Salvo Montalbano Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 I'm not convinced that was a foul, but surely once he gives it then it's a red card? Looked like a goalscoring opportunity from here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jan Vojáček Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 I'm not convinced that was a foul, but surely once he gives it then it's a red card? Looked like a goalscoring opportunity from here. It's only if he makes no attempt for the ball that it's a red. E.g. grabbing his shirt, just punting him up into the air etc.Given he went for the ball, and given McManus appeared to stumble himself it was probably the correct decision.

DAFC. Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Surely it's a sending off? Looked a foul to me tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Salvo Montalbano Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Did he go for the ball though? Ball wasn't really close and the legs tangled. Like I say, I'm not 100% sure it was even a foul but of he thinks it is then it's hard to argue against showing the red. Same thing happened a week or so back in the Challenge Cup v Arbroath.

Jan Vojáček Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Aside from our hilarious defending, that was a lovely counter attack. Absolutely perfect execution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan Vojáček Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 I'm not sure that's the worst 45 minutes under Stevie Aitken...but it is up there. We're a shambles at the back, but I don't totally blame the defence. They have little protection and have no options at all when they get possession.Hutton and Carswell together should never happen. Carswell is a vastly superior player, and should start with someone mildly attacking. Hutton looks like the player St Mirren fans told us we were getting. Waste of a shirt. Walsh looks a shadow of the player we had in pre-season, Roy is seriously naive defensively and bringing Div on for Handling reeks of negativity. Get Johnston or SeaGal on before him.Up top the Prince is getting no support and is brutally isolated. Barry Cook is also remarkably bad. He's rivaled us for horrendousness.

Black and White Tragic Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 If scores remain as they are Pars go top and Falkirk bottom. As that TV chef says, "It doesn't get better than that". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BallochSonsFan Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 We're badly exposed today.First couple of minutes we looked up for this. Great ball down the wing for Roy to run onto and a good pass to Walsh out wide.The opening goal. Keeper is a liability. Should still have been able to clear it at 2 attempts even if we put it out.2nd Pars goal was a really nice counter.We're not coping with the movement of Dunfermline at all. Everything is done at pace. Everybody is looking to run into space.We're not closing them down. We're sitting back and inviting them to attack us. We can't win the ball or get any kind of positive possession.Dowie should maybe have walked. Goal scoring chance as he's stopping the guy going clear through on goal. Clumsy attempt to muscle in and win the ball. If he doesn't get any of the ball and doesn't bring down the attacker then he's 1 on 1.Handling injury is a blow. Other than the movement of Ally Roy we have nothing. Nade is being played out the game today. Walsh is doing nothing. Carswell had 2 chances of bringing the ball under control on the edge of the box and couldn't. Hutton is doing nothing.It's sore to watch today. Pars look like they could take as many as they want if they really fancied hurting us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lorenzo71 Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 New striker absolutely vital.Handling probably will be out for a bit.nothing going forward and if nade gets injured we will be 4-6-0.Someone new NOW. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moonster Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 We don't have any footballers here and none of them are working like their life depended on it to win. Heads down all over the pitch because we know we're out our depth. IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salvo Montalbano Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Should have been a penalty there tbf. It's like last week all over again, get 2-0 up then fanny about at the back and give the opposition a chance to get back into things. We can't keep getting away with this.
