Do Partick act as a development club for Rangers ? The amount of loans Partick take from Rangers is massive. 
 

This came up before..they train on pitches next to each other, share same facilities,  it suits sevco, and Partick, as they only have to look over a hedge to check on a player of theirs who's on loan.

Me too.

One of my former business partners played for them, Alan Nelson.

Also, a chap I play bridge with, David Boyack, I think was a former player.

Of course there was the legendary Jimmy Jack who always crucified us, then we signed him and he was hopeless.

David Boyack’s sons were very good footballers.

Not sure if anyone else has mentioned it, but Morrison taking that wild shot in the 93rd minute rather than just keeping it in the corner was one of the most pea brained things I've seen in a long time. Very nearly cost us with Doidge missing the one on one directly from the subsequent goal kick.

So was that our hoodoo broken? Was that our first win over a bona fide 100% full time team since beating RC in a game that meant nothing to them as they were already champions.

When we have (rarely) beaten Airdrie, I am not sure if they were 100% full time.

Believe Airdrie still had some part time players last season but majority were fulltime.

Any word from the club condemning the homophobic chanting? That shit needs stamped out quickly 

Probably don't want to follow up such a high with a low but totally agree.. bang out of order and needs dealt with now.

A statement tomorrow would be perfect I think. Pretty sure most of us on here could word it for them if they like.

Yeah, so last night we beat a 100% full time opposition for the first time since the Ross County game on the 4th of May, 2019. If we want to consider a game that meant something to both sides, then the game against Dunfermline at EEP on the 13th of April 2019 would be it. Over 1,100 days in either case.

There’s been a few Falkirk fans condemning it on Twitter where Jamie Swinney is pretty active so I’d imagine something will be said.

Just watched the Falkirk TV highlights, Brad McKay didn’t have give it to the Hibs fans at the end and some of their players weren’t too chuffed 🤣🤣🤣

Good on him. If I was a professional player I'd be giving it big licks to the OF and Edinburgh teams after every win.
