I think it was a snapped Achiles which did for Dumbaya as a Thistle player, after a very promising first season. This did happen close season during an informal kick around with mates mind.

That’s because they are. Top of the last 5 form (12 from 15), with us second (11 from 15). The big difference is that they are also top of the last 10 (23 from 30), while we only got 13 points in that time (7th)

Don’t forget that last season’s second place team got humped 8-0 in the playoff

I actually thought that was a fairly comfortable win. It wasn’t fun to watch, but if the game was still going on I doubt ICT would’ve scored. We had the best chances (if not that many) while I don’t remember Mitchell making a save of note, nor them missing any decent chances. Suddenly being defensively very solid means we can get away with a lacklustre showing in midfield /attack. On balance I definitely thought we deserved the win anyway

BBC at it again

Meanwhile we did in a final we ultimately lost

While I disagree with this entirely (not being accepting of racism or homophobia is hardly being "closed minded" I would say), the truly most bizarre aspect of this argument is the idea that the "media" is some sort of progressive woke echo-chamber which comprises only The Guardian and its ilk. This is the same media which includes The Mail, The Express, the Telegraph, The Sun, GB News, The Spectator etc.., none of which I have ever thought of as woke.

Well if everyone who doesn’t like it apparently likes pro wrestling, why not?

The weird irony about all this hoarding chat is that it didn’t even work. Strapp just moved them and took his long run up anyway. All it did was provide a bit of pantomime entertainment for the crowd.

As for the first goal- a fan video from more or less level suggests that it was just about onside

So it’s top v bottom in terms of last 5 game form. If anything, this entire table underlines what a crazy league this is.

We had a few out, yes

Indeed-

Possibly last season- I remember a similar run

I forgot how good this was (and never witnessed it in person). Seeing it now, maybe I’ll go for this one
