Thistle 0 Alumni 7. Coach Billy Smith goes home to Scotland, the rest of the
team don't show up. It's a bit tough playing this game when only three guys
show up.
10/10/06 Partick
Thistle 5 Bullax 6. First game of the new season. A good display from the
guys who showed up but unfortunately it is tough to play this game without a
full compliment of players.
10/03/06 Partick Thistle 7 Atletico 7. We
were winning 6 - 2 at half time and controlling the game. During the second
half we let the game slip so very disappointed that we only tied at the
end.
Next week is the new season and fees are due - $100
per player.

Thistle 8 Dingleberries 3.
09/19/06 Partick
Thistle 5 Alumni 6.
09/12/06 Partick
Thistle 6 Barcelona 9. Only two subs this is what cost us the game!! We were up 3-1 at half time
but Barca`s five subs proved to be too strong in the end.
09/05/06 Partick
Thistle 5 Bullax 1.
Fine performance all round,well done!

08/08/06 Partick
Thistle 8 Oromai 3.
08/01/06 Partick Thistle 6 Alumni 9. The 6.05 kick-off doesn’t do anyone
any favours but it seems to affect our team more than others. At kick-off
time we had four players – not good enough. We have a squad of 12 – only 3
called Billy to let him know they couldn’t make it and everyone else should
have been there. Nevertheless we rustled up 6 players eventually and played
reasonably well but Alumni were too strong. With their 5 subs it was only a
matter of time before tiredness crept in and the game slipped away.
This was the first
game of the new season – a poor start considering we are the current
champions. Things must improve.
07/25/06 Partick Thistle 9 Parma 8
(Cup Final). Congratulations are in order, a fine result in the Cup Final!.
A great game and we came out on top by only one goal in the end but we were
always in the lead.
Another trophy to add to our growing collection -
next week we start all over again!
07/18/06 Partick Thistle 6 Barcelona 4.
Semi-final of the play-offs, both teams were evenly matched with 4 subs
each. Thistle had the early pressure but Barcelona caught us on the break
and took a 2-goal lead. We managed to pull one back just before half-time
and then in the second half we stepped up a gear and took a 4-2 lead. With
ten minutes to go everything looked good and then from nowhere Jason
Jenner (ex-Partick Thistle) scored two goals from nothing to tie the game
4-4 with five minutes to go. We rallied and eventually won the game
6-4...hats off to Seto Mardirossian who scored five of our goals. The
other was scored by Oliver Smith.
Next week we play Parma in the final - 8.35pm
kick-off. Don't be late!!!
07/11/06 Partick
Thistle 8 Dingleberries FC 5. At half time we
thought we had the game wrapped up at 5-2 but Dingleberries came back
strong and tied the game 5-5 then we woke up and finished strong.We
finished as runners up in the league,not bad,..we qualify for the playoffs
next week.
06/27/06 Partick
Thistle 13 Bulldogs 4. Thistle won handsomely against the Bulldogs who were
not firing on all cylinders. Still in with a chance of winning the league
but we need Barcelona to slip up.
06/20/06 Partick
Thistle 4 Alumni 7.
06/13/06 Partick
Thistle 4 Barcelona 8.
06/06/06
Partick Thistle 6 Parma
4 Another good performance – we’ve now played four games and have ten
points. Thistle were always in the lead but Parma never gave up and even got
a little bit of help from player/manager Billy Smith who scored two
goals…one for Thistle, one for Parma!!!
05/30/06 Partick Thistle 9 Ajax 4. We had 6
subs tonight...(!)...it's been a long time since we had such a turnout!
Ajax only had one sub. At half-time we were up 5-2 and we looked home and
dry but at the start of the second half Ajax pulled two goals back to make
it 5-4. We struggled for a while but the luxury of 6 subs ensured our
eventual dominance. Ajax performed well but ultimately their lack of subs
sealed the deal.
We've played 3 games and have 7 points...keep it
going!
05/23/06 Partick Thistle 8 Athletico
International 2. An excellent result - we have played two games and have
four points. It's looking good - keep up the good work. See you next week.
05/16/06 Partick
Thistle 4 Dingleberries 4. First game of
the new season and five minutes before the kick-off we only
had four players which is just not good enough. The Dingleberries had twelve
players up and ready to go at this point but fortunately two more of our
players showed up with a minute to go so we scraped together a team. The
game kicked off and two more turned up so now we were in with a chance. We
played exceptionally well throughout the whole game, defending strongly and
we were very unlucky not to win this game.
The Dingleberries are one of the top teams in this league and we can hold
our heads up high at a 4-4 draw.
Any outstanding fees are to be paid no later than this Tuesday and don't be
late for the games!
05/09/06
Partick Thistle 6 Black Tigers 2 Probably one of our best performances this season!
This was our final game and everybody pulled together to play as a unit.
When we lost the ball up front we quickly dropped back to our own help to
defend and this is what made the difference.
The Black Tigers are a good team but we managed to
frustrate them every time they managed to push forward. Thistle's first
goal was scored by player/manager Billy Smith which he claimed resembled
Archie Gemmill's legendary goal against Holland in the 1978 World Cup in
Argentina...but everyone else was too young to know what he was talking
about...!
A solid performance all around. Oliver Smith (no
relation), John Bentley and new player Carlos Burger played exceptionally
well and they all scored goals. Peter Stubberud has also joined the Tuesday
team and gave his usual 100%. Seto Mardirossian (our top goal-scorer for
both the Tuesday and Sunday teams) has decided to take a break but he will
be back - we miss you already, Seto!
05/02/06 Partick
Thistle 3 Parma 6.
04/25/06 Partick
Thistle 7 Athletico Internationals 9
04/18/06 Partick
Thistle 6 Ajax 8.
A great game, unfortunately we couldn't hang
onto our lead - we were out front for 90% of the game but with no subs
(!!!!) - holidays, injuries, working, family in town, plus a hundred other
excuses... cost us the game. Ajax had four subs so ultimately the outcome
was inevitable. However, the guys who DID show up - Matt, Billy, George,
Seto, Oliver and new player Roberto - did exceptionally well.
We are third or fourth in the league with three
games to go...we can still win it! See you next week.
04/11/06 Partick
Thistle 7 Parma 10.
04/04/06 Partick
Thistle 6 Bulldogs 4.
03/28/06 Partick Thistle 10 Select 5. We
were missing Mark the goalie who is still injured from Sunday but many
thanks to Jay Van Houten for stepping in at the last minute. Oliver Smith
from Skipton, Yorkshire (England) made his debut and scored a goal - well
done! Matt was back from injury and it was nice to see Justin at the
game...shame about Sundays...! George and Seto were in top form up front,
scoring most of tonight's goals and solid performances came also from
Charlie, Adrian and John Crockett. It was a competitive game and we were
always in the lead but Select never gave up and tried their hardest,
pushing us to our limits.
We have now played four games, have 7 points and
are sitting second or third in the league.
03/21/06 Partick Thistle 5 Dingleberries
5.Very tough game, a draw was a fair result for both teams with
Dingleberries missing lots of players (from their usual squad of
thirty...!!!) Played three games, won one, drawn one, tied one, we are
sitting in the top half of the bottom of the league, just above the
relegation zone... Did you get that...?

02/7/06 Partick
Thistle 9 Alumni 6. A good victory over one of the top teams in the league
and enough for us to win the league championship again with one game left,
congratulations everyone!!
02/7/06 Partick Thistle 8 Dingleberries 5. Our second
game of the evening a fine win over a strong Dingleberries team, next the
play offs lets go for the double!!
