wellfan09 Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 Yasss! Absolute peach from Humph, he's had a good couple of games this week, hopefully keeps it up at the weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 Funny how teams perceive themselves. Aberdeen and ICT are have excellent season but we're having an average (and if you believe Sky - a below average) (and if you believe a lot of folk on here - a full-on crisis) season yet we're on the same amount of points as Aberdeen, and one behind ICT Aberdeen losing at home and us winning away is the perfect day for me no matter what the table looks like. Looking forward to going into work tomorrow now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foghorn Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 Did ZFA have a good game? MFC TV talk team gave him a good report midway through 2nd half. Sounded like he was doing the right things and carried the ball when required and knew when row Z was the place to put it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nethertonwellfan Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 I'm quite enjoying this SPL season. What other league in the world is a 6 horse race? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kmcalpin Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 Just back home. A great 3 points so well done Stuart and the lads. Two good goals with Humph's being a scorcher and candidate for goal of the season. What a goal!! United came back into it in the second half and it was nail biting stuff. Very poor ref who let a niggly United side off with murder. Great 3 points. Depressing to hear the Arabs moan and whinge at everything from start to finish. Humph's goal will go down as a real jewel.

milo Posted November 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 We hung on for dear life for just about the entire 2nd half! Seemed to lose every header and break off ball until a last gasp clearance but a fantastic 3 points at the end of the day and a bit of justice for the undeserved defeat by Utd at Fir park recently. We started on fire and Higdons finish was actually pretty good. Humphreys goal though was out of this world though! An unstoppable thunderbolt and contender for goal of the season surely?!?! Ojamaas pass in the build up wasn't too shabby either. I thought we did ok after that initially, but Utds play through the middle was both clever and effective and too many times they came straight through the middle of us. Their goal seemed to come out of nothing though and at 2-0 the next goal is always important. The game seemed to have a lot of very good shots on target by both teams at this stage. Second half was real backs to the wall stuff and we defended very deep nearly the whole half. Any out ball we had seemed to be wasted and just serve to invite more pressure on ourselves. It would be harsh to single out failures in the team after such an important win so I won't, although there were a couple who I thought were slack throughout. League position and points tally is looking great now, despite many of us (including me) often being quite critical of performances and results. I really just feel this is because the home form is so poor. Swap a couple of home draws and away wins around and I think we would all view things differently. Special mention to the ref tonight whom I thought was atrocious! Let umpteen blatant fouls go unpunished and gave us literally nothing all night. No idea if Utds goal was offside. Hope it wasn't!!

sbcmfc Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 Did ZFA have a good game? Yes, they tried putting John daly on him to use his height, but McCall figured it out quick enough and had cummins on daly wherever possible. Not a flawless performance, but for only his 2nd start (?) he was on the whole good, confident on the ball, showed strength to win or keep the ball and dealt with most things.

sbcmfc Posted November 27, 2012 Report Share Posted November 27, 2012 SPL goals coming up on SSN.. We didn't play well tonight, but then we have played well in other games and had nothing to show for it. Must have done something right though!! Neither team could keep the ball, but we took our chances well, and defended well enough that they were restricted to long range shots, and fortunately missed when they did get in. Great to get 3 points in a game we would normally (and maybe should) have lost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steelboy Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 a great win. that's the first time we've ground anything out this season and that's the most satisfying type of result. we played some good stuff in the first half and probably should have scored a few more. we looked solid at the back in the first half until hutchy had a bit of a brain fart but he made up for it in the second half with a lot of great blocks. we rode our luck in the second half but still managed to create a few chances. united just lumped it to daly for most of it and we were flapping at points and the ball was coming back all the time as the two strikers couldn't hold it up front at all but we showed a lot of character especially in the final 10 minutes. zaine was excellent despite a couple of silly errors and cummins came onto a game late on as well, united decided the two of them were the weak link in the first half and played almost exclusively down our left but they coped well with good support from murphy. humphrey deserves a fair bit of credit as well not so much for the goal as his work rate. bobby madden was rank, he obviously sees himself as scotland's answer to howard webb and seems to make it up as he goes along. skacel was diving and fouling for the 90 mins but somehow never got booked, both sides had decent penalty claims turned down and his general handling of the physical side of the game was shocking. it will be interesting to see their offside goal but it should have been our free kick anyway for one of their players headering carswell and bursting his nose.

sbcmfc Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 Special mention for the united fan behind the goal with the white hoody that celebrated the offside goal by giving it GIRUY to the 'well fans long after everyone else had realised it had been disallowed!

texanwellfan Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 Pick it out!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ln4CsadpzVA Cheers for psoting up the video. What a great goal that was. From our box all the way to a goal. What an excellent transition. You could see the 2 men on Ojamaa and 2 men on Humphrey but Oj done well to gather the clearance, control and pick out the pass. Humhrey with a good touch and excellent strike to get us the goal from 2 against 4. damn!! that was like a real football team!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Stall Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 Love the quote from McCall on BBC. It would appear he actually does see the same things as the rest of us..... "Normally Chris hits it over the stand but he struck it sweetly and it was a fantastic goal - from their corner I think it was." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobey_Dosser Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 Really composed finish from Higdon, while Ojamaa's pass and the subsequent strike from Humphrey was sublime. Really pleased for Humphrey, IMO he's looked like one of our better players for most of the season. Confidence is clearly a major part in his game so hopefully he can have a sustained purple patch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spiderpig Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 1 pass to Ojamaa, turns 2 defenders and takes out another 2 with his pass to Humphrey...what a hit from him and its a goal... If Barca had scored like that they would be raving about it for months. Goal of the season so far for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthewman79 Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 I have to agree with this, the goal was a peach but I Ojamma's contribution to the goal was superb. I agree with you on that one. Ojamma hasn't quite hit his goal scoring form as yet but the last few games he's been excellent. That pass to humph for the goal was absolute perfection.

numpty Posted November 28, 2012 Report Share Posted November 28, 2012 Really composed finish from Higdon And another one to add to his left-peg tally. For all his critics, being able to score with both feet is a heck of an asset for a striker to have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
