ESPN.com - SOCCER - Partick Thistle misses three straight game-clinching spot kicks Partick was dangerous on the break with Douglas making a sharp save from Gerry Britton in the first-half and the club silenced the home crowd by equalizing on 50 minutes. Partick will rue the missed chance to have beaten the team who won the Cup in 2000 and 2001, but five missed efforts from nine attempts ultimately proved the club's undoing. Partick could have won it five minutes from the end of normal time but Lilley headed Burns' corner just past the post. espn.go.com /soccer/news/2002/1106/1457050.html   (488 words)

PTFC.NET - History Partick Thistle cast envious eyes, we were playing classier teams than Partick F.C. and furthermore, we were signing up all the cream of the local talent.

Partick Thistle Early Years - a History - 1884-85 Takeover Partick Thistle had not been aware of this fact - the SFA secretary had been aware of the non-registration: however, he had not been questioned on that particular topic. Thistle had their 10 shillings bond returned as the committee did not believe that the protest had been of a frivolous nature. Thistle had not been given the chance to match themselves against Rangers for two years - allegations that the Govan side were afraid to play were rife the previous season - but in late April Rangers sent an experimental side to Muir Park. www.ptearlyyears.net /84-85.html   (3013 words)

Partick Thistle Early Years - a History - 1885-86 A Season of Two Halves Rumours were also rife that Partick Thistle had tempted the much-admired McIntyre and Marshall of 3rd Lanark to join the ranks at Inchview.

Partick Thistle Football Club - Uncyclopedia The Partick Thistle Football Club or "The Evil Jags" are by far the most feared soccer team in all of Glasgow, not to mention one of the oldest. The club was formed by ex-soccer hooligans in 1876 as a way of letting the upper classes of Partick kick the lower classes and hit them with a traditional Scottish Thistle without bothering the already stretched police forces of Glasgow. By 1906 the club had moved home to Maryhill (a more "up market" version of Partick) and gave up most of the kicking and thistle beating and started playing soccer (or football as its called here) with some success. uncyclopedia.org /wiki/Partick_Thistle_Football_Club   (192 words)

Hibernian v Partick Thistle Thursday 26th December 2002 Partick, on the other hand, were happy enough with the pattern of play: they succeeded in keeping men behind the ball and Hibs at arm’s length. Thistle didn’t quite see things the same way and felt aggrieved about dropping a couple of points from a contest they were well placed to win. A change was forced on Thistle when Kenny Milne suffered a knee injury and Danny Lennon came off the bench. home.freeuk.net /fatsandbald/MatchReports/s4/MRHibsvPartick2002.htm   (998 words)

Partick Thistle Early Years - a History - 1882-1883 Thistle gave chances to two 2nd XI players, and played the game using just five forwards instead of the usual six, dropping one forward back to half-back to create the classic 2-3-5 formation which lasted for a long time. Partick Thistle were elected to a position on the committee along with ten other Glasgow clubs. Thistle were again behind at half-time, 1-3, with Stirling debuting in goal and Beaton scoring for Thistle. www.ptearlyyears.net /82-83.html   (2091 words)

Morton v Partick Thistle Sat 10th Jan 04 Scottish Cup Round 3 Thistle’s drookit fans at the Wee Dublin End, who had had to weather a monsoon in the first half, found their voices and their team began to exude confidence. On Friday I had written that Thistle were used to competing in a division in which the room for error is marginalised and the quality of the opposition vastly superior. In Rowson and Grady Thistle had star performers, but it was as a team they impressed most, allowing the hosts no time at all on the ball. homepage.ntlworld.com /c.scott2/0304/matchreports/jan04/10partick.html   (1185 words)

Partick Thistle 2 v St Mirren 2 The Partick faithful launched their "Save the Jags" appeal for their financially stricken club, not realising that by 4.45pm the Buddies would've made their contribution to the cause. From a free kick just inside the Thistle half Norrie McWhirter crossed the ball to the edge of the Jags 18 yard line where Mark Yardley neatly headed the ball towards Stuart Taylor who was standing on the penalty spot. Thistle can think themselves fortunate to take something from this game but when you're in the position that these 2 clubs are in I suppose it is "dog eat dog" members.aol.com /Budsmfc03/stmirren/match017.htm   (658 words)

Thistle tried hard to add to their score before halftime with Peter Lindau dominating the game for thistle with some excellent holding and passing of the ball.

Partick Thistle 2-4 Kilmarnock - [Sunday Herald] For 20 minutes Thistle threatened to deliver and were well worth their one goal lead which came at the end of a fluent move in the 18th minute with Kenny Milne running at the Killie back four, linking up with the ever-willing Gerry Britton and then playing in an unmarked Jamie Mitchell.

Soccervision - Brief History and Honours of Partick Thistle Football club. On the playing front Thistle's two greatest achievements have been winning the Scottish Cup in 1921 and the Scottish League Cup in 1971, in both cases against all the odds, but then that's typical of Thistle. Patience is an essential part of the Thistle fans' make-up, but inbetween those dates the team wasn't totally unsuccessful by any means, as three League Cup Final defeats, one Summer Cup success and the winning of sundry Glasgow Cup and Glasgow Charity Cups will testify, not to mention the restyled First Division Championship in 1976. Well, there aren't millions of them, and that suggests being a Thistle fan is, to say the least, difficult and beyond the capabilities of the average person. soccervision.co.uk /forum/showthread.php?t=952   (1171 words)
