Thought our header before the goal should have gone out the box but appreciate our player was under pressure to play it quickly. Hibs paid us a lot of respect in the second half with their change to three at the back, time wasting at substitutions, niggly fouls and running the ball to the corner flag. Harvie and Stirling covered Humphreys very well today, he was quiet and one of my biggest fears going into the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

squeezeboxson Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 As good as the Hibs boys are, Lennon and the guys in the dugout are arseholes. What was the deal at the substitution? The ref just let them take the piss and I thought he should have added on another 2 or 3 mins at the end with all the time wasting in the second half too.

Andy Stirling was outstanding today, surging runs. We have options now, good to see plenty of desire & commitment from Sons today. If only big Thomson could put the ball in the net.

sonsism Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Vaughan was a real live wire today and I am still in disbelief we were able to punt Stevo and get him in. Thought we were poor compared to recent performances in the first half but definitely back to our best in the second half. I can't really remember Carswell doing anything that stood out which means he's done his job well today. Other results weren't looking in our favour at one point today with Ayr, Queens and Dunfermline all leading but thankfully those 3 matches ending in draws has kept us pretty close to the pack. It was lovely to see many of Guido's family at the game today. I hope they all had a great day out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 The Nade 'chance' was actually offside. Linesman had his flag up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike rankine Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Whoever was picking MotM today had a tough task. Could have justifiably given it to 8 or 9 of the team. Sparky is playing with incredible confidence and skill at the moment. Carswell had a great debut. Fleming worked his socks off. The back four were solid. On balance I can agree with Vaughan as the star man[emoji106] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mike rankine Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 I was listening in to Radio Scotland during the game. Chick Young is an embarrassment. Was continually saying Hibs were the best team and only began to give us credit towards the end when we had constant pressure with Hibs time wasting. In the post match summary Dumbarton were described as "stuffy opponents". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The likes of Vaughan and Carswell came in today and looked far comfortable at this level than he does.I just feel like we have better options now with Vaughan and Nade, particularly when he's deployed up front.

Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Chick Young is an utter minter and absolutely terrible at his job. A classic case of Scottish footballing dinosaur who should be as far away from our game as possible, including reporting games on the radio.

O'Kelly Isley III Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Now, here's the thing. We could have replicated the results of the last two weeks earlier this season, but it would have been utterly grim to watch, massing men behind the ball and basically choking the game. Against Morton and Hibs however, not only have we competed fully, we've also controlled sizeable passages of the play and have contributed to two pretty entertaining matches, albeit we taken zippo points for all that effort. Not only do we look to have more about us, every man is putting in a shift and we enter the second half of the season with a better-looking squad. The trick is now to convert that positivity into league points, starting next week against Queens. And anyone not there today please, please, ignore this utter bullshit about tricky conditions, bobbly pitches, etc., as it is guff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of his gems were "I can't even remember the name of this stadium or stand - as that's all it is". When announcing the teams at the start he threw away convention and ran through the away team first. He said that Eddie the Eagle could slide down the slope from the corner flag to the goal. Fanny.

mike rankine Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 Yep...I heard him going on and on about the raised area at the corner flag pre-match. At one point he said it must be at least 2 or 3 feet higher than the rest of the pitch. Willie Miller had the sense to call him out for his tendency to exaggerate.

Bring Back Paddy Flannery Posted January 14, 2017 Share Posted January 14, 2017 He scoffs at clubs like ourselves, yet claims to be a St Mirren supporter. We all know he's secretly a ***, but still, the way he goes on you'd think he was a Barcelona fan.The worst part is, we pay that c***s wages.

I was flabbergasted when he mentioned that he doesn't know the name of the stadium considering there's a sign at the front door he would've entered and also on the teamsheet. I can't stand these patronising b*****ds that won't bother doing even a bit of research. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
