Jaggernaut Posted June 3, 2019 Report Share Posted June 3, 2019 Ex-Thistle player-manager Tommy Bryce once scored a hat-trick for Queen of the South in 1 minute and 46 seconds. He was signed for Queens by ex-Jag Nobby Clark. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted June 8, 2019 Report Share Posted June 8, 2019 Just back from hampden, utter pish, but go to see sod in the flesh again which was nice. Can I also add that Thistle would have given the mighty Cyprus a better game.

I just saw the highlights, so they are selective, but it looked like we had some really nice attacking play. The central defence seemed to have too many gaps for comfort, but I would expect the manager to get that sorted. Anyway, here's hoping the women can get a great result this evening.

Actually, I thought Scotland were excellent when they played at a tempo that upset Cyprus, but for the majority of the game they did seem to play an odd 'containment' game, and the main attacking play seemed to depend on wingers playing wide and then putting in crosses to players who were at a height disadvantage to the Cyprus defenders. IMO, had they played direct from midfield through the middle of the Cyprus defence, I think there would have been more goals. I will say the TV highlights made Scotland look a lot better than they actually were, and why that Scottish goalkeeper is the first choice is a mystery to me., his distribution [which you didn't see in the highlights] was almost laughable.
