FTOF Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 Whilst probably technically correct, both looked like penalties we'd be disappointed to get awarded against us. All three of their goals could have been avoided if we'd closed down more quickly. Great finishing for all of the goals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scam75 Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 (edited) Great link! Enjoyed the replay to confirm what my eyes saw earlier! 2 pens could be seen as soft but pens none the less and the porkly wright had to go. Good save from the captains pen, not a great pen, but young mclean showed him how to do it! And how sweet thommo's winner! Off to bed happy!

Seaside Nipper Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 Wow, shambles of a game...... all the crazy , the good and the bad all on display in one sitting ! Don't care........ A couple of crucial things for me today override the madness....... Players stayed with it throughout the lapses in our play and believed in their plan , the managers plan The manager deserves great credit for simply keeping it all together in context , the talk of small steps of progress built on work ethic is good, team spirit seems to be stronger than has been asserted from certain quarters lately Finally, congratulations to all on back to back wins, for me as a fan to see seven points from nine offers real signs that things can turn. All I want is indication that honesty and hard work pays off. As long as there is a team pulling for a common cause, I'm a happy buddy. Well done all Paisley minded sorts........

If it bothers you that much get an email sent to Vincent Lunny and get him banned for 3 games. On another note is it now illegal to tackle? 2 tackles one from Vanzy in first half then Goodwin in the 2nd half both looked to have won the ball. In Vanzy's case if it was a foul then it was a booking for either endangering an opponent or excessive force. In Goodwin's case he was booked for what looked like a fair challenge. 7 points out of 9 is our best SPL run for how long? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lex Posted October 19, 2013 Report Share Posted October 19, 2013 Personally i never thought we played that well today, out of our last 3 performances i'd have this performance as the worst of the 3. I thought our ball retention was poor and our defending was all over the place. But, we won, so it's okay. Thankfully, we have the fire power of guys like McGowan, McLean and Thompson at our disposal, they are doubtlessly among the best players in the nation in their respective positions. These guys really got us out of jail today. It really is mystifying that a player of the quality of McGowan was being misused/dropped in the early part of the season. Thankfully the management of the football club has seen sense and restored the best number 10 in the country to his rightful position, and the team is reaping the rewards. Players should be moved to accommodate McGowan, not the other way around. Hopefully the manager won't put his ego and his next 'marquee' signing before the best interests of the team again.

Just pointing out that an experienced pro should have a wee bit more about him than to give gestures like that to young kids, I'm not that bothered as we had the last laugh.

Eddy Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 While we're talking of kids, a wee shout out to the panda club who were in fine voice today. During the first half I could hear them singing 'oh when the saints' and making 'wheeeee' noises at the saintees goalie - not bad at all considering I was as far away as w6.

faraway saint Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 Our first goal is an absolute cracker. What a move! Indeed, the passing game, beautiful but also nice to see we mixed it up, the last goal coming from a long deep ball. The penalty miss was more a save than a poor penalty although McLeans penalty was unstoppable. The amount of knickerwetting on here when the penalty was missed was a joy to behold. Pity I'm incapacitated, next weeks game could be a cracker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hambud Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 McGregor and Mair are pivotal in our transformationwithout wanting to sound negative after a great 3 points, I thought McGregor was shocking defensively yesterday. Great header to set up Thommos winner though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidg Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 without wanting to sound negative after a great 3 points, I thought McGregor was shocking defensively yesterday. Great header to set up Thommos winner though. Totally agree. Dilo in goals and then moving Goodwin into midfield is what's made the difference. McGregor and Mair coming back were just a bit of a coincidence IMO. Goody back in there is given the midfield more freedom to venture forward, especially Gowser who was playing so deep towards the start of the season.

McGregor (I think) took a step back from him as the ball came in and May went down as if he had been shot when McGregor was a good yard away from him. That should have been a booking.

Pity I'm incapacitated, next weeks game could be a cracker. to be fair to any knickerwetter it was a nailbiter and we looked to be throwing it away at every given chance. Everytime we took the lead we couldn't retain the ball, missing a pen and playing against a team that got better when they went down to ten men, were all signs that we were going to make a mess of it. However we didn't, we got the points, we got the hallowed back to back wins while not playing particularly well. Well done Saints. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was a terrible dive but he didn't book McGowan for a shocker either so he was consistent with that. May was up to loads of dirt tricks on Saturday, especially jumping into our players who where going to win headers when he wasn't even looking at the ball.

His behaviour their last few visits to us has been shocking, wasn't sad to see him stretchered off which I know isn't a good thing to say but f**kem. Also thought wee Brian May was a dick trying to intimidate Dilo when he was kicking it out. Edited October 20, 2013 by Hambud Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the knee jerk reaction to look for someone to blame that was hilarious. Sure, we've all experienced us losing games like this but the need for a scapegoat was unnecessary.

Hambud Posted October 20, 2013 Report Share Posted October 20, 2013 Super challenge by DVZ and ref gives a free kick...was that the challenge he got a card for? Not seen the highlights but both Vanzy and Goodwin seemed to make great challenges which got them bookings. Usual from wee Willie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
