Partick thistle !

Drew · Feb 18, 2006

I was brought up in the West End of Glasgow in the 70's and 80's when everyone around me followed Celtic or Rangers.

Never used to pay to get in until I was a teenager. All you did was askto be lifted over the gate by anyone and thats how you got in. Still never paid to get in when I got older as you could get over a wall at the back. The broken glass embedded in concrete was no obstacle !

Best momment being a Partick fan........being there the last 2 occaisions when we won promotion to the SPL.

Worst moment. Being cheated out of our place in the SPL when a late penalty gave Dundde Utd a playoff win. We went down. They came up. Still remember all these people 'crying' behind us.

Being a Partick Fan means you never win anything...you just go to see the boys score the odd goal !

Celtic fan - had a bit of a mixed season. Humilation to Art Brat away

, nearly hauling it around on the return leg, losing a 3-1 lead to Motherwell to only scrape a draw 4-4 on the opening game of the season to where we are now - 13 points ahead of Hearts and 21 ahead of TFOD. Humiliation in the Scottish cup to Clyde kinda indicated what a strange season it's been. I suppose a transition year was always going to be difficult although I was hoping for a wee bit of a smoother transition to be honest. Although, after the last day of last season, I don't particulary care about how we win the league as long as we win it.

Best moment in league football....Partick beating Celtic and Parkhead 2-1 and having to stay in the stadium and then run like mad hiding our scarves round our waists until we got back to the car. We dont beat Celtic that often so it sticks in the mind !!!

What was that, early 90's? 91 or 92? I' can't really remember it (i think I was 10 and not really that interested in football at the time), but you lot wouldn't have been the only one beating the crap out of us round about that time.

Blackburn Rovers.

What's all this supporting two teams rubbish? Man Utd and Stevenage? Wycombe and Chelsea?

Give a thought for Partick Thistle Saturday....QF of the Scottish FA cup against the mighty Hearts with all their millions !!!!!

Would be great for a Partick 1-0 but cant see it !!!!

This is my story, this is my song.

Follow the Hearts and you can't go wrong.

Though some say the Cellic and Ranges are grand, the boys in maroon are the best in the land.

H E A ... R T S

Hearts, Hearts, Glorious Hearts.

It's down at Tynecastle they bide.

Oh Dear we have a closet Jambo !!!!!!!!

Niall · Pro player

I am certainly not a closet Jambo. I am wearing my Hearts top right now.

Partick Thistle deserve a lot of credit for knocking out ICT. I was not looking forward to facing them again but the year ends in a 6 so Hearts must play in a cup final. It's fate.

Hopefully.
