shull Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 Erwin - Another cheating diver. Should have been sent off for that outrage yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stlucifer Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 On the strength of the last few games I thought young Erhahon should have been on the bench at best. He has become a liability in the midfield as he refuses to tackle and is now, in the main, sitting too deep to affect the offensive part of the game. I can only assume the likes of MacPherson must be dreadful in training to warrant Ethan starting in front of them. As for the game. We just about merited a draw but the way we got it was a bit embarrassing. Erwin went down in stages after his sleeve was brushed. If he has a conscience he'll be hiding behind the settee when the highlights are shown today and I'm pretty certain Michael Stewart will have a field day.

FTOF Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 Turns out it was a great spot by Madden for the penalty. Turn the sound up on the clip and you can clearly hear Mugabi's contact with Erwin's boot. The angle it's filmed from gives you more perspective on what actually happened, compared to the front on view.

As FTOF mentions Mugabi takes Erwins foot away as he Erwin play the ball. It was obvious at the time on the replay. Not quite getting where the confusion was. A bit soft but on balance it was a pen.

St Mirren FC (@saintmirrenfc) / Twitter If THAT had been given against us the forum would have been shouting about the ref being, well, the usual mince. Hey, we, as I said yesterday, are carrying some luck right now, better than bad luck. Edited January 10, 2021 by faraway saint Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be given as a foul all day long if it was outside the box. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've watched it a few times. My first inclination was what you said but I'm not convinced there was any contact. Looked like a dive to me. As I said. I thought we did enough for a draw but I don't think the penalty was justified. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
santaponsasaint Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 Watch the Motherwell goal back again. He has at fault there. OMG. The only player to make a mistake. Cancel his contract and clap him in irons and dangle him from the town hall. [emoji31] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bud the Baker Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 Am currently watching David Bowie @ Glastonbury 2000. I'd never noticed before but there's a "Grey" type alien in a Saints top (although it was actually green coloured) 👽 visible during the intro to Wild is the Wind - oh and by the way it was a penalty.

Desperately Seeking Susans Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 In recent times there has been a debate as to whether a player should go down if there's been some form of illegal contact. As we've seen in other games, the football pundits have said, 'had he gone down he would have won a penalty'. I think that our penalty was a wrong decision but, in the current culture of penalty box activity where players artistically manipulate the rules ie. 'dives', Erwin succeeded and he could be complimented. Had that draw yesterday saved us from relegation, Erwin would have been praised as a hero.

turrabuddie Posted January 10, 2021 Report Share Posted January 10, 2021 The penalty wasn't any softer than the one given against Shaughnessy v the Fakes.Exactly. Soft, but technically correct.Wouldn’t have been a penalty a few seasons ago, but unfortunately, is now.Will definitely take it though !

Only Erwin's heel. Unless of course the club "deep faked" the clip. Edited January 10, 2021 by FTOF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erwin was being pulled away from the ball to which his foot was outstretching, when THAT foot was whipped away from him. Penalty all day long....
