You can reach ibrox quicker thanks going to our stadium so respect anyone supporting their local team. Wish St Mirren were at least 50mls from Glasgow.

RiG Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 It just wouldn't be a St Mirren thread without Bobby_F moaning about a refereeing decision going against his team. Halcyon days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIG BEN Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Is he the big holding midfielder? Man of the match imo. He had a very good game but how he wasn't booked in the first few minutes for the very late foul on Morgan beggared belief. That aside, he helped his fullback out every time Morgan got the ball Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was obvious AJ wanted us to put a marker on him early bells. Ashcroft done the same in the first half. Morgan was quiet after that but did look threatening beforehand.

I remember him bossing a game against us for Thistle a few seasons back, at a point when we should have been competing with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soctty Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 Thoroughly deserved win for Pars. Out fought and outplayed us. We looked like we could cause some problems in the first half, but some dangerous moments came to nothing. We are reminded yet again that our defence has the potential to be our downfall, although the midfield did it no favours. The return of MacKenzie, Davis and Magennis can't come quickly enough. Looking forward, we should have enough to get the points at home to QoS, although we'll be struggling even more in defence without Eckersley and Buchanan, both red carded on Saturday. The Eckersley one looked very soft - no complaints on Buchanan's. Back down to earth with a bump, but life goes on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CallumPar Posted September 18, 2017 Share Posted September 18, 2017 To those questioning Eckersley's red, please watch the footage again and watch Eckersley's left hand. He clearly tries to gouge Splaine's eye. There is absolutely no place for that on a football pitch, this is a lot worse than an elbow and could have resulted in a serious eye injury. Dembele at Spurs was given a 6 match ban for a similar incident in May last year, yet you're arguing it's not even a red card? The linesman had a perfect view of this, and it looks like he was the one who made the decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has badly let down our club when we have key defenders out injured made worse with the second red card. It wasn't a bad day at the office it was a house of cards falling almost the same thing happened at Greenock playing one hour with ten men.

Hand was on his face, that is clear, but to suggest it's clear that he tried to gouge his eyes is most definitely not! The fact the Dunfermline player never reacted at all suggests that wasn't the case. From the camera angle, its a soft one IMO but then again he was pretty stupid man handling him in the first place when there was no need to.

If we pull off a drew it will be a good result but fully expect Queen's to win. Once we are back to a full squad which will be soon we will start to fly , I know you will not agree with that Saturday's game had no reflection on how we can play. Dunfermline , if you play like that week in week out will be hard to knock off the top of the table. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
