With Collum in charge it will most likely be a feisty match on and off the pitch with his countless useless decisions annoying everyone in the stadium. It would send out a real message and give a massive confidence boost to everyone if we go out and get right stuck into them and sneak a win. Couldn’t make Alloa so I’m absolutely buzzing for this one hope it’s as memorable as the last meeting with United at firhill. Mon the jags. 100% this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Put in Thistlespeak, aspects of their logistical operations will hit us at the turnstiles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's one of the only refs I can mind that had both sets of fans singing the referee's a w4ncher simultaneously. Sure it was Thistle v Aberdeen.

Semi Nurainen Posted August 7, 2019 Report Share Posted August 7, 2019 As I said on another thread, if the crisis/no crisis is having the same effect on the players as it is on the fans, I am happy to absolve, in advance, Caldwell and the squad from anything up to four goal defeat on Friday. Strangely, by contrast, the bookies' odds have actually lengthened on an away win! Funny old game ( © James Peter Greaves, Esq.). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fear for the flow of the game with that clown in charge but finger crossed we turn up with the right attitude and get right in about them from the off. Not a minute to settle, get them on the back foot with some intensity. Can't come quickly enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't come quickly enough Exactly that, hoping we get stuck right in, shake them up a bit and give the crowd something to get them pumped up. Pressing high and starting the game on the front foot is an absolute must for this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lady-isobel-barnett Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 I too think we want to get stuck in. Even if we play three centrebacks we still want to take the game to them. The team that handles the under foot conditions the best will likely come out on top. With that in mind I'd go with....... Goalie.....Weissmuller A back three of... Goodhew, Wilkie & Phelps Wingbacks.... Crabbe & Cousteau Defensive mid......Nemo (Capt) Attacking midfield...Spitz, & Daley Upfront...... Hans & Lotte Hass 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not convinced we will play the better football but there is something in the way Caldwell, Miller, and others have been speaking, which seems to lend itself to a huge fighting spirit within the team. I think we will want this more and will get it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fawlty Towers Posted August 8, 2019 Report Share Posted August 8, 2019 For me Friday night is not about being pro/anti the old Board, pro/anti the new Board or pro/anti a takeover it is just about being PRO PARTICK THISTLE. The eleven guys on the pitch might not be the eleven best players to have played for our club but on Friday night we need to get right behind them and do whatever we can to help them get the result we all want.
