That Sons keeper can f**k off, two world-class saves that half!

Ironically the easiest thing he had to do he fumbled for the first goal too.

Brett is superb though. That save on the stroke of half-time was absolutely sensational stuff. Such a strong hand.

Granted I'm about a million yards away in the main stand, but that looked extremely soft.

Sort of, bit of play acting involved but definite pen, keeper should have been booked and the other guy should have been straight red never mind a yellow 

 

lucky for you guys Collum was a right soft touch today could have easily been down to 9 on another day

Speaking of heads being gone, the head of Aron Lynas was in space for that whole 2nd half, surprised he made it through the full 90.

Much better 2nd half, but we should've had way more goals in a game where we kinda needed way more goals if we're to progress. Thought Dumbarton looked a good team for the first half hour, though we certainly helped them play freely.

Reckon this big TV game on Sunday will be one HELL of a dead rubber.

How does one act like he's been fouled whilst also being fouled? It's either a foul or a dive, you can't have a bit of both.

If there's not enough contact to knock you over and you fall over it's a dive. Contact doesn't give players the "right to go down" despite numerous pundits saying so. 

You stated you cant have a foul and a dive at the same time.

Exhibit 1

Yes, your exhibit is a dive. 

OK, I'm going to draw a line with this conversation.

The player commits a two footed, sliding tackle that traps his opponents legs. That is a foul. The next event is a blatant dive to exaggerate the contact. Might even get your opponent a 2nd yellow/red for no real reason.

If you can't see a foul there, I advise you to apply for a Scottish refs licence. Perfect candidate.

He traps his legs does he? Is that how the guy manages to plant both his feet and propel himself into a somersault unimpeded?

😂

Behave. In all the years you've watched football, you've NEVER seen a player exaggerate a foul for effect? It's not only perfectly possible for simulation to be involved in a foul, it happens regularly.

There's no scenario where the game is an absolutely dead rubber. You may need to win very heavily but at least one of the three best 2nd place sides will get 9 points so you'll have the opportunity to be that club on Goal Difference. Groups A and C are the only ones where the runner up can still get 10 points. You may need to win by three goals more than Morton but only if Stirling Albion win outright in Perth AND Livingston beat Clyde outright and Hamilton beat Cove on pens or outright.

If Stirling don't win in 90 mins in Perth (or Cove beat Accies) then you can either win by 3 more than Morton or 1 more than Raith.
