andrew Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 It was hard to judge the second half chances for County from the other end. It seems to me that our keeper saved most of them and the defence blocked the rest. Our chances were perhaps more clear cut, with bar and post denying certain goals. So, to me, our chances were better and County's keeper was, well, dodgy. Therefore we deserved the win, especially with only 10 men for an hour. Whatever anyone comes back with doesn't matter. It's all about the result! I said way back that I thought we'd come good, and the signs are there. Let's keep it going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

andrew Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Thought his record was meant to be good - i.e. never been sent off until coming here. Checked and found no red cards going back to 2001. Rechecked and found 1 red card in 261 matches. For brentford in 2002/3. 49 yellows in those 261 matches, so 1 in 5 yellow and 1 in 261 red. Until coming here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Real Saints Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 A strange game indeed. I thought we were dire for the first 45 minutes and our play didn't really merit a 1-0 lead at half-time. However, it was a moment of individual excellence from Liam Craig which has to be credited. I didn't see the Vine red card incident but, if it was indeed deserved, it was highly idiotic of him to put our lead into jeopardy. Ross County may well have been playing nicer football than us, but they rarely threatened our goal until we went down to 10 men. The equaliser had been coming. Aside from Murray Davidson's baffling miss, Ross County had all of the chances in the second half up until the last 15 minutes or so. The most important statistic is that they failed to put more than one of their numerous chances away, thanks in part to an excellent display from the defence and Alan Mannus in goal. Incredible moment when Frazer Wright headed an unlikely winner into the net. Mental celebrations. We had a couple of other opportunities after that, and the team and manager must be praised for their grit and determination to get a result against the odds. A great day out all round. Good weather, great pub lunch and drinks at The Mallard, entertaining match and 3 points in the bag. It's a shame to see Ross County's unbeaten run end, but I'm glad we're the ones to have done it.

Thomas_sjfc Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 What a day, left home at 8am this morning just, got home around half an hour ago, what a day i've had, and even the Saints game didn't come along to spoil it, what a magic moment when our second goal hit the back of the net. If Carlsberg did Saturdays.... COYS :laugh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave Ferg Posted September 23, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 I see the comment above re County's keeper being a bit rubbish. Liam Craig had an attempt on goal from his own half blocked just in front of the main stand as their keeper was wandering about at the edge of his box picking his nose.

garydavidson Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 Worst thing about the game was Tokley only getting 45 minutes at the other end of the pitch.Sure ghostie had held back some abuse for the second half. What a difference Davidson made when he came on. Was solid in every challenge and really brought out the best in the rest of the midfield. The feeling when that second one went in was amazing. Good reminder of why we all pay so much money for it. The ghost of Jim Morton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good reminder of why we all pay so much money for it. I was gutted when he never reappeared. Had held back loads of stuff. I only got the " Give him a carrot and some hay and the donkey will be fine" shout out ( when he was injured). Never mind, there is always next time.

The ghost of Jim Morton Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 (edited) Sadly the match highlights do not shed any light on the Vine sending off. They also failt o show quite a lot of Ross Countys efforts and Saints clearance off the line. . Infact they make it look like we were by far the better team and had by far the better chances. If I was a Coonty fan I would be pissed off.. Edited September 23, 2012 by The ghost of Jim Morton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cagey Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 Highlights were shite. Sometimes different on show. Not sure if some refs would have allowed our second as it looked like a Saints player may have fouled a defender at the corner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching it from behind the goal I was thinking the same as you. Then watching it on the telly once, it was debatable. Watched it again and could see what the commentator described as the first Saints player rising early. Concluded that there was NO foul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
