D.A.F.C Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 If they were top of the league I expect many people would 'support' them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuctifano Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Not my second favourite team tbh Also we've long since been replaced as "media darlings" by the likes of Livi, Gretna & Ross County Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pie Of The Month Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 We tend to get sympathy from fans of other clubs for sharing a city with the Old Firm but from my experience the gloryhunting weirdos who support a team miles away from them who haven't been anywhere near Glasgow are far worse than anything I have to deal with in Glasgow.

I'm mostly just fed up queuing outside your ground beyond the scheduled kickoff because we bring a decent crowd and your club aren't prepared.

Jacksgranda Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 I used to look forward to Aberdeen v Partick, anything was liable to happen and there were usually plenty of goals. Also they had in those days a very distinctive strip, which is a big plus for a team when you are only 10 years old. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Connolly Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Their ground has always been the closest senior ground to where I have lived, so for that reason I hate them less than every team outside United. I also had a soft spot for them after we nearly killed them by winning that play-off, but that feeling has dissipated since they are now ahead of us.

The Tackle Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 Yep. My second team but that's because I lived in Partick for a couple of years. Obviously when we play them I want Hearts to pump them but I went to a few games when we weren't playing or I couldn't afford a trip to the Highlands.

That was a once off with the kick off delayed and actually it was a good thing as you didn't miss any of the match. Yet another Morton fan hating on thistle. I'm presuming still angry about the 2012-13 season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul wright scores Posted November 29, 2016 Share Posted November 29, 2016 I can't stand Partick Thistle - I actually dislike them more than I dislike the old firm. Blame Bertie Auld for the totally negative anti football they played in the 70s and 80s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
