We aren’t exceeding expectations, we are meeting them, so finishing third is “job done” it seems. Finished second.

A last minute penalty, is devastating in the same way it’ll feel brilliant for the Thistle fans the other way. Anyone who’s ‘not bothered’ by going out like this is off their head. And I mean from the ‘fan emotion’ side of things, I’m not even considering the loss of income side of things in that statement. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tea and Busquets Posted July 29, 2023 Share Posted July 29, 2023 That could have just cost us potentially one , or two, loan players. Absolutely shite. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted July 29, 2023 Share Posted July 29, 2023 On finances alone, it’s the lower league sides who should be taking it seriously from the get go solely because of the money involved, and our never ending £400k holes. I have no problem with Championship sides not giving it the same priority (and clearly they don’t), but we really must. 2 minutes ago, Grangemouth Bairn said: It’s not - I know exactly what you were getting at.

No, I genuinely know what you are getting at. I’m 100% agreeing with you here and you are still trying to cause an argument - f**k me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully this will build his confidence and carry momentum into the league campaign. Personally thought we didn't look like scoring when Allan came on for MacIver 16 minutes ago, Tea and Busquets said: Seems like Partick get another get out of jail free card. Ref was conned against us last week and it’s came back and cost us. Sorry but we shot ourselves in the foot at Partick, yep ref was shit but we couldn't defend. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. Really should be seeing the game out in the 93rd minute. By equal measure really shouldn't be giving teams a goal of a start after a few minutes either. Lang has been a good addition to the defence but I think with the rest of the protagonists beside him from last season I don't think we'll be much better at keeping the back door shut the signs are already there. FWIW I'd also have went for a more experienced goalkeeper no disrespect to Long and Hogarth. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't see the clamour for Allan at all. Hate to say it but I thought he looked lazy and went through the motions. Can see why McGlynn hasn't been convinced and having spent ££ on him you wonder what he was thinking - panic! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shodwall cat Posted July 29, 2023 Share Posted July 29, 2023 Piss poor first half . Lot better second half with miller a definite upgrade on Oliver. Thistle scrape through due to two last minute goals in the last two weeks. Frustrating but was always going to be a big ask today. Next Saturday the priority. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
