Only 6-0?? I'd want more. On the level of Albion Rovers 11-1 would suffice, although I would demand the sacking of the defence and goalkeeper for conceding a goal.

topcat Posted April 18, 2020 Report Share Posted April 18, 2020 The thing is would we not want to vent such feelings against those in the league we now depart rather than the new teams we shall meet. When voting in league 1 took place those teams were not really thinking about PTFC. For us that would be QOS, Alloa and Greenock Morton. To do the same against Dumbarton for instance would seem counter-productive in a way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a few teams in 1st division were maybe voting yes as it means Falkirk and Thistle in the league next season..i know Forfar chairman touched on it last week before back tracking. Everyone has there own views but i will be giving away games a miss and i love an away day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allyo Posted April 18, 2020 Report Share Posted April 18, 2020 Embarrassing, in the current situation, for Thistle to be associated with words such as "revenge". The entire country (or world) is in crisis and people are pulling together in heroic ways to support each other. In that context this sounds pathetic. It's a debate for another day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could stream a classic game too, maybe get a player in each week from that game for a Q&A and photos etc? Could do that before the actual game although live lunchtime EFL games might bring folk in earlier too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think anybody on here or in the letter has used the word “revenge.” It’s the headline the Herald have used. I think it’s perfectly reasonable for people to discuss how fans should respond to what is, frankly, a total injustice that could have serious repercussions for our club and it’s staff. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West of Scotland Posted April 18, 2020 Report Share Posted April 18, 2020 The idea of taking out local newspaper ads to announce our non-attendance of away games is embarrassing in the extreme. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harrybriscoe Posted April 18, 2020 Report Share Posted April 18, 2020 This is a Thistle forum, and as the club and fans are presently being treated abysmally by fellow members, then this is the time to discuss, not revenge, but appropriate action to let other clubs know we are sick of being regarded as the 'cuddly toy' of Scottish football. I hope selective games will be boycotted, although we needn't spend money on newspaper ads, and a donation made to the club by fans on away days. I know we have bigger worries at this time but I'm sure fans come on to the forum to talk football and exchange views regardless of what's happening in the bigger world. My partner, a nurse, is currently recovering from a Coved-19 infection and it's tragic the number of lives being lost, so don't say I'm selfish or don't care. It helps to cling on to a bit of normality and the forum helps fulfil that function. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you say better giving money to the club who lets face it are going to need every penny the longer this whole COVID19 goes on i hope your partner is making a full recovery mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whitelees jag Posted April 18, 2020 Report Share Posted April 18, 2020 Interesting interview on radio Scotland with Aberdeen chairman.said he received a call from Doncaster at 4.40pm so say that they now had the 9 votes they needed..Aberdeen hadnt voted at that point.Wonder who else he phoned.

Muscat Jag Posted April 18, 2020 Report Share Posted April 18, 2020 I'll be doing exactly as Allan Cowan suggests. I don't think it is in anything to do with revenge. I'm just so utterly sickened by Scottish football I want to turn my back on it for good. Not even sure if still going to games at Firhill is about continuing to support the Jags or just about a bevvy with mates. Revenge would only play a part if I thought for a second Thistle would have voted against closing the leagues had they sitting 9th. Self-interest would have kicked in. The system is truly ******.

policemans whistle Posted April 18, 2020 Report Share Posted April 18, 2020 I think we must be very careful at this moment. We will be going round these clubs asking them to vote for re-construction of the leagues, please let us not upset the applecart. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
