SerieA Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 Looking forward to this tonight. Should be another cracking atmosphere. Cant see Thistle team changing much from Airdrie game on Friday. God knows how we’ll line up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ohnononowheredidRossgo Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 I feel like I’m going to soil myself with fear and anticipation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AllanJM Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 I've even resorted to listening to a Thistle podcast for my lunchtime dog walk just to get more build up for this. To be fair "Draw, Lose or Draw" is a decent listen. Like the idea of bringing an opposition fan in for their take on it. Agree with pretty much everything @Broken Algorithms said on there too 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevoraith Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 Ticket sales do look slightly disappointing but I’m one of the ones who won’t be there- if it had been Friday night or Saturday I’d have been there but a Tuesday night is no good for getting the kids home (probably be 11pm-ish getting back to Kirkcaldy) and up for school the next day. And I don’t really want to go on my own…. At least it’s on the telly though and hopefully those that make it through will create a cracking atmosphere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scary Bear Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 1 hour ago, AllanJM said: I'm actually a wee bit disappointed with the ticket sales to be honest. I do understand there are a number of reasons for it. - Limited public transport options - Folk on a tight budget can't afford to pay for potentially 4 games in a little over a week so will have to choose which to go to - Less kids going due to it being a school night (my 8yo would normally be there but isn't going tonight for that reason) Hopefully, we still get close to selling them all though. - Rovers have had 7 goes at the play-offs with no success. - it’s on TV - a lot of kids have clubs midweek. My boy is going but he’s missing swimming to go. -It’s an away midweek game …probably not many birthday parties. That’s a bonus. If we actually get through against Thistle and make the final against St Johnstone/Ross County, then I’ll likely miss the Sunday game due to a kids football tournament. What can you do? Anyway, there’ll be somewhere between 1200 and 1500 of us in that old stand cheering for Rovers. Let’s do this! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Totally understandable and won't criticise you or anyone else in your position. My son isn't happy that he's not getting to go but it's just too late for him in my (and more importantly my wife's) opinion. He's even more annoyed that I'm still going without him though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are spaces but it is paid parking. You may or may not get a ticket if you don’t pay but have never seen wardens about in the evenings. used to be free after 6 and they changed it to 10 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oneteaminglasgow Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 Absolutely gutted to not be attending this first leg, and also absolutely shitting myself. Honestly thought I’d be calmer as I’m not expecting much, but here we are. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to park for free on the residential street opposite the Colin Weir Stand (Springbank St?). Granted, my last game at Firhill was the Challenge Cup semi in 2020. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if it will be busy with it being a midweek game and the beer garden won't be busy with the weather. Don't see there being any issues with a few away fans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If u don't want to go to Munns u can always go into the Aitken Suite below the Colin Weir stand in Firhill where you are situated & they welcome in away fans 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigMadMental Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 4 hours ago, NavyBlueArmy1876 said: Is there a reason Partick no longer sell the section of seats next to the directors box, or the seats in front to away supporters? Seems strange to give a 1,500 allocation for a stand that holds around 1,900 it can be opened if needed, Dundee United used it. They sell the two bigger areas first. Normally you will see players friends and family, and misc. staff from both clubs, sitting there too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, it’s not the case for all streets nearby. There are parking restrictions in force down near the Woodside Inn, and they’ve started to put meters in up on the streets opposite Munn’s as well, but I’ve never seen anyone out checking for tickets during a Thistle game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CALDERON Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 I can't make it down tonight, both ties being midweek have meant having to prioritise one for a sharp finish. Think 1.3k is good going tbh, it's prob at least 3 times as much as we'd usually take. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JagsCG Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 Can't imagine we don't line up the same way as we had in the last game, only potential change might be Bannigan for Neilson but even then I very much doubt Doolan does that. Hopefully another cracking atmosphere at Firhill tonight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
