f**k this shite, the Pars are going down with the Smokies.

You do realise that this means we'll have four games again against the mob 90+ miles down the road from me!🥺. At least the Pars bring in paying punters in some numbers and almost a guaranteed three points in each fixture.😊

Just watched the highlights back. Didn’t realise at the time how much of an impact Hamilton made when he came on. Won so many flick ons, including one leading up to the second goal. Hopefully he’s done enough to earn a start on Tuesday

Looking at the league table and game stats, it is mad to think that we are only 4 behind United with a game in hand given our recent 'challenging period'. It is absolutely credit to every team in this league that we are in a situation where the league title is far from decided, playoffs still seem to be a lottery and it feels like the whole lot could go down to the wire. What a season this has been... the Championship must be the most competitive league in the UK.

He is very good at game management. Wins fouls, breaks up play, very good at defending ironically and gets under the skin of opponents.

Any word on anymore new contracts on the table or pre contracts??
Wasn’t sure about Matthews.Think he could play himself into a new contract.

Easton?Byrne?

Class what Murray said during his interview yesterday that it was Stanton who approached Raith about getting a new contract done.The guys a class act

Did the boy who did this not get sacked from the programme? 

These days he'd be head of media output 

The guy involved posts regularly on here and is one of the reasoned and insightful posters.

I think his take on it was that if people are uncomfortable with the truth, that's their problem.

Well he must not be posting on this thread then… unless he’s from Texas that is?

What was the story with Stark’s Bark, did they not get the bullet for writing something similar or am I getting my wires crossed with the above?

The Partick Thistle website says we are in the Jackie Husband, isn't the Aitken suite in the Colin Weir (aka Wooden) stand?

So here we are after a brutal 3rd quarter...13 points from it after getting 20 and 21 the first two quarters, Looked at goal scoring and conceding in the Championship, and I see a very clear trend for us giving up goals in the 46-85 minute range. Something IM isn't doing well is preparing the team to come out after the half, and his subs seem somewhat disruptive...not sure how else to read the data. The conceded goals are especially bad in the 61-75 minute range (4 goals conceded in each 5 minute increment, like the 36-40 minute increment.

Interesting.
It’s probably too difficult/time-consuming a piece of analysis but it would be interesting to see how those stats correlate to substitutions. Isn’t that very vulnerable period is probably around when our subs start to come on?

Stark's Bark started around 1992 then went into a hiatus from 1994-95 before reappearing at the start of the European season. It lasted until around 2002. Some of the Glasgow mafia apparently took exception to some of the home truths in it, but that's not the reason it stopped.

Rough figures...

Looking at 61st-80th minute goals only...15 goals conceded, of which a substitute occurred shortly before (within 5 minutes) 5 of them, or 33%.
