Game was already over by that point though and you could’ve played the second half with 8 and still seen it out comfortably enough. It was six and half a dozen. Miller and Scobbie head to head being silly then Miller throws himself to the ground. Ref went for the top pocket but seemed to then take advice from his linesman.

Happened from one of their corners just a minute or so before half time. He got booked and I think Miller got booked for protesting that it was only a yellow. Tbf, stuck the head/pushed him suggests you' re guessing. As most folk in the ground were. My nephew caught it on his phone so we were able to rewind and zoom in. Both booked for silliness.

Senor Bairn Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Can’t think of a performance that bad in years. I’ve sat through us getting tanned by Cowdenbeath 4-1 on a Tuesday night. Thomson is the only one with pass marks today. If we want to survive this season we’re going to need to get rid of 90% of that team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Senor Bairn Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Btw, the guy in front of me that asked me to move because my knees where near his back can f**k off.Dunno why I agreed to move along a seat. Can’t help I’ve got big long sexy legs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russ Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Miller got booked for his actions that caused Scobbie to respond, not excusing Scobbie it was s daft thing for him to do. Miller was lucky not to have been booked earlier, he’s a dirty b*****d. It was six and half a dozen. Miller and Scobbie head to head being silly then Miller throws himself to the ground. Ref went for the top pocket but seemed to then take advice from his linesman. Fair enough you both would’ve had far better views than me.FWIW thought Miller was very lucky to stay on the park gave away 3 fouls before he got booked and could’ve been booked for any of them. I’d imagine a part of why he was hooked at half time was he might’ve got sent off. And ‘cause he was shite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stumigoo Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 There seemed to be a number of the Falkirk support clapping at the end, I'm assuming it was aimed directly at the goalkeeper who did have a very good game. Surely no supporter would clap a performance as bad as that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny Danger Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 The only player who didn’t get pass marks for us was Harry Lewis. Did nothing the whole game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FFCTV said Watson was injured too Ah well, fair enough. I don't suppose Hartley wanted this to get out before the match so it's understandable that nothing was said.

Surely no supporter would clap a performance as bad as that? Yep. I was one of the stupid to stay to the end and like you said was solely aimed at Robbie Thomson.The rest of the gutless c***s can get themselves to f**k. The only player who didn’t get pass marks for us was Harry Lewis. Did nothing the whole game. Genuinely the only time we actually made him work today was an Alex Harris cross right to him. Didn’t have a shot that was within 10 yards of him. He looked thoroughly bored in the first half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomson the only one with pass marks but every outfield player can go and won’t be missed. Didn’t realise kidd was on the bench and even then thought it was suicide sticking muirhead to lb instead of McGee. Just baffling decisions throughout Gallagher went off before the half hour so maybe Hartley felt that Kidd couldn't handle a full hour + given he's just back from injury? That said, it should still have been Muirhead in the middle and McGhee to LB although I have heard that he is very unhappy at playing there.

As a result we have half a reserve team on the park. Still think it’s a strange midfield. Don’t understand why Gallagher starts and can’t understand no Dunne today. Your team are shite.

Sarto Mutiny Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Excellent stuff today, and the only real complaint is that we should have won by more. Night and day compared to the performances under Ray McKinnon. However, it's all very well missing all those chances against relegation fodder but we can't afford to be that profligate against the better teams. It might end up costing us.

Wish I'd gone for more than the tenner I did put down. I had them on at -1, they were 3/1. On a double with Middlesbrough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shandon Par Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 It’s tough for Falkirk being knocked out of the cup like this but at least it lets Hartley concentrate on building on his strong league showing since taking over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dundee Hibernian Posted November 19, 2017 Share Posted November 19, 2017 Watching Hartley's interview, he appears to think he's doing all he can off the field, but it's up to the players once they are on the park. Yet he's ignoring the responsibility he has for putting an immobile player like Lee Miller up front, leaving the more able, younger guys like Austin and Hippolyte on the bench. Having said that, Miller did draw a few fouls, but the difference between his fitness a few years ago and now should be obvious to an experienced manager, playing away from home, like Hartley. For United, no failures in the first half. My concerns today would be our lack of replacements: Nkoyi and McMullan looked worse than some of the Bairns.
