Sivad Posted June 3, 2018 Report Share Posted June 3, 2018 I remember the back streets of Naples Two children, begging in rags Each filled with a burning ambition To come to Glasgow and play for the Jags The Harry Wraggs, the greatest team, you've ever seen ... 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lady-isobel-barnett Posted June 3, 2018 Report Share Posted June 3, 2018 A little less of the jocularity, please. Can I just remind you all on today's date, back around the time when yon lassie that Sarstedt sings about was traipsing around France, a very sad event took place on the other side of the ocean. Yes, on this sleepy dusty day, 3rd of June, Billie Joe MacAlister threw himself off the Tallahatchie Bridge. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BowenBoys Posted June 3, 2018 Report Share Posted June 3, 2018 Would be nice to see the new signings parades in the new kit. Would be good marketing. When do we get the new kit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When do we get the new kit? From the minutes of the last PTFC Trust meeting the kits for this season have already been chosen. The issue will be sponsorship as we can't launch the new tops until a sponsor is in place. I am sure Ross will be all over that but not knowing if we were a Premiership or Championship side until the last day does not help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BowenBoys Posted June 3, 2018 Report Share Posted June 3, 2018 Ross County launched their new kit 10 days after relegation was confirmed. I suppose if we launch ours this week, we won't be too far behind them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weebaw1 Posted June 3, 2018 Report Share Posted June 3, 2018 The lovely Debbie Harry sang a song dedicated to our gangly magnificent winger of the seventies. I wonder if he ever paid her a visit to show his appreciation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it another standard dull Joma template? Here is hoping for some more creativity and edgy or retro design. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the minutes: 2018/19 Kit: this has been chosen as part of ongoing JOMA contract, which limits the scope for the design of the kit. However, there is potential to allow supporters to have a say the season after next (2020-21) to mark the 50th and 100th anniversaries of Thistle’s significant cup wins Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
