QOSQOS Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Looking forward to highlights. Still haven’t seen the penalty (and save) which I am hoping will be in highlights. Also missed the goal, although I saw it briefly in the package at the end. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluenortherner Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Apart from the first 20 minutes, I also missed the last 20 because my screen showed that there were technical issues, so I never bothered refreshing it. I certainly won't be asking for a refund though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HoBNob Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Oaft, some levels of cheating from the Queens player there, shame you can't appeal second yellow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnotherEdinburghDoonhamer Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Regarding the Mayo sending off, to be fair, I still don't see the contact, but it looked like Dapo was by Mayo, so why would he fall. If he was cheating then you have to remember what club he is on loan from............. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
die hard doonhamer Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Well, we can have no complaints about the penalty award. It was a piss poor effort though, really really bad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Tennis Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 About as clear a penalty as you'll see. Fortunately though, it was also about as easy a penalty save as you'll see. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No idea, as shown by the highlights he throws himself to the ground without any contact. With Murray not being risked yesterday due to the surface it throws allot of questions up for the Friday night Derby. Cheating wee dick. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted February 28, 2021 Share Posted February 28, 2021 Oaft, some levels of cheating from the Queens player there, shame you can't appeal second yellow. If by 'going down when he could have stayed on his feet' then I agree. If by 'felt contact so he's "entitled" to go down' then I disagree. FWIW I think both are a form of cheating but the latter seems to be part and parcel of football nowadays and the latter is certainly what happened there. I've watched it back a few times and the defender tugs him. Not enough to warrant Dapo's reaction but it's a tug and gives the ref a decision to make. The fact his only complaint is with the booking (as he feels there is cover) rather than the foul itself is pretty damning evidence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Priti priti priti Patel Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 (edited) Just found these interviews with both managers (Dunfermline fans will have seen them as it's your OS). Interesting Crawford says he has no complaints about the second yellow (I also can't see why Dapo goes down) so maybe it looked different from that side of the park. https://www.dafc.co.uk/story.php?t=Managers_Post_Queen_of_the_South&ID=12944 Edited March 1, 2021 by Margaret Thatcher Forgot the link 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Are there seriously still folk who genuinely have to ask why a player would dive? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The damming evidence comes from watching the highlights at 0.25 speed, the queen's players legs somehow seem to just stop supporting his weight. There's not a tug, there's a brief touching of hands, what's not enough contact to warrant someone's legs to just stop working. 26 minutes ago, Margaret Thatcher said: Just found these interviews with both managers (Dunfermline fans will have seen them as it's your OS).

With the benefits of highlights though that's what it is. Dapo goes down because its in the late stages of the game, keeping the ball in the corner and wasting more time with a free kick is a great outcome. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are they not the same thing?I've already had a heads gone about this in the past and yes they are the same thing. The problem is the latter example appears to be acceptable in the modern game and it's the bullshit 'he felt contact so he's entitled to go down' line we hear all the time by pundits. To me it equates to diving but referees give it 9 times out of 10. It's exactly what happened here. Hey, it's a good dive. With the benefits of highlights though that's what it is. Dapo goes down because its in the late stages of the game, keeping the ball in the corner and wasting more time with a free kick is a great outcome. See above. I'm not arguing that he's hit the deck needlessly but the fact of the matter is it's one of those that more often than not result in the defender being penalised. To me it looks like the defender uses his right arm to pull on Dapo. Is it enough to result in him going down so spectacularly? Absolutely not. Are those types of incidents given almost every week? Yes. If there was absolutely no contact do you seriously believe the defender wouldn't have been going apeshit with the officials and Dapo? He walks away conceding the FK happily so he's clearly made contact with him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoBNob Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 He's clearly not, as the visual evidence shows in the highlight, the fact that Mayo isn't going off his rocket, in the final stages in the game at the ref which would in turn waste more time isn't an indication that he's pulled him down. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's no way from that video you can say with certainty that his right arm hasn't grabbed him. I'm assuming that's what's happened as it's hidden from us, the officials would have a better view, the player doesn't complain and neither does your manager. Your argument about wasting time doesn't hold up when you factor in he complained after getting booked. And again, not complaining about the foul, more that there was cover and the booking wasn't necessary. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DA Baracus Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 Not all players react the same way to things, so unsure why folk still insist they do and that how they act is definitive proof of something. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
