I like laughing at Morton as much as the next guy, but Strapp is a very decent player. If we never had Milne, I’d have taken him in a heartbeat. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just had a look at the highlights and the Raith ones as well. Hadn’t really appreciated that the advertising on the Colin Weir side is fixed as opposed to the JHS which is on these moveable ones. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t claim to watch him week in an out of course but I have never once noticed him doing anything positive against us other than launching in his big throws. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sting777 Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 This must be the most Mutton supporter free zone in a game that they have been involved with.. They are never short of giving their views when their team is on a run and getting results. Poor dears must have taken yesterday bad!! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunning1874 Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 Singling out Strapp as a poor performer is an outrageous take. He was the only one of our starting XI to get pass marks yesterday and was our only attacking threat until Garrity came on, subbing him was an admission the game was done. Looking at the highlights, the first goal is even worse from Power than it seemed at the time. Madness to try to bring that down rather than getting rid of it first time. The second goal is just far too easy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pie Of The Month Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 I might join the Morton forum and post in that 'reasons why I hate Partick Thistle' thread "the guy who keeps trying to make Mutton a thing on P&B". 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Toon Posted March 17 Share Posted March 17 6 hours ago, Dunning1874 said: Garrity beat McMillan and got crosses in several times, when no one had gotten by a full back before his introduction. Hard to judge in a way because the game was obviously done at 2-0 and Partick were happy to let us have the ball so we might not have looked as immediately drastically better after the subs had they happened at 1-0, but regardless Garrity offered more in his first five minutes on the park than Muirhead has in the last five games. McGrattan was quieter, but to some extent that comes with the territory of playing on the right with O'Connor behind you as opposed to being on the left with Strapp overlapping. He was about score a tap-in at the back post from a corner soon after coming on, but Baird got in the way. The game had become a frantic mess at the point Bearne came on, but he at least tried to run at the full back and he won a couple of corners, which was again more than anyone in the starting XI achieved. Garrity needs to start next week. Thanks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strapp is a very good left back at this level. He's more than just a long throw. Would be surprised if he isn't playing at a higher level next season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did he get injured or something after he left Morton in the summer? It seems odd he didn’t get an opportunity at a Premiership club given he was a free agent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You lost on Saturday - a feeling you're used to against us - but you had some players out, and your still in a decent position to get a top four place. Moaning about some advertising hoardings in embarrassing - I'm sure you've NEVER tried to get a LEGAL competitive advantage (smaller, narrower pitch perhaps)? These snottery tears are pathetic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alibi Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 (edited) If the rules stipulate a minimum of 5m clearance from touchline to hoarding, is that not sufficient for a run up to a throw in? How much room do you need? Especially as could presumably get a good start by pushing against the hoarding. I doubt the clearance from the Cowshed perimeter wall at Cappielow is any more than 5m, if it’s even that. if Partick didn’t have the required clearance from the touchline, presumably the referee should not have accepted the pitch as satisfactory for the game to start. Would be a laugh if they were penalised or told to play the game again… Edited March 18 by Alibi 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunning1874 Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 All the rules stipulate is one metre, there was nothing against the rules in bringing them that close in and nothing against the rules in Strapp moving them when they were in his way. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was injured last season and took over the summer and the start of this season to get fit. He was rumoured to be training with Kilmarnock and St.mirren but ended up back at Cappielow. A lot of mortin fans assumed he was only signed short term in December and would be away to killie in January. Pleasantly surprised that he extended his deal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneteaminglasgow Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 We’ve had our fair share of boardroom incompetence, but I’d like to think we’d have checked we were definitely allowed to move the hoardings before doing it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At Cappielow I don't think there is a 5 metre space between the pitch and the walls at any point. Maybe just behind the goal ends but I doubt it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your right ,it is .5m minimum distance between hoarding boards and touchline ....at the end of the day wee Strapp moved them to suit so everybody happy . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
