I had assumed the Morton game was being televised when initially planned envisaged as a possible relegation decider. Things change. Interesting the Campbells have been around AFC for 6 years - that is a very LONG time in any managerial setup but I must say it's gone by quickly, an eventful and entertaining era. Carry on like this and they'll be challenging the legacy of St Albert Henderson. On the downside, I recall regularly abusing Dick Campbell on the touchline as manager of Forfar, Brechin, etc so almost disappointing that opportunity has been lost. Long, long way to go this season and lots of tough games in a league which has become almost crowded/claustrophobic. I'm still determined to concentrate on OUR OWN games (not other teams'), minute-to-minute and game-to-game, and sincerely hope the team does too. Anything else is mere background noise 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lichtie78 Posted March 8, 2022 Author Share Posted March 8, 2022 Comments on the clubs post announcing fixture change are embarrassing. You’d think the BBC had banned us from attending rather than move the game to the Friday night. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course they will, people love to moan. I reckon some folk wouldn’t be happy unless they’re carried from their house to the game in a sedan chair. Probably still complain that the cushions weren’t comfy enough. Even though it’s a bit of a pain having our games moved around for tv, it’s part and parcel of being successful so, with that in mind, I’m quite happy. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DUAFC Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 (edited) Just read that Derek Gaston got the academy goalkeeping coach job at The Rangers a couple of weeks back. Well done big man - good job !! Just to add he's a totally top man, best goalie and amazing with the fans.

ellichtie Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Did find this take quite funny. Realise it’s not all Thistle fans take on things, just found it pretty amusing. Would be happy to see both us and Thistle go up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes 9th in League 2 to the Scottish Premiership - as a part time club who have never been in the Premiership as it is now or indeed the top division in decades - would be far less of an achievement or fairytale than... A Premiership sized club who have been in the Premiership for numerous seasons - who dropped down into L1 for one whole season before working their way back up to the level they were at Hmmmm 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lichtie23 Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 I also read a Thistle supporter mention they are the only team In the title race who didn’t get the £500,000 grant and are “hanging in there” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A team with a top 4 budget being relegated from the Championship for being shite, then winning a shite League 1 against PT teams and a shambolic Falkirk is not some sort of fairytale.
