There’s nothing like heading up to Firhill on a Spring/Early summer evening, sitting in the cosy comforts of the Jacky Husband stand and awaiting for the arrival of the worlds greatest team onto the park.OK its not going to happen this Tuesday, but we all can dream. Anyone thinking of attending this Tuesday should also consider bringing their boots as Mr. McCall’s team is down to the bare bones.

Will they be dancing in the streets of Raith on Tuesday night? Or will the Jags fans be having a quiet
drink in the Tavern celebrating our first win over our opponents this season?

Frank Sinatra sang “pick myself up and get back in the race.”Will Thistle pick themselves up and win their next two homes games and get back into the title race? First up is the Inverness Jags this Saturday and a win is a must to keep our slim hopes alive. Lets hope we all will be going down to the Tavern to join in the fun after the game.

Ian McCall could bring in Ian Maxwell for this game, but the rest of the team should be on usual lines.
Richie Foran returns for Inverness and along with Adam Rooney and Johnny Haynes they will form a formidable front line.

Experienced Astronauts wanted! A private company in the US is hiring for a planned space complex which could pioneer space tourism. The question is will Jags fans be over the moon on Saturday at 4.45?

Looks like both Martyn Corrigan and Greg Shields are out. Striker Martin Grehan comes into contention to partner Liam Buchanan. He may have to settle for the bench because McCall expects his team to be unchanged.

It might be something you already realized but MET office figures out this week confirmed that this winter has been very very cold. The coldest since 1979 in fact with the temperature between December and February barely a chilly 1.5c “Jags” fans heading for Palmerston Park on Saturday will I am sure will be covered in head to toe with gloves, scarves and hot water bottles, just to give the team the much needed support it will need to gain victory at this difficult venue.

Ian McCall should have a full squad to pick from and it is possible you may see Jackie McNamara in a deeper roll this Saturday.

Queen of the South have Rocco Quinn and Leon Knight suspended.
