That’s fair. Miserable day in most ways. I’m still feeling cold from the soaking I got on the way in!

Crawford and Blues had to be getting their efforts on target, but they weren’t quite the gilt edged chances Partick were gifted then wasted. He’s not got a great leap, but he did win three or four in the air. Had a few neat touches to bring others around him in to the game too. On the flip side, he wandered up a few blind alleys, giving the ball away, and looks off the pace - as you’d expect from a guy who’s come back from a long layoff and picked up another injury before getting 100% fit. All in, a pretty rancid game given the conditions and the galling factor we conceded off the back of a soft free kick awarded after Graham flung himself to the floor.

Partick attempted invasion of the shed: foiled

Blues and Gillespie in, Moffatt and Garrity on the bench.

Any obvious sign what the injury may have been? Looks like it was a double substitution.

Moffat today

Keaye and Adeloye both on the bench

Confirmed. Initial short-term deal until the summer.

Manchester United to build their 100,000 capacity stadium using prefabricated ‘modules’ to be shipped down the canal. A couple of thousand of those containers, give or take? [The Norman Foster plan does look like it would be very impressive, provided they can get the cash together. Not convinced the proposed government backing would be universally supported, mind you]

I wonder if they’re now being manufactured specifically for non-shipping purposes, rather than converted, like some of the container workshop things you can buy for your garden - a prefab built specifically to fit on existing trucks to be readily transportable. In any case, not at all a serious suggestion, as you no doubt sensed - though the thought of stacking a dozen or so up for the sheer oddball spectacle of it holds some appeal…

Stack they cabins up to create a formidable wall and Cappielow will be like the Scottish Bombonera!

An unexpected win always feels that little bit sweeter

This was a follow up to a previous post where they said they wouldn’t be attending. I assume that’s still the case. I wonder if they’ll be milling about on Sinclair Street to voice their displeasure.

I will likely sound very old saying this… but I just don’t understand them as a group (or any of the self-styled ‘Ultras’) Their IG page has pictures of them all in black with their faces blurred or masked - actively trying to manufacture a reputation for being dangerous, intimidating and implicitly unlawful, in that they need to try and hide their identities. Yet, among their numbers they expect to be immune from consequences of their actions. “We’re passionate about making a good atmosphere.” If that’s all the group as a whole was doing that would be brilliant. Clearly, though, some of them have been picking fights, disturbing other punters and acting in legitimately dangerous ways. If some of the seven have been wrongly tarred because of those around them I hope that can be rectified - but I would also encourage the boys to check each other for the negatives and aspire to be better than some of the other groups they’re running up against rather than mimicking them. ETA: they have videos shared on IG that are almost entirely blurred out and with no sound - rendering them utterly pointless. I really don’t get that. TLDR: I don’t get it.