01/31/06 Partick
Thistle 7 Barcelona 3. Thistle continued
there winning ways with a fine victory at the Nou Camp!.. Ronaldinho and co
failed to impress only Big Jays left foot of Barca had the Jags running
scared when he turned and shot on occasion. Seto Mardrossian was in top
form scoring four goals for Thistle. In the crowd tonight it was reported
that scouts were watching Seto and others but player/manager Billy Smith
said after the game that he was going nowhere except home for his dinner
and up early in the morning for his work.
01/17/06 Partick Thistle 9 Bulldogs 7 Great
result against our nemesis the Bulldogs! We came back from being 3-0 down
to win the game and are now sitting proudly first in the league after four
games.01/10/06 Partick Thistle
8-6 Parma. Great result against a top team end to end stuff but I
think our 5 subs to their one made the difference in the end. We did slack
at the start of the second half, Parma stepped up a gear and scored two
quick goals in succession we started to look like a Celtic team at
Broadwood! eventually we came round and victory was ours. We now have 6
points from 3 games and 1 point behind the leaders with 5 games to go.
1/03/06 Partick Thistle 7 - 3 Ajax. Good
performance by all a marked improvement from the previous week, the game
was much closer than the result suggests.
12/27/05 Partick Thistle 4 - 10 Atletico
International. We got humped.....first game of the new season in the top
league, welcome back Thistle!.. excuses?.. only one sub to their four
plus we played badly because most of us turned up about 5 mins before the
k.o. get their early next week.
Tuesday Dec. 20th. Partick Thistle 7 -
2 United
Well done Thistle another cup final victory under
our belt, we played considerably better than our Sunday performance against
Aston Villa but don't let the score line fool you this was a tough game. At
half time we had a slender one goal lead 1-0,as we slowly increased our
lead United had no option but to go forward and we took control of the
counter attack.
Tuesday Dec. 13th. Partick Thistle 9 V Town
Boys 6.
Tuesday Dec. 6th
Partick Thistle 6 Par 3 Landscaping 1.
Congratulations are in order as Thistle lift the
league title tonight at the indoor league. The game started with the Jags
having no subs due to injuries, work and no babysitters....Par 3 had three
subs, the game started cautiously but we soon went ahead, good work from
Seto and George up front, Billy and George Kiss played at the back with
John in the middle, Matt was the goalie. Par 3 tried hard and never gave up
but Thistle kept everything tight and they found it hard to break through.
Tuesday Nov 29th
Partick Thistle 7 Miller Time 0.
Tuesday Nov. 22nd
Partick Thistle 3 Ajax 6.
Tuesday Nov. 15th
Partick Thistle 8 V Town Boys 1.
A Superb result against a strong team. Everything
went right for us and V-Town Boys just didn't seem to get any breaks.
George Skrabua was like a cat in goals, still pouncing at the age of 54.
Meanwhile in the other net Tim, our ex-goalie was playing exceptionally
well but was just swamped by the pressure of the relentless Thistle attack.
We subbed quickly and often which kept the team fresh which ultimately led
to the result. We are first in the league - we've won every game except one
which we tied.
Keep up the good work!
Tuesday Nov. 8th
Partick Thistle 9 Internationals 7
We took our foot off the gas and let the
Internationals back into the game, George Varhelyi and Seto Mardrossian
were in top form, we are currently sitting 1st in the table 1 point ahead
of the chasing pack.
Tuesday Nov. 1st
Partick Thistle 10 FC Select 5
We were always the stronger team in this match but
FC Select never gave up. Now we have played 3 games won 2 and drawn 1,lets
keep up the good work.
Tuesday Oct 25th
Partick Thistle 8 United 6. Great game we managed to just keep our noses in
front during the game and right to the end.
Tuesday
Oct 18th Partick Thistle 6 Dynamics 6.
This
was our first game of the new season in the second division. We were
definitely the favorites to win this game and we had most of the chances.
