Thought we deserved to go through there. I’d hardly say we dominated, but it felt like we were on top a lot more than we weren’t. With Sneddon’s incredible save from Wighton, and Hamilton’s sitter right at the end of Extra Time, that can be filed under ‘on another day..’
Thistle didn’t offer too much throughout the game, but have one or two players capable of changing things in a flash. Good strike from Fitzpatrick and Tiffoney is always capable of causing problems. Turner was faultless all day, letting him go is one of the biggest wastes of talent we’ve experienced in some time and that’s a hill I’m ready to die on. Imagine how effective he’d be in our team just now.
The penalty is actually a very good decision by the ref. I had no idea what it was given for until watching the highlights but it’s a stupid decision from Muirhead and a good one (albeit pretty easy tbh) from the ref.
A lot of encouraging signs from us, if not a lesson in being a bit more clinical when you only get a handful of chances.
Baffled at Edwards’ yellow for taking too long to take the throw-in in extra time. How can it be time wasting when the reason you didn’t take the throw is because your teammate is being manhandled?
