The long journey across El Kessocko

Think it's about time there was retrospective punishment for people who pretend to be injured like that ass hole who got tanser sent off the amount of cheating and diving that goes on even from ours is ridiculous not being touched but roll about as if they have been shot .

Or VAR gets used, if a foul was committed the player gets a red card but if a player was play acting the player who would have been sent off gets one free kick to the offending players haw maws. It would certainly stop play acting.

especially the one checked for the first penalty who acted as if he had been knocked out, he went down and stayed totally still but afew mins later was up and running around, still think that was a full body and arms save.

Grabbing a few great last gasp winners since 1877.

Congratulations Buddies.

Somerset and Starks Park in the year 2000 spring to mind. 

Also, Bone's header at Burnden Park was legendary as was our celebrations behind the goal.

Listen I couldn’t give two f**ks if the whole world laughs at me as long as my predictions keep being wrong because then I'm a very very happy guy.so wire in dosent bother me in the least.

If your predictions were all correct, St Mirren would be lucky to be in the football league.

They aren’t ‘predictions’ when you always just say we’ll lose.

Delighted with the game there, it’s nice to be able to be a bit more chilled about VAR decisions because we’ve won. 😂

What are we saying, up to five wrong VAR calls? The two handballs, the two fouls (including Brophy) and one of the handballs being a red for goal scoring opportunity. 
 

Wild.

As you are well aware VAR isn't the issue it's the idiots who are employed to operate it that is. If we had decent, independent officials we wouldn't have considered VAR in the first place.

While I agree the standard of referee is shocking I don't think we have the resources to allow any referee to judge many of the contentious incidents. VAR can only be as good as the facilities allow. We don't have anywhere near enough camera angles to adjudge whether a player is a toe or a dip of the shoulder offside . The same as when there are bodies flying all over the shop in a penalty area. We either reduce the use or get rid.
