🔴🟡Thistle vs Dunfermline⚫️⚪️ - 21st September 2024

[Chubbychops]

FFS. Young centre backs were in for a tough game with Brian Graham today as it was,  but now have to do it with Mehmet in goal. Mehmet does nothing but spead fear and chaos in the backline with his indecision and paper thin confidence.

Enjoy the win, Jags.

I've no idea how we're lining up today. 

Hopefully McPake is the same

[Parscelona]

Would take a point with that clown back in goals

[Fuctifano]

According to Jagzone commentary it's a 3-4-2-1 with Ablade and Fitzpatrick behind Graham.

I fear, once again, we are galaxy braining this.

Why the f**k is Mehmet back in the team if Oluwayemi is ok to be on the bench?

He's not really considered that fit,  we've still named briggs so there must be doubts if he can even play as a sub.

[DAFC.]

Aye, Briggs would not be in the squad if Oluwayemi had a chance of playing. Tells you all you need to know about where Breen and MOH are in the pecking order when they don't even make the bench. 

[parsforlife]

Breen surely should be loaned out before the month is over. 

Still think there might be some room for o'halloran but not sure mcpake agrees,  He offered something when he came on in the league cup games but has been frozen out since.

Fits in with what I was told in the Old Inn last Saturday that we're trying to loan both of them out to bring in another player. Not a fan of either. Breen was OK for League 1 . 

[oneteaminglasgow]

First 10 minutes we started very quickly, but since then, while we’ve remained dominant, very little has happened. Just a succession of soft free kicks being given to either side. 

Pars look there for the taking if we can get our final ball right. 

[Hammer Jag]

This is beyond terrible. Dunfermline make Imrie’s Morton look like Barcelona, when we have the ball we’re clueless and the referee has completely lost control.

 

[Cardle is Magic]

Fogarty and Wotherspoon are great last week so of course they go off injured in the next game.

[Reid]

Blowing the half time when the ball is out for a corner is a bizarre call.

[Fuctifano]

Started well but once Dunfermline sussed our formation it's been worse than turgid and looks like 1-0 either way. Ref decided to treat the first 15 minutes like a Jean Claude van Damme film and is now penalising either side when they breathe on an opponent, must have been about ten fouls from 40 minutes onwards.

edit: this is maybe better in the things you hate about football thread but refs ignoring blatant bookings because it's in the first 5 minutes boils my piss.  Ends up with the players guessing what is and isn't a foul / booking which is probably how we've got to this point in this particular game.

[DAFC.]

And there it is. McPake, you can get yourself to f*ck. 

[18BAIRN76]

 But…. But I thought they were back cause they beat 10 men?

[0neTeamInGlasgow]

That Mehmet is a great keeper haha

[DAFC.]

We are f**king brutal. How bad must Raith be to get beat off that? McPake should have been gone ages ago, but the nature of the way things are at board level, he'll keep his job. This is going to be one of those seasons you are hoping two other teams are, somehow, worse than you. 

[Fuctifano]

Dunfermline goalkeepers have been a great source of points for us these last few years. That was even more of a 0-0 than the Morton game on day 1, Fitzpatrick should absolutely have passed it to Milne rather than shoot but our boy Deniz did the rest.

[Cardle is Magic]

Goalless draw would have been a decent result but a real kick in the nuts to lose so late on.

Lose to QP at EEP next week and McPake is right back where he started.

[Highlandmagar]

Thank god for the 3 points. Even if it's the scabby type.
