R&Y99 Posted March 26, 2022 Share Posted March 26, 2022 Five games to go and miraculously, despite our recent form, we are still in the top four. It has been discussed every time we play Arbroath how poor our record is against them, since they have been in the championship we have drawn twice and lost on four occasions. I would say surely it’s time to beat them, but we are on a four game losing streak so am I at all confident? No. Despite all this I am going to ask kindly, Thistle please just win a game of football. Thank you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oneteaminglasgow Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 A draw here would almost certainly keep us in the top four by the time the Queen of the South game comes round (barring Raith sticking seven past Dunfermline) and would stop our run of losses so I’d be quite happy with that. That said, in the previous three games this year against Arbroath we’ve looked good for the first half hour of one, and the second half of another and that’s it so I’m not massively confident. Didn’t see yesterday’s game, but looking at our bench we can only pray that some of the guys are back. Six men of the bench when four of them have a single appearance between them doesn’t give you much hope. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arbroath are definitely physically stronger than us and will probably adapt better than us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tattie36 Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 I'm not a fan of the route one fitba we've been playing of late but this is definitely the approach we need to take on that pitch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkfish85 Posted March 27, 2022 Share Posted March 27, 2022 Arbroath drop points and the race could be over. If Killie drop and Arbroath win it’s back on. Tough game to call and could hinge on what players Partick have fit. Is Brian Graham back for this one and Amy other of the missing players ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lichtie23 Posted March 28, 2022 Share Posted March 28, 2022 Looking forward to a decent away day. A few buses running from Arbroath so should create a decent atmosphere. Biggest worry is the playing surface 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killiefaetheferry Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 Thistle May underestimate the fitness and ability of Arbroath by falling for the 'part time' myth emanating from the hybrid club. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JagsCG Posted March 29, 2022 Share Posted March 29, 2022 Arbroath will win this. I’ve not been at all confident vs Arbroath at any time this season, but certainly not given our current form. McCall said we should have quite a few players back fit, which is naturally a bonus in general. Presume Mayo will be available for this after Int. Duty? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're about to play a team that's lost 4 in a row, conceding 12 goals in the process and we've not won against Arbroath since we came down and beyond. What were you expecting, an abundance of confidence? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
