Gallus Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 First post for me on here, secured a bosman transfer...... What a performance at Firhill. Scott Wright has to start ahead of McGinn for me on Saturday.... Don't care about what McGinn has done in the past, it's about the here and now and form players must play. That lad was up against two hardened SPFL players today and absolutely rinsed them, with three goals to boot. Wright could surprise the Celtic back line and tease a red or a penalty, worth the gamble for me. Youth players don't have fear..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigAl Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Firstly welcome on board Gallus. Free speech rules the roost o'er here so knock yourself oot loon. Secondly hear what you're saying regarding Wright for the cup final and there is definitely an argument that given the perceived lack of effort by McGinn against the Howkers, that Ncinnes should do this, however I reckon McInnes will revert to type and McGinn will start.

mondo Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Spose it depends which way you think the game will go. I would like to give septic something to think about when they see our starting line up. I also think Wright wont let the occasion get to him if he does start. Even then if things aren't going our way we have McGinn to come on and do his thing. I would rather it was that way round than taking McGinn off and relying on Wright to change the game. What ever happens he needs to get a decent amount of game time. Imagine what it could do to your confidence if you played like today only to be handed a consolation 5 minutes at the end of Saturdays match.

KennyFuckinPowers Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 A remarkable way to end a season. 6 goals and a clean sheet away from home, could not ask for more really, a teenager getting a hat-trick also, fantastic all round. Obviously a different game next week against a completely different opposition, but we've beaten our points records, won at Ibrox for the first time since 1991 and just beat a top six team 6-0 on the fnal day of the season, the last few weeks have been positive, other than certain player's futures, we should feel confident going into this final, they are not unbeatable and we should have our tails up.

OxfordDon Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Well, i'm in a huff because they didnae score a single goal after i started watching the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gallus Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Only other thing I would add is that the way we have rounded off this season will keep things in perspective should next Saturday not go our way. Our club is in great shape with a great manager. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elgindon Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Welcome aboard min,did you get tired of Masons waffle? Great to see Wright getting on and doing well.Showing that he and a couple of others may have been worth a start more often in recent years. Like the idea of Wright starting against Celtic for the element of surprise,having McGinn to come on if ness. Looking forward cautiously to the final.

BobbyBiscuit Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 First post for me on here, secured a bosman transfer...... What a performance at Firhill. Scott Wright has to start ahead of McGinn for me on Saturday.... Behave. Thistle had a multitude of injuries, on the back of a 5-0 doing at home on Thursday night. That's not to take away from Scott Wright's efforts but let's get it in perspective. Our goals were great today, loved Christie's second and Hayes's goal was a great team goal. Was a worrying bit in the first half where Jonny seemed to be struggling and i was urging DM to take him off but he came through it. Was a training exercise really, Thistle had so little to offer unfortunately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OxfordDon Posted May 21, 2017 Share Posted May 21, 2017 Highlights are up on the BBC, some good quality goals in there. Here's hoping that's Wright making the step up, and also that Christie is a genuine target for us in the summer, both looked excellent.

manc_don Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Wowzers, some of those finishes, especially Christies second. W really need to try and sign him. He'd worth the investment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nips_and_Tatties Posted May 22, 2017 Author Share Posted May 22, 2017 song for Wright. New kids on the block --- Oh oh oh oh ohhhh oh oh oh oh Oh oh oh oh ohhhh The Wright stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KennyFuckinPowers Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Mackay-Steven and Hayes both play wide left, it's their prominent positions, I am 100% certain that GMS won't be coming here. We do need to replace McGinn though, and whilst Wright has potential, he's not quite ready to cement a starting place week-in week-out if we are to consolidate our position as best of the rest should the tims have another season like this one. He definitely deserves the opportunity pre-season though and should absolutely be in our match day squad every week, not bad cover for our wingers.

Nips_and_Tatties Posted May 22, 2017 Author Share Posted May 22, 2017 I think even though against Patrick ...he deserves a start after that performance. Why not? He was better than anyone else. Something tells me that because he got a full 90 minutes yesterday that DM won't play him from the start against Celtic.. That's how he works Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LA-Don Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 Kenny, McGinn played much of his time wide left and cutting in, Hayes played any of the front 3 positions behind Rooney. Pretty sure Mackey-Steven can play Mcginn's role w Hayes on the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
