  1. For anybody who hasn't yet seen it, the Ladies' League Cup Final song is up on Youtube.
  2. Thanks; actually, that's what I thought it must have been. The kind of performance that makes you wonder about the officials' motivations.
  3. The PTWFC highlights show no controversial incidents at all. But having seen some of the other refereeing performances in these games, I wouldn't expect anything less than dire incompetence.
  4. All 18 players listed for Thistle on Saturday were Scottish. Isn't that pretty unusual these days?
  5. That's my view on the game as well. On the others: Mitchell had a couple of good saves, and looked comfortable throughout. Thought Milne was careless at times. The McMillan and Lawless partnership worked mostly well, for the first time in a while. Fitzpatrick made some good runs, one terrific one in the 2nd half; his final ball too often lets the move down. Muirhead: had a good game. Neilsen: I'd rather see him where he played yesterday than as a central defender. BBG: worked hard throughout, unlucky his first burst through the defence and shot at goal wasn't placed slightly better. McInroy worked hard too, with some effective harrying of the opposition, not giving them time on the ball. A better performance than of late.
  6. Definitely. As soon as one goes out for a shy, another immediately gets thrown onto the park from somewhere
  7. Got a feeling that a underwhelming draw is tomorrow's fate.
  8. Hmm,...... I thought his goal "celebration" at Hampden on Saturday looked, well..... let's say "muted."
  9. Just watched the RR highlights, and frankly we could/should have scored several goals. Their keeper had 3 good (if fairly comfortable) saves; we also hit the woodwork twice, and had two clear-cut chances that were sliced/blasted off-target (Fitzpatrick, Diack). Apart from having to scramble to recover from two mistakes (one a miscommunication with the defender, one due a miskick of a bobbling ball), Mitchell had virtually nothing to do, and was blameless for the goal. In fact, apart from yet another fatal failure to deal with a standard ball into our box, the defence pretty much seemed to have Rovers under their thumb. Another sore one, but has been mentioned, we are pretty predictable, and I think that changes should have been made earlier. The team is definitely on a downer at the moment; has been since the turn of the year. Failure to win on Saturday will lower the mood and expectations even more, as well as the crowds.
  10. It's absolutely abominable. Every single time, the opposition has all the time in the world to get their defence ready to block the inevitable over- or under-hit final pass forward after our series of totally pointless sideways or backward passes. And don't mention the frequent, aimless punts.....! Teams long ago sussed out Lawless: just get two on him so that he can't cut inside, and he doesn't have the pace to outrun the younger guys on the outside any more. Well, he managed it once near the very end, and we almost scored from that. Both Lawless and Fitzpatrick contribute to the negative play by actually running backwards and waiting motionless on the wing to receive a mostly sideways past. Force them to do that and any threat we pose is largely nullified, because the defenders can prepare. I'm a tactical numpty, but if even I can see that, then other teams do.
  11. That referee against (change that to for) Hearts was jaw-droppingly bad. The question is, how can somebody like that (and his "assistants") be allowed to officiate?
  12. Got to say: the quality of the images is superb.
  13. A cheap way to finally get rid of that "friend" you've been wanting to lose for a long time!
  14. Good to see that the big crowd didn't put him off!
  15. The defence definitely looked more solid last week, so I hope that Doolan makes no unnecessary changes for tomorrow. I also hope that if Diack gets brought on he won't be stranded out on the wing the way he has been of late. I remember when Doolan was playing he sometimes was told to do that, and he was pretty ineffective out there. You'd think he should be able to see that Diack is an out and out striker, as he proved not so long ago. Stranding him out on the wing is a waste of his potential. Anyway. 2-0 win for Thistle!
