Ad Lib Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 I'm cautiously optimistic about this coming season now that our squad is shaping up a bit. Lots of unknowns still but there isn't a feeling of chaos or dread. I'll give it until November! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JagsCG Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 With the signing of Charlie Reilly confirmed, we can probably assume that's all our recruitment just about done. On paper, a very decent window, we'll just need to see how they actually fair in the competitive matches now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree, I like Brownlie though, plus McKenna’s looked decent in pre-season. I’d be starting with them against St Mirren next week, and leaving Tam on the bench, as he stills gives me the fear. If we’re going to concede a few this season but score a lot more, it’s acceptable but need to cut out a lot of basic errors that we had last season. Not entirely convinced Sneddon is as good as people made him out to be last season either, you’re always a better player when you aren’t playing (Tam is a good example of that as well) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Depending on the form of Williamson (although worth remembering he’s far from decent defensively) I’d be tempted to try Richard Foster at LB. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was on loan at us last season and was your typical nondescript loanee/youth player. Was never offensively bad; he just never contributed anything and the games seemed to largely pass him by. My abiding memory of him (bar a horrific injury he got at Raith) was being 2-0 down at home to Stranraer with our midfield, featuring, Reilly being useless. He was hooked at half-time and our midfield subs changed the game clawing it back to 2-2 and he barely featured after that. Don't want to be too harsh on him as he was only 17/18, and it was his first taste of first-team football, but that excuse only goes so far. He especially paled in comparison to his contemporary Leon McCann who went on to be a stand-out and who'll definitely go onto bigger and better things soon. Not convinced Reilly will make an impact at Thistle but we'll see how it goes. Edited October 1, 2020 by airdrieman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaggyness Posted October 1, 2020 Share Posted October 1, 2020 Is there a rule on how many loan players we are allowed or have we sunk far enough down the leagues for that to no longer be an issue? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although he's only signed a one-year deal, it seems to me that he's more one for the future, so probably backs up what you're saying about his time at Airdrie, perhaps just needs a fair bit of development. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he’s only 18, but I expect him to get a decent amount of game time to show what he can do and so he can try and earn another deal. Hopefully he has learnt from his experience at Airdrie and improves with us. Gives us more squad depth which I’m not complaining about.

cilitbang Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 (edited) Thistle v Hearts stream is on just now via ptfc.co.uk. I'd suggest having music or a podcast on in the background since the commentary team are beige as f**k.

The rest of the bench seems to be guys from the youth academy, so I’m assuming he’s the same. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benidorm Posted October 2, 2020 Share Posted October 2, 2020 Speaking to a couple of people who tell me they plan to go up the canal for the first home game and that quite a few others are. Based on the fact that there seemed to be people up there at some of the recent friendlies I could definitely believe that there is going to be a "turnout". Teletext instead for this bear tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
