    I may be in a minority but....I reckon he would have scored goals at this level!

    Very disappointed with Ball. Happy to admit, I got well and truly carried away with his performances in the sunshine against shite opposition on Tyneside last summer.
    I was convinced he'd shed some weight and do a job for us. Maybe I'm stubborn, but I still think there's a player in there somewhere. Sadly, I doubt anyone will ever find him.

    At least Ball could control the ball most of the time and link up with others........not many of the other forwards have done that this season. I would like to have seen him stay for next season assuming a good doze of the mumps had taken a few pounds off. He would have scored goals next season.

    Also very difficult when you don't have the best view to see a Harkins 2 footed lunge early on....oh no there he is...top left in the yellow that's him isn't it

    To be fair our lad hasn't helped the referee out by signalling what a terrible tackle it was by hurling himself 3 feet in the air and having a roll around. (ground slapping optional)

    The correct technique was shown later at Arquin's first yellow...tremendous elevation on that leap into the air which as all referees know is of course the natural reaction to having being fouled...not carrying on trying to reach the ball and looking a bit of a clown slipping as you're unbalanced. Leap and Yelp....Leap and Yelp...that's the way to show you've been fouled.

    Here's the 2 frames of 'no contact' on Arquin's boot which didn't put him off balance causing him to fresh air his attempt to pull the ball back into his stride

    ...and the 'no contact' from behind

    For all real lovers of no contact here's Dundee's defender prior to that making absolutely no contact with a passed ball along the 6 yard box as he hauls down Arquin.

    Referee clearly unsighted from his position

    Well I am defending him to the absolute hilt.First booking right on front of me a purely nothing tackle his foot not even off the ground.The second one ref couldn't get red out fast enough.How can the ref be 100% certain.Then you look at Tannadice on Saturday when the ref missed two stonewall pens.Surely in that case if the ref thinks he is being conned then the Well players are cautioned.Talk about consistency.

    I'd hang onto Ball. He's got something. Some good control and deft touches for such a 'large' chap. Just needs a goal or two to boost the confidence.

    Taking last night's game in isolation, I'm genuinely surprised at the amount of negativity surrounding it.
    We're playing away, in front of one of the toughest away crowds, against a team who've just come off their best result of the season.
    I know stats don't tell the whole tale, but we have more shots on/off target, double the number of corners, and that's despite playing almost half of the game with 10 men.
    We hit the bar at 0-0, had a fantastic chance to go 2-0, and lost the equalising goal in part to a deflected cross that fell perfectly for the Hearts striker.
    The winning goal comes from a very very soft penalty.
    But even after conceding that and going down to 10, the heads don't drop and we are the better team - indeed we could easily have scored 3.
    End result is another defeat, but I just don't get the negativity over what happened on the pitch last night.
    I really hope the players don't react to this in the same way as most of the fans have.
