A Crowd of Alan Archibald
The Jagscast regulars feature in a bumper edition of the Jagscast. We take a look back at the 2011-12 season, the highs, the lows, the spectacular, the bizarre, the lot. Manly J Panda follows up his interview with Jaggy Mac at the start of the campaign, looking back on his first season in management. We also have interviews with man of the moment Paul Cairney, following his superb hat-trick at Dundee, and speak to Alan Archibald ahead of his milestone 400th appearance in a Jags shirt.

Davie Ferguson's All-Time XI
Poppa Jag has named his All-Time Thistle XI. He reckons that they'll tear the young'uns a new one. What do you think?
Goalkeeper: Alan Rough
Roughie was worth at least 10 points a season to a swashbuckling Thistle who were far from being tight at the back. An instinctive goalkeeper who, at the time, was among the best in the world.
Right Back: Jackie Campbell
A great leader, Campbell shades Craigan as captain of this All-Time XI. A more defensive option at right back adds stability to the side. 406 games for the Jags and a solitary goal.
Left Back: Sandy Brown
In his time, Brown was a flair player, a novelty at fullback. I only saw him for about a season before he moved to Everton and he was really missed by Jags fans, many of whom started looking out for the Toffeemen's results. A top player, who scored one of the best own goals of all time.
Centre Back: Alan Hansen
I'm sure this player would have been in all the JagsCast XIs if the selectors had been old enough to see him. A stylish, skillful defender who read the game beautifully and went on to be one of the best players in Europe.
Centre Back: Stephen Craigan
Reliable, solid defender, great at one of my favourite skills in football: the long throw. He offered a credible threat from the touchline with his throw-ins, an essential feature in our double promotions. Not as good a reader of the game as Hansen, no matter what Manly J. Panda and VBL think.
Defensive Midfield: David Rowson
I'm going to use Rowson in a truncated version of his box-to-box role, with responsibility for winning the ball and driving counter-attacks, as well as filling in for the marauding Brown. Rowser can also strike a ball at goal, as we all know. The best and most consistent Thistle player over the last 10 years.
Centre Midfield: James Callaghan Charnley
I knew about Chic's ability when he was at primary school. In fact, I saw him sent-off for foul and abusive language aged 10 years old in a schools match (I was manager of the opposition, and delighted to see him go on that occasion). While he had excellent skill on the ball and read the game brilliantly, he's in the team for his passing ability: he could land the ball anywhere on the park with a swipe of his left boot.
Right Midfield: Robert "Bobby" Houston
Speed and trickery. An unpredictable player. My mate Joe and I even named a drink after him: a Bobby Houston is tequila and irn-bru.
Left Inside Forward: Neil Duffy
A good goalscoring record (better than 1 in 3), Duffy can still be seen at Firhill nowadays. A clever player with the ball at his feet and set up dozens of goals for his strike partners. He always reminded me of Puskas's mate Ferenc Bene, both physically and in terms of play. A true Maryhill Magyar.
False Nine: Gerry Britton
Good eye for goal, Britton was skillful in his own way, and he did an awful lot for school football in the Glasgow area. A good influence on and off the field who is well-liked by the fans at every team he has turned out for.
Striker: Doug Somner
Somner scored over sixty goals in quite a weak Thistle side - the most of any player other than McParland in the modern era - and with the service he'll get from the three behind him he'll score a hatfull. Good with either foot and with his head.
Substitute Bench: Kenny Arthur to keep Roughie on his toes and under 120 kilos, Brian Whittaker to provide support across the backline, Ronnie Glavin can take on the Rowson role with a nice blend of skill and steel, Dennis McQuade will come on for Houston to terrorise the opposition for the last twenty minutes and Davie McParland can come on for Britton or Somner in case it's not working out up front.

Thistle 4-0 Ayr United
The Jagscast for today will be up shortly, but in the mean time, here are some (poor quality) videos of Cairney, Erskine and Doolan scoring the 2nd, 3rd and 4th goals at today's game, and a close chance for Rangers loanee Kyle Hutton and some smooth passing play with Thistle in control for the whole of the second half. Great game.

First Jagscast of the season
And we get gubbed by Berwick Rangers.
VBL does get to meet Chris Erskine, however. And we hear Bill Shankley inducted into the JLHOF, the panel's thoughts on summer football, the voices of genuine Thistle fans in pre-season optimism shocker and something about a bouncy castle.
And coming soon: the Jagscast available through iTunes! Never miss an episode!
many thanks to Tommy Taylor for the photo of Chris Erskine getting his Jagscast POTY Award for last season

Stephen Craigan: World Class Football Brain, SFL-class Football Body
VBL and Donald Marc Corcoran Balatoni (for Six Months) Donald were at the Stephen Craigan Testimonial Match at the other 'fir' place on Wednesday. Click on the link below to hear their thoughts and the thoughts of fans of both the Norn Iron's star's clubs.
Interestingly, VBL used to put Craigan up front in FIFA 2003. Some JagsCaster trivia for you there.

Pie Scalextric: the Season Review!
End of Season Review - Pie Scalextric by Jagscast Crew
A bumper end of season special, with Jagscasters old and new. Vincent Black Lightening MC is joined by Manly J Panda, Cowie, Donald Marc Corcoran Balatoni, Mackie and chapwithwings, the Pope (or Queen) of Jagscast!
We look back on the season that's just been: the highs, the lows, the spectacular and the bizarre. Balatoni lets everyone know about the POTY Dance, Mackie's nervous ahead of his debut in the Firhill Cup, and Vinny's dad makes a cracking pizza. We induct for the last time this season another manager into the John Lambie Hall of Fame.

Jagscast - Dundee 5th March 2011 - Matthias Sindelar - a poor man's Erskine
In this epsiode: VBL, Donald "Marc Corcoran" Balatoni, Cowie and "Duncan" discuss the horror show which was Mark Wilson's goal; League reconstruction; and Rella pride.
Special feature on Matthias Sindelar, centre forward in the famous inter-war Austrian "Wunderteam". We have a suspicion a certain Thistle enigma is related to "Der Papierene" by virtue of a rendez-vous when he made Scotland look silly in 1933.
