Aberdeen Cowden Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 2 hours ago, roberts said: http://www.elgincity.net/?page_id=4854 highlights Good highlights. Pity we didn't have our own. Having watched this several times now I'm convinced that the injury to the Elgin player was an accident. Considering what followed it's a wonder that the ref never sent off two or three Cowden players. And what was up with Elgin keeper? he never stopped pestering the ref.

gordon9736 Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 I appreciate that the highlights will be biased towards us, but damn!, we could easily have score another 4 or 5. McGurn made a number of good saves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wulliemc Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 I dont think that is bias, its a fact. There were two saves in particular that he had no right to make. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poorest player I’ve seen in a Cowden shirt. Anyone could tell from his first game that he wasn’t a footballer, Not at this level anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iateallthepies Posted November 13, 2017 Share Posted November 13, 2017 Wow, poor old Morris is really copping it. Worst ever?He put in a good cross in the first half and in the second half twice lost his marker to get a header then a shot on target. He's nothing special but he is quick and his scoring record suggests he can put chances away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to say that BM I think that injury in the closed door game with the Pars set the boy back to be fair. None of the forwards have exactly had good service this season to get much chances on goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is quite fast so he will always leave some defenders behind but being able to run fast doesn’t make a footballer. Have another look at his “shot” and “header”. I despair.

I aint seen his "pace". pace is a huge asset when played in the right way e.g dale carrick last season..I think garden is quicker than morris. Morris has a terrible first touch. His positional play outside the box is poor. Poor in the air and thus far he cannot put chances away. He doesnt use his body well when backing in or a defender is pressing him. Really poor player sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was the referee that gave Montrose the penalty in the last minute at Links Park last season then gave Edinburgh a penalty and sent Fraser Mullen off in the 2-1 defeat at Central Park. The season before, he sent off Declan Hughes against Stranraer and gave them a last minute penalty. He then sent Dean Brett off the following month against Brechin. He's genuinely the worst referee in Scotland. After the soft penalty he gave against you guys, he sent Gary Fraser off for celebrating with a bunch of kids behind the goals having just scored what turned out to be the winner from the penalty spot. Loads of other ridiculous decisions too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skinny Posted November 14, 2017 Share Posted November 14, 2017 Having watched the highlights, the Cowden goal is a bit odd, I assume the guy who scored had gone off to retrieve the ball for the Elgin throw, and it looks like the Elgin players got caught out by him coming back on the park where he did. Well taken goal in any case. Still think it should have been red for the foul on Strapp! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
