Partick Thistle vs Aberdeen

First time doon to Firhill. Where is the best drinking establishment to go beforehand?? And can you get decent food there or is it best to go somewhere else first??

 

On a footballing note, will be good to have Robson and Hayes back. Any likelyhood on McGinn getting dropped?? Think he has been poor recently, maybe the kick up the arse he needs

I always stay up in the City Centre and then jump into a taxi about 2:45pm - Firhill is reasonably close.

 

If you like overpriced crap Beer, rubbish food and stale atmosphere - there's a new Hard Rock Café by Queen Street Station.

Fair few places on Great Western Road or Byers Road all within walking distance (with a bit of Subway if yer feeling delicate) from Firhill.

 

Coopers

or

'The little urban achievers club' (formerly known as Hubbards or 'the wise monkey', below 'Viper)

 

 

will probably have a few reds in before hand.

I'd like to think its part of a pattern

 

win 4 - lose 1

 

December - Beat Partick, St Johnstone, St Mirren & Caley. Lost to Motherwell

 

December/ January - Beat County, Arabs, Killie & Hibs. Lost to Caley

 

If that pattern continues

 

January/ February = Beat Draw with Motherwell, St Johnstone, Celtic & St Mirren. Lose to Partick

 

 

Sooooo if said pattern continues

 

February-March - Beat/draw with Celtic, Beat St Johnstone, Dumbarton, Caley Thistle, Lose to Killie

Well that was a doing yesterday.

I've had a feeling that that was coming for a while now.

Don't know how, just had a gut feeling about it, and thought it might have happened last weekend.

Strange kind of game. Given a penalty that looked extremely soft, then not given one that looked more like a pen.

Didn't agree with Robson taking it, Rooney is high on confidence, and if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

So into second half and we should have been ahead within first couple of minutes.

Even when we went two down, I though a quick goal and we could still get back into the game.

Rooney duely obliged, but once their third went in, it was game over for us, and we frankly looked liked a team that had never played together before.

Lyle Taylor bullied Anderson and Reynolds and on another day could have had four or five.

Ach well, lets hope it was just a bad day at the office, and lets move on.

Suppose a positive to take is that Rooney has 4 goals in 5 games.  Wasn't expecting that.

Did think Rooney would've taken the pen but can't really begrudge Robson taking it when the last one he took was unstoppable.

Thought the ref bottled it on the second Rooney pen incident, the keeper would have to have been off and who knows how that changes the game. However based on the 2nd half performance (when we should've came out with confidence, more so after the early chance from Shaughnessy) we deserved fuck all. We played some awful football, at times it looked like they thought the ball was a bomb about to go off and either ran away from it or punted it anywhere away from them so it didn't blow up near them... Can't comprehend it. However Rooney is still looking dangerous in front of goal, Motherwell lost too, got a chance to redeem themselves in midweek. Just gotta look to the next game and put that behind us
