She'd was bouncing. Atmosphere was stratospheric. Holding on with minutes to go and up pops McCoist to bag the winner. Utterly devastated and totally deflated. Looked over at my brother who had his head in his hands. Still at least I went home with a bit of terracing! Did that winner not come from a quickly taking throw in that should have been returned to us after kicking ball out to allow treatment or am I mixing that up with another game?

This fella he signed from Raith was their captain no less. We played Rovers later that week but part of the deal was an agreement not to play him against his former club that weekend. Raith running scared, perhaps? Team captain, maybe a born leader? We had to wait just over two weeks for our next game and the much anticipated debut. Step up to the plate, Darren Brady. Was that not the Game where they had the Brother of some English Premier Team in charge ? Edited January 17, 2022 by Jordanhill Jag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Winning 1-0 through a Dennis goal right up until McCoist scored twice in the last 10 mins. If Memory serves - we played about 10 Minutes of Injury ( ie Rangers ) Time- that day They scored near the 90 Minutes to equalize- then there Winner was well into "time added on " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually managed to get home thinking we'd won. Horrible experience. I was at that game and the 'injury time' played was around 7/8 minutes. I don't recall Greig scoring but thought the zranhers goals came from Colin Stein and/or Derek zjohnstone. I vowed, due to the referee's clearly biased performance, never to return to Ibrox - a vow I have honoured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weebaw1 Posted January 18, 2022 Report Share Posted January 18, 2022 I could have chosen hundreds but the one I regularly think about lasted 2 seconds- the time it took the orangeman to raise his flag after Badger's glorious header. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sandy Posted January 19, 2022 Report Share Posted January 19, 2022 I liked Niall Keown in his first few games; an intelligent, calm player (not like his dad!). Unfortunately the early promise faded after the good start. Such a pity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garscube Road End 2 Posted January 22, 2022 Report Share Posted January 22, 2022 Eddie Prudham. Now that was good while it lasted. About 4 games? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
partickthedog Posted January 22, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2022 Muzzy Dumbuya, when he was fit. Great player, great character, great skill, great speed and great song. A few months of inspiration followed by two years of fizzling out and disenchantment. His handling as left full back (not normally his favoured side) of the physically dominant Josh Magennis and the explosive Kallum Higginbotham in the away match against Kilmarnock that secured our safety (2-0 win) in our 3rd season up was one of the all time brilliant Thistle player performances that I have witnessed.

Thistle had the chance of signing him, but Carlisle came in and gazumped us; don't think we actually put in an offer before they did.
