  1. Les is getting his own money back, were the Utd guys making a profit?
  2. 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?
  4. 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.
  5. 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.
  6. And another thing, in what way was it a free kick in the lead up to that fortuitous first goal?
  7. 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.
  8. Saints have been up the park 3 times. All our play is down the wings with poor crosses.
  9. No last man rule if a penalty is awarded, would have to have been reckless/violent etc
  10. 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.
  11. Penalty and sending off though, so possibly irrelevant
  12. I'm about to board a plane, land at 8pm. Please have the team lines and a concise summary of the first 15 minutes posted.
  13. Looks like I'm in for this too
  14. I am the greatest ever benefit of the doubt giver, I supported Sean Fagan, till the end, but no Blyth was not a player
  15. If he was on the edge of the box behind the striker he would only be 6 yards back. But as the goal was scored direct from the spot it is unlikely that the ref would award the re-take.
  16. Did Big Ben have to header that ball before the first goal?