The Dynamics defended bravely and caught us on the counter-attack. What
their goal-keeper lacked in height he made up for in every other department
– certainly man of the match. We were always ahead in the game but the
Dynamics managed to drag themselves back into it due to our sloppy
defending. All the players knew at the end that we should have won this game
but it was not to be and Dynamics have to be congratulated for not giving
up.
Tuesday
Oct 11th Partick Thistle 6 Bulldogs 11.
Tuesday Oct 4th
Partick Thistle 9 V Town Boys 2.
At last, at the end of
the season, a victory that we can be proud of! We passed well, defended
well, executed well and George Skrabu had a great game between the posts.
Kick-off next week to be announced…

Partick Thistle 10
Elite 3 Excellent game, we defended very well. Elite lost their elitism
during the second half and failed to score a goal but they are a good team
and can play much better than they did tonight. We are now joint first in
Division 2 with Elite but their goal difference is better by one.
Tuesday July 5th
Partick Thistle 8 Team Rental 5.
This was a division 2
team (us) versus a division 1 team (them) but we played extremely well and
were always in the lead. We controlled the game mainly because we defended
better than we have in a long time and we frustrated Team Rental. The score
was 5 – 1 with 12 minutes to go and the game opened up with a flurry of
goals on both sides due to tiredness. Nevertheless it was a great result for
Partick Thistle and we now stand second in Division 2.
Tuesday June 28th
Partick Thistle 9 Miller Time 7.
Tuesday June 21st.Partick Thistle 9 Rovers 5. Rovers are one of
the new teams in the league and haven’t won a game so far. Our record wasn’t
looking too good either, having won one game out of a possible three. At the
end of the day we won the game but our defending was poor – this league is
still wide open and we can still win it. Next week we play at 6.30pm against
Miller Time – all fees to be paid next Tuesday or else!
Tuesday June 14th
Partick Thistle 5 United 3 We had 11 players
tonight which was exceptional, usually 5 or 6 is the norm...! We managed to
pull it together and win our first game of the new season. United defended
well considering they had no subs - we should have won the game by more
goals, there again you could look at this match and say United were unlucky
to lose as well.
Tuesday June 7th
Partick Thistle 6 MNE Champs 8 This was our first game against MNE Champs, a
new team in the league with some old faces. We had a new goalie, Tim Jackson
in goals with George Skrabau as back-up. It was a close-fought game but in
the end our inability to chase back when we lost the ball up front
ultimately cost us the game. New player Brian Dyke played well and hopefully
he will become a full team member. All fees overdue are payable next
Tuesday.
Tuesday May 31st
Partick Thistle 6 Elite 10 First game of the new Tuesday night indoor league
season, we had some new players in the line-up. Unfortunately George
Varhelyi and Joe Rohr are absent this season due to work commitments and
Mark Collingbourne is still out due to injuries. Nevertheless we still
managed to field the team and we were in the game but Elite’s dead ball
shooting from a distance proved to be our undoing.
All fees due as soon as
possible.

Good game, we were losing 6 - 3 at half time. In
the second half we stepped up a gear, everybody played well and defended
well despite missing a few players who were injured.
Fees due for next season = $90 per player, payable
to Billy as soon as possible.
02/15/05 Partick Thistle 5 Alumni 4
A much better performance this week despite our
top two goalkeepers being out injured. Joe Rohr did exceptionally well in
goals. This week, when we lost the ball we defended well and we frustrated
Alumni. Our league position is not reflective of what we are capable of
achieving - let's hope we can start climbing the table with this victory.
02/08/05 Partick Thistle 6
Ajax 8
We had this game in the bag, winning most of the
time but again we shot ourselves in the foot. Simple stuff, simple stuff,
lose the ball, mark a man and we just can't do it.
02/01/2005 Partick Thistle 8 V Town Boys 3
01/25/2005
Partick Thistle 8 Team Rental 11
A dismal performance. After being down 9 - 1 at
half time (which is just unbelievable) we managed to bring ourselves back
into the game during the second half and make the score line respectable.
