The Partick Thistle thread

Might just leave it too, they could've made it a bit easier, I had thought they might email, but the last email I had was the receipt for the Falkirk game, think I'll just have a couple of hours on the Xbox instead. [emoji16] -

Anyone know how to get the discount for the Morton stream? -

You are not the first to state that you trust the current board to make the right decision, but It seems pretty unanimous on here that Lowe and the rest of the last board were not the right people, but did Beattie not choose to hand the reins to them? -

The SFA and SPFL might be forced into acting now that UEFA have punished rangers, and it may be anti sectarian, but do we really need to sing f*** the Pope and f*** the Queen loudly and proudly? Most nuetrals I know think it makes us no better than old firm fans, even if you explain the sentiment. -

No it's not really, his wife ditched him last year and took half the money, so he only had about 70 million -

As far as I know, Colin Weir never put any money into the club for use in the first team, only paid off the debt, set up the youth setup and was helping pay for a new training complex, so his refusal to give any more money to the club should have zero effect on the first team going forward. -

My worry is that their concern over the club's direction was that some shareholders didn't like the cautious approach to the takeover, and haven't thought about the long term risks if things don't work out for the new owners, and some shareholders just saw the opportunity to make some money, I suppose we just have to sit back and let it all pan out and see. -

Most folk seem excited by the current goings on, and nobody seems to think it's negative, just don't feel positive myself and was genuinely wondering where the positivity was coming from, and thought I must be missing something. -

I must be missing something, as I can't see where all the excitement is coming from, I see no evidence of chien and co being successful at other clubs, and did we not get rid of directors who do not stand to benefit personally for ones who will make substantial amounts of money if they sell the club down the river, as I said I may be missing something, but I am a bit concerned about what is unfolding, and don't understand where all the positive vibes are coming from. -

Didn't realise we had sacked Doolan, I thought we just never offered him a new contract? -

Loyalty to employees had a big part in getting us into this position, and perhaps Chris Erskine is more suited to playing a bit part at a club who are not under pressure, and maybe we need a different type of player, so although it may have been handled better, it might work out well for both parties. -

Think that is the point, the side looked devoid of direction or passion, the club statement stated that Archibald took some of the blame for that and was getting the chance to correct that, and they also said that the squad had to be rebuilt from scratch which answers your other question, which also means that they will be a vastly different side from the one in the playoffs, hopefully better, but if not, I'm sure the board will make the required changes. -
The Terrible Journalism & Tom English Thread
Mancubus replied to Ludo*1's topic in Scottish Premiership General Chatter
Bad journalism is bad enough, but when a football club attempts to exert control on the media and newspaper management backs down and gives in to their bullying, it really is a sad state of affairs. http://bellacaledonia.org.uk/2016/01/29/scottish-media-failure-exposed/
