Disappointing all considered but at least we got a draw, win the home games take a draw away. Still doing well in the League and Cups maybe not as good as we would like but 3rd in the League, a European place and some silver is still available

Once again, the other results favour Aberdeen. Jammy b@stards. Never happens for us. Teams nearest them get hardly phuck all (agree that the Smells still to play), but St.Johnies, Motherwell and the Midden are a total phuckin let-down. There's no enough drink or drugs in my hoose to calm me down.

Cannae believe this was the same starting squad as Thursday. And cannae believe he never had Connolly on.

Even forgetting the game v Aberdeen where we were royally pumped, throwing away the games v Saints and Partick away is the reason we won't finish in the top two.

We must have the best home and worst away form in the f'n league!

Frustrating game, started well and we were cutting through their defence with ease and maybe should have made better use of it. We then stand off them and they regroup and we're on the ropes for the rest of the half, they should have been 3-1 up; at times we looked scared to move. Second half they shut up shop, close the channels, give us zero space and get everyone behind the ball but we eventually start making in roads after the changes.

Dubious calls by ref and linesman. Ref should have nipped Partick for constant pushing, pulling, backing into our players, falling over looking for freekicks and penalties....

Ciftci was knackered and needed replaced, we will struggle for top 3 if we only have him to rely on.

Two points dropped or point gained? I'm going for the latter after clinging on at end of first half.

Onwards and upwards. C'mon United, let's get rid of the deadwood and get a couple of players in this window.

Good call, happens I might join you.

TEK is going to be raging on here tonight.
 

No quite raging,more deflated that another 2 points were completely thrown away.

First 15 minutes if it was a boxing match Partick would have been told tae stay on their stool.Pummeled them and could and should have been 3 nil up.

Then Partick get a corner and lo and behold Rado concedes a very similiar goal to the one he let Anderson score in the Cup Final.Totally crap marking fae our defence also it has to be said,but Rado is making a habit of losing goals like this now (there was also one at Easter Road last season).

After that tbh Thistle murdered us till half time and pretty much played us off the park.Rado redeemed himself pulling off a great save right before half time.

Second half was pretty much all Utd but felt we huffed and puffed a wee bit.our equaliser was the one bit of class in the whole game.GMS going on a lung bursting run and beating 2 or 3 of their players before colliding with their keeper and Nads smashed in the rebound.Dow could and should have won it right at the death but tbh a draw was about fair imo.

Watson should never play Centre Half when Dillon is available.It's just daft and tbh i think McNamara is just trying to be a bit too clever again.This constant tinkering isn't helping the defence settle.ONE shut out in the league now in 3 months.Back 4 looked much more settled once Dilon tucked in.

Spittal done well at RB also.I know we signed him as an attacker but everytime i've seen this kid play well it's been at RB.Maybe his best position,who knows?

Rankin had a poor game,was chasing shadows and hardly touched the ball all day.Deservedly subbed and Telfer was far better when he came on.

Erskine had a bit of a shocker.Constantly took too long to take the ball down or took a touch too much.Invariably either gave the ball back to Thistle or allowed our moves to stall.Quite how he lasted so long in the match i have no idea.

Quite amazed we never saw Connolly in the match.Thistle are a decent passing team but their backline looked pretty pedestrian.Would have thought Aidan was tailor made to run at them with fresh legs.

GMS showed in flashes what we know he can do.Nads was a bit meh.

We've drew there the last 3 games in a row now but this one was definitely the most dissapointing.

Still need to find our best back 4,and still lacking one or two leaders imo.

Oh one last thing.Our crossing/final ball fae wide areas today = BRUTAL.This must be worked on a helluva lot more in training because it is really letting us down.

Rankin again absoloutely awful. Not surprised. I really dislike Rado, tbh. He may have had a very good save to prevent 3-1 but if he wasn't an idiot with the first I doubt we'd have lost. They only started to come on top after that. they were pretty horrific in defence.

 
Bold statement

Is Connolly fit again?

spot on mate...what i saw 2nd half believe me we will give somecunt 7
 

Erskine had a nightmare 1st half and i think that was our downfall it was like he thought he was playing dundee but nae danger was he getting that sort o time on the ball so personally that was our weak link 1st half but telfer made up for it  just wished we got the winner..ach well

decent point tbh.
