Me and few boys did this 2 years ago for the Burnley friendly.... Blackpool is a hell hole but we made the best of it, hopefully you manage to do the same. Wildcats is worth a look if it's still open Too much on at the moment so wont be going down

definitely a moan If Esson got injured in pre-season would you be happy starting the season with a 19 year old with no first team appearances? Says it all really. Strong statement from Tel and suggests that Tuffey knows he is No.12 (for the moment anyway) and now Esson has the reassurance that he's numero uno. Tuffey had 2 terrific games against us, from the 2 I saw at Fir Hill, but from what my mates tell me (and from what I've read so far on Pie & Bovril) he is far from the finished article but no doubting he will be a terrific back up to Esson. His wages can't have been great from Plastic Thistle and there is no mention that a fee has been paid so far... I don't think Butcher could have found anyone better to warm a bench

Last year there was a competition on this site to design the strip although I don't think any of them were picked It was probably Mike Smith (General Manager???) last year and now his replacement, Darren erm... something? What about FUBU or Wu wear? Don't pretend you wouldn't be happy with a FILA strip... that's all you used to wear back in high school!

:angry: :lol: that is fecking terrible... especially compared to their strip last season, which made me jealous tempting fate because ours isn't out yet but :lol:

I'm still waiting on confirmation that Tokely's signed a contract :angry:

:angry: Good signing but he isn't the finished article and I think Esson will still be out number 1. I know a few Partick Thistle fans and they say Tuffey is a terrific shot stopper but he is known for having his 'off' games... apparently he had one of his best games of their season against us (and he was outstanding) but I don't think it's fair that we expect that sort of performance from him immediately. At 24 he has the best years ahead of him as a keeper and with Esson pushing on a bit we'll probably see more of him in the next few years

meh

Thanks. Do you have a date yet for when the new strips will be instore?

Yeh I enjoyed the tournament but felt too many teams failed to deliver...... France, Italy, England... even Brazil and Argies when it mattered. Almost every team apart from Chile played 4-5-1 and it meant there was a lot of stale mates and very tactical games which have their own appeal but you ultamiltely want to see plenty of goals in a major tournament and there wasn't Basically because the smaller teams weren't as niave as they normally are it made for a very cagey competition

I completely agree, would love to see a player in the team who has a dangerous set-piece, adds more scoring potential It all seems to have gone quiet with him, last i heard Dundee were buying him, any word on whats going on with him? na not heard anything... I doubt he'll be coming here though if Butcher isn't wanting to spend cash... also he seems to prefer players from down south

We have been lacking a decent set-piece taker for sometime.. Hayes takes corners at the moment only because he's too small to win a header but some of his corners have been absolutely mince. That was really why I was shouting my mouth off that Butcher should sign Bob Harris.. as well as filling a position he is more than capable of scraping us the odd point or 3 from dead ball situations. I hope that one of our new signings is capable of scoring a freekick or 2 because it could be the difference between keeping us in the league.

Owen Hargreaves has better luck with injuries from the sounds of it... but Marvin Andrews managed to play with 1 knee in the SPL with the faith of god alone so you never know.

Courier clicky Guy's got his critics but you can't question his commitment to the club and the fans. He is far too eager to lump the ball up the pitch sometimes and maybe not the Roy Keane-esc captain that some fans crave for but Roy Keane is a pr!ck and defenders are there to defend. As long as you stick a ball winning defender in beside Munro he always delivers i.e. Dods, Pavels ...... and now Tokely. In fact the only time he's been ropey is when he's had McGuire & Bulvitis as a partner or when Zadi was on the left of him. He is definitely an unsung hero in the team and deserves a lot more respect than he gets from some posters

Course it is... it gives you a sense of the position on the field you are playing.. and I am a better player wearing No. 8... FACT!

bet you have a very well organised dvd collection

Don't think he could be anymore transparant... fair play for keeping the fans in ze loop. I'm a bit worried that he isn't looking at anyone with a bit more experience to help out the first team but experience costs money and we don't seem to have that at the moment. From the sounds of it Heston Blumenthal will be able to cover all 4 positions upfront and at only 20 years of age he could be an absolute steal... or another Behrami but I am hopeful because he wears a head band :) :P :P

No chance of him coming (P & J yesterday). yeh was reading that today... shame, the 2 of them vying for a place would have been excellent for now and the future. saying that, it's best we spend the majority of our wage bill on players that will impact the first team

Tevez is not an all time great but in comparison to what's around at the moment he'd be in my top 5 forwards Hart Johnson Terry Upson* Cole Barry Milner Lampard Gerrard J.Cole Rooney *because no one better was available That team beats Germany... but they didn't, they lost, I laughed :(

Tevez is a tremendous player and although it's still a toss up between who's the better, him or Rooney, I think on the back of the world cup that question will be answered. His desire to win every game was shown when after scoring 2 goals last night he was raging with Maradona for substituting him. You have to laugh at the reaction from the Saxons, goal line technology, grass roots football, players not good enough... for me it is Capello's fault and him alone, his formation failed, his selections failed and his man management failed. These players were good enough, Gerrard is IMO is the best running midfielder in the world, Lampard has the best scoring ratio for any midfielder apart from Messi & Ronaldo (who could really be considered as forwards), 2 excellent attacking fullbacks and of course Rooney. If these players were played in a formation to suit they were more than capable of getting a result.

:D

Still nothing on the official site and I'm not willing to celebrate until then... w t f???

just? they just had to beat USA & Algeria!! great players, 5hit team

bring on the trumpets!

Well sounds definite now but still nothing on the offical site Delighted to have Tokely on board.

Nothing official yet??? When is he expected to sign?
