There’ll be dancing in the flooded streets of Alloa tonight. Maybe even some pumping.

Thistle Vs Alloa Battle of the bottom two
martynwasp replied to R&Y99's topic in Scottish Championship General Chatter
Thistle are minging, had the ball for 80% of the game and hardly made a chance. Decent point for us but an instantly forgettable game and a miserable night -

Was he standing on top of a passing train at the time? -

Have any of the trialists from the two games looked promising? -

He scored a wonderful overhead kick away at Albion Rovers [emoji3] -
Pretty much

Agree with all of this. Cawley in for Shields as well for me. I went along to watch Ayr v Partick last night knowing full well that i might be leaving disappointed. Much like Saturday, Partick were first to every ball and didn’t allow Ayr to create any real chances, I can’t see Ayr getting anything from them at the weekend and a win will see Partick clear of the scrap. I was disappointed on Saturday by how much we let Partick play, we’ve had a lot of joy this season playing football against teams and taking the game to them, to retreat onto the edge of our own box as soon as we conceded possession was difficult to watch and Partick’s goals felt inevitable (very much reminiscent of the cup game at St Mirren). Having said this, it was totally understandable that this would happen once we had a lead to protect, as once Partick went ahead the roles were very much reversed. I hope we go out to play on the front foot on Saturday, as opposed to relying on containment and counter attacks. This team have been a joy to watch and have shown unbelievable resilience throughout the season, i’ve no doubt that the players will understand the magnitude of these last two games and rise to the occasion.

I’d agree with all of those. I also loved Trouten’s goal against St Mirren, great play down the left and then he passed it home without even breaking stride -

Admittedly I missed the game so can’t comment on yesterday - but I just can’t ever understand starting Shields and leaving Cawley on the bench -

Hearts fly out to Spain tomorrow for some training I think, I guess whether he goes or not will give us a better idea -

2-0 flattered Morton today but the early goal made it pretty comfortable for them. I thought we battered them for most of the second half however lacked many clear cut chances, apart from the one that Trouten blazed over the bar. We should have had a penalty in the buildup though IMO when Spence was bundled over. Brown and Dick look to be struggling at this level, Dick tries really hard although just looks a few yards off the pace and was poor for both of the goals today. Brown is frustrating to watch as he must have some ability, however we are obviously yet to see it. Although maybe cynical ^^ we have all watched football for long enough to know who isn’t going to cut it. Still relatively hopeful for the season, one or two signings and we’ll get rid of the passengers in the team, we have enough players who are comfortably championship standard. -
