Arch Stanton Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 That was our biggest ever win away to DU, eclipsing the 4-1 in 88/89. Our biggest away win in the top division since beating Kilmarnock 6-1 i n 80/81 DU's biggest win in Paisley was 4-1 in the Scottish Cup in 84/85. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the pens would have been wasted if they were awarded to United. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pozbaird Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Not long finished watching BBC Teuchter ‘as live’. Disappointed. I wanted a negative shitfest and a heartbreaking last-minute 1-0 loss to a deflection off Shankland’s arse. Get it sorted Goodwin. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could have jumped with his arms behind him, but he decided not to an that always ran the risk of falling foul to a handball. First is soft but he gives ref a decision to be made by putting his hands on his back. Second I'm not even sure it hits his arm. Never mind, we'll take the luck having been denied a penalty on Sunday. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are spot on correct my friend, however methinks it is more about team confidence and giving our supporters back something after Sunday, what you need to remember is .............similar to the the Scottish national team, St Mirren are equally good at dragging defeat from the jaws of victory.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billyg Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Absolutely no surprise to hear Connolly was pish. He was awful against us in the play-off game a couple of years ago, to the extent I assumed he was mid 30s and at the end of his career, not late 20s! Fantastic result for us tonight 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Derry Alli Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 (edited) Second penalty award is a stonewaller. Stupidity to attempt to black a shot like that. Don't really see enough angles on the first. ETA : St Mirren's fourth is really, really poor defensively from United. Smith isn't anywhere near good enough.

pozbaird Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 I posted a couple of weeks or so ago that this season, St Mirren (so far!) cannot complain about refereeing decisions in general, going our way. I wonder how much of this is actually down to games being played in empty stadiums. At a home game against the Sevco AllStar Franchise Select, there was an incident where Ryan Kent went down at the corner of the box. Was it the game where the referee injured himself pre-match? I’m convinced, with the stand behind that goal screaming, the referee gives a penalty. Last night, when Tait made a sliding tackle, again, with 5,000 Arabs as one screaming ‘penalty’, does the referee give that as a penalty? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think in general you've got a point, but I don't think even Dallas would have given Rangers a tackle for that tackle of Tait's. Well, maybe I've taken that a little too far, but it was a fabulous tackle where he only got the ball, and none of the man, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lex Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 Yeah I think they’re both penalties. First one is completely bizarre stuff from Connolly, a needless two hand push on the back.Second one he raises his hand infront of his chest and the ball hits his hand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he thought Beaton was going to try and win the game for United like the playoff final. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sergie's no1 fan Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 That's ignoring the first debatable penalty shout we had. Couldn't see if it hit the defenders hand because the camera was facing the United players back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shuggie_Murray7 Posted January 28, 2021 Share Posted January 28, 2021 The second pen is as clear cut as you'll see under the current rules. Now, the rule is absolutely stinking, but it's a nailed on penalty every day of the week. Penalties have been given week-in and week-out all season long. The first one is very soft. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
