New thread for 2015, a place where we can all keep a watchful eye on all the current streaks, blips and whatnots... 04.01.2015 Partick Thistle 2 Dundee United 2 (SPFL Premiership - game 19) Injury-ravaged Thistle list only 5 League substitutes for the first time since seven subs were allowed in our Division. Seven subs were introduced to the Top Flight in season 2004-05 - the season after the Jags were relegated. Seven subs were introduced to the second tier in season 2013-14 - the season after the Jags were promoted! Last time we had 5 subs for a League match was on the 4th May 2013 when we drew 0-0 at The Rock. Funnily enough, that game and today's represent Liam Lindsay's only 2 starts! Ten Scots start for Thistle for the first time since 16th March 2013 when we beat Hamilton 2-0 away. Conrad was our only non-Scot on that occasion too. Declan gets his first competitive start for the club. Abdul misses a Thistle game for the first time, ending his brilliant run which began at The Rock in July 2014. Scott Boyd stands as the last Jag to appear in all competitive matches of a season, achieved back in 2006-07. Gary, Ryan and Stephen now lead the way with 9 consecutive appearances each. Partick Thistle have now played 25 competitive games without repeating a W-D-L outcome, an unprecedented 26 game sequence which stretches from 3rd May 2014 to date. This is by far the longest run of its kind. The closest such "freak streak" happened between April to October 1920 when we played 15 competitive games without repeating a W-D-L outcome, a 16 game sequence which stretched from Sat-24-Apr-1920 to Sat-02-Oct-1920. Thistle are now 4 games unbeaten at Firhill. Liam is now 3 competitive games unbeaten as a first team Jag. 7 yellows is the highest card count in a Thistle game since 23rd November 2013 when there were 8 yellows and 2 reds. Versus? Dundee United! Thistle are now 18 Premiership games without a win in the disciplinary stakes. Thistle finished bottom of the Premiership Fair Play table in 2013-14 and are currently on course to do so again, with 47 yellows and 2 reds in just 19 games.
