Him going to Kelty is about as good as we could have hoped for in the circumstances. They’ll be able to take on a bigger portion of his salary than the majority of L1/L2 clubs who would realistically be interested. I was thinking our only chance of shipping him out without taking a massive mutual consent hit would be if Queens Park or Kelty were interested. Delighted it appears to have worked out that way.

Website says to wait until 10am Saturday before contacting them if you don't receive one but I don't fancy cutting it that fine. Came here to ask this. I've organised my Dad's ticket, and he (well, me on a second address) has got his seat, but I don't despite being part of a bubble. Hadn't seen the 10am Saturday thing, so I guess that's something. Still though, seems about as well organised as you'd expect. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should do well at that level and the level above if you have him for a few years. He just needs to remain injury free. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s played a lot of games at Championship level in his career, so theoretically should be very comfortable at League Two level. But he’s had a shocker with injuries the past couple of years and there’s no telling how much of an impact that’s had on him. If you get the O’Ware who is even relatively close to the Morton version of O’Ware, he should be fine for you for the next couple of seasons. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe before his new deal, but after a year+ injured the last contract we offered him must have been on reduced terms. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm probably just being a grumpy dick, but you'd think with all this time to plan, they'd have come up with a robust system to make sure that for the first "proper" home game since we were all cast out of Firhill went by without a hitch. Should we really be relying on individual emails being - I assume - manually sent out? The one I got was from "Gerry Britton". Assumed that was just for show, but I imagine they're all sitting there in the office around mounds of paper and a corkboard diagram up on the wall trying to work it out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a 2 year, 4 month extension (rather than a new deal) in January 2020 - https://ptfc.co.uk/ptfc-news/tam-oware-signs-contract-extension/. "Partick Thistle can today confirm that centre-back, Tam O’Ware, has penned a contract extension which will keep him at the club until May 2022." Extension implies the same or similar money at least. Not one of McCall's best decisions! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's probably a fairly simple way of sorting this out for the duration of which we only allow season ticket holders and their social bubble temporary allocated seats for the foreseeable or until remaining restrictions are lifted. I can definitely see us doing it the most manual way possible. Also, hoping the entry times are quite relaxed, absolutely f**k sitting in an empty stadium for an hour and a half before KO. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forameus Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 And now the e-mail used for my Dad's season ticket (bought a good while after mine) has got a message advising that both tickets have a spot, at a different seat that I was told yesterday. What a club. Good to actually have it sorted though, looking forward to being back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
costa Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Bryce Ntambwe, f*ck me man. That game he played centre half away vs ICT was one of the worst footballing performances I’ve ever seen, from a team and individual! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Admittedly, the line up we had in that game is one of the most depressing things in the history of the club, but still. Edit: The fucking state of that. There’s at least 3, probably 4, players there who’d make my all time Thistle diddy 11. Edited July 30, 2021 by oneteaminglasgow 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

colliedug Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 Does anybody know anything about the marquee which was spoke about by the club a few weeks ago being put out in the car park @ the JH stand because the Aitken Suite is closed ?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still can't believe we swapped Ando on loan for him with St Johnstone. Until recently we've been an utter calamity in terms of signings for years. Remember watching Storer down at Ayr, either the League cup or first game of the season and thinking we are going to get destroyed during that season.

I'm sure his Dad attempted to take a Gary Caldwell parody account a "square go" on twitter. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd think his numerous appearances in the Scottish Premiership and who his dad is would have convinced some random League 2 or National League jobbers to take a punt on him. Dont remember him having an injury or anything so looks like he's just given up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
