Smarmy Arab Posted December 9, 2012 Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 Teams are, more often than not, shaped and conditioned in the image of their manager. For the record I think Lomas has something as a manager, and Saints may well have found a real gem. His teams are well organised, well disciplined (tactically at least!) aggressive, and they play for each other and for their manager This is the down side, Saints play at the moment a has a degree of muscularity, good sides always do! if your side is pushed around they will not finish in the top half simple as that. But like their manager they need to work on certain aspects of their game before it comes back to haunt them at the business end of the season. This is the challenge for SL, who lets remember is a relatively inexperienced manager, but it will have to come from him, his antics on the sidelines will do him no favours in the long run.

MrBored Posted December 9, 2012 Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 After looking at the highlights...Anderson deserved to go, no way Miller would have got there before the St Mirren guy had his shot. Millar's first booking was stupid, no real need to do it and the second one was harsh. No way that should be a booking. Having said that, what was Wright up to after their goal? Lucky it was only yellow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintj Posted December 9, 2012 Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 Shame we couldn't of kept out their goal, going by the highlights we could of snatched all 3 due to St Mirren being so wasteful and Mannus keeping them out. I think Wright was lucky to stay on the park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Wright was lucky to stay on the park. From what I saw on the highlights the St Mirren player motioned his head towards Wright not the other way round. And if you are saying Wright was lucky then so was he. The ghost of Jim Morton 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if you are saying Wright was lucky then so was he. Only looking at it from a StJ point of view. We were already down to 9 men, the goal was given, so why have a set to with the StM player? Completely unnecessary and from what I saw, Wright was first to try and grab the guy and push/throw him out of the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SingaporeSaint Posted December 9, 2012 Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 Good to see our fans have Mannus as man of the match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucky it was only yellow. Thing is the REF hasnt got the benefit of multiple camera angles or close-ups (neither to supporters at the game) therefor the REF has to make his (or her) judgement based on what he or his assistant referees see. There were many "incidents" and "meaty" confrontations from BOTH sides ( which probably didnt make the "highlights" ).......BOTH sendings OFF were correct and justified.

john1962 Posted December 9, 2012 Report Share Posted December 9, 2012 (edited) Just watched the highlights and dont think we can complain about either sending off. Anderson turns to the left and slips as he tries to make up the ground. If he had turned to his right he would probably have been in perfect position to clear the ball. Thats not a criticism we all turn to one side naturally. Millar's first is a blatant professional foul. A let's take the free kick here out reasonably wide and without his second booking would have been a good decision. I am not sure he doesn't know exactly what he is doing with his second either. He cuts behind the St Mirren player and in front of the ref. Probably thinking, as happens regularly, that the referee would see it as accidental and just give a free kick. Mannus didnt deserve to lose the goal. His save in the lead up was fantastic as were a couple of others. On the highlights dont think there is any doubt we would have won with eleven men on the park. Highlights can be misleading as we know though. Edited December 9, 2012 by john1962 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scobby_SJFC Posted December 10, 2012 Report Share Posted December 10, 2012 Can argue against the decisions, Millars was crazy what was he thinking? Very poor and unless we sort it out will cost us many more point as it already has this season not to mention the fines the club will receive, Think the place in the Europa league for fair play is looking doubfall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
