Guest Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 I'm inclined to disagree re: Milliken. I was standing as close as i could be to it, he was looking for it as soon as he passed the defender. If he'd stayed up he'd have been clean through. It was as big a stone waller as I've seen, the hand ball also as for me it was hand to ball. However, that said I have absolutely no complaints as the Glens played well and Talbot never turned up. Best team won by a mile! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 13, 2014 Share Posted October 13, 2014 You forgot the size of the crowd.... Very good crowd size wise, but the atmosphere was subdued I thought, barring a dozen young Glens fans singing it was very quiet, quite strange!

I was standing as close as i could be to it, he was looking for it as soon as he passed the defender. If he'd stayed up he'd have been clean through. Got to agree. Very comfortable win and I was standing right behind goal and had great view of incident. Wasn't a pen for me. Ref got it correct.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dipple burn Posted October 13, 2014 Author Share Posted October 13, 2014 The goalie was standing six yards from it and said it was a penalty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFW Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 The referee was obviously very aware that we get dubious penalties by conning the officials every week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larky55 Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Both incidents were clear cut penalties. In my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harry Beaver Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 It looked a stone waller from where I was standing but the ref seen it differently and he's the only one who mattered he didn't give it. All the arguing on here about it matters not a jot and is deflecting from the thrashing Talbot received from a much better team, Talbot have a lot more to worry about than a penalty decision that went against them.

glenmuir Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Great to see Tucker shaking all the Glens management and players hands at full time pure class unlike the H££££££d manager who would probably have been wanting a square go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shuggie_Murray7 Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 I was down in Troon for the weekend and decided to take in a game. Talbot were gash. Glens were pretty good. No penalty for the hand ball. Absolute clear cut, stonewaller for the one on Milliken. The boy Gornley is a moaning faced b*****d. From the first whistle all he did was moan. Also, absolute sitter from the boy Connolly for Glens when he smashed it off the bar in the first half. All in all I enjoyed it and thought Glens were well worth their win and to be honest I probably should have been more than 2-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr V Posted October 16, 2014 Share Posted October 16, 2014 As Dipple quite rightly said had we got the two penalties and scored from them it would have been a travesty of justice, we were quite simply outplayed because we had no real game plan and no plan "B" Glens were a pleasure to watch today, their movement on and off the ball was excellent and at times they went through our defence like a knife through hot butter. What we really needed today was a holding midfielder (at least) who could put his foot on the ball and take the speed and sting out of the game. Instead we played the long ball down the channels time after time, and then promptly lost possession and it started all over again. It's really difficult to put a finger on what's gone wrong, but there's tired legs and a distinct lack of confidence at the moment. With 18 league games to go it could be a major issue if not addressed quickly, but have seen Tucker get it right time after time before so am confident he'll do it again. Still the benchmark Junior club. Success in the juniors comes at a price. Succesfull teams have virtually at 11 month season with pre season training included and players get stale. Also when you have a good team it is difficult to recruit better players who can break into a successful team. Talbot have managed this pretty well over the years but sometimes you have a poor(er) season that makes the changes you need to make easier. I know last year was the case that for us last season (though most teams would take winning a trophy as a good year) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TFW Posted October 17, 2014 Share Posted October 17, 2014 Isabel reckons you've missed a nought off the end. Thought myself it might have been three or four hundred more, bu it could be misleading because the crowd's right on top of you at Troon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
