    Samuels’ right leg was heavily strapped when he came out at full time to join the applause. With Henderson suspended, we could do with him for Saturday. 

    Didn't think he was up to full speed tonight, a couple of runs he made he was never getting close to catching the ball. Almost like he is still protecting an injury.

    Yeah I think you’re correct. No wonder we are getting involved, a scramble to get our trademark back id imagine.

    Not sure what stage of the process it's at, but you can renew the mark up to 6 months after its due,  then there is another 6 months to restore it by letter of explanation...so we have until July to complete. 

    Panic? What panic.

    I can understand why they would want to use "Caledonian" but there is no good reason for tagging on "Thistle".  I doubt that will go down to well with Partick either.  Surely one Thistle in Glasgow is quite enough.  If they want to to focus on the Railway  theme, why not Caledonian Locos or Caledonian Sleepers.  There's only one Caley Thistle.

    On one of their tweets they actually thank the partick thistle charitable trust for their support. Same colours, thistle on the badge.

  4. For sure we have to be prepared for Falkirk like they were the favourites,  as the only team that has beaten us in the cup wasn't a team from the division above.

    Pity we didn't raise our game for that one 🙄 not that it matters now of course. 🤭

    Until then the league is the priority and performance and results are a must.

    I wonder what the club's biggest shareholders - which according to the recent Confirmation Statement still include Graham Rae and the Muirfield Mills bunch, former chairmen Dougie McGilvray, George Fraser and David Sutherland, and Alan Savage's Orion Group - think of all this?

    Probably struggle to get this lot in the same room at the same time...clash of egos, big time.

    That was one sided a contest as I've seen for a while. Queens Park were streets ahead of us for large parts of that match.

    Decent opening to the game with Eze missing two glorious chances when he had free headers from corners but he would eventually get his goal later. It was surprising that we didn't really seem to know how to counter him and were content to keep letting him win header after header almost scoring each time. 

    Danny MacKay had a great chance to open the scoring after a nice phase of passing play saw him scamper in behind the Queens back line but he lost his footing and shot right at Ferrie. But he was to open the scoring when a long ball forward bounced off the back of Mckay and Mackay raced onto it to place a wonderful low shot beyond Ferrie at full stretch to give us the lead. Queens seemed to lose their way after this for the rest of the first half but regained their composure in the second and utterly dominated the rest of the match.

    The equaliser arrived when a cross from the ICT right found Savoury in acres of space with no ICT defender near him and he placed his wider beyond Ridgers to bring QP level. Despite this being the umpteenth warning to us to try and defend crosses into the box we decided to, erm, not do this and instead let Eze have another header from a cross almost unchallenged and he found the net this time to put the home side ahead. 

    Mckay and Devine had decent chances for us to head in equalisers and Samuels fired a late effort right at Ferrie but Queens were easily deserving of the win especially as we ran out of ideas and blootered long balls to Mckay to try and win against tow defenders with an average height of about 8 ft.

    Bizarre decision to sub Allardice when he was probably our best midfielder and Samuels continues to be quite unimpressive in his outings. MacGregor got a few minutes before appearing to catch his studs in the pitch and had to be taken off inured so that's swell. We just didn't seem able to cope with the intensity and pace of Queens Park who moved the ball so quickly whilst we were relatively slow and ponderous when we had it. The gulf between the sides was there for all to see.

    Even if Queens don't win the league I'd imagine they will fancy their chances to go all the way in the playoffs and it's hard to argue they don't deserve it.

    Apart from a few corner scares I thought we were very comfortable in the first half, possession even, but we were having more joy in their half than they were in ours.

    I don't know what Coyle said at the break but they were pressing us for every ball from the restart. It soon became a backs to the wall display with no obvious attempt to counter this.

    Disappointing to let our grip go but it is a common occurrence with not only the coaching staff, but some of the players as well.

    Noticeable that the tactic of crosses into the 6ft 6 no 66 was in tandem with their wee sh1teb@g forward constantly blocking Ridgers movement on the goal line despite Carsons efforts to thwart him.

    Dodds tenure nearly at its end.
