porks Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 Been thinking about this, and really our league position does not befit our performances this season - we have not had our just rewards. I've done a bit of analysis. We got our first three points against Partick Thistle courtesy of a dodgy penalty award with the last kick of the ball. Then another point after another last minute dubious penalty against Aberdeen when really we should have been about 5 down by then. Add to that another 3 points against St Johnstone when they had two perfectly good goals ruled out, followed by a point at home against the brilliant Ross County, when they had another perfectly good goal chalked off for offside which would have put them 2-0 up. Who says Scottish refs are bastards? We have been jammy feckers this season and should think ourselves damned lucky to have any points at all...

pod Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 (edited) I, but or luck doesn't extend to winning more game and/or offloading our present manager. Edited December 3, 2014 by pod Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mid Calder Saint Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 Yes but to counter your argument were desperately unlucky at Fir Park on the opening day.Moreover we played Dundee off the park earlier in the season.

TopCat Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 There was certainly nothing dubious about the penalty at Pittodrie, even Willie Millier admitted it was one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TopCat Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 Not to mention against Ross County we had a perfectly good goal ruled out when it was 0-0 and that their first goal was 'dubious'. And most Partick Thistle fans admitted that our penalty at Firhill was correct. Apart from that... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pozbaird Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 I agree. Our league position IS false. It should be one lower, but Ross County are really shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TopCat Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 I agree. Our league position IS false. It should be one lower, but Ross County are really shit. I agree with that certainly. Given how bad we've played we shouldn't only be bottom, we should be at least 6 points adrift at the bottom. It really shows you how bad the teams around us are that we could be clear of the relegation places come 5pm on Saturday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smfcbuddie Posted December 3, 2014 Report Share Posted December 3, 2014 Did everyone forget the handball by the PTFC winger in our last meeting? All set for 0-0 when that incident happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
