63. Author: doctordandruff Date: Sat 19th Apr 2025. 18:26 Just noticed Partick`s last 2 games are against Falkirk and Livingston. Absolutely insane they didn`t play to win. Reply |
64. Author: neilholland999 Date: Sat 19th Apr 2025. 18:28 AveragePar, Sat 19 Apr 18:22 I don`t think people are upset about the result. It`s more about how ineffective we are going forward. Reply |
65. Author: Angus_W Date: Sat 19th Apr 2025. 18:29 Ground it out. Not easy on the eye but that point will keep us up. Special mention for Tobi who decided to play in midfield in the second half. A keystone cop goalmouth stramash, we must have had 3 or 4 opportunity’s to clear the ball and managed to play ourselves deeper into trouble. Lucky lucky Pars! Hopefully NL will stay & build us a team worth watching next season. I’m away for lie down till September after this season. Post Edited (Sat 19 Apr 18:30) Reply |
66. Author: Socks Date: Sat 19th Apr 2025. 18:53 I`m really pleased that we got through the game and won an important point. We had most of the first half play but didn`t really threaten (think I might have said that before...), with Partick having the only two real chances of the half. Decent save from the keeper at the first one. Early second half play was quite even, but as soon as Kane went off the game turned and we struggled to hold onto it at all. It`s not just his goals that make a difference, it`s his ability to get us up the park. That really showed in the second half when he wasn`t there. Not sure what the keeper thought he was doing whne he decided to go tyring to win a header 40 yards from his goal, but aside from that stupid moment he did OK. I also thought Chris Hamilton had a decent game, doing what he does well in covering ground, putting his body in where it`s needed and winning some free kicks to take the pressure off in the second half. The pitch is absolutely shocking. It looks a bit better with more grass on it but the bounce is as bad as I`ve ever seen and was like a game at Central Park. They really had to stand up as a team in the last 20 mins and I`m pleased they got throguh it to get a good point. WEll done to them all for getting through that. Reply |
67. Author: pacifist Date: Sat 19th Apr 2025. 18:53 Job pretty much done I think. We were tough but deteriorated with the changes in the 2nd half . There was no lack of heart but just quality here and there. Fans were good, no boos, and excellent reception at the end. Tobi showed superb confidence in the defence when he strolled back to the goals during the stramash. Probably thinking there are 3 of them there - I might have a go at keepie uppie as well. Reply |
68. Author: kozmasrightfoot Date: Sat 19th Apr 2025. 19:28 Just remembered the pitch. It won`t be easy to play any kind of decent football on it. On the plus side, it makes it difficult for other teams to score too so Airdrie next week might win,but it won`t be by much, thereby eliminating any chance of turning around that goal difference. It`ll be different next year when it`s either repaired or replaced and the squad is drastically different. Let`s just write this season off, be thankful we haven`t went down (I know, I know, appeals and whatnot) and look forward to next year. We`ve got an ambitious owner that hopefully doesn`t go overboard with the spending (remember the 2 Jimmies era) but gets Lennon signed up and money is spent wisely on fixing the squad. It could take 2 or 3 transfer windows to get the team Lennon wants (if he stays), so some patience will be required. Pars fan. Magpies fan. Mens tennis fan. Alternative rock fan. Not a fan of much else. Reply |
69. Author: Rigger Al Date: Sat 19th Apr 2025. 19:49 Sad to see our playing surface like this ,We commnonly had a great surface ,have we changed groundsman, Reply |
70. Author: wee eck Date: Sat 19th Apr 2025. 19:57 Wasn`t it having the USH on for a week prior to the home match against Ayr in January - a match which was subsequently postponed from the Saturday to the Tuesday - that ruined the pitch? It hasn`t recovered since that happened. Reply |
71. Author: neils Date: Sat 19th Apr 2025. 20:00 Don`t think it`s got much to do with the groundsman. It was the under soil heating that did it, subsequently the pitch got chewed up, and couldn`t recover. Last season sprung a leak as well, this season it baked the soil! The pitch its been acknowledged needs investment, like the team! I`m glad we pulled through, the pitch had a lot to do with our performance, but credit to the players, they took flack, but they are honest pros. Glad it`s done, I really hope Lennon stays, always liked him, I think he`s made for us! And yes, there will be a much needed clearout. Reply |
72. Author: kelty_par Date: Sat 19th Apr 2025. 20:00 Lennon has suggested in his post match interview that he`s hopeful of getting a new pitch for next season. Reply |
73. Author: cfad Date: Sat 19th Apr 2025. 20:06 kelty_par, Sat 19 Apr 20:00 His post match interview seemed to give clues to him being here on a longer contract, good stuff Reply |
74. Author: Rigger Al Date: Sat 19th Apr 2025. 20:14 neils, Sat 19 Apr 20:00 My bad ,not keeping up,I thought the USH Was at a specific area not the whole surface Reply |
75. Author: Boomer Date: Sat 19th Apr 2025. 20:24 The pitch is getting replaced immediately after last home game. Pre season friendlies playing away as it will take close to 3 months as I have been informed. Reply |
76. Author: Rigger Al Date: Sat 19th Apr 2025. 20:26 Reading Lennons report it seems positive hes going to stay,the playing surface,players ,happy days Reply |
