CallumPar Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 That’s been coming all game. Horrible challenge. 2 match ban not enough for that. Ryan lucky not to have a broken leg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EdinburghLivi Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Good point by the sounds of things. Makes the draw in August a bit easier to take. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CallumPar Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Johnston showing a real lack of ambition. Livi were backs to the wall after the red card, and he didn’t change things at all. Left exhausted players out there. Stuck with 4 at the back, against a team playing 6 at the back. We should have won that, but in reality, rarely troubled Livi.

Referee couldn’t wait to get the red out, was desperate to make it about him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was ridiculously late as well. Shocker of a challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoBNob Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 The only plus point from this game is that we're one game closer to the end of AJ, that was a lesson in how not to play against ten men. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s actually slipped before getting there and Ryan has actually ran into him. Its a yellow card. Anyway the game itself was really poor from both teams but dunfermline will be the far more disappointed after being the better team today. We didn’t come anywhere near the levels of last week and we’ve done really well to get a point from that. Very pleased with the effort and application but we didn’t play enough today, we made it far too easy for Dunfermline defensively and at no time did I feel we would score. Mots a good point and that’s 4 points from these two game which is a good return. St Mirren next week is a free game as far as I’m concerned, go and give it our best shot.

Afro Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Personally thought the Thompson incident was borderline yellow/red, certainly the referee was convinced it was a red given he was straight over. Thought the officials were pish for both sides, still a bit stunned that Dunfermline weren’t shown a red in the first half. Would’ve taken a draw before the game and given we’ve ended the game with a midfield three of De Vita, Pittman and Robinson, I’ll take it. Think Dunfermline could be playing until next Saturday and still wouldn’t score - Alexander wasn’t really troubled I thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s actually slipped before getting there and Ryan has actually ran into him. Its a yellow card. You’re allowed to make a challenge at speed, yes. Are you allowed to go in, out of control, at knee height? No. He may have slipped, but I didn’t see a slip. All you could see from behind the challenge, including the referee’s view, is the boy going flying in at knee height, nowhere near the ball. I also don’t think ‘slipping’ justifies taking a player out, just below the knee. He should have pulled out of the challenge, rather than extending his leg, if he slipped. I really can’t believe, in the 21st century, we have fans trying to defend a knee high challenge. Worth noting that a few neutrals came to the game with me, and all commented that it was a shocking challenge. I’ll watch the highlights, and if it looks like he tried to pull out, I’ll accept my view was incorrect. But from my view at the game, it was a red card all day long.

LiviLion Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Not even bothered about the result but seething (if someone finds a head, please return it) at the refereeing. He couldn't wait to get that red card out and was the kind of ref to give a foul if there was any noise about it, which worked well with the Pars fans screaming after every touch of the ball. ^^^ seething, heads gone etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoBNob Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Thought the referee was probably one of the best I've seen this season, Lee Miller should have been booked and the LWB for Livi should have been booked for the pull back on Williamson, however he done it so far away from the ball you can't blame the ref for not seeing. Good game though where he got most of the major decisions correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Listening to Tam McManus on Open All Mics and he said it was an easy red card call for the ref. Would rather believe the unbiased view of a former Pars striker over these angry Livi fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utterly bemused to find people complaining about the referee here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
