munoz Posted August 27, 2023 Report Share Posted August 27, 2023 Thought we were outstanding from start to finish today. Daylight robbery that we never walked away with the 3 points. Great start to the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stlucifer Posted August 27, 2023 Report Share Posted August 27, 2023 Absolutely gutted. Was that offside for what seemed a good goal even in the same phase of play? Why would VAR even mention a double touch for their penalty if it wasn't? Aberdeen will be carrying their point up the A9 in a swag bag. Why is it that VAR checks WTF they like? If they check our goal for offside missed by on field officials surely it would be consistent to check for a mistaken foul for their goal. All this apart an almost flawless performance by our outfield players. It's such a shame we were denied by a stupid mistake by our goalie and poor decisions by officials.

Ronnie Posted August 27, 2023 Report Share Posted August 27, 2023 The most complete performance I think I've ever saw from St Mirren cannot remember dominating one team like that for a full 90 minutes ever. There are 100 more things to say about that match but ultimately it's the St Mirren way to do things that ending. On the bright side though grab 3 points by good, bad or downright lucky next week and a very good chance we go into international break top of the league on our own.

Sent from my T610K using Tapatalk Aye, amid the understandable frustration over VAR it shouldn't be forgotten how good the performance was. 7 points from 9 and in the quarter final of the League Cup, what's not to be happy about? 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey maybe it is just me but I am very c!ose to chucking it after 60 years. I do not really give a fuc k what anyone else thinks but VAR is likely to finish me off.I barely watch any televised football with VAR as it bores the tits off me as you have no idea how long a match will last. When I started going to Love Street you left the ground at 4:40 and wondered up the road to the Court Bar for it opening at 5.00. Mostly are lucky to be out the ground by ten past five. I accept I am an old fart but I think my football end is nigh. All the best to you all who still like watching faceless pricks deciding matches. It is no longer for me. Preferred when the players decided matches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BanburyBud Posted August 27, 2023 Report Share Posted August 27, 2023 1 hour ago, guinness said: Football is becoming a pile of shite. Good goals scored suddenly cancelled for reasons no-one in the ground knew about. Goals disallowed when even the players of the team favoured have not claimed. Genuinely think in a few years attendances will fall because people are pissed off watching games being decided by people not in the ground with no interest in the flow of the game. Also why does an obvious penalty like ours today require such a !ong check? If the criteria is clear and obvious five minutes is a joke. All you online watchers can fuc k off but we who attend are becoming fedup. I have to agree with you on this bud. Being of a similar age, I feel that VAR is draining everything that has fuelled football all my life. Emotion, discussion, controversy to look back on, joy of celebrating. For me it’s all gone and as for time added on…. Well 😔 Maybe I am just getting old and maybe I’m just reacting to today’s decisions but with VAR I believe football has lost so much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a player Olusanya looks. Can't believe this is the same player I saw playing for Arbroath. We have quality all over the park and really have a great chance of pushing on from 6th last season.
