I re-watched the game, he did struggle but he was a completely different player when Fraser came on, maybe the familiarity of each other's game from the Dev squad helped him, but most of our good play late in the game involved him

Still got another few days here so maybe he'll pick himself up and show something different

He was rotten for the first 15 minutes then was ok. Had a nightmare in the for most the second half

He looked absolutely devastated after his mistakes. Felt sorry for him

Got quite a few left who'll no doubt step-up to the first team in the next couple of seasons. McInally, Docherty, Penrice, McMullin, and McLaughlin are the ones to watch out for

Horseplay

I agree about Wilson. It's like he is nervous and overthinking everything even though he already has played with the 1st team. Reminds of Squiddy's early days. In a similar note - Despite him bossing the development league, I've not been impressed with Leyden in the pre-season games. I'll not judge until he's played a few league games but I'm beginning to think it's maybe a season too early for 1st team football.

Forgot about wee Neil. Penrice and Leyden too. All 3 were with the club before the investment though

The ones coming through have been with the club before the Weirs investment or, like Jack Hendry, been brought into the club as part of the Dev squad rather than part of the academy

Hendry has been brilliant for the development squad since the turn of the year. It's great to see him continue that and grab his chance at the first team. He also seems to have grown about a foot and bulked up over the summer

10:55 is the time I have written down, with the Dev squad starting their match against at Airdrie at 11. Does seem like a weird time, but it's a closed door friendly so anything goes

Closed doors.10:55 kick off. I presumed it was at the Rock

My heart sunk a bit there as I read that as Ray Winstone for some reason

Hahaha, what the f**k?

Fake one. Real one is @thistlemascot

That's the fake one. Real one is @thistlemascot

Main mascot man here. This has been phenomenal. Don't think anyone at the club expected it to be as huge as it has been

Neither of them are staying. Starting to think this someone changing their mind rumour is a load of crap, unless it's Higgy or Craigen. ....Although Foxy was at Firhill training with Gal this week

Some Barnsley fan followed a Merc and posted posted pics of it on Twitter the day before POTY

I've seen Jordan McMillan on Maryhill Road a few times in the last week. Maybe he's the one rejoining

Except Conrad's Merc is gun metal gray not silver, and he doesn't have a private plate.

Would love it if it was Balatoni or SOD staying. Don't see it happening though....but... Conrad did tell me last week he didn't have anything lined up yet
