Dowds is out because he's on loan from us and therefore is ineligble. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
partickthedog Posted April 24, 2024 Report Share Posted April 24, 2024 Concerned on 2 counts: This thread has been started too early. The thread title is too conventional. I hope we can take advantage of the fact that Ayr will not be well enDowd in attack. Apologies! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Dastardly Posted April 24, 2024 Report Share Posted April 24, 2024 So disappointing. For the last few weeks the match day thread has been getting started much later, often in the last 24 hours. The result have improved dramatically over this time. We will see what happens now, but I fear the worst. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dl1971 Posted April 24, 2024 Report Share Posted April 24, 2024 As confident as any thistle fan can be going into this one. Last 6 we have gathered 14 points and are unbeaten. Ayr I suspect will play for a draw. As long as we keep up our current momentum....what's not to like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exiledjag Posted April 24, 2024 Report Share Posted April 24, 2024 I predicted a hard fought draw with Airdrie and by the time the game finished it had turned into a rout. Therefore I think I will give up making predictions for the rest of the season. Regarding the Ayr game I would make a couple of points, we: 1. seem to have regained the ability to defend, and 2. have found our touch again in terms of scoring goals. Put these two attributes together on Saturday and hopefully that will be good enough for a win. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lenziejag Posted April 25, 2024 Report Share Posted April 25, 2024 It’s not a good sign when we are too confident. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Peebles Tackle Posted April 25, 2024 Report Share Posted April 25, 2024 (edited) I suppose we’re all Dundee United fans on Friday. If they win, matters not a jot what happens on Friday, barring an 11 goal swing in Airdrie’s favour… Edited April 25, 2024 by Gary Peebles Tackle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Know how you feel and kinda agree. But the result to them is of no importance. Ironically If they win then our game with them becomes largely academic. I don't think I have to guess who's first and second on your hate list. Our aim is to get back to the top flight and one of the unsavoury aspects in that division is wanting the ugly sisters to win certain games. Mouth and nasty taste. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lambies Lost Doo Posted April 25, 2024 Report Share Posted April 25, 2024 Keep the same starting team. Keep the momentum. If going well make subs to get Diack, O'Reilly and Bannigan some game time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fawlty Towers Posted April 25, 2024 Report Share Posted April 25, 2024 Hopefully with it being the last league game at Firhill we will get a big crowd, I know there are playoff games to come but not everyone might be able to make them.
