ayrmad Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 6 hours ago, Iain said: Not sure I'd describe the Ayr penalty as 'ridiculous'. From the highlights it looks like whoever plays the ball first will get the decision, but it's a close call and you don't see it clearly. Might be right, might be wrong, but if the ref's made a mistake it's an understandable one. At the other end, it looked to me like McLaughlin did himself out of a penalty with the flourish as he went to ground. Doubt either decision affected the outcome. If you were standing where I was standing you would, the lino had the same view and shat it IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vodka Vic Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Good highlights package. Thought Ayr were strong in all departments from keeper to upfront, very quick on the break and this won't be the only hiding they dish out this season. Honestly didn't think Alan Reid's tackle on Crawford was as bad as Ayr fans were making out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He went over the ball with both feet and the ref bottled it by giving him a yellow. As for our penalty, your keeper got his hand on the ball first. Thought Rovers played some decent football at times. A much better side than under the previous regime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North Terrace Gazza Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 I was right in front of the tackle and yes it was 2 footed but he did get a bit of the ball. However, in today's game probably a red card. That said I can understand why the ref gave a yellow. As for the penalty I shouted for it but keeper definitely got the ball first, the linesman had a perfect view and should have seen that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disagree Ed, I was in front of it as well and have watched it over in the highlights he definitely did not go over the ball. The ref for all his faults yesterday got this right- a yellow card for not being in control of the tackle. Agree on the penalty decisions - made zero difference to the outcome though.

Mgc1910 Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Was more annoyed about the challenge on Adams - can't agree with McCall it was accidental. Was nowhere near the ball and clearly went through him with his forearm. The Rovers no 2 was very fortunate to avoid a red card given how high his trailing leg was. The angle for the penalty isn't great, but from the other side of the pitch, it was blatantly obvious the keeper got the ball. How the linesman missed that beggars belief.

Maybe because we saw where the studs on both boots went, it was a shocker, I love hard football but at least one of his feet only ever had Robbie' leg as its target.

No_Problemo Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Very composed and for me MOTM, however, he did miss at least one chance one on one. Yeah, I don't think that was a particularly easy one on one though - defender right on his heels with the goalkeeper out quickly. Difficult to finish that well.

WhoAmI Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 What's all this rubbish "the player got a touch on the ball first". We here this week in week out by pundits on tv. So if you get the slightest touch on the ball, you can follow through and cut your opponent in half??????? There is no such rule as getting a touch on the ball negating foul play.

Iain Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 But he was sent off despite playing the ball. So it happens. Few argued with that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No_Problemo Posted August 6, 2017 Share Posted August 6, 2017 Four goals in his last four for McDaid.Three goals in the last four for Moffat, andsix in his last four for Moore. Not a bad combination, will be interesting what happens if we add Forrest/McGuffie in to form that front four. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
