Partick Thistle 🟡 🔴 vs Queen's Park ⚪️⚫️ - The Big Glasgow Derby

[jagfox]

Time to bounce-back and on paper we won't  have a better chance with a visit of the South-siders.

They will be looking for a good result so it could be another close affair at Firhill.

Last week was poor but I'm not going to write-off our chances on one bad game.

Need to defend better and hopefully we get the right combination in the middle of the park and going forward.

 

 

[Albert's Ghost]

We should win this.

Watt needs support.

Not enough midfielders in the box. Fitz needs to up his game again. 

Hopefully Samuel fit to come on for his usual excellence.

[Lambies Lost Doo]

I'd swap Fitzy for Lawless 

[lady-isobel-barnett]

Wouldn't be surprised. Only negative is a drop off in pace. That doesn't happen when Wee Stevie comes on with Samuel and Watt comes off 

[partickthedog]

I hope that there is not the remotest suggestion of complacency here. QP may occupy a lowly place in the league table, but they have lost only 4 out of 12 league games.

[Lenziejag]

Didn’t quite catch from the match preview if the elusive Dan Mackay will make the squad tomorrow. Ashcroft and Crawford still out and too early for Martin, although he managed 60 mins on Monday vs Livi.

[Dick Dastardly]

McKay was in the squad to face Raith, so unless something has happened, I would expect him to be there again

We have got to hump the South-siders

That’s what I mean, though. In the past when he has played in any kind of game he has picked up a knock.

Watching Ayr v Pars. A result for the Psrs leaves the Table looking nice and neat . Saints 9 points clear of the pack. Jags 6 points clear. Games coming up Queens and Airdrie - the bottom 2.

Anyone have feelings on de ja vous?

Yes, but hopefully we should be good enough to win today and maybe get on a winning run again. Queens might only have lost 4, but they’ve only win 1 out of 12, same as Airdrie 

[Auld Jag]

Going to be a showery and windy day, which will make it difficult playing conditions.

Does the balaclava come into the matchday squad for the first time this season?

Don't want to reveal my tactics, you will just need to wait and see.

Disappointed Lawless doesn’t get the nod this to start this week. 

[exiledjag]

I see we are playing a 4-1-4-1 formation today. Have we done this before. Looks like a going for goals very attacking approach.

Hope it works.

[Dick Dastardly]

Looks like a fairly normal formation to me, with McBeth in for Ashcroft.

Said elsewhere it could be a matter of pace. Front three containing Lawless and Watt would be a touch pedestrian. Wee Stevie does deserve a start and Fitzpatrick possibly deserves benching but I feel the pace thingy trumps that 

[Dick Dastardly]

Have we forgotten how to score tap ins ? Goal of the season is going to be a tough call

[lady-isobel-barnett]

What a goal!!!

[Stephen1876]

Two brilliant goals, and could have had more if decision making had been a little better. 
 

Best wishes to Charlie Fox, that looked a horrible injury and he was clearly in agony. 

[elevenone]

Lovely stuff and hope @Camallain packed a spare battery.
