Pie Of The Month Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 Clean sheet for Mason McCready today as Gretna beat Broomhill 1-0. Slight improvement for them after conceding 64 goals in their previous 15 league games. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneteaminglasgow Posted November 4, 2023 Share Posted November 4, 2023 Very glad for Wasiri Williams that he's put in a couple of very solid performances in a row now. Obviously, it's only two games and he might never put it together on a consistent enough basis, but I think it shows that there's definitely something there and he's not a completely lost cause. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seemed to have a slow start for his Irish team then came onto form. Hopefully can keep building his confidence as he has the physical presence to be a decent defender at this level. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will he get the chance if McMillan is fit again for next week ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's definitely a player there. You could tell in the away end how much every thistle fan wants him to do well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightmare Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 If McMillan is fit and ready to play then he has to start. He’s the best RB in the league and vital to how we play. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneteaminglasgow Posted November 5, 2023 Share Posted November 5, 2023 Aye if McMillan is fit he has to play, but if I see Williams on the team sheet I won’t be getting the absolute fear the way I might’ve a few weeks ago. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Thistle Archive Posted November 9, 2023 Share Posted November 9, 2023 Match Lists (Men's Reserves) → Our immense undertaking continues and, per below, we're very pleased to be introducing another 18 seasons of reserve team matches, from the mid 90s to the mid 10s, complete with a tremendous number of potted match reports wherever it's been possible. Not a single match in 1997-98 was a sign of the skint times. A Premier League double over Rangers in 2003-04 was noteworthy, as was a strong League Cup showing in 2007-08. As for striking gold, we'll need to settle for annexing the 'Stonehouse Violet Challenge Cup' in 2011-12! Interesting to chart the evolution of the likes of Archibald and Bannigan... 1995-96 1996-97 1997-98 1998-99 1999-00 2000-01 2001-02 2002-03 2003-04 2004-05 2005-06 2006-07 2007-08 2008-09 2009-10 2010-11 2011-12 2012-13 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deserves huge respect. We know similar to Kyle Turner last year he has a lot to deal with regarding the health of a loved one. Both very brave players 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacky1990 Posted November 11, 2023 Share Posted November 11, 2023 Where does Brian Graham rank in our best signings of the last decade? Has scored loads and bams up the opposition and their fans at a god-tier level. Cant be many better. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has scored loads and bams up the opposition and their fans at a god-tier level. Cant be many better. In the last decade, I’m struggling to think of (m)any better signings. I think he’s surpassed Tomas Cerny as the king of the WUMs, and in terms of actual contribution on the pitch he’s right up there as well. Other big contributors - Higgy, Taylor, Cerny, the return of Erskine. Graham has arguably outperformed any of them, albeit they were all in the top flight whereas he’s unfortunately never experienced that with Thistle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given how many times we tried to sign him under Archibald the first impression is that it's a waste that we never had him then. But he'd have been competing with Doolan which would have eaten into game time and for all of his Indian summer with us, he never properly cracked it in the Premiership with a number of clubs so there's every chance he'd have had one season, 5 goals and then moved on. However if we'd had him rather than Kenny Miller for the "whole" of the abandoned covid season I don't think we'd have gone down. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again Sammon scored a few, however didn't have the other things Graham brings to his game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfox Posted November 12, 2023 Share Posted November 12, 2023 (edited) I haven't been a big fan of Blair Alston so far. Probably a bit hyper-critical on my part. His runs into the box are reminiscent of The Ghost, Albert Craig. Edited November 12, 2023 by jagfox 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Fitzpatrick hangs around and keeps up his current form, then bringing him back could be up there for me. Best signing we’ve made for immediate impact was Scott Tiffoney. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said this yesterday, maybe he just needs a wee run of things to get into the rhythm of the team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