Basically our defending was totally unacceptable - the basics of soccer
completely ignored for a free-for-all, over-the-top attack that would make
the charge at the Battle of the Somme look tame. Hence complete failure,
not to mention embarrassment.
01/18/2005 Partick Thistle 8 Alumni 11
01/11/2005 Partick Thistle 12
DROR 7
First game of the new season and we got off to a
flying start - 3 points in the bag against new team DROR. This game was
recorded on video - anyone who would like a copy please contact Billy or
Jayne...!!! All fees are due A.S.A.P, payable to Billy, Jayne or Joanne,
$80 per player.
.
Partick Thistle 9 Las Vegas Express 4
This was the last game of the season. Las Vegas Express were missing
some players tonight but we still managed to have a game, player/manager
Billy Smith scoring a hat trick, the first time in a few years...!!!
Next week all monies due for new season. Our first game will be
against Alumni at 6.30pm Tuesday November 2nd - don't be late and
don't forget your $90.
Partick Thistle 4 Team Rental 7
This was the semi-final of the play-off and Team Rental beat us for the
third time this season. They are definitely our bogey team but good luck
to them in the final next week.
13th October
Partick Thistle 15 Las Vegas Express 9
Quite a good game.
09/28/04 Partick Thistle 4 Team Rental 5
These games are always close but this one was on a knife
edge...unfortunately our killer instinct wasn't as strong as theirs and they
overcame us in the end.
.
09/21/04 Partick Thistle 12 Las Vegas
Express 8
Twenty goals in 45 minutes, what a mess. LV
Express had no subs, we had 5 and we still couldn't dispose of them until
the end. The only good thing about this game was that we actually won it.
9/14/04 Partick Thistle 6 Alumni 2. Don't let the
score-line fool you, this game was very close. At 2 -2 at half-time it could
have gone either way but we battled hard and got the three points.
9/07/04 Partick Thistle
7 Barcelona 3. Good game of football, well done everybody. Hope Celtic get a
similar result against Barcelona next week...!
8/31/04 Partick Thistle 4 Team Rental 5
This was a very close game, with Thistle being 4 -
1 down at half-time. It was looking grim but we came right back into it in
the last ten minutes - a good come-back but we couldn't scrape that last
goal.
Next Tuesday 9pm kick-off against Barcelona.
All outstanding fees must be paid A.S.A.P.
08/24/04 Partick Thistle 7 - Ajax 1
First game of the new season, and we started with
a good solid performance against new team Ajax. Three points in the bag -
see you next Tuesday!
08/17/04 Partick Thistle 1 - Team Rental 3
Tonight was Cup Final night. We played very well
but Team Rental edged us out with scored their third goal with the last
kick of the ball (just to add to our misery!)
This summer season wasn't all bad, however - we
finished second in the league behind Team Rental and were runners-up in
the Play-Off final.
Next Tuesday we start all over again!
08/10/04 Partick Thistle 7 Alumni 4
Despite tensions at the beginning of the game,
Thistle pulled it out when it mattered and go forward to the final. Well
done, lads. Next week the game is an 8pm kick-off against the winner of the
Mexico DF vs Team Rental match.
07/06/04 Partick Thistle 14 Alumni 6
A rather embarrassing number of goals scored in a
short period of time, suggesting that maybe Ray Clemence was playing for
both teams... Alumni were unbeaten before tonight but we managed to catch
them with a few players short. (No subs).
We have played 4 games and have 9 points along with
four other teams in the top division - it's a very close race. The Tuesday
night team seem to be outshining the Monday and Sunday teams at this
moment.
06/29/04 Partick Thistle 6 British
Bulldogs 3
A very entertaining game against our old nemesis
the Bulldogs. We had 5 subs (where did you all come from...??!!) against
the Bulldogs 2 subs. This gave us the definite edge.
6/22/04 Partick Thistle 10 V-Town
Boys 8
A very open game - 10-8 is not a score line any
coach would like to see. Fortunately it did favour us - this was our first
victory in the top league so I suppose we should enjoy it!
06/15/04 Partick Thistle 3 Team Rental 5
A very good, close game - with a few
minutes to go Team Rental scored 2 goals to put the game beyond us. We were
unlucky to lose and probably a draw would have been a much fairer result.
This is the first game of the summer season in the
top flight division for us. Next week we play....can't remember, watch this
space!!!
06/08/04 Partick Thistle 8 V-Town Boys 2
This was the final of the Final Four.
Congratulations everyone on a good Tuesday night season - we did the
double, winning both League and Cup!

Tonight we had
four subs which was unusual - nice to see Rod back in the team. Within the
first five minutes we took a three goal lead which seemed to knock the wind
out of Advanced Metal and when they did have a chance they couldn't get it
past Mark who made some spectacular saves. They had to attack which gave us
the opportunity to counter-attack which we made full use of.
Next week is the cup final at 8.10pm against V Town
Boys. Don't be late, the $80 registration fee needs to be paid as soon as
possible.

Partick Thistle 7 V Town Boys 3
The winner of
this game (us) won the league - congratulations to all our players for your
efforts! It was a close league between ourselves, V Town Boys, Advanced
Metal and The Rams.
05/19/04 Partick Thistle 9, Las Vegas
Strikers 4
Only one sub but it didn't stop us taking early
control of the game (get me a cup of tea, love). Half-time 5 - 0. The
second half opened up a bit more, both teams relaxed and the goals poured
in. Final result 9 - 4, three points in the bag.
We are joint first in the league with two games to
go - if we keep winning our goal difference will ensure that we win the
league.
Next week 9.50pm versus V-Town Boys.
Fees are due for the new season, anticipate $80 per
head.
05/12/04 Partick
Thistle 7 Advanced Metal 2
This was a game
we were all looking forward to - two teams, both of which had played four
games with nine points, joint first in the league and with the added
interest of Seto Mardrossian and Jon Crockett (two of our ex-Tuesday night
team-mates) playing for the opposition! It was nice to have four subs even
though Advanced Metal had six subs! The first ten minutes there was nothing
in it but eventually Thistle started to take the lead and take control of
the game. The final score was a little flattering to us, but it was a very
enjoyable evening!!! Some fees still outstanding, get them paid ASAP.
05/04/04
Partick Thistle 7 FC Barcelona 2
Welcome back Mark from his Chinese travels, even
though George Skrabua stood well in the nets whilst you were gone! Tonight
only one sub due to injuries, shop openings and the usual mysterious
disappearances.
We started with Mark in goal, Billy, Joe and George
S. the back 3, Matt in midfield and George V. up front. David Harris came
late (as usual) and was our sub. We took control of the game early but the
4 - 0 halftime score line was probably a little flattering for us.
Barcelona played well but lacked the finishing touch and we finished the
game winning 7 - 2 with some nice 1 - 2's near the end which were a joy to
watch. We continue our good run on Tuesday nights, winning 3 out of a
possible 4 so far.
Barcelona, to their credit, were missing some of
their superstars, notably Rivaldo and Ronaldinho!!!
Next week we play on Wednesday night 05/12/04 at
8.10pm against Advanced Metal (Seto's team). This team have won every game
so far so hopefully this will be their downfall!
04/27/04 Partick Thistle 7 Sevilla 8
This is a game we should not have lost, but all
credit to Sevilla - they did everything right and it paid off. Arriving
late to the game is not acceptable and our over-confidence in winning our
last three games was our downfall tonight. We've played four games now and
have 9 points - we are still in the top half of the league but cannot
afford any more slip-ups.
Next Tuesday 05/04/04 kick-off is at 8.10pm -
please be at the game at least 30 minutes before the kick-off. We are
playing another Spanish team, Barcelona!
