LIVIFOREVER Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Boy got a bit carried away with the Jurassic park description of our midfield, comparing them to Velociraptors , but yep, a good read. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That;s a bummer, not heard anything on how Miller is doing, so doubt he'll be fit to play, so looks like Robinson or Erskine are our only options to take up Dykes place. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 What was Dykes sent off for? I was about as shocked as him being sent off as I have been with him banging in the goals. His discipline was never an issue with us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An 'elbow' according to the BBC. Looked to me like he just went up for a header and nothing else but Sportscene/other highlights should clear it up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or has that rule now changed? I'm sure we've appealed and won against yellow cards before, trying to remember who we got one rescinded recently (last season). Think it was against Dundee when Lawless got booked wrongly for diving when he'd been fouled in the box. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiviLion Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 Think diving and mistaken identity are the only reasons a yellow can be rescinded. So unless someone else threw an elbow, we're missing Dykes for the Aberdeen game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crispy Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 (edited) I missed the first booking as play had stopped at the time. The second one it seemed like he way just competing for the header. He was getting some joy against the CBs today. All in all, it was a really encouraging performance in what I felt was our first real test of the season. The games can't come quick enough and looking forward to the weekend I fear we'll really miss Dykes up front. If fit, is probably our best bet at the occupier role but he obviously doesn't have the same mobility. It'll be interesting to see how we address it against the big CBs at Aberdeen.

LogieLivi Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Collum already had the yellow and red in his hand before the goal kick was even taken. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andylivi1 Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Gary Holt mentioned in his post match press conference that they will consider appealing the second yellow card, you can hear his interview on the latest podcast. I wasn’t aware that we could appeal the yellow myself but fingers crossed it’s a successful one if we do go ahead cos he’s been a huge player for us and will be a big miss against Aberdeen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking forward to the hearing the guys discuss the game as we've very very little to go on due to the BBC/Ibrox situation. I was wondering if we'd appeal the sending off as it did seem like Goldson got underneath him as Dykes won the leap. To be honest, the first one was a weak booking too; I think you could flip coin on whether a ref calls that a booking, awfy soft. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdinburghLivi Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 (edited) As far as I'm aware you can only appeal yellows for simulation and mistaken identity. Would be a pointless appeal anyway, it was a yellow card. Edited September 16, 2019 by EdinburghLivi 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LIVIFOREVER Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 Pity you can't appeal goals being disallowed and given, we'd get awarded a 2-2 draw. Not sure Dykes deserved a 2nd yellow, but I doubt we'll get it reversed now. He should learn a lesson from it though, you can't risk a silly first yellow doing stuff like that when you're playing against one of the erse cheeks, esp away to them, you're walking on egg shells for the rest of the game doing that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll listen to it later tonight, cheers. Don't suppose Holt mentions why Lithgow wasn't playing, or how things are going with Pittman? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah didn’t mention it, hoping both are close to returning though, big players for us ahead of a big spell in the season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
