DA Baracus Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 We round out Septmber with a third away trip of the month (in the league; it's four if you include the Challenge Cup). We had a very encouraging result and performance today, which we also had last week. Partick had a great one last week but were pumped at Firhill today by Arbroath 0-3. We'll still be without Mehmet, Breen, Benedictus, Tod, Todd and KRH, but have a really good starting XI and a couple of good options off the bench (alongside some unproven youth players). Partick fans can speak to their team/squad, but I'm hoping for another away win next week obviously. Thought we were quite unlucky in the Scottish Cup early in the year (Hamilton's chance!) but played quite well. Think we're probably better now though. Anyway, see you in the Woody/Munn's/Star and Garter/the canal path. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardle is Magic Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Good opportunity for us to go get another three points but wouldn’t see a draw as a poor result by any means. Should be the last game I’m not able to watch live until December. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I Clavdivs Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 (edited) Play like we did yesterday the points will surely be going East again. Hopefully MacMillan back at right back shoreing up that glaring gap ,however, big worry is defensive midfield... Williamson must get a crack at it again ? Big change needed also in mental attitude and desire to win which we were devoid of yesterday with possible exceptions of Fitzpatrick and Lawless .

The Toun Clock Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 Looking forward to it, have missed the last few weeks due to previous arrangements. Was choking to go yesterday but couldn’t make it so heading to Firhill now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jagfox Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 A big test for Kris Doolan and his team. Yesterday we were second best and there was little, if anything to take from a pretty abject performance. My straw clutchings centre around that we cannot play that badly again and I feel the players within the squad will not be happy with their performance either. Also the Cinch Championship is a bat crazy league. We do have talent but the players need to show it. I think it could be a decent game, as we don't do defending but can score, usually. Pars seem to have found a nice seem of form and confidence is a big thing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ptfc. 22 Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 Every single season we have a few shocking back to back losses at firhill. Think this might be it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wacky Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 I’m going to service the bike this week while on holiday and take it on its last outing of the year to firhill. From what I’ve seen of the jags this season and they’re not to be taken lightly, and will be looking to redeem themselves at home against us. As for the Pars, you can see our latest lineup is gelling nicely and growing in confidence. It was a fantastic three points against a decent Morton, so we’ll be looking for another three in this game. I think this will be a bit tougher away from home, but I still think we’ll have enough about us to bring the three points back to the kingdom 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salvo Montalbano Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 Are we in the old Main Stand again I take it? Not a huge fan if we're getting stuck in there but yesterday has me thinking of heading through. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Toun Clock Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 Any idea if the tickets aren’t on sale yet? I’ve navigated to the page for the match on Thistle’s website, but the click here part doesn’t seem to lead to anywhere. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 No reason why we can't get all 3 points here. We're on great form, scoring goals, taking names. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're on great form, scoring goals, taking names. I feel quite confident looking at our score and Thistle’s score from the weekend. That being said, the last few years Firhill hasn’t been a happy hunting ground, in fact I’ve seen us throw up some utter mince at Firhill. My first game at Firhill was a 4-0 thumping in December 2002. I remember going to the game thinking an away win was the only thing on the cards, I would have just turned 11 and I’m sure Partick Thistle were the “newbies” to the league (could be wrong) so I was a tad naive. However, I didn’t expect to be on the end of the rout. I was at the 0-3 Scottish Cup 1/4 final game on the road to the final the following season which was great. However, I’ve also seen us emptied 5-1 there as the financial issues began to creep into knowledge (although we did win 0-1 in the Scottish Cup a few weeks later), was at the mad 3-3 game where we needed the win and they were having a title party and certainly a few others although sadly the ones that stick out are the most recent, and that’s a piss poor team under AJ weeks before he was binned and once under Yogi towards the end of the season before our relegation. I think Firhill must be one of my most visited away grounds, perhaps with Tannadice. Here’s hoping it’s a happy hunt on Saturday! Ben Summers masterclass incoming, 1-2. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 Looks utterly hellish playing against this Pars team. MoH was being cited as possibly McPake’s first recruitment mistake but his movement is a class above. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
da_no_1 Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 (edited) That last visit to Firhill with "Yogi" in charge still makes me angry.

Cardle is Magic Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 The 3-3 draw still annoys me. 3-1 up and safe and then chucked two points down the drain. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
