So lucky. A wake up call for Wilson and the rest of the team. Really missing Ashcroft at the back. Not necessarily for his defense skill, but his leadership. 

Sick of us cucking for Celtic dossers like McArdle. We have young players of our own to develop. And unbelievably I think I've seen more effort from Dan Glass Ankles MacKay this season than Fitzpatrick. We have been fortunate this evening - but 4pts from 9 means I fear the league is slipping a bit. This needs to be a bit of a wake-up for the manager in terms of how he approaches these types of games. 

One thing I will say is that we probably wouldnt have got the point last season.

We haven’t had too many really poor performances this season so nicking a point tonight is at least something. 
 

Smyth had his worst game in a Thistle jersey and Lets’osa and Turner struggled in there as well. 
 

Our wingers final product was abysmal tonight. Head down and leather it across goal without looking to pick someone out. 
 

Clarke needs to do better at the goal but made some fine saves to keep us in it. 
 

McArdle hasn’t done much to show he’s up to this level either. 
 

Im a big fan of O’Reilly but if he could stop taking twenty touches before making a pass, it’d be a big help! 
 

Poor game but a couple weeks now to get a few bodies back and go again.

McArdle is absolutely useless, and Fitzy is a waste of a wage. 

Hmmm does McArdle get Scotland call ups due to his play with us or his very loose connection with Celtic.

Fan of Wilson but really poor subs again tonight. Falling into the Doolan routine of same uneccessary subs after 60 mins. Letsosa and Chalmers- baffling changes.  No idea how Turner fitzy lasted 60 mins and was mcArdle even on the park

I don't see why Matty Falconer is out on loan, as McArdle seems no better.

Nicely done by kenny arthur at the end 

If my memory serves me correctly he made a similar error in a game against us when he was at the end of his career playing for Airdrie at Firhill but thankfully for him we were several up at the time.

Thanks to the excellent Thistle Archive it was the seventh in our 7-0 win on 20/10/12 so did not impact the final result but keepers' union will be in play.

Futzpatrick and Smyth can leave the now. Wasters.

 

Just as well they stayed on until the 94th minute.

Lucky to get a point but I will take it.

Smyth did not have a good game tonight, but hardly a waster, one of our best players so far this season imo.

Exactly! Some knee jerk reactions on here tonight… ok, we were poor and hardly created anything, a bad and yet lucky night sure, but overall this season we’ve been better than many including me expected. 

Wilson looked and sounded pretty pissed off at the end, he accepted we didn’t deserve anything from that performance. His subs have been pretty good this season but I think he got it wrong tonight- McArdle added nothing again except to give the ball away, and whilst Chalmers wasn’t having a good night (nobody was), he is the most talented player in the team. 
Aside from the last 15 min of the first half we did nothing much, fair play to ATS, his team played well. Hopefully just an off night for us.

The curse of the manager of the month award strikes again!

We were dreadful for most of that. Thought only O'Reilly played near normal levels. Clarke, Watt, McBeth, Chalmers and Reading were ok the rest were well off it.

Turner can't play the role we need him to play in midfield. Smyth seems to struggle with his passing on Astro pitches. Fitzpatrick has been off form for a good few weeks and god knows what Lawless has to do to get a start.

First time I've seen Wilson get his subs wrong but taking off Let'sosa rather than Turner was wrong and taking off Chalmers rather than Fitzpatrick was really odd, you could see even Fitzpatrick expected to come off. Don't understand why we took off Watt particularly if we were going with 2 strikers.

Samuel made a bit of difference as did Lawless. McCardle had a complete nightmare.

However its not a bad sign to pick up a point when you play so badly plus the celebrations after the equalizer were lovely. Feel a bit sorry for their young keeper but then I remember its Airdrie so get it right up'em!

Threadbare nature of the squad has been exposed after a few injuries, no midfielder had a decent game tonight so got bossed there, substitutions were baffling to say the least so were very very lucky to get anything from that game. 
 

Having said that, successful teams often nick points they don’t deserve so onwards and upwards.

Watching the game on t.v. how MC Ginty was not shown a red card for the tackle on T. is unbelievable..

Saw it at the game and couldn’t understand either. I’d like to see it on tv. A few minutes later he pulled one of our players shirts to concede a foul as we were trying to break from our half. Baffled as to why that wasn’t a second yellow card. Most of these refs really seem to have no idea

Agree Smyth i'd say was one of our better players. A few too many backwards passes but not much movement ahead. And a few genuine top quality long passes and solid challenges and looked up for it too. Would definitely not pick him out as a bad performer tonight
