I like Henderson, in fact argued a lot with a good few last season defending him. He works well with Spencer but I believe Tait has the class to improve us again. His presence will ensure the midfield Hendo, Spencer and Nesbitt will need to perform week in week out. Which has to be good. 

100% agreed on that. Lets see what he brings to the team off the bench first though. This isnt the game for changes

So, Hamilton Accies made it as difficult as f*ck for our fans to go to the game at NDP and our fans had to come to TFS to get a paper ticket and then travel to Hamilton for the game. Meanwhile, we are giving the Accies' fans a PATG option?

And our fans who decide to go to the game at the last minute DON'T have a PATG option?

Just sayin' like.

Surely it's impossible to offer PATG when there are only a couple hundred tickets left - if it sells out 20 minutes before the game you are getting people turned away having travelled all the way there. I think its better fans know in advance before travelling if they will be able to watch the game or not.

With the number of tickets already sold, I don't think the club had any choice in that. Couldn't risk potentially a few hundred folk turning up that couldn't get in.

There is still the ability to buy tickets in the shop and online until kick off, which is better than having people queuing at a turnstile for tickets that may be sold out imo.

If that is the case then I stand corrected.

God that all sounds so familiar.  It’ll pass, but don’t stop going to home games - lack of gate receipts won’t help.

Ach it's all cyclical, you only enjoy the highs when you live through the lows eh? If i've not chucked it after all these years I never will. There's definitely better things to do on a Saturday but it just wouldn't be the same without a couple of pints and the Accies.

Is there not still an option to open up the right hand side of the North Stand if absolutely necessary?

Don't quite think it’ll get to that though….

Correct, although I think it should just be an online option now as we could have queues of people outside the shop tomorrow that may not get in.

I don’t think it will be needed either but no Jamie Swinney has posted on Twitter tonight to say the NS will be for Accies only. 

I can see section H of the main stand on sale first thing tomorrow though.

I think in theory that could happen but Jamie Swinney has confirmed on Twitter that it won’t due to the recent crowd trouble.

I actually can’t ever remember the north stand being segregated (unless I’m forgetting) as the need has never arisen- we have always maxed out at around the 6000 home fan mark for previous big matches at TFS.

For a game in the third tier of Scottish football.

WE. ARE. FUCKING. MASSIVE.

It can be segregated inside yeah. We did it for a few games in the SPL days versus ICT, Gretna etc.

If you had nothing left to play for this season I may agree but you’re second in the league, not completely out of it if you win on Saturday, and have a serious chance of promotion through the playoffs anyway if you can refind some form. Poor show from too many of your fellow accies supporters tbh…….

We have been out of the title race for a while now and have absolutely zero chance of winning the playoffs as long as Rankin is in charge. This is a meaningless game and would probably be better in the long run if we got battered so it's another step closer (hopefully the last step) of getting Rankin sacked. The league's is Falkirks. I'm still going tomorrow but aren't expecting much and expect it to be a very long and depressing afternoon for us.

Can’t see plod agreeing to that at this stage. Clubs have operational meetings 2/3 days before games so all arrangements will be settled there

These Hamilton fans are ridiculous. They’re about 3 points off where the all conquering Fifers were at this stage last year. Fickle overreaction.  

That’s it, a similar points per game return for Rankin next season probably wins them the league!

Has anyone else got the absolute fear? I'm fucking buzzing but 

Understand exactly where you’re coming from. So many Fckn let downs, still get the odd ICT semi final early morning wake up call. Trying desperately to get the mindset tomorrow “only another league game”

With so many points still to play for, and Montrose soon after tomorrow, it could be so all so positively different on Tuesday at the end of the game.
