Partick have a good catchment area?
Immediately neighbours Rangers Celtic, I don't think so.
The top team at the moment in the Scottish Championship is Ross County. They play in Dingwall whose entire population is almost 5,500.
Partick are traditionally a top division Scottish side. Their ground does have a bigger capacity than several current Prmeier sides.
Their squad is set up like a Premier squad not a Championship squad. And if Caldwell took them down they'd be playing several clubs who struggle to get 1,000 through the gates.
Death is simply quite right!
Against a team near the top Partick had 52% possession and 11 efforts at goal, and versus struggling Alloa they got 56% and 21 shots ..... yet still no goals. If you look at the squads Caldwell's rivals are carrying few look as though they should even give Partick a tight game ...... and as he doesn't really do recruitment this should be a job even Caldwell can do. Clearly his capacity to disappoint expectations is limitless.