04/20/04 Partick Thistle 13 The
Peruvians 3
This was our third game of the season and our third
victory - things are going well! The Peruvian team did start the game a man
down but their players came in late and they eventually had a full squad.
Mark Collingbourne still AWOL in China so George Skrabua in goal, George
Varhelyi first game back after injury. He came through the game okay but
still not 100%.
The Peruvian team were never really in the game but
they were missing some of their first team players. Better luck to them
next time.
04/13/04 Partick Thistle 7
Renegades 0
Our second game of the new campaign and our second
victory. Keep up the good work, our next game is April 20th at 5.40pm
versus The Peruvians. Fees payable to Billy ASAP and don't be late for the
game, it's rush hour!
04/06/04 Partick Thistle 7 Rangers 0
This was the first game of the new season in the B
league - George Varhelyi and Terry Devlin out injured, Seto Mardrossian has
left to start a team with his brother (good luck, Seto) but we did pick up
Nick and Neb from Red Star Belgrade.
Rangers were missing some of their players but the
result was never a surprise. Good luck to Rangers in the future but in the
meantime we are the Big Boys in this city!!!
3/23/04 Partick Thistle 9 Rangers 4
The bookies got this one right, no surprises here,
the wee team Rangers tried their hardest but we were just too strong for
them, even though Mark Collingbourne our goalie was AWOL! This was a
play-off game, Rangers of course from a lower division, where we will be
next season because we have been relegated from Division A to Division B.
Fees payable ASAP to Billy, $80 per player.
3/16/04 Partick Thistle 3 Red Star Belgrade
6
Still missing some key players, injured and on
vacation. Red Star deserved the victory.
We've played 8 games and collected a total of 6
points - this is our worst season ever on a Tuesday night. We are now
officially last in the A league and next season we will be playing in the B
league. Obviously, we seem to be mirroring the Partick Thistle across the
Atlantic - this has to stop.
This Tuesday, because we came last in our league we
have been drawn against a team in the B division for the playoffs.
Ironically, with all due respect, this lesser team is none other than
Rangers!!!! This will be our first meeting and, unusually, Rangers will be
the underdogs.
3/10/04 Partick
Thistle 5-10 Mexico DF. With a change of dates for this venue Thistle
put out a sub par team with many of the regulars unable to play. It was
still a good performance against the league leaders but lack of substitutes
found Thistle lacking in energy towards the end of the game were Mexico DF
capitalized.
3/02/04 Partick
Thistle 7-11 High Rollers.
Another poor performance sees Thistle go to the bottom of the league.
2/24/04 Partick
Thistle 4-6 Team Rental.
More mistakes give Team Rental their first victory.
2/17/04 Partick Thistle 3-6 Alumni.
A sub-par performance by Thistle saw them go down to a much improved Alumni
team.
2/10/04 Partick Thistle 6-2 V Town Boys.
David Harris, George Varhelyi out injured and Rod Dobson somewhere in Miami
- all missed tonight's game. We took the game to V-Town Boys and found
ourselves 4-0 up in the first half. In the second half we stepped off the
gas a little bit, but final result was 6-2. We now have six points from
three games and we're slowing climbing the table.
2/03/04 Partick Thistle 4 British
Bulldogs 3
Very entertaining game, match very close, we
managed to sneak a winning goal near the end and clinched the game
4 - 3. Mark Collingbourne still out with the flu, George Skrabua played
well in the nets as reserve goalie.
James Martin has now joined the Tuesday team along
with Nader Cheetany.
1/27/04 Partick Thistle 5 Red Star Belgrade
8
Thistle lost the first game of the new season
mainly due to losing possession and not chasing back quickly enough when
the other team counter-attacked. All fees to be paid next week, $80
per player.
1/13/04 Partick Thistle 5 Red Star
Belgrade 9
Thistle went tumbling out of the 6 a side over 30's
indoor cup on Tuesday night, losing 9- 5 to Red Star Belgrade. Mark, our
goalie was away on holiday in Bristol, England, but substitute goalie
Georgie Skrabua put on a stellar performance in goal to no avail! The rest
of the team were not clicking on this night. Good luck to Red Star in the
final next week, we will have to settle for the third/fourth place playoff.
