    I may be wrong but Partick then appealed to the SFA which was taken to Hampden. Early July (I think), was when David Taylor(?) made his statement about Partick having no grounds for appeal. Iain, Alison, Craig and Lesley Coia along with ITN were there that night. As were SKY tv.
  2. Had a good game when he came on and was very forward thinking IMO.
  3. How about Scott Hogan from Rochdale?? 19 goals this season and still only 21. Could be exactly what you are talking about. Just an opinion... Is he available for free? Because if not, it wouldn't happen. Ah, that old chestnut.... Small investment could reap big rewards.

  5. Kingsmills, you are not alone.
  6. Correction - Dalmarnock does indeed seem to be open on Sundays. My bad.
  7. Bridgeton is pretty nearby too, as some trains don't stop at Dalmarnock on a Sunday.
  8. Get the fans to turn up!!

    Easiest player on the park to blame is the keeper after heavy defeats. Sadly he was let down by the majority of those in front of him. Those are the guys who should be looked at and dropping players is really detrimental to morale. He needs a good shut out on Wenesday then he'll feel better.

    Have to agree. He's pulled off a few good decisions like that. Keep them coming Yogi!
  11. Is a Union Jack wise?? Might not be suitable after September......
  12. You only know 7000, stop exaggerating....

    I couldn't agree more. Considering the abuse a lot of players take, it's a wonder more of them haven't let rip on social media.
  14. It was for that very reason that the Premier League was formed in 75/76. That could well happen again, although many 1st Division clubs would argue they would rather be in a "meaningless" SPL than a "competitive" 1st Division. One problem with reconstruction is that many SPL clubs outwith the OF don't want it. They would rather have the prospect of "extra" home matches with the OF and hence increased gate money. Add to that they would get less cash from Sky and ESPN, then you have a recipe for status quo.

    Might travel to this one. Anyone know the prices??
  16. Mr_W replied to Harry Chibber's topic in Caley Thistle
    and that one :D And what about Arbroath last season.... :D
  17. Will that include students as concessions? <<crosses fingers in hope>>
  18. ?55 + ?6 booking fee I believe. I tried checking the Dundee website but they have nowt on there either.
  19. For me, Alex, it has nothing to do with players moving from us to Livi. That being the case then we'd have to despise a lot of teams!! No, it's more that the lessons of the last time weren't taken on board. They got out of it last time by paying 2p in the ? and to be honest, it's even more of an insult now to be in a similar situation. Partick were heading for a similar fate a few years back and stood their ground, got a bit of finance in order, unlike the garbage Massone subjected Livi to, and paid of creditors virtaully the full amount. By doing this they took the hit and languished in the lower leagues. Livi want the cake, and eat it too. As has been said, the Scottish League set the precedent with Gretna, and had to follow likewise. As for gloating and the possibility it could happen to us, indeed it could. Thankfully, life isn't always about the "what if" scenario, and as a result investments and gambles are to be made in football clubs. I don't want to see clubs going to the wall, but if it's run badly as a business, then in the current economic climate, it's ineviitable that it will happen.
  20. A step closer to the end then.
  21. Somehow this thread has veered off topic bigtime. Once again we're talking about singing sections and lack of atmosphere. Here's how I see it. It's a football match. No matter where you sit, there will always be dissenters to noise makers. BOTH groups of supporters have to tolerate each other. If you chant, as long as you aren't OTT abusive of offensive, then there is no prerequisite to be ejected from the ground. Ignore the sweetie rustlers and carry on. They soon get fed up. If you are a sweetie rustler, and not many on here will be, then accept that there will be people who want to be somewhat vociferous, and will make noise. Allow it to happen. If you don't it will create bad feeling amongst ourselves which is EXACTLY what we have to avoid. As for terracing, yes, singers will congregate. However, as we'll be playing in front of reduced crowds, home and away probably, then I see no reason why this may not happen in seated areas too. IHE was right. The club perhaps have learned from the past 5 years and this WILL help us in our next visit to the top flight. If any players out there think that the 1st Division is easy, then a rude awakening will hit them in the first game. As a support, we have to unite and create whatever atmosphere we can, home and away, and let the players know that we're there with them, in good and bad, and they in turn may produce results that can see us in pole position at the end of the season. The players know only too well that they may get criticised for poor performances too. BELIEVE!!

    We usually head for Cadgers Brae. Not too far from the ground and just off the M9. Unless someone knows of somewhere better?
  23. Bear in mind that it also affects the top half too. Rangers have had three games at Pittodrie in recent seasons as a result. It would appear that the plan would be for each club to have as close to the equal number of Home and Away over the season, so it can lead to advantages to some clubs when home games are allocated after the split.
  24. Bear in mind Falkirk were without Arfield and Higdon.... Might travel for this one if I can get out of working. Will it be Cadgers Brae for a pre-match aperitif???
