Guest DAVIDB69 Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 The non Scottish sides are always kept apart unless there arent enough scottish sides left. Surprised at how poor QOS finishing was, should have won by a couple of goals; for all their early dominance TNS didnt create much that was clear cut. I reckon ICT would beat them now that theyve started to recover; wouldnt expect Dumbarton to beat them if its down there. Only in Scotland would you get a non open semi final draw incredible Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not true. Only in their first round. Otherwise its an open draw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Berk Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 TNS would beat probably beat Crusaders; bad news if they get to the Final. They shouldnt have got past Livingston, or QOS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
qos_75 Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 It was a poor start to the game but we could and should have won it with the chances we had. Disappointing but not the end of the world. Well done to all those that made it down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
derbydan Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 Is it the case that many seem to regard these teams from outwith Scotland as "DiddyTeams", but they regularly compete in the early European rounds where as none of our entrants do! Maybe its us that are the "Diddy Teams". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe its us that are the "Diddy Teams". I don't see it as an embarassing result. I've already said I reckon TNS would be in our division if they played in this country. I'm just pissed off we've been eliminated by a side who shouldn't be in the competition, hence why I'll be supporting ICT and Dumbarton from here on it.

O'Kelly Isley III Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 This must be the most motley Semi-Final quartet in UK, never mind Scottish , football history. I mean, we're there for a start....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palmy_cammy Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 There was no arrogance from our side. I think our fans and players gave TNS the respect they deserved.We should have won today though. Not because of the respective stature of the teams, but because we created the better chances.

Their goalkeeper and Centre half had great games though and in general they where way better than I expected. Which of course we would "defo" have scored.

MB Posted November 12, 2017 Share Posted November 12, 2017 It was freezing. How we didn't score at least a couple I will never know. We did not play particularly well but should have won. Never mind, I still enjoyed a good day out. Great turnout from the Queens fans today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sloop John B Posted November 12, 2017 Author Share Posted November 12, 2017 Couple of takeaways from today Darren Brownlie is legit good now, I was worried with Kerr missing that we'd see a return to the old Brownlie but he handled everything comfortably and weathered the rough start with Fordyce. At least some reassurance that we might not be doomed if Kerr goes back to St Johnstone. We are absolutely scunnered if we lose Rankin/Jacobs for an extended period, Tapping is really not good enough, just a nothing player that isn't great going forward and not at it defensively perhaps being injured made him look better. But Rankin for all his limitations at least takes charge of the midfield and makes us tough to play through, Tapping really didn't do any of that and it should be a priority to bring another centre mid. Wide is still a problem, McFadden in the middle somehow worked out, Stirling looked dangerous when he came on but Murray was lightweight for the second week in a row and didn't assert himself on the game whilst Dykes seemed to be off the pace again up front and out wide. Just seems to be a lottery what you'll get this week and almost need a kind of horse whisperer to get him motivated. TNS definitely fit the 'No Mugs' billing, they knocked about quite nicely but didn't really have any cutting edge or composure. We largely coped with them after the start but perhaps we didn't go after them enough in normal time as they tired if I'm being critical. The absolute state of the Ref for not knowing the 4 subs in extra time rule, Naysmith having the run over to ask SD the rules is probably the best way to encapsulate this tournament. What a fucking fanbase we have, If we can bring that energy to Palmerston on a matchday or other away games it would be phenomenal. I guess we'll just have to win the league to get Dobbie a trophy then... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would be the 2nd fundamental misunderstanding of the rules by Welsh officials, we really need to look into how we work this if it remains a cross - border competition.
