Not just the tie, game summed up our season. Good spells, good work to get on the front foot, capable of defensive calamities... Kane goes off and we have nothing up top...

I`ve been a fan of A. Tod all season, but lately, he`s been a man down, even Morrison outplayed him today. John going up front did more in his cameo up front. We need a new plan for next week


Fraser too has gone off the boil in the play off games.

Hopefully rest this week will help - it`s been a crazy schedule so don`t blame them for fatigue.


COME ON YE PARS!

Interesting that Hammy never got a go in either of the legs. Thought he lifted us majorly in the Semi Final extra time when he came on. We were crying out for some motivation and energy after the first howler and definitely after the second

The team have done amazingly well to have got this far, given we were concerned about relegation not so long ago. Losing the keeper we have relied on so heavily of late really didn`t help but on reflection, no excuses, on the night we didn`t offer enough of a threat up front. Was always going to be a tall order, but they all deserve credit for a battling season! Big game incoming - COYP!

To be fair, PT were better on the night. I thought we looked tired and PT were much sharper in the 2nd half We could have done better with our chances, but we never really tested the keeper. Our own worst enemy at times as has been said. We didnt do enough to win the game at the end of the day. Its been a good league campaign and the good thing is no injuries for the cup final. We wont get many chances next week so we have to rise to the challenge and take them. A good season under the belt for the younger players that shoukd stand them in good stead for next season.

It was clearly a pass back - the ref would have given that for sure.

Terrell made the right decision, just executed poorly and Thistle got a huge slice of luck - which given their performance over the season they probably merited.

I think St Mirren will take them though - Smyth is key for Thistle and can`t play.

The lads have done tremendously well this season to get to the point where there wasn`t much between the two sides. Terrell is a young keeper, I really feel for him tonight, but we would have won that with The Ox or Mehmet in goals.

Michael Stewart made a really good point there, that this might help us, regarding The Cup Final, which we can now concentrate on rather than spread ourselves too thinly and end up with nothing from either game

Knew it would be tough tonight, was hopeful rather than confident.

We haven’t been consistent all season Partick pretty much have. We came together properly after that Hibs game - I think that really gave all our players confidence in themselves. Since then we have been far more consistent.

Not going to blame Terrell either, he kept his head to not pick it up, he just panicked a bit and never lifted the ball up with the kick.

The sheer amount of games as well in this last couple of months is mental. In fairness it was a massive ask and the boys done well.

Onwards to Hampden and whatever that brings ! Either way I am proud of our team. At one point sitting near the bottom to where we have ended up. Semi final of play off and a Scottish cup final.

COYP


A pass back is when it`s deliberately kicked to the GK by a teammate. There was no way that was a deliberate pass and he could have picked it up.


Can`t legislate for the referees though!

Folk have short memories. It was Tod who set up the only goal in the play-offs against Arbroath.

Billy Terrell has a weakness in deciding when to leave his line and how far to go. I remember daft goals lost at Arbroath and against QOS in the Cup.

A learning curve for next season as you have set the bar ! Hopefully some experienced players for next season so we can have a go at winning the league, nothing to fear from Celtic lol , all I ask is do your best and you never know what can happen, certainly surpassed my expectations this season so once again thanks for giving us something to enjoy and shout about again

I don`t rate Terrell at all. Aside from the goals he`s cost us over the season he`s had loads of mistakes that we got away with.
Even tonight he had a ridiculous fresh air swipe outside his box and two shanked clearances before the goals.
22 isn`t even that young, the Partick keeper tonight was 21, and he`s a better keeper in every aspect. The St Johnstone keeper this season was younger than Terrell.
Honestly I`d have Mehmet on the bench for the final.

Once Kane went off, we lost any real threat of getting back into the game. Most of these players have featured in the majority of the 50 games this season. It`s not an excuse, but it’s definitely a factor.

Fraser wasn’t at his best again tonight, which really limited us creatively. Cooper also has to offer more when he comes on more often not just jogs around without impacting the game.

This is Andy Tod`s world and we are lucky to live in it.

A successful league season for me, especially given how badly we’ve struggled recently.
There’s still a lot of improvement needed within the squad, both in terms of quality and balance, but hopefully we can have a big summer. With this year’s promise behind us, recruitment should be easier and, hopefully, more successful.

There is a reason why no team has achieved promotion from 3rd or 4th place in the championship and that is the number of games they have to play in a very short time. Maybe thats seen fair as they should have the hardest task due to their league position but in my opinion these playoffs should be played as one of ties played in a neutral grounds and the final one at hamden. But of course the SFA wouldnt make so much money out of it. I just hope the pars players can get their batteries recharged before next weeks final as quite a few of the players are looking a bit mentally as well as physically tired. Regardless whatever happens next week, thanks for a great entertaining season PARS, so well done all at the club.

Agree with last two posts. The manager will know what he needs for next season and I’m sure he will be backed, especially with the cash generated from the cup run.

a disappointing night but have seen that movie so many times before especially against Partick and through there, if the aim next season is to win or challenge for the league, the squad will need massive changes including some of the under contract players in forward areas.

In addition because of the postponements due to international call ups and the cup run, we`ve had 2 games a week in 5 out of the last 6 weeks. Tough for any team.

Thistle having the week off while we played Arbroath helped in the end but I`m proud of them for going oh so close despite any tiredness.

Honestly I don’t know what is more laughable the wild conspiracy theories on Facebook about Motherwell somehow doing this deliberately to stop us winning the cup because it would do them out of a European place

Or the melt down by some because it’s somehow cost us the game nah I’m sorry but it was our performance and two complete howlers from Terrell which btw is the reason Ox was brought in on loan in the first place once again our inability to properly address the goalkeeper situation has bit us in the arse again

Blame Motherwell all you want but they were within their rights to recall him for tomorrow as per the terms of his loan deal
