  1. Just watched highlights, definite penalty and possibly should have been retaken as came off his line (would have had to have a goal line cam to say for sure). Second half the takeout of Wighton with free kick going other way was just ridiculous. Mayo never a second yellow, there was contact before which was a free kick but dive was blatant once Mebude was well past Mayo.

    Highlights make a tepid performance not seem as bad. Wasn't much in it to be fair and Pars had more of the play but lacked a bit of spark in final third.

    Not concerned about Friday as they should be up for it.

    Maybe my mood was too upbeat writing this, as YouTube rolled on after highlights and played the cup defeat of Rangers from over 30 years ago.

    Calling for Craw's heid after each time we have a defeat is fickle behaviour, generally same ones that go overboard at a win. Don't get me wrong, yesterday was an opportunity (along with Friday) to reel Hearts in before they next play and I was had a deeper depression than the multiple potholes currently peppering Fife's roads.

  2. It should be but Hearts under Nielson are shite and the general standard of the league is pretty grim this year too. You have some cracking players and with a really good manager I think it would be possible to at least push them close. Anyway, I've said enough here. 

    Think apart from Hearts there’s not much in this league. If the standard is “pretty grim” maybe Grant should be under pressure given he’s bottom of the pile? Anyway, I've said enough here. 
  3. I disagree. The point I am trying to make is if Dunfermline had rolled up there sleeves and got on with it , who knows what may have happened. Crawford sent out the wrong message right from the start.

    Agreed. Professional sport can be won or lost in the players heads. It makes a difference.

    Going out on the pitch having lost the battle to get the game off went a long way to ensuring a negative mental attitude.
  4. Not saying it happened here, but...

    Never complain about the conditions to the players, and don't accept any complaints from them either. Leave the call to the ref.

    The weather had already beaten us before kickoff today. Dick Campbell's prematch interview alluded to what was being said, and he no doubt boosted his players morale by making the point we didn't fancy it.

    Arbroath's gameplay worked.

    Still an absolutely hideous game to watch. My retinas will suffer the scars of that for a long time.

  5. He did ok against Clyde, but in the reserve games I’ve watched he’s been nothing notable,  unlike someone like gabby McGill who looked comfortably above it, and yet when he gets first team chances struggles.  
    What has he done to show he’s better than the other youth players that have been released?  Is he better than Kerr young?  Has he done more than Ryan Thomson?   And they were guys who got significant first team football.
    The step up players need to make around 19/20 to prove their worth and make a living out the game vs playing PT at best is massive.  For every player that does make that step up 10 don’t.   I haven’t seen anything that will make him that 1.
    Aye he’ll probably be trying to get another club, probably back in the north of england .  Near certainly that it won’t be FT. 
     
    Part-time is still pro. Not sure how you have been able to see him play in anything other than the 1 game for the last year.
  6. I'm too concerned that I might miss our first league victory at Tynecastle in 30 years that I'm going to pay their Premiership PPV price (at least they don't charge us more than other visiting teams).

    Have absolutely no idea how this will pan out. Looks like Hearts got complacent last weekend and have now had the kick up the arse needed to get them in the zone. Plus looks like their marquee signing has already settled in. Revenge may also be on their mind.

    ...on the other hand we have some players that like the big occasion.

    3-0 Hearts.
