Pull My Strings Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 I don't know about spin, it's just a fact -Thistle 2 wins from 7 finals (including the Challenge Cup) United 4 wins from 18 (including the Challenge Cup and UEFA Cup) Thanks, I did understand the point you were making. I suppose it depends whether you think winning two cup finals is better than winning four cup finals. Or indeed whether getting to 7 cup finals is better than getting to 18. It's certainly a fact that Thistle aren't as good at getting to cup finals or winning cups. Depends how you want to phrase it. That's what makes it spin.

It's certainly a fact that Thistle aren't as good at getting to cup finals or winning cups. Depends how you want to phrase it. That's what makes it spin. I did consider that angle. Winning two is only half as good as winning four. However, losing 14 is nearly three times worse than losing five. As for your second paragraph, when Thistle do get to a cup final they are better at winning them than United. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

invergowrie arab Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 apart from anything else he has replaced sean as the voice of the clubs phone service. its inconceivable he would leave after that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chazas_ Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 A thread for a twitter rumour It doesn't even have that much credibility. It's a United Mad rumour by the looks of things. Most of them seem to want Jackie and 'the baldy snake' in charge of our fantastically well run club out the doors of Tannadice which is pretty bizarre really.

Ad Lib Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 thistle have never been in a cup final Not only is this a fail given our League Cup and Scottish Cup victories in 1971-72 and 1920-21 respectively, but it also not even true with respect to McNamara's departure. He left in-between our Challenge Cup semi-final victory over Cowdenbeath and the final against Queen of the South. The "in a cup final" remark could scacely be more apt.

Sloop John B Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 Must... resist... 8Mile joke. If you had, one shot, or one opportunity to seize everything you ever wanted. One moment. Would you capture it or just let it slip? This would have been better if I was a St Johnstone fan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

underdogunderdog underdog Posted March 2, 2015 Share Posted March 2, 2015 There was a thread on United Mad about a week ago, suggesting that Peterborough wanted him, I dismissed it as nonsense as Mad rumours usually are. Whether he's staying on or not, all doesn't seem well at Tannadice right now. Someone is unhappy. Think there's more to this than just a rumour that's got blown out of proportion. That being said, can't see him leaving. I wouldn't be happy at losing my two best players and not being able to replace them. He should have been allowed to keep them till end of the season. Their chances of a cup win and challenging at the top of the league destroyed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
