  1. Hopefully Spurs refuse to sell him and Kane ends up doing a Peter Odemwingie for maximum entertainment value.
  2. Rhys Breen looked worse for us than Lewis Mayo did at centre half, and he was playing at a lower level. He appears to have done fine at Queen of the South, so fair play to him, but I certainly wouldn't have been thrilled if we'd brought him back.
  3. September 2061 Genuinely can't believe how well that month went. RFS are the runaway leaders of the league, by a country mile the best side, and we swatted them aside with absolute ease. Metta are a team very similar to ourselves, and again we were 3-0 up before having to tighten up when they threatened to come back. The two games against Ventspils were weird, they thrashed us for the first half hour of the first game, and looked lightyears ahead of us, but for the remaining hour of that and the full second game we were probably the better side, despite only having 10 men when we scored in the second. Very, very pleasing nonetheless. I'm prepared to call it and say that we will be staying up this season. Not mathematically secured yet, but being realistic RTU aren't going to catch us. Hopefully pick up a few more wins but my attention has firmly turned to building next season's squad. Latvia Disappointing. We competed well against Belgium, but obviously we were never going to actually win that one. Took the lead against Georgia, and were doing well but then we had a five minute period in the second half where we just collapsed, conceded twice and never really got going again. That game was, I think, my best chance to get some points on the board as well, so really frustrating. Aye, bottom with no points. The only thing I'll say is, of the teams seeded sixth, we have the toughest group and are the only ones who haven't taken any absolute pumpings yet - although both Malta and Andorra have managed to pick up some points.
  4. I realise that the chats moved on, but just wanted to take the opportunity to mention how much I love Tam Cerny. The greatest practitioner of general shitehousery that has ever lived. Once got a penalty for Motherwell (I’m pretty certain) overturned just by shouting at the referee until he changed his mind. Absolutely iconic.
  5. Italy v Japan at the Confederations Cup in 2013 was a belter - it was 4-3 to one of them, can’t mind which.
  6. If there’s one thing that’ll definitely help the SPFL negotiate a better sponsorship deal, it’ll be having their current sponsorship deal very publicly fall apart leaving them scrambling around looking for a new one. Can’t see any way that doesn’t put them in a position of strength in negotiations.
  7. A bit of classic Sean McGinty leading to that chance there
  8. There we go. I completely forgot Alston played for Killie. f**k knows how someone watched him at Falkirk last season and decided he’d be a good shout up a division.
  9. I don’t know if it would have made any difference, they don’t seem to know how to break Ayr down and actually create chances. Main tactic seems to be getting Burke to cross it in, which isn’t working yet. I think if Killie score one, and Ayr open up at all, they’ll get a few more though.
  10. I’d very much appreciate an Ayr goal greeted by absolute silence
  11. He’s significantly better at football than anyone else playing in this game
  12. I didn’t think it was a penalty but I’m also surprised it wasn’t given, if that makes sense?
  13. Sean McGinty and Jack Baird as a centre half pairing is… interesting, shall we say?
  14. It’s Lorenzo Insigne. I got him in the golden boot sweepstake for the Euros, and have kept the picture because he’s an absolute dreamboat. Edit: prior to this I had photos of various Partick Thistle related people doing Partick Thistle related things. And Alison Johnstone.
  15. Surely El Salvador have someone who’s played in the NFL or another of the American sports leagues?
  16. Mine is his dad turning up on the Thistle thread to tell us what a great player we’d signed because he once scored a hat trick against some fifth tier Irish mob. But aye, that programme cover was one of the most tinpot things of all time
  17. Going into the last day of the season under Caldwell where we needed to beat Queens to guarantee survival, the assistant manager sent out a message asking the players to send in who they would pick to start. Ally Roy screenshotted the message and got it stuck on twitter in an attempt to make the management team look bad - well, worse that their performances had already made them look. He was also absolutely pish for us. Like, woefully out of his depth to the extent that I'm amazed he's still a full time player.
  18. Aye, it's a very close one. If it had counted, I doubt there'd be a huge amount of controversy to be honest, we'd be more annoyed at Jamie Sneddon for, once again, being pish at goalkeeping.
  19. Not the best camera angle admittedly, but the third boy in looks like he's offside. He isn't the one who headers it, but he ends up right where the ball is so could make an argument for interfering with play. Not entirely conclusive obviously, but I'm tempted to say the linesman got it right, despite his nonsense later on.
  20. Dunno about Christie, but when Edouard goes maybe you’ll be able to play someone who’s actually trying. That might help a bit
  21. Aye, it’s a bit like when you went from having Fraser Forster, with Craig Gordon as back up, to actually playing Conor Hazard within a year. Just fucking wild stuff
