rb123! Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 I’m inclined to agree but it’ll require a big effort next month to get the right players in. Think we're capable of 3rd or 4th but as we know you get shafted with the play offs finishing in those positions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

third lanark Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 3 hours ago, UpInTheAyr said: Never thought he was that great in possession tbh, especially last few games. Same with his passing recently. But yeah, the defensive side of his game is good but is the type of thing that largely goes unnoticed. With these forced changes there's an opportunity for Kerr to change things up a bit. First thing I'd be doing is getting some height into the middle of the park. Wouldn't surprise if there's at least one other player signed as well, or about to. Expect McCall won't leak that one till a few days before we're due to play them Regarding your last paragraph m sure it been rumoured for a while by both sets of supporters that Doolan is returning to Firhill? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but that's almost a given from our point of view. I'd be more disappointed if it didn't happen tbh. I've still a sick feeling that he's going to convince someone like Harvie or Forrest to sign. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like Partick are going to be throwing about stupendous amounts of money in January just like Dundee United did with Shankland We can't just offer Forrest and Harvie an 18 month triple your wage contract just to stop McCall taking them. At the end of the day Weir won £170m in the euro millions so he's not short of a bob. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was thinking/dreading more Harvie or Forrest. Doolan seems too obvious at this point, can see him being here for the season now, and do nothing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D'Jaffo Posted December 18, 2019 Author Share Posted December 18, 2019 Aye to have a realistic change of promotion I think you need to finish 2nd. It would also be handy to go into them whilst in form rather than stumble our way into them like last season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpInTheAyr Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 We should consider ourselves lucky if we finish 4th 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t see any of the 2 of them signing for Thistle , I believe they will both be premier players in mid to lower premiership teams , 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hursty Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 How would the compensation laws work for us if Forrest leaves in the summer? Is it still the case that we would be due a fee as long as we had offered him terms, due to him being under 24? No idea if that's still the rule (or if it even was) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1320Lichtie Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 June seems like an eternity away. Maybe even better just trying to get some kind of fee in January and bringing in someone else on loan or whatever Pretty shitty awkward situation 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UpInTheAyr Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 hopefully be able to get another quality loan in, not sure what area Kerr would use to fill that with though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think the playing squad will be any less at end of January than it is now , I think any player who goes will be replaced at the least 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calm down, dear. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Calm down, dear. Docherty being on a lot less than most of your current squad says a lot more about the amount you’re currently paying out for utter shite tbh. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
