Pete the Jakey Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 Highlights are up. 11 hours ago, NathanDrake88 said: Worst performance of the season so far, yet in an awful game of football we are technically streets ahead of RC. What a dismal club they are For a team that are technically streaks ahead of us St Mirren sure like to give the ball away a lot and have zero attacking intent. I am surprised that VAR didnt have a closer look at Gogic on Samuel towards the end. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The foul on McMenamin looked a pretty clear penalty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coventry Saint Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 County certainly edged that last night and missed a couple of big chances prior to the goal. No complaints from me, except to say that the penalty shout looked like a stick-on. But we didn't deserve the win and created absolutely f**k all. The issues causing our slump are clear: Baccus has been in and out the team, O'Hara has been poor and I'd guess is carrying an injury of some sort, and obviously we are missing Strain. But even allowing for that, we barely controlled a ball all night. Seeing Stav come on and actually bring the ball under very quickly and then move it on effectively felt like the sharpest thing we did all night. And it was nothing more than a fleeting moment of competence. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savage Henry Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 A mate in the jail end sent me a video. Unless the rules have changed or that was a free kick rather than a corner, there’s absolutely no way that goal should have stood. It’s about a foot down the line. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was there not a jailend regular old boy who’s very reason for being was to shout and point at balls out with the corner circle. I seem to recall his name was Ernie? We used to call him Mr Angry. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was never a penalty on Samuel Gogic never touched him he was cheating trying to get a pen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not convinced it was a penalty either, just surprised there wasnt a VAR check. Samuel may be many things, but he aint a cheat. They actually had a very friendly long chat at full time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I looked at the assistant at the far end of the pitch expecting him to flag, but no, even though he was clearly watching Brown. Still, I believe these rogue decisions balance themselves out over the year, don’t they? Flagging that up on VAR would just highlight the incompetence of the officials for not seeing it. It's not something I can get particularly excited about, ultimately we've still got to deal with the cross and we didn't, but it does show that sometimes VAR is so picky about things, with long delays and other times they don't seem to bother their shirt. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I seem to recall his name was Ernie? We used to call him Mr Angry. Yes there was. He got in quite a bit trouble for calling players “jungle bunnies” as I recall. Stealing yards at throw ins was another of his triggers which inevitably resulted in racial abuse. He used to get irate at corners which were perfectly legal, but this one would probably have killed him had it been a St Mirren player.

Comrie Posted November 29, 2023 Share Posted November 29, 2023 Leaving Jordan White unmarked three yards out from a corner seems a bold strategy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind you, think Collum was ref in Dingwall last season too, when in the 3-2 game we got a player absolutely wiped out in the box - and both he and VAR 'missed' it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd reckon if you asked most Saints fans to name their three best performers so far this season, Hemming would be on most of those lists. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of the reasons I spent a season or so out the Jailend in the East Stand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
