  1. Bowman comes on at half time, that's his thing, when has he played well from the start, whereas he has had a number of good second half contributions.
  2. Second half was so much better. First goal might have been fortuitous and a penalty is always a bonus. But after that we were able to boss the game. We should have scored more but there was an obsession with getting a goal for Bowman rather than playing the more obvious pass. Shows team spirit perhaps? Bowman contributed well outside the box and Campbell crunched a few tackles. Was Tait moved to take him out the firing line, he played well on the left. McLean looked composed when he came on. We seem to have a number of options.
  3. What did Henneghan do to deserve a card, and was the sending off because the ref thought there was no attempt to play the ball, a foul in the box is no longer a red card.
  4. Finished with a midfield that won the Youth Cup?
  5. That's us up to 10th in the league, keep it going.
  6. Les is getting his own money back, were the Utd guys making a profit?
  7. Also, all our players should go on a refereeing course so that they know the rules and can talk to the ref in their language. Every industry uses certifications to help improve their staff, football has coaching and refereeing, why not get a certificate. They have plenty spare time.

    Irn Bru Cup

    I notice the low crowds from the other ties last night, am I going to be on my own?
  9. On balance I agree about Tait's defending for the second, but he was run into a crowd of players and blocked off from making any challenge before the shot was made.
  10. The forward players need to commit more, they played the ball across the 18 yard line to each other then laid it back for the left back to blast over. We should be looking to play forward, not back, have a go.
  11. And another thing, in what way was it a free kick in the lead up to that fortuitous first goal?
  12. It's hard to say conclusively that no part of the ball was inside the box. It's comparable to when you see a corner kick taken with just a slither of the ball hanging over the quadrant. Any part of the ball inside the box should mean it is inside? McHugh's second yellow wasn't the violent close to a straight red that has been suggested, it was a robust challenge but unfortunately that sort of challenge sometimes gets a yellow. This issue was the needless first yellow. Dunne, I have no idea if he clipped the boy. We must have had about 60% possession but did very little with it.
  13. Saints have been up the park 3 times. All our play is down the wings with poor crosses.
  14. No last man rule if a penalty is awarded, would have to have been reckless/violent etc
  15. No extra time in the earlier rounds, County used their 4th sub before we did, did any of yesterday's games go to extra time? Eta, Dylan Mackin was a 4th sub last night, Falkirk had used theirs first.
  16. Penalty and sending off though, so possibly irrelevant
