Rose 2 V 1 Tayport, Grady & Tank. Tayport down to 8 men in injury time. Think all were for dissent.
Rose played ok today. The midfield fell out the game towards the end of the second half. Scooby had a nightmare, again. He is fvcking rubbish.
I thought the Rose deserved to win today. They had more of the ball but didn't create too many clear-cut chances. Tayport hit the post twicw and had other chances but it just wasn't going to be their day, even when they pulled one back. They weren't dirty but the ref was card-happy and reds were always going to happen. The injury-time flare-up ended with about five booked but from where I was in the stand, right in front of it, he booked the wrong players under the guidance of the assistant ref. Refs get a hard time but I wasn't impressed with this one. Don't know his name.
He contributed to the first goal indirectly. He blew to stop the game when a Tayport player went down with a head knock but, as the ball was in open play at the time, I thought it should have been a contested drop-ball. I believe, from what I've been told, that the Rose's Hogg was told by the ref to play the ball back to the Tayport keeper but a Tayport player intervened, knocking it onto the ref and back into free play. The Rose passed, rounded the keeper and scored. Obviously Tayport were upset about that but we must get this drop-ball nonsense sorted out.
