Can you guess what it is yet Rod?

So more compensation - what's that now - £375 ;-)

Éirinn go Brách ;-)

Should imagine the coaching team will be in the dugout at the weekend.

Thistle v Civil Service Strollers (Scottish Cup 1st Round) 1992 (3-1)

Clach v Thistle - 1991 Willie Callaghan and Davie Milroy (Thistle) / Gavin Dearie and Gary Reid (Clach)

Thistle v County - 1991 Familiar face....

Charles - No date on that Caley-Thistle cutting so no info sorry - before my time though. It is near the end - Allan and Kev and Ian Polworth in the tracksuit top next to them. No idea about the lottery as I was already away and missed the last few years and the great debacle. I think that kit may have been the Umbro one (or maybe Matchwinner). Several years ago I spoke to the guy who now runs the Matchwinner kit and he had no idea that they provided them for the Jags. Another of those company names that was bought out and the history had been lost with the new men coming in. Sound familiar... TBB - it was the Matchwinner kit, launched, I think, in the spring of 1992. I certainly remember Mark Mitchell, one of the Thistle Rebels (Jags weren't too genteel to have them as well!) appearing in the grren away kit when the Wick Academy boys were loading up their lorry with the Thistle enclosure which they'd bought, and wishing them the very best of luck in very emotional terms. And I've remembered the name of the lottery - The Jags Premier Club, which unfortunately found it difficult to get off the ground in competition to Caley's and Clach's well established equivalents. This led, at the merger, for it to be claimed that Caley had 70% of the assets, 80% of the members (after massive recruitment!) and 90% of the fundraising capacity.

Paddy Power got: Chris Sutton 11/10 Craig Levein 7/2 Kenny Shiels 15/2 Where did he come from? ....and Neil Lennon at 500/1

Shiels interview is quite an eye opener. Would have no problem if that duo were given the job to take us to the next level.

Well laid out site and good interview footage. Well done to all involved.

Don't you mean the Championship Trophy (again) ;-)

Thistle 3 Clach 0 Accompanying text to photo.... 'It looks like a goal all the way as a shot from Watson of Clach beats Thistle 'keeper Urquhart. But a last minute kick by left back McLellan clears the danger.'

The other web-site was put together by my wife quite a few years ago as part of a course assignment. She was looking for a topic so I suggested the Jaggies. There was a problem with the content and then the host so it has not gone back on line yet. In reality it needed a bit of a revamp anyway and is on the list of things to do.

Stirling @ 1.61 - ta

Fabulous winger. Would have learned a lot from Brian Clough and Martin O'Neill too Only heard he had had a heart attack recently when O'Neill was up for the Ireland job. Great player indeed - Cloughie got inside his head and the defenders he would face. The other one wasn't a bad player either.

Would have said yes to Burley a few years ago - seems a decent bloke and was a good manager until the Hearts affair seemed to derail him. Having said that this may just be the type of opportunity he needs to get back on track. Would keep the Ipswich connection going if nothing else ;-)
