What is the point of the Challenge Cup in its current format?
Big draw in the Challenge Cup tomorrow in which Thistle can only play Cove or Peterhead, good grief. 🧐🤡🤣

Can we start the campaign now for the away game at Queen's Park on 27th December to be moved to an appropriately-sized venue please?
The 2025/26 William Hill Championship fixture list is out now!

We'll kick-off our league campaign with a trip to St. Johnstone and finish with a home game against Queen's Park.

Ridiculous that a Palestine flag waved in solidarity and a banner condemning genocide should have resulted in this game being abandoned.
Proud of the players refusing to play behind closed doors, and the Clapton and Dulwich fans coming together was a special moment.
Clapton CFC will not face FA charges over our Women's First Team's cup final which was abandoned by venue and league officials.

An FA investigation has found that the Palestine flags were no risk to safety and were there for 'support and solidarity' 🇵🇸

Jags fans here, Jags fans there...
It looks like some Jags fans have been to Plaça de la Reina in Valencia

100 goals for Partick Thistle since signing at the age of 33.
Women's team manager, taking the club to a cup final.
Men's team Captain.
Interim men's team manager.
What a legend Brian Graham is.

Jakubiak controls in the box from Graham's flick and our number nine rifles it home for ONE HUNDRED!

Loving the scene in a central London bar, with a gaggle of intoxicated Glaswegians around a telly singing about the wonderfulness of Maryhill.

What an achievement for the Jags, getting the 6 points they needed from the top two teams as The Championship title went to the wire.
I'd written off our hopes, and don't see us doing much in the play-offs, but I'm massively proud to be there again.

- Partick Thistle will be the first club in Scottish football to appear in the Premiership play-offs in 4 consecutive seasons. #boingboing #COYJ 🇧🇪

Thistle's Aidan Fitzpatrick posted to social media last week about shaving his head in solidarity with his mum, Michelle, starting chemotherapy treatment last week.
Wonderful gesture of support from tonight's opposition.
A heart-warming gesture from tonight’s visitors @RaithRovers - a gift for @Fitzpatrick2001’s mum - Michelle Rooney!

It feels like a miracle that no-one died that day. I left because there was a queue for the bar.
I'm so glad that my friends who stayed are OK.
Three years ago today the mezzanine floor collapsed at a Hackney Wick bar, injuring 13 people. Many had been at a football match between @claptoncfc.co.uk and Stonewall FC at the latter’s ground, the London Marathon Community Track at the London Stadium. The incident made headlines around the world.
