jaggy Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 Sadly I'll miss Saturday's game due to being on holiday. Hope it happens though and it's a meaningful goal. Would love Dools or Squiddy to score it, but don't really care as long as it's a winner (or the first of many in the match) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eljaggo Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 Would an OG count? If so, who would you most like to score it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guy, Tumility, who scored against us in last month's game. I'd like it to be a clumsy avoidable OG at that. Showing no ability or agility, a lesson in humility for Tumility. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Jukebox Rebel Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 Scenes Hilarity as no ability or agility from Tumility causes humility, despite Thistle's fragility. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaggernaut Posted August 29, 2018 Report Share Posted August 29, 2018 Anybody called Tumility must be seen as a liability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Auld Jag Posted September 1, 2018 Report Share Posted September 1, 2018 If I could chose anybody to score such a landmark goal and it wasn't to be Doolan Erskine would be my next choice and it gave us the 3points as well. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jukebox Rebel Posted September 4, 2018 Report Share Posted September 4, 2018 (edited) FFS, it's Tumilty not Tumility! My last post can get in the bin. Jaggy, you got your wish! #9000 could hardly have been more perfect. #9000 CHRIS ERSKINE 01.09.2018 Greenock Morton [h] W1-0 (SPFL Championship - game 4) Chris Erskine (1-0, 50 mins) 3,431 @ Firhill Going into this Firhill clash with 8,999 competitive goals behind them, the stage was set for one Thistle player to make some history, and with 7 of the previous 8 category landmark goals having contributed to victories, it was hoped that this run would continue. This was far from a given however, with a recently relegated Thistle having started the new season inconsistently. The pressure around the club was somewhat relieved 5 minutes into the second half; shooting towards the city end, some good work down the left resulted in a centre into the box which was met sweetly on the half-volley, 12 yards in front of goal, by Chris Erskine's left foot, the ball gloriously curving its way into the corner of the net. A thing of beauty, the strike was befitting of the 9000 competitive goal milestone, his easy, relaxed swing being all the more remarkable considering he was sandwiched in-between two blue and white hooped jerseys at the time. Clearly, you don't reach 56 competitive goals by chance! With his next goal for the club, Chris will overtake Maurice Johnston, Ronnie Glavin and Jim Melrose in our all-time competitive goals chart, and the fact that it was one of Thistle's key men of the 2010s era who registered as the ninth millenialist – with an actual match-winner – was as perfect as the goal itself.
