bunglebonce Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 I usually wouldn't start a thread when one of the teams still has another fixture to play first, but: It could be a wild one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staggie52 Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Should be an interesting drive down the A9 after the game for those keen (daft) enough to come up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staggie52 Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Yes, we're just worrying about the soft Southerners coming up for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's a café or something now The Balantyne next door is still available though. Plus the other usual haunts. The bar area the stadium is worth checking out. Not sure if they let in away fans though? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Staggie52 Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 He's usually as reliable as any forecaster can be. It's a bit early to be more definite but looks like a night for keeping the ball on the deck and your hand on your bunnet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bunglebonce Posted December 21, 2016 Author Share Posted December 21, 2016 The last time Partick Thistle played in Dingwall on a weeknight was in the First Division, when they were penned in by strong winds in the first half, Lawson and Gardyne were on top form and Iain Vigurs scored a peach of a free-kick. Christie Elliot played up front and Thistle flitted between 3-4-3 and 4-4-2 as they did at the time under Jackie. If Friday goes ahead, I had a gut feeling that this will be the game where it happens for Jordan Slew-incarnate Ade Azeez. Slew had the same kind of impact at County but his only goal was a sclaffed finish in the last game of the season. Spoiler Inside Scott Fox's near post Jay McEveley is back from suspension, but now that Paul Quinn is back in the team I can't see McEveley returning to centre-back immediately. Conveniently for the manager, big Kenny VdW will be suspended, so the team will probably be: Fox Fraser Quinn Davies McEveley ? Chow Routis ? Boyce Curran I doubt Gardyne's hamstring will have healed in a week. Maybe Burke will be back, which would be great news. The wings will probably be occupied by Dow on the left and one of Franks or Dingwall on the right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cerberus Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 Taylor had next to no composure in front of goal either. He would just smash the ball towards goal. Azeez could do with just hitting a few toebashers rather than trying to place every shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you said I can see Adebayo getting some festive joy against Scott Fox thanks to the latter propensity for conceding goals to forwards of a struggling nature back in his Thistle days.

archie guevara Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Just leaving for Dingwall because there's an 80mph headwind to fight against. Might just get a flight to Ireland and deploy a hang glider though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DazzJag Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Doubt i'll make this one, do County have some sort of stream available like we have Jagzone? 5er for a game or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I admire your optimism. Sadly we don't even get interviews with the players anymore, let alone any kind of live broadcasting. The BBC might cover it if you're lucky.
