Pollok 1-2 Talbot

Looked a penalty all day. Defenders shouldn't be grappling forwards like that and expecting to get away with it or for forwards not to make the most of the contact. Complete naivety. 

The red card looks very reckless with the studs over the ball. Could be considered slightly harsh I suppose but hardly a travesty either.

Penalty looked soft. Could he have given it for the ball bouncing and hitting the forearm??? It's a contact sport and there is always grappling. The red I would say was for being out of control but for me in the Slowmo he wasn't high.
But I can only go on the highlights shown.

No, no and no!

McCluskeys one on one in the first half is missing, was a great chance and should have scored.

Do you also have footage of him being pulled down at edge of the box which was the start of his frustration and resulted in the booking.

how did he miss, pollok highlights should be up tonight

Was that devised by the same guy who come up with this stoater?

 

Adam Forde’s late strike for Pollok wasn’t enough to overcome Auchinleck on Saturday down at Newlandsfield after a series of missed chances. Following the game, Tony McInally said his “hands were forced” in a game which whistler David Dickinson provided most of the discussion. After a positive start, the hosts found themselves 1-0 down to a Stephen Wilson penalty for the visitors after Lok defender Mohammed ‘Sena’ Niang was adjudged to have brought down Jamie Glasgow in the box on 19 minutes.

A period of missed chances followed for Lok, with David Gormley on one occasion only having to tap into an empty net after being played in by Gary McCann after bettering Talbot Keeper Andy Leishman at the edge of the box – a lack of match fitness showed for Gormley who was beaten to the ball by the Talbot defender knocking it out for a corner from 6 yards. Stefan McCluskey was next to miss an open goal, firing over from 19 yards on the left hand side of the box after Leishman was caught off his line.Lok found themselves staring at a two goal deficit on half an hour after a series of poor passes from the Lok midfield led to Mark Shankland being fed through to fire a cross – come – shot into the bottom right corner from 12 yards to make it 2-0 to Talbot.

Lok huffed and puffed in the second half with chances falling for Stuart McCann, David Gormley, Stef McCluskey and Gary McCann just missing the mark, then only to have Stef McCluskey sent off for dissent in 77 minutes and Gary McCann for a foul on 86 minutes respectivley. Stuart McCann had a shout for a penalty turned down after being felled by Leishman in the box following Gormleys interception just before halfway, driving towards the goal only to be pulled back, choosing not to fall and play in his young strike partner who took a touch and was met by Leishmans body. Adam Forde’s swift turn and shot into the bottom right hand corner on 90 minutes called for a tense final few minutes for the Talbot rearguard but they saw off a header from Gormley and any other threat.

Even from a homer, to extract that report from the game on Saturday takes some doing. Talbot were the better team all over the park for the majority of the game.

According to this Talbot were never in the game. Quite honestly Talbot were on top and dominated for most of the game.

This match report was obviously written 'tongue in cheek' or as a wind up.
Shanklands goal "cross cum shot" he new exactly where that ball was going.

Looks like an evenly contested match with lots of thrills and spills. 

It wasn't!!

Talbot had much more of the ball, had a couple of balls fizzed across our box before the penalty. We then gifted them possession 25 yards from goal and the were clinical. 

But in the first half we missed two of the best chances of the match, the one from the still earlier in thread and a cut back from Mccann to gormley for an open goal that some how he didn't get to first. 

 

Second half  few chances for both sides with again Talbot in control, until bizarrely we went down to 9 men scored and for some reason seemed to pin Talbot back winning a few corners without creating a clear chance to equalise.

But wasn't a game of great quality.

Butch and Gormley were well respected at Talbot. But we move on and Talbot (fans included) cannot see them as friendly anymore. There is a massive Scottish tie against Pollok just around the corner and these two will be even more determined to put one over us. Let's not forget that and switch off.

Time for Talbot and the fans to show their mettle together.

EPPP!!!
