WattersIsGod Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 The early spartans goal that half really seemed to rattle Dumbarton. . Should have been playing against ten men by then. Going to be a tense one on Friday night 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looked from the one view I got of it that a Spartans player tackled someone chest height. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarko_son Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 The officiating in that game was hopeless, bad enough when it comes to missing stamps and stuff like that but it felt like every throw-in/corner was an absolute lottery as well. Neither linesman ever seemed to actually want to make a decision either. No idea about the penalty or if we were offside for our disallowed one. The first goal, what an assist by Lennon... Ok aye, the keepers made a complete arse of it but Wallace has followed it in. Lovely play by Ruth for the second. As fifesons said it's a bit of an odd one, should feel a lot happier after a win but we've got an advantage for Friday and that's the main thing really 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, the second half we stopped playing but we have a lead and if we can start well on Friday we can kill the tie. I hope we sink these dirty rats. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silverton End Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 Sonko should have been sent off, Spartans could have had a penalty though. We looked tired after about 60-odd minutes, we'll need to be at our best on Friday, it should be a cracking game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sparticus Posted May 14 Author Share Posted May 14 Spartans probably the better team overall here despite Dumbartons freak opener. Looking forward to Friday, should be a cracker. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re right, and I’d have absolutely taken any kind of a lead beforehand, but it feels like a loss to me, bizarrely. Which I completely admit is wild! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to Friday, should be a cracker. Really? Other than hitting the bar, Spartans didn't test our 'keeper in the 2nd half. There is nothing between the 2 sides at all. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't blame him, Spartans were there for the taking tonight. At least we're a goal up though, but Farrell needs to throw a bit of caution to the wind some time & introduce some energy later in a match. We have some good young players, albeit on loan, Newbury, Lennon & Hogarth were good tonight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FifeSons Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 I suppose the fact they should’ve had a penalty and hit the bar when they really had to score maybe evens it out a bit. Just very rough that he doesn’t get sent off for that and then goes and scores. I’d like to see the offside call again. We were also unlucky to have one cleared off the line first half. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FifeSons Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 Div Wilson MUST NOT start on Saturday. Thought Lennon had some great deliveries. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squeezebox-son Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 I'm trying to figure out if it's coincidence that we didn't get going in the 2nd half. Similarly to Stirling in the first leg, it seemed far too much like we took our foot off the gas. I appreciate that they have come out all guns blazing but we seemed to sit back and lost all the threat that we had in the first half (again, similar to the semi first leg). Ruth was isolated and suddenly Carlo was pinned back and Kalvin couldn't get past the full back - despite comfortably have his number in the first half. Brett kinda suggested that too when asked at half time about what the gaffer would say. Along the lines of, "Don't lose an early goal (lol) and gradually work our way back into it over the first 15 mins of the 2nd half". Why can't we come out and just continue the way we ended the first half? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cedrick1 Posted May 14 Share Posted May 14 Thought overall we just about deserved it. After first 20 mins of second we settled down again super performance from new berry. Easily mom 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually thought Carlo was uncharacteristically poor tonight! He completely gave up for the one they hit the bar from. He obviously starts, though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
