Shaggy Jenkins Posted December 26, 2020 Report Share Posted December 26, 2020 A better performance maybe but that still only elevates us back to the level of looking a bit better on the ball in the middle of the park. Still practically zero attacking threat where it matters and still guaranteed at least one goal lost via a complete defensive **** up.........it's not a good mix Cagey 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got a dodgy penalty award at st Mirren that was completely undone by an even dodgier descision to send Gordon off!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted December 26, 2020 Report Share Posted December 26, 2020 McCann won the ball and was absolutely raging at the decision going against him. Must be something when he explodes at ref and gets booked for it. Even Aberdeen commentators were confused by a lot of the refereeing decisions. Ref stopped the game at times when he should have just given advantage. Stopped the game at every opportunity. I missed the penalty decision but will watch the highlights.

Can’t legislate for diving cheating so and so’s in the box but we do need to make sure we aren’t giving refs decisions to make because 100 per cent we ain’t going to come out on top! The league’s a joke and the fact we are half way through the season and they are still ars**** around with points to be awarded/deducted because of Covid highlights the shambles that is Scottish football. I truly wish that rather than rejoice that natural order has been resumed because Celtic and Rangers are slugging it out at the top they got their act together and got refs who are actually fit for purpose! In the meantime COYS... It's ok the ref's assessor will sort it. Edited December 26, 2020 by Indicator Wendy Saints 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cagey Posted December 26, 2020 Report Share Posted December 26, 2020 Eveñ Del says it wasn't a pen but he thought it was hand ball minutes earlier & I think that claim was in the refs mind. Hendry second booking harsh. I think Tanser will be out for a few weeks. Have to see out the next 2 or 3 weeks & hopefully CD has a few signings lined up.

I think the handball claim was seconds earlier and not minutes was a case of a player's reaction to stopping getting a ball in the puss. Certainly not a penalty any day of the week n second claim less so. Hope tanser ok but looked a sore one as he tried to keep his feet as he landed. Thought we were good first half n spells of second half,but got to stop the spendings off pointless n costly as I think we missed Mikey's pace today. Feel that six points is a must and possibility from next two matches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny B Posted December 27, 2020 Report Share Posted December 27, 2020 Merry Christmas to all. Missed the Rangers and Aberdeen games due to the festivities. Therefore no comment. Will catch up on Stains tv later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted December 27, 2020 Report Share Posted December 27, 2020 Wasnt a penalty for the handball. Arms were not in unnatural position as they were by the body as ball hit at close range. We've seen them given wrongly for that before. Nothing for the penalty. Cosgrove just dropped to the ground to get a penalty. Also thought Hendry's sending off was also wrong. Dont think either were bookings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bruno Strasser Posted December 27, 2020 Report Share Posted December 27, 2020 The hard luck stories have to stop. The players need to channel this properly and fight back with points on the board. Next two games will go along way to deciding our season. dunkeldneil, Havana Saint and Coltrane 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cagey Posted December 27, 2020 Report Share Posted December 27, 2020 We had nearly 40 mins to get an equiliser but never threatened them. Disappointing after a good first half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
south inch Posted December 27, 2020 Report Share Posted December 27, 2020 Michael Stewart on Sportscene scathing in condemning the penalty award. Also thought the "handball" claim was nonsense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HALLS ANGEL Posted December 28, 2020 Report Share Posted December 28, 2020 I know Derek McInnes is an ex player and manager of Saints but I find him quite objectionable. His comments on Sportscene how the penalty was justified because it was handball before, when it was obvious it was never a hand ball. Could he not have just said we were lucky to get the decision..In the cup semi final he moaned on about Saints equaliser as he wanted a foul for a high boot. In the new Saints book Derek McInnes is rated above Paul Sturrock and Alex Totten , how I don’t know. As for Alan Muir the referee smirking away after he had given the penalty, no wonder players loose the rag Saints had a good claim for a penalty when Ash Taylor bundled Liam Gordon over at a corner but as others have said our players aren’t vocal enough. I have been going to see Saints for over sixty years and the one thing that would put me off is is the standard of refereeing . To sum it up I really grudge the money paid to other clubs when I feel we are blatantly cheated. So I suppose the answer is don’t give them the cash to make them stronger and pay for referees who are weak human beings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
