Insert Amusing Pseudonym Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 Since the compliance officer seemingly forgot about diving after Jamie Walker got banned for a dive against Celtic I'll presume Ferguson will get away with his cheating, but good to see it go unrewarded during the game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard Neilson’s after match interview in the car, and boy, was that a bitter and twisted interview from a manager who had comfortably won a match 2-0. There was definitely a touch on Ferguson in the box, but like the United guy on Saturday, he embellished it a tad. At the time, because it was at the other end, I had no idea what Gallagher’s goal was disallowed for, and having watched it now I still have no idea what it was disallowed for. Strange that Neilson didn’t mention that incident. I take it that Neilson has been taking lessons on how to celebrate a win against Aberdeen from the Livi fans on P&B. Ferguson definitely gets caught, I’m actually surprised it was given as it looks like a dive because he delays going down half a second. He obviously does go down himself but he was caught, no doubt about it. on the commentary they mentioned our goal might have been disallowed for offside but don’t really get that either. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle Reese Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 (edited) Hearts were in complete control of that game. I was surprised by how much, after the last time we played them. A far more one sided contest than I expected. Referee was hopeless. Aberdeen are just nine points above the play off spot, and unless Goodwin suddenly finds something to turn their awful form/performances around, I think they will finish 11th.

I completely agree with you, so why was your manager concentrating on asking the authorities to go after one of the opposition players who had his foot kicked in the box, rather than praising his players for their domination of the game in his after match interview? Strange behaviour. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topcat(The most tip top) Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 When Aberdeen’s board claimed they could ignore the Covid screening rules because they were no longer the kind of team that gets five figure crowds I thought they were being less than honestBut on that form I can see why that might have happened. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange behaviour. Ferguson dived though. If there was any contact (I’m far from convinced there was) then it wasn’t enough to cause him to throw himself to the ground with his limbs outstretched. We have just come out of a poor run ourselves and we were dominating that game through quick attacking football. Ferguson diving to cheat a penalty could have swung the game in Aberdeen’s favour. Bear in mind Neilson was a rightback by trade, he will have been in the receiving end of those sort of decisions plenty times. I don’t blame him for being angry about it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All a bit unnecessary really. Bottom line is we took a doing last night and we should rightly be embarrassed. FWIW hearts were probably better than I’d previously given them credit for this season, Kingsley in particular is better than this level. Doesn’t change the fact we were hopelessly bad 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jute Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 Going to go against fellow Dons fans here and admit Ferguson dived for the penalty. There was contact but it was clearly not enough to bring him down so he threw himself to the ground and that’s a dive as far as I am concerned. It was the same with United’s penalty on Saturday. Player clearly exaggerated the contact. We did however get a perfectly good goal chopped off. As others have said could not see at the game why it was ruled out and am none the wiser after seeing the highlights. We were rotten and got exactly what we deserved from the game last night. The Glass experiment has set us back a fair way. If it were not for Dundee and St Johnstone being so pish I would have us as nailed on for relegation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
