houston_bud Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 I thought at the time that was a penalty. I've since been corrected on here that if there's no contact it should be an indirect free kick. It's safe to say that McGregor's boot didn't make contact with Jackson's head, impossible to say from that photo that there was no contact at all though. How on earth is it not at the very least an indirect free kick? What was McLean watching? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

btb Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Out-thunk by Eddie May! Even in the shallow pool that is Scottish football Eddie May is recognised as a bottom feeder yet today he out-thunk (and yes I know it's a spelling mistake) OK. We went in at H/T deservedly 1-0 up but after May brought on his first sub Hibs won just about every midfield tussle and after a couple of warnings equalised, then 10 minutes later took the lead with our manager unable to do anything to save the game and 3 vital points slipping away from us. The third goal close to time for Hibs when we were chasing the game was pretty much a formality. No subs for Saints today and in the end a well deserved defeat - can either Accies or Dundee outperform us in the race to finish bottom? . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s similar to overhead kicks - very rarely punished but can often be dangerous if someone’s head is in the vicinity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stonewall penalty ........McLean is an absolute joke of a ref.......major feck ups match after match However the BBC Scotland report thinks getting yer head kicked off is putting someone under pressure "Marciano denied Stephen McGinn and McGregor cleared the rebound under pressure from Jackson, before Hibs compounded St Mirren's frustration" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Empty It Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 To be fair St Mirren absolutely chucked it with the chances they had. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we deserved at least a draw; and if we had scored from either of the two fabulous chances at 1-0 I think we'd have won it. Even after we went 2-1 down we created a couple of good chances, should probably have had a penalty, and eventually got caught by a sucker punch after Erahon played a slack pass as we were trying to force things. Plenty of positive signs for us today, despite the defeat, and I hope the management and players aren't as defeatist as some of our fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not defeatist, I just don't think we can give away goals as cheaply as we did today and claim to have deserved anything. From the new players McAllister and Lyons had encouraging performances. Dreyer looked ok and was unlucky he didn't see more of the ball. I thought Tansey looked well off the pace, that will improve with games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stu Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 We threw that away. We were reasonably comfortable at 1-0 and if McAllister scores it's probably game over. I can only assume he was trying to get it onto his left foot but he should just have shot - couldn't have been much worse than the end result.

Also, was the penalty people are talking about here during the stramash in the box at 2-1? If so, it shouldn't matter because we absolutely should have scored there as well. We butchered a lot of chances today, not just misses or saves, but simple overlaps where we took the wrong option, too many bad decisions. Considering our front 4 haven't played together much I'm choosing to hope this will get better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BawWatchin Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 Never mind the part where the St Mirren keeper scooped the ball up from a blatant pass back. These decisions even themselves out over the course of 90 minutes while the quality wins over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crawford Bridge Posted January 27, 2019 Share Posted January 27, 2019 A penalty can't be awarded for dangerous play without contact. It should have been an indirect free-kick. It's not difficult to grasp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looked at the goalkeeper before knocking it back to make sure it was directly to him. Goalkeeper doesn't pick it up right away as he knows it's a pass back, but panics and picks it up when the Hibs player runs in on him. But yeah, never in a million years. But perhaps this year, this day, during the time of the match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sergie's no1 fan Posted January 28, 2019 Share Posted January 28, 2019 That was never a pass back... behave yourself!Dunno I don't think we could have complained if it was given. Keeper knew he was taking a risk because he didnt pick it up straight away.As for the game first half we were brilliant and Hibs were poor. 2nd half Hibs changed their shape and looked much better when Shaw came on. They were clinical whilst we forced their keeper into 2 great saves and McAllister should have done better with the 'empty goal'.Lyon's looks a live wire, superb assist for Jackson who was unplayable in the first half.
