Despite that defeat tonight, we have had our best season for years and I have enjoyed every minute of it. Our squad have put in a great effort and have unfortunately fallen short late in the season. But How long will it be until we can realistically do it again?
It is very possible that this was Dougie's season to go for the SPL and spend a little extra money. And how has he been rewarded, 1500 and 1700 at our last two home games. Those two crowds combined almost would have been roughly how many we took to Thistle tonight, but every penny of that goes into Partick's pockets.
The support is clearly still there as tonight showed, but as a club we can't afford to have consistent attendances of under 2000.
I think we need a big crowd on Saturday to prove to Rae that the support is still there, otherwise it could be back to mediocrity next season.
Despite that, its been a great season and the players and management have done us all proud, taking us to our highest finish in years.
