Season ticket 2011-12
Just out of interest, why do people think Seniors should automatically get a concession at all? Blatant age discrimination which is not justified by any means testing. When I consider all the people I know, the over 60s/65s are, on the whole, better placed financially than younger adults - mortgage paid off, kids left home etc. Recent changes in legislation also mean that more and more of that age group will continue working past the traditional retirement age. I know this sort of blanket seniors concession is common across all clubs and in other areas of life, but that doesn't necessarily make it right, and I wonder if it is a well intended gesture that is becoming outdated and unsustainable.

Ryan Esson - CTO Player of the Year
Is he the best keeper we have ever had? I would say so.

Ryan Esson - CTO Player of the Year
Completely deserved, he's been phenomenomenomal and is perhaps the only player to have maintained an excellent level of performance throughout the season.

Who's title
Like it! So what does that make Partick Thistle?

Accies Roll Call
Thread on P&B mentions that it is closed. Chambers closed I might be wrong but I think TSNY emailed Hamilton FC about ticket prices, rather than emailing the pub about beer prices

Accies Roll Call
If true, that's a pity. They really looked after us for Brewster's leaving do in January 2009.

Derek McInnes to Brenford?
Wonder if he'll be consulting Terry about the club before accepting any offer? He only lasted 6 months there.

Trialist game - Friday
"Please Mr Butcher, give me another chance to win a contract. You didn't see my best in that trial because I was played out of position by that halfwit of a manager. It was really hard to play as an attacking left midfielder, in the hole, whilst also tracking back to right back. Especially as I'm a ****ing goalkeeper!"

Trialist game - Friday
Who's going to manage the two teams, is it Terry v Mo? I'd like to see Renegade given one of the teams so that we can see those legendary formations in action.

Team selection priority
For me it's all about next season now. Give all the youngsters a game, along with any players the manager is still undecided about. As for the bit about affecting who gets relegated - well, if we end up fielding our weakest team against Hamilton and severely p1ss off St Mirren and their fans, so much the better.

Iron Maiden
We all know about the manager's taste in wine, but what about the real hard stuff? His wikipedia page has a reference to this old article from Classic Rock magazine, in which he names Iron Maiden as his favourite band and discusses his personal acquaintance with the band. Just when I thought I couldn't admire him any more. Terry on Steve Harris Maybe Terry could persuade them to play at the end of season party. And I know I've told this story before, but when Terry was playing for Rangers he was stood right behind me at a Motley Crue gig at the Edinburgh Playhouse. He left early, and I don't blame him.

Trialist game - Friday
Ah, right. Good chance to remind us all that Dundee aren't in the top flight

Team selection priority
We are in the enviable position of having two games left where there is nothing at stake, as our league position and prize money are already determined. What do you think should be Terry's top priority when it comes to team selection?
-
Trialist game - Friday
If anybody catches Terry's attention in this trial, is there anything to stop them being played as a trialist against Hamilton to see how they perform in a more realistic environment?

7th Place- Here we go again
I think the split is a good thing overall. What have we been playing for in the last 6 months? What have we been discussing all the time? Without the split, most of our season would have been a series of meaningless friendlies, with no chance of the title or Europe, and no chance of relegation. How dull would that have been?

Duncan's red card
I wouldn't recommend this, but there's still an option - just field him anyway, and take a penalty for fielding an ineligible player. It's been done before!
-
GRANT MUST STAY !
Delighted to hear he played well again. But can anyone explain why he seldom demonstrated his importance to the team earlier in the season? The obvious explanation is that he is now fighting hard to win a next contract (either here or elsewhere) but does that not sort of suggest that he wasn't giving 100% previously?

Matchnight Thread: ICT -V- Celtic
Did anyone hear Billy Dodds on Radio Scotland this evening? Kept going on and on and on about the pitch being a vital factor, and how he bets that Terry asked for it not to be rolled or watered, as he probably wanted it to be as dry and bumpy as possible. He didn't give the team any of the credit that they so clearly deserve, and even argued that "Inverness didn't play any football last night". What an utter tool.

Russell Duncan & Grant Munro leaving
According to the Daily Record George Adams spoke to Grant on Tuesday night with the view to further talks . Sounds like the prospect of moving to County was the kick up the backside he needed to put in a great performance and fight for his place here.

I love the way the North Stand knew Grant had scored as soon as he struck the ball
