Watching the highlights, both penalties are correct. I think you could give ours for either handball or the lunge, but no doubt it was handball. Long’s challenge was on the line, so penalty. He was lucky not to be sent off I think.
Other points:
- Morrison was further out than I thought at his goal, what a fucking strike
- Steeves absolutely should have walked for a second yellow. Although I notice his reaction time was piss poor for our first goal.
- I didn’t think Nesbitt’s challenge was a red, but was a bit rash.
- The Montrose time wasting was ridiculous. I accept its part of the game, but sooner they start introducing 10 minutes of time added on in the way they do in England now, the better.
- If the Donaldson chance at the death falls to anyone other than Donaldson, it’s a goal.
- I really don’t get this “it was an even match” thing. This first half was, but the second was mostly us. We had more than double the number of shots on target and triple the shots off target. Entertaining though, good to see a team not stick everyone behind the ball
