It would be some story if Queens Park came up but personally I’d prefer to see Ayr or Morton come up. Invoking memories of Archie MacPherson/Arthur Montford commentary and grainy footage of the likes of Andy Ritchie putting Aberdeen to the sword or the late Johnny Doyle scoring at Somerset. Ayrshire/Renfrewshire derbies in the top flight would be a great addition. Anyway, anybody watching at this level regularly got a handle on who might come out on top? Take a look at the Scottish Premiership without the big two, it's very similar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that SPFL is a hopeless league now. I don't think any of us have the right answer just now. Unless the OF leave it will remain the same in the forseeable.

The ref should have used common sense and stuck with his original opinion. Maybe a yellow but even would have been harsh. The opposite happened in Perth, ref took about five minutes to overturn a red card decision. If it's taking that long it's not a clear and obvious error.

dandydunn Posted October 30, 2022 Author Share Posted October 30, 2022 The people that had that flag are scum and not welcome at any game, probably the same young lads that smashed up the toilets yesterday, but I’m led to believe that was sorted out in house 👀 and they’ll most likely think twice about doing it again.

It could be any team from about five or six. Unlike previous seasons there is no obvious favourite for the title. A couple of weeks ago Thistle were four points clear at the top with a healthy goal difference but our form has just fallen off a cliff lately. Ayr, Morton, ICT, Thistle and Queens Park have all been tanking each other in recent weeks. I have a hunch ICT might take the title but please, don't put any money that! 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ErsatzThistle Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 Anyone see Leigh Griffiths feeling sorry for himself the other day on the BBC ? "Managers just urnae picking up the phone fir me." - Aye, but have you ever wondered just why that might be Leigh ? The lad never was the brightest. Can't blame managers for finally giving up on him, he brings far too much baggage along with him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Until you know the negative effects and depression that mental illness brings, keep your comments to yourself. Do you have a degree in medicine by chance? Yes, I understand why nanagers may be hesitant, but to say he is not the brightest is just down right cruel. The man clearly needs help, and I for one pray he gets it....

Ahem, Griffiths has been involved in unfortunate legal entanglements and morally questionable situations in recent years and still seems to be hanging around with his jakey mates. I suggest that's why managers aren't "picking up the phone" for him. They don't want to be dealing with that nonsense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems strange that Aberdeen and Cove are both at home on a Friday night, I’d imagine that and the TV will kill cove a bit tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
