A 19th century player & part of the first Firhill directorship, little did he know that his grandson would be an even bigger Thistle man! The original JOHN HARVEY is our #Movember Jag of the day.

Day 28 and our PTFC boys are pushing the 3K mark, wow:

Those who were there will never forget Station Park 2001, and PAUL McGRILLEN is forever remembered. Globally, 1 man dies of suicide every minute, every day. The issues are complex, but #Movember is positive; it's good to talk above all else.

It's double good news from last night as the 19s recorded an important win at Palmerston to move within a point of Queen's Park at the top. #COYJ 🇧🇪

- For third third consecutive year AIDAN FITZPATRICK scores against Dunfermline Athletic. ⚽️⚽️⚽️

In our 150th anniversary season, life without red & yellow is unimaginable to the Thistle fan, ingrained in our DNA (good & bad) for 90+ years. Our new Partickle pushes back the date of the first outing; an intriguing tale of chance, science & psychology!

Red And Yellow: How It All Began
Many fans will have their preference for either hoops or stripes but why they have so much emotional investment in red and yellow, and what it means to them to see Thistle running out wearing them, is...

Played for Jags & Pars and no Thistle player has scored more against Dunfermline than 6-goal LIAM BUCHANAN, our #Movember Jag of the day. Seems legit.

It's day 25 for the PTFC boys in their quest:

All the best to JOE CARSON, 72 today. We got double value out of the big centre half by switching him to centre forward now and then. Still our all-time second highest scorer vs. Brechin City with 3 goals! ⚽️⚽️⚽️

Our PTFC boys are supporting #Movember

- At Firhill, it's just 2 losses in the last 30 (THIRTY) league games at Firhill, a solid run of near-19-months.

#PTFCStatsWatch 👀

- 5,461 is a new club-record crowd at Firhill in the SPFL Championship. It's the biggest league crowd at Firhill since Feb 2018 (7,332 vs. Rangers) and the biggest second tier home league crowd since April 2013 (5,663 vs. Dunfermline). Great win! #COYJ 🇧🇪

- 2-1. For the first time in 18 years, there will be no "nil" in the scoreline of a Thistle v St Johnstone game at Firhill.

⁉️ Any talented Jags fan out there that can give us a good red and yellow version of this classic 1935 photo? It'll be the lead shot in a forthcoming 'Partickle'...
November 22, 2025 at 10:31 AM
Jags v Saints at 3pm and today's #Movember Jag played for both. TONY WATT has a healthy 9 goals or assists in his 20 outings so far. Omitted from our hairy mob to give others a chance.

It's day 22 for the PTFC boys in their quest:

A Flynn O'Brien pen early in the second half had us dreaming of cup glory, but Hibs showed their quality to come back. Pushed them right to the end. Good effort against the elite league table toppers. 🇧🇪

It was just over 10 years ago when MUSTAPHA DUMBUYA became the 34th man to win a full international cap in Partick Thistle brackets, and the wee buzz-bomb is our #Movember Jag of the day. 🇸🇱

The PTFC boys are right on the verge of raising 2K:
