and that should give us more chances.

Peaty FC Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 maybe its just my internet or devices but seem to be having a lot of hangups/buffering today - anyone else having similar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiThistle Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 A little bit in the first half. Video got a bit grainy too. Second half has been just fine for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barney Rubble Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 Job done against a howlingly bad opposition - well done Thistle! Hypotheticals are never a good idea for obvious reasons, but would a front two of Graham and Doolan have catapulted Thistle to another level a few years ago?

Anniesland Jag Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 Good performance from the Jags especially in second half and could easily have been 5 or 6 scud. Morton looked rank rotten and must be contenders for the drop .Also glad we scored early and put paid to the wee diddies with the drum. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Easy 4-0 or 5-0 the Jags!! Must say point d) is a good one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aberdeenjag Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 Very enjoyable afternoon in the sunshine that. Morton were rotten though,so we should maybe avoid getting carried away. Two things for sure though - we have proven goal scorers in that team and Tiff is going to be massive for us this season. Bring on the next victims.......not that I'm getting carried away of course.

Auld Jag Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 We started off well, should've been more than just a goal ahead. The game then got bogged down a bit and Morton had more of the ball, but didn't do much with it. Feared Morton equalising in the second half and us struggling. Instead we came out and scored 2 quick goals and killed the game off. Thought Gordon done well. Great to now have somebody to take good corners amd players willing to attack the ball when the corners come in. Thought Morton were very poor. But overall we played well and could have had a few more. Good to get a positive reaction after last week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady-isobel-barnett Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 Was a tad worried when Gordon picked up yon early yellow but the lad did fine at right back. When you omit own goals that's 4 out of our last 5 goals from Turner's corners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laukat Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 That is a very poor Morton team. We could have put 5 or 6 past Morton. Really difficult to judge how good Akinola and Gordon where because Morton offered so little but both merit another chance to show they are the answer That being said back 4 were solid and Sneddon will never have a more comfortable game in goals. Special mention goes to Kevin Holt who had Morton's start player Ugwu in his back pocket all game. So much so Ugwu got frustrated and should have been sent off for elbowing Holt in the face. The second goal was probably the best, with the pass from Foster to Tiffoney an absolute beauty. Tiffoney's lay off to Rudden was also very good. 2 goald in 1 game from corners is just not the Thistle way. We've probably scored more goals from corners this season than we have in the last 3 or 4 combined. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very rational, based on good solid evidence and objective evaluation! All of which led me to the conclusion expressed in point (d). I may change my conclusion if they beat ICT, Killie & Arbroath! I like ICT! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaggy Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 Solid performance although Morton were rotten. Early goals in each half make such a difference and great to have a real threat from corners. No failures today but Holt was MOTM for me. Next 2 league games will be interesting.

In the build up to the second goal, Tiffoney pointed down the line to where Foster should put it and he duly obliged with a wonderful pass off his weaker foot. Tiffoney then played a great cut back for Rudden to rifle home. Morton were very poor but our attacking options will be a threat to any team in this devision.

westertonjagfan Posted August 28, 2021 Report Share Posted August 28, 2021 Now that was an an enjoyable afternoon. Back in the old seats again and a coffee and a pie to watch the game. Should have won by 5 as everyone is saying. I thought Holt was superb today. Kudos to Shea too for a solid performance out of position.
