Bigbrbairn Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 No surprise. Teams heads were at Hampden and they need to realise this league is far from over. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JessieField Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 If the Queens manager got a red card last week, how come he's available in the dugout this week? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyline Drifter Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 1 hour ago, 19QOS19 said: I fully expect that to be Falkirk's stance given they're a far better side and you've watched them a lot more than me, obviously. But tbh I didn't think you were any worse today than the first game. I think MB got his tactics spot on today and contained any Falkirk threat. Morrison is a brilliant player but Hendrie had him absolutely pegged. Thoroughly deserving of his motm award. We really should have scored another couple but for me the defence gets all the plaudits. Some height in that Falkirk side and I can't recall them winning any headers from crosses/corners. Outstanding from us at the back today. The more I see Brydon the more I think a 2 year deal is an excellent piece of business. Very rare past few years I've left Palmerston with such a smile on my face. Note - Barry Cook is still fucking shite. A truly awful referee. First time I've seen us since Dunfermline game. Outstanding performance from us defensively. Appreciate Falkirk 'werent very good' but to a major extent that's because we didnt let them be. Marvin got the tactics spot on. Defence was rock solid with Logan and Hendrie providing an attacking threat on the overlap, and Wilson and Todd protecting in front. That left the other 3 to see what they could get out of the Falkirk defence with Todd joining to make it 4 when he could. Paul McKay's best game of the season. East, Logan and Hendrie all good too but Jack Brydon was head and shoulders the best player on the pitch. Won everything that went near him, composed in possession, throwing himself into blocks and for good measure a throw in that might be longer than Lyndon Dykes'. The only time Falkirk looked like scoring was from a Ruari Paton glancing header at a corner! Dabrowski did well to save that and dealt comfortably with anything else that came near him too. Although he can cut out the drag backs 30 yds from goal in the 91st minute please!!! The goal was a touch farcical but thoroughly deserved. McKechnie should have made it two early in the 2nd half but didnt lift it and Kinnear made a good block. No failures. Paton had a hard shift on his own but put the work in and had a big hand in the goal. McKechnie's pace was a threat all game. Connelly was lively. Cochrane excellent when he came on. Gibson did well too and showed maturity to run the clock down in the corner rather than try to force another. Delighted with that, particularly the defending. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Tennis Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 We were unusually good today at winning headers in our own box. It went a long way towards us never looking all that troubled. Obviously, it was never exactly relaxing, but we held out without many scares. A good result psychologically before we face Falkirk in the play-offs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

queenslad Posted March 18 Share Posted March 18 Did QOS decide to change ends at start of match today to try and change our luck - it worked? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wondered that myself when Falkirk kicked off. I thought if you didn't pick sides you got to kick off. Unless of course the ref decided what heads and tails would be. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless of course the ref decided what heads and tails would be. That used to be the case (winner of the toss picked sides, loser got kick off), now whoever wins the toss can either choose to have kick off, or switch sides. Still suggests we chose to switch, as you’d think it unlikely that Falkirk would have declined having kick off. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

19QOS19 Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 (edited) Falkirk TV highlights up. Hopefully McGlynn has a look to confirm he's talking shite. Didn't realise at the time how well worked our goal was. Another week we play the ball on the deck nicely and it results in a goal. Maybe stick with that approach rather than the long ball? Yeats doubling down on his dive as well. Claiming he was clipped at the back of his heel when there's no one behind him Edited March 19 by 19QOS19 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the dive, admittedly there were a few bodies in the way of my view, must admit though I was expecting the ref to point to the spot. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought it was a blatant dive at the time and the video confirms it. Part of me expected a penalty to be given because Barry Cook. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like Barry Cook. He's the best ref we've had all season and we've had him 3 or 4 times. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, can't really recall any blatant mistakes by the Ref yesterday, none that seriously impacted the game anyway. Surprised he's getting a bit of stick in some quarters. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
