DukDukGoose Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 A strong referee is required next week. We'll obviously be able to actually play the game of football on the pitch next week but so will they. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrewDon Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 Absolutely fine with that result in the circumstances. McLennan made a difference in the second half. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lubo_blaha Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 Still in the tie. Definitely capable of taking these b*****ds at home. You just know they’re going to sh*tfest it from minute one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Bob Mahelp Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 Well. That was hard work.....and that was just watching it. A hard game against a decent side, in 30 degree heat, in Asia, on a mud field, with a 5 hour flight home. Hearts at Tynecastle next...what can go wrong ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meanmistermustard Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 (edited) Got to take that considering how shite the pitch is and believe that there is a good chance of getting thru at a full Pittodrie. Rest everyone v Hearts playing as many second and third choices as possible. Edited August 19, 2021 by meanmistermustard 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dons_1988 Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 It’s definitely there for us but we’ve been here before and been guilty of naivety chasing the game. They look reasonably solid defensively so they’ll fancy themselves to pick us off if we get carried away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's next week he will be more of a miss. Fair point, and doubtless he would have been injured tonight if he wasn't at the weekend. What a bunch if cnuts, with a ref to suit. Can't wait for next week! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tarapoa Posted August 19, 2021 Author Share Posted August 19, 2021 Seen nothing from this lot to suggest we can’t beat them comfortably next week. (If we can keep at 1-0)Unfortunately their away record in recent years looks better than their home form.Why did Gallagher even put himself in a position to get booked if things were that precarious? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Game of throw-ins Posted August 19, 2021 Share Posted August 19, 2021 Hard to judge any team on that surface but big plus from that for me was that Qarabag look a much weaker side than I expected from their pedigree. They look technically decent but lacking in confidence/belief. I'd say the tie is about 50/50 and that's a better chance than I would have given us at the start of the game. One thing Glass needs to focus on though is why we're coming off second best in the street-wise/physical side of things game after game. I didn't see the Raith game but every other game this season we've been bullied a bit physically and our opponents have been better at working the ref. Brown is the glaring exception but we can't leave that side of the game to one player. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were casually playing the ball half a yard above the turf to their players feet whilst ours were playing it on the plough field and wondering why it wasn't reaching the target. We've obviously got a chance but they were the better team tonight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The number of tackles, especially on Ferguson, that deserved a yellow....the ref was so keen to book us, less so them. Happy with the result. Sets it up nicely for next week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was he definitely booked? I know rob McLean said so but tbh I don’t think they knew what was going on. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
