Scrapping for their lives and that’s why they are where they are. Nothing but respect from me, niggly as f**k and taken points off us twice in a row and scored 4 goals in the process. 

Nothing but contempt from me

Bad I take it?

Hamstring. Held the back of his leg as soon as he scored. Tried to come back on but went down 30 seconds later.

Absolutely. Big Rossco played at CH for Alloa a couple times in emergencies I think. I’d take 0-0 right now next week. Although 6-6 would be fine too for the tonne! 🤣

Just the once IIRC. Second leg of the playoff semi against Accies last year and only in the second half. He was on the right of three centre backs - did OK and I don't think he'd let you down if asked to play there, although I'm sure he won't.

Thank the ref. What was that second pen for? 

No-one knows for certain. The only thing I could see is that after an Annan player hit a shot, his leg came into contact with Finn's boot as he challenged. You can see the ball behind the number fours leg so Finn was literally a thousandth of a second too late with the challenge and the ball was there to be won. I showed him the pic on the bus home afterwards and he was bemused at the award as the ball had gone.

Should have been well out of sight in that game. Thought Mackie was great again and I would have kept Nesbitt on if he was up to it.  I though Bisland was having one of his best games for us before being flung into an unfamiliar position.  First time I've seen Goss and he is a real freak of nature, no idea if he can play football or not.

Is the ball being gone relevant? He's maybe unlucky but you can't really argue that's a dangerous looking challenge, surely?

Bunch of miserable b*****ds for still being unbeaten 🤣

Think what you are reading is pure frustration at the fact we completely outplayed a one dimensional part time outfit for the vast majority of the game but dropped two points as the result of Dross’s diving, refereeing incompetence & not being clinical in the box. Hopefully you return to your rightful division & Stirling turn you over next week……..nothing personal.

Isn't the ball being gone a marker of a late challenge, ie a foul?

Can only assume @Bainsfordbairn has phrased that really badly. Still photos rarely tell you much but on the face of it the photo looks like a penalty and his post about being "fractions late" and the "ball had gone" sounds as clear a description of a penalty as there is. Something lost in translation perhaps. I'll wait for the footage.

You're only unbeaten thanks to refereeing incompetence at Meadowbank.

Nothing personal.

No, I've phrased it in such a way that it can't cause offence to any players or club officials, all of whom I know personally, rather than suggesting they may have been at fault. Professional football people can sometimes be incredibly sensitive to what they perceive as criticism, as anyone who dealt with a certain odious creature who used to manage us will testify. I don't think Finn is like that but I'm not taking chances. 

While still putting out the picture that I think explains the decision.

I get Bisland hasn't played consistently and he was in a different position for a lot of the game today, however he was at fault a number of times and he hasn't looked nowhere near the level of this team I think any time I've seen him play for us.

Lets face it - last 2 games against them ,a team fighting relegation from League 1 (Annan) YOU could not beat them.

Mibs you're NOT the great shakes you think you are.

Can you handle the likes of Morton etc. ?

Championship is different gravy.