Kick-off 9.50pm, opponents unknown at the moment.
P.S. Does anybody know the phone number of Simon's
dentist...!!!!!
1/06/04 Partick
Thistle 6 Brazilian Bulldogs 1
Thistle went down 1 - 0 early on in the game but
came storming back and took control of the match. The Brazilian boys were
always on the defense hoping for the quick breakaway but it wasn't their
night.
We finished the season in second place, table to
be posted. Congratulations to Team Rental for winning the league.
12/30/03 Partick
Thistle 15 Celtic 3.
Unfortunately for Celtic, on this side of the
Atlantic, they are the wee team! But to be fair the Celtic players tried
the best they could to hold their own but they were no match for the
Thistle team who were just too strong for them.
12/23/03
Thistle 3 Bulldogs 4. Very close game, we were always one goal ahead and the
Bulldogs always came back to equalize until it was 3-3. In the last few
minutes the Bulldogs snatched the winner. We had no substitutes so I suppose
it wasn't a bad performance.
12/16/03 Thistle
waited until late in the game before they took control of a closely
contested game against the up and coming side Alumni. Thistle coming out
victors 9-6.
12/09/03 Thistle had flash backs from when
Scotland played Peru as Universitario came out wearing the Peruvian strip
(only Billy would know). Thistle though coming out victorious on this
occasion with a result of 9-5.
12/02/03 Thistle won 12 - 7 over the
Brazilian Bulldogs, MVP was Georgie Skrbu who scored a cracker from 25
yards. A good game and a great win!
11/25/03
Thistle
played Redstar Belgrade and won 7 - 5 in a very close game. Redstar are a
new team, very strong and they will have an impact on the league. There was
only one goal between the teams almost the entire game until the last few
minutes where we sneaked a two-goal lead and managed to hold on.
11/18/03 Opening game of the season - we
lost to our great rivals Team Rental 11 - 7. We did have a few players
missing but that's no excuse. All Thistle had to do when we lost the ball
was to drop back into our own half like the opposing team did, and pick up
a player each, and we would have sealed the game.
11/11/03 The new season starts this
Tuesday Nov 18th, 9.50 pm kick-off against Team Rental. Fees are $75 per
player payable to Billy on the night - see you there about 9.15 pm.
11/11/03 Partick Thistle 11 Miller
Time 7
For the second successive season we have
managed to lift the cup in the over 30's indoor - congratulations to
everyone involved! Unfortunately we came third in the league table,
hopefully this will improve next season.
11/04/03 Last night Thistle won 9-5
against Brazilian Bulldogs, very close game until about the last 5 minutes
when we managed to streak ahead. More importantly, the intensity of the
game stretched our nerves, especially Rod Dobson and David Harris who both
got sent to the sin bin...at the same time! Our supporters were having a
stressful time too - Joanne Geiger (season ticket holder) was escorted from
the dugout because of her vociferous support of Partick Thistle which knew
no bounds!
10/28/03 An undermanned Miller Time were no match for Thistle as
Thistle win convincingly 12-6 and make it to the play-offs.
10/21/03 Thistle get back on track with a convincing victory over
High Rollers 12-4.
10/14/03 Thistle loose another close fought game going down
to the hands of Team Rental 4-3.
10/7/03 After going back and forth the Brazilian
Bulldogs finally took control of the game and came out victorious 10-7.
9/30/03 Eleven must be Thistle's lucky number as they beat V
Town Boys 11-4.
9/23/03 Thistle beat a previously unbeaten Rams team 11-7.
9/16/03 Tonight Team Rental avenge their cup final loss to
Thistle last year with a comfortable 7-4 victory.
9/9/03 Thistle played a high scoring draw with Universitario
7-7
