  1. He did referee our championship winning game v Falkirk! Although those who watched the Under 20’s years ago he had a brutal one at Hamilton!
  2. Excellent summary - the assistant, Stuart Stevenson, realised what had happened after James made his appeal after the goal was scored and did not motion towards the half way line. There was 3 way communication via the comms with Euan Norris and other Assistant Alisdair Ross before they agreed that basically the assistant should not have stopped JC from taking away the ball but did so and had the guts to admit to it
  3. Highest score I have ever seen came at Springburn Park - reserve league fixture Partick Thistle 10 Stranraer 4!
  4. Sadly we are both poised and ready for action at a freezing Firhill!
  5. No - that was Scott Lambie - yesterday’s ref was Grant Irvine
  6. Never played for the first team but James McLachlan is a huge Thistle fan. Reserve player in the Lambie era
  7. Certainly not for the good of Viaplay going by recent events!
  8. Another piece of Partick Thistle history departs the scene and with it some lovely memories! A terrier like player who had a very steady career with several clubs and then becoming Thistle manager where his timing was lousy! He had to take over just after relegation and 2 near misses with promotion. He had a total rebuild to oversee and thankfully we did enough to avoid falling further down the ladder. Alongside his trusted lieutenant Mike Jackson he uncovered a few wee gems to wear the strip (a rather plain one sadly!) including the very talented John Donnelly, who must be up there in terms of most skilled players. Benny is strongly associated with Morton but he will also be remembered as a very strong team man for the Jags and that will go down in history. incidentally it changes the answer to the question of who is our oldest living manager - that honour which Benny held now passes on to Peter Cormack. God Bless Benny Rooney
  9. You can’t change the order of the first 5 - after that it’s do as you please!
  10. As seats are not allocated it cuts down on the capacity per stand
  11. As the tickets were sold as unreserved seating you cannot sell the full capacity - you need to miss out on a number. I think it’s 1800 capacity compared to 2000 - definitely better to have unreserved seating here as it allows groups of friends to join up and create the sensational .atmosphere it was
  12. Refs for the tie home - David Munro away - Nick Walsh vAR at Firhill - Andrew Dallas VAR at Dingwall - Greg Aitken
  13. I thought everyone knew all of that already! 😉
  14. There is a difference of opinion as to his hat trick at Inverness a while back. The official sources at the club believe it to be a hat-trick (as confirmed by the referee!) while TTA attributes one of his goals to an own goal! A small difference of opinion here!
  15. It’s Danny who is our second kit man - does a power of work helping Paul out
  16. It’s not the SFA it’s the SPFL who get a substantial slice of the cake
  17. Saw my first game 47 years ago - delighted to have been involved as you say for over 30 years and although there have been a few low points - the high’s more than make up for it. Partick Thistle is a truly extraordinary club with amazing people, and long may it enjoy entertaining these fans. I am delighted to have played a very small part in trying to make it as good a place as possible to enjoy your 90 minutes. It’s been very humbling.
  18. When I first read the OP I thought - hang on they are making this up, nobody sent an email in 1891! as usual a brilliant read - this website is the daddy of Partick Thistle websites! Cap doffed again!
  19. Our ref is Chris Graham on Friday
  20. I’m sure it was Montrose 1991-92 season - third last game of the season which we won 1-0. Sadly got players booked and injured so we’re a shadow for final 2 games at home to Meadowbank and Forfar (1 point from the 2 games - but what a point!)
  21. Don’t think Rangers were in our division that season!! I’m sure that was from promotion season - an injury that kept ‘Zac out of the Forfar game. ETA - maybe Meadowbank at home penultimate game of the season?
  22. And I’m sure the referee is the late Bobby Orr
