The Partick Thistle thread


Recommended Posts

Yea think ill give firhill a miss for the rest of the month, has a very death spirally feel to it

Conceding from yet another fucking corner should really see at least one of mccall/scally/archie punted. Shouldnt be happening to a pro team, isnt getting any better and its costing us.

Keeper and an older head centre half ASAP pls, mitchell is fine if we're in control of the ball but ive zero confidence in him when its backs to the wall time

Not sticking up for mcall but all 3 goals were shocking goalkeeper was terrible and injury list is worrying Dundee were not much better

Normally I'd agree but a lot of these issues stem from McCall's decisions.

The goalkeeping situation is dreadful and it's down to McCall. He signed Mitchell who it's clear isn't up to it and seems to have wrecked the little confidence Sneddon had at the same time. He went into the season with an unfit overweight Brownlie and Akinola who is a shambles now as our defensive backup and spent the money elsewhere on the squad including paying compensation for Fitzpatrick who may as well not be here now. None of us know for sure but I don't think playing a half fit Tiffoney for him to break down continually has helped his injury problems either.

To be honest there's bigger issues than McCall right now but he deserves a decent chunk of blame for the situation on the pitch.

Surely the chances of McCall actually being sacked are still very slim? And there’s no chance he’ll ever walk from the job.

Low might be quite happy for the fans to direct most of the abuse McCalls way and let it detract from the fact she’s basically stolen the club from the fans.

I genuinely don't know when we will win another game. We play Kelty in the cup on my birthday and I'm not sure we will even get past them. 

Wait, I've heard this one before. Usually from us before ending a winless run in bizarre fashion.

Not being funny, but why would he walk? It’s November and we are 5 points off top of the table and 2 points off second place. If this continues then he should be sacked before the January transfer window so someone else can be given a chance but with some very influential players out (Doch,Tiff,Holt and Graham.) 

He needs to stop the rot next week but we are still not far away.

We may be just off the top of the league, but we are on the sl8de with the leakiest defence in the division alongside Accies, with a calamitous goalkeeper behind them.

A manager who doesn't know how to sort it and two coaches who don't seem able to coach players.

If Morton don't scud us, it shows what a dreadful league this is.

The whole team is lacking in confidence I don’t think we put 3 successive passes together don’t know how he addresses the goalkeeper situation not nice to watch yesterday watching the long ball which was immediately put back to our vulnerable defence Muirhead was stupid the way he reacted  and he will know that however he certainly was not the worst player on the park the injury list is growing by the week which is a concern, lastly all the officials yesterday were dreadful we got absolutely nothing from them yesterday

Yeah he's not going to walk and despite the bluster in the accounts the cash position isn't great so it could be a big call financially to sack him and the two assistants. 

That said, I've asked on here before as Google came up dry but I had it in my head that when he took over this time he signed a 4 year deal, which would take him up to the end of this season and I can't remember any news of an extension. If this is the case then paying up his contract won't be as prohibitive but he could easily be on a rolling one year deal which would be. 

Would also expect Brian Graham to get the job if he does go, for similar financial reasons, and another player to take over the women's team.

I've done similar and got it as a three year and bit dealwhich would take him up until the end of the season but had a feeling he signed an extension but I cannot see anything about that anywhere. 

I see him getting shifted into a role as a mentor for the likes of Graham and/ or Bannigan.

Even despite this basketcase division meaning that they're no more than two games away from title contention again, you still have to admit that it's very funny that McCall is already coming out with Covid-level excuses.
