HarleyQuinn Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Huge win for us today. Only takes a couple of wins on the bounce to haul you up the table. Jenks took his goal very well. First time all season we've had a break (handball incident). 3 wins on the bounce and our second away victory of the season. It's getting better. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your chairman wasn't lying though, your underlying numbers always had you picking up form and finishing top half. Us and Livingston have comfortably been the worst sides in the league so far, and our lack of goals absolutely stinks of relegation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A manager who's terrified of trying to win a game, a rotten squad full of players knowing they're away in the Summer, and a game plan that's been sussed for months but never changes. Today probably our best performance in months and we couldn't muster a decent chance and shouldve lost by a couple really, Clark made at least one great save in the first half. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EdinburghLivi Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Brutal call from the worst referee in Scotland. I was hesitant to VAR but it can not come soon enough when you have clowns like him making wrong decisions again and again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see how the ref can be blamed for that, he's clearly unsighted with several players in the way. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On second viewing you're probably right but I maintain my general opinion re Aitken. Terrible referee. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williemillersmoustache Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 Not sure Jenks knew anything about it as it was headed on to him by a Saints player, so not a formal hand ball but more of an impromptu ball-hand gathering where I can assure you, all the rules were complied with at all times. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't disagree but also can't help but think that is the sort of break we haven't enjoyed all season so long overdue 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigkillie Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 It's his job to be in the best position as much as he can but it is literally not possible to always be able to see every incident given how quickly the ball moves and how many players are on the park. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted December 11, 2021 Share Posted December 11, 2021 The ref was shite but the goal wasn't his fault as he quite clearly can't see it. The East Stand linesman could but he constantly cowered at the thought of giving any decision so you've no luck there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
