Yes , even Sutton would have been dwarfed by those guys - in a situation like that we should have kept the ball on the deck , too much ping-pong in the air . .

Tommy Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 59 minutes ago, Kemp said: It's a win but we really need to heed the warning signs here. McGinn, McShane and Magennis are not contributing enough in the middle of the park and - while I hate to agree with Elvis - it is true we are being bossed by mediocre teams now. I really hope we have some midfield reinforcements coming in for the second half of the season. We are in a great position and have tremendous attacking options in Morgan and Smith, we need to make sure we have a midfield that can dictate the flow of games if we are going to finish ahead of United. This. Let just hope that the manager see what we are seeing from the midfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonny Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 We should sign Williamson (Pars' right back) at the end of the season if we can - excellent player. Disappointing second half after a good first half but an ugly win is still a win. Onwards and upwards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FTOF Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Thought we should have been at least a couple up at HT. Would be interesting to hear the reasoning as to why their GK wasn't sent off. Second half we created very little. The defence, Baird in particular, did well to cope with the amount of pressure we invited upon ourselves. We will need to be considerably better next week.

Drew Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Well, that was a shitfest, but it's a win. Baird is my MotM. The big man was superb today. Absurd refereeing performance. Absolutely baffling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TPAFKA Jersey 2 Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Commentators on SMTV are hilarious. Going on about how the Pars keeper shouldn’t have been booked in the first half and that it wasn’t a foul, because he got his hand to the ball. Aye!! Outside the box ya dafties. i wouldn’t say it was a game if 2 halves. I thought we were brilliant first half and I think we also started the second half well. It was when we visibly started to sit back that it started to go wrong. Up until then I thought McGinn had been brilliant. Thought Magennis was poor today though. Morgan was unplayable in the first half, but his end product seems to have deserted him recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan Is The Man Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Happy with the three points but agree with a few that were lacking a bit off muscle in midfield, hopefully this get addressed in January. Think Dunfermline were probably good for a draw. Glad to see a settled defence start to reap some rewards. Would’ve loved Wee Gav to have stuck that chip away though. Would’ve made that second half a more comfortable viewing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julian Banjos Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 It's becoming stretched again at the top. Dunfermline falling away and Livingston are facing 6 games in 19 days starting Tuesday. That punishing schedule could well kill off any hopes of challenging us and United.

If it was due to fouling Reilly outside the box then I assume he took the easy option of deciding Reilly was moving to side as opposed to in on goal and there were players back to defend. I never noticed a handball by keeper at the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

norrie82 Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Agree. 3600 is very poor to be fair. Not much of an atmosphere to be honest. I don't understand it the team is winning we have a good management team and the club is driving forward. Sadly unlike in other seasons the crowds just haven't turned out yet at home.

As l understand it motm is a text vote during game. Explains a lot about some of the weird decisions we get, but then how often do we not all disagree over these choices no matter how they're decided?

Westmarcher Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Obviously, happy and relieved we got the 3 points today. Could have been 3-2 or any combination in between and 1-0 .... either way. Morgan had his flashes but MoTM for me was Smith (with Bairdy, Eckersley and McGinn also in with a good shout) so baffled when he came off when I thought Magennis was contributing far less. I like wee Gavin and would have loved it if he had scored against his old club. He puts in a great shift but really struggles with these high balls - should maybe get a pair of platform boots OR MAYBE THE REST OF THE TEAM SHOULD STOP PUNTIN HIGH BALLS UP TO HIM. Never mind, problem soon solved by replacing him with a shorter player .... yet somehow punting the high balls up to him as well still didn't seem to work ..... who would have thunk it?

Gordon Urquhart Posted December 16, 2017 Report Share Posted December 16, 2017 Ground it out today, something we were never able to do under worse managers. Baffling penalty incident for them. Tears up the coaching manual over referees not changing decisions Fantastic 3 points, most pleasing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
