To not even book the guy that brought down Keena when he was right through was ludicrous and the penalty was a laughable decision. Hopefully won't see her at TFS again in a while. Having watched the highlights, I think she can be forgiven for the penalty, albeit soft. To not card their lad though is one of the worst decisions TFS has ever seen. I can only assume she lost track of which guy it was in the flurry after the award and didn't want to send off the wrong guy. Awful officiating. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A schoolboy signing with youthful exuberance may lead to them thinking they have made it but not even Andy Robertson, Barry Douglas or Aidan Connolly signing from Queens Park would've made them feel they've made it. Millar simply let himself go, perhaps some truth in the rumours that he was a poor trainer but signing for UTD was only 3yrs money guaranteed for him and not that he felt he'd made it without kicking a ball. How do you know what he was thinking? He got his big move back up to the top flight and fucked it by not looking after himself. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched the highlights and imho if you give a pen for that you're going to be giving 3 or 4 a match. Lemon just eased their guy off the ball nothing more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Played great for us and yet was absolutely honking everywhere else. Gardyne is the same with county. Hasn't kicked a ball anywhere else. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Syd Puddefoot Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Was very impressed by the young lads ( and others) who played last night. In a short space if time you could see they had been coached well in their roles. Bodes well. Is it too early to start worrying when another club comes in for Sheerin? Its in our dna. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tea and Busquets Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Rather enjoyable game considering the amount of changes made and 5 players were making their first starts. I’m going to hold my hands up right away and say I got it wrong about Ross. I think he’s very decent even as a sub I’d be comfortable bringing him on if needed. Cannot believe we basically swapped him and Robbie Leitch. The big Albanian lad was very good as was Nesbitt again. The keeper looked assured also. Young Ben Weakes looks excellent as well for his age. Looking forward to Saturday but a bit pessimistic due to them having their number over us. If the club really wanted to push the boat out to fill that No.9 jersey , Gavin Reilly from Livi on loan? Most likely will go to the championship but i’d be at least asking. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know footballers get a name for not being the most intelligent but there is no way he thought he had made it signing for Dundee Utd. Lawerence Shankland has took a move to Belgian team Beerschot, who are bottom of the league as a step up from Utd 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HonestAl Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 Ernaldo Krasniqi (aka The Big Albanian) was born in London, so should be more correctly referred to as “The Big Englander”. No, doesn’t do it for me either. So, affectionately, ‘The Big Albanian’ would seem to sit nicely. Oh, and in Crawf mode, wonder if he fancies a spell at Centre Back? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don’t grasp that, then Holt will be delighted. We've got ourselves a proper mastermind as sporting director then, can't wait for the future. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed for enthusiasm and prepared to put some effort in then Dowds. But I'd hazard a guess as soon as the number 9 shirt is filled then I wouldn't be surprised to see Dowds rock back up at East Fife on loan. Wilson will be out on loan in January unless he improves about 200% 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose it’s really up to us to make sure we tie him into a decent contract so it makes it more difficult for clubs to take him without paying decent compensation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Duck Posted August 12, 2021 Share Posted August 12, 2021 10 hours ago, Bairn in Exile said: This is what worries me, our fanbase has been conditioned to accepting mediocrity and it appears that we are now happy to be merely competing for the League 1 title. When Hearts went down to the Championship do you think that they or their fans were content to just compete for the title? I can't accept anything other than the Falkirk squad being clear favourites to win the title. What the fans accept or expect makes f**k all difference to anything. So all you’re doing is winding yourself up. I prefer to enjoy the football when it’s vaguely entertaining for a change. but maybe you’re right, maybe we shouldn’t be happy competing for the League 1 title. Maybe we should expect to compete for Serie A, if magical thinking will get us somewhere. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not talking right now but after positive start and if continuing then we need to make that decision. Right now I feel really optimistic re Sheerin what he appears to be trying to do and it’s the best and most positive feeling I’ve had for quite a long time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigbrbairn Posted August 13, 2021 Share Posted August 13, 2021 I agree. The positive feel is refreshing. We all know that bad results are going to happen but from his interviews I think he has the personality and guile to sort things. We won't walk this league as all games are bruising but I think after the EK game we know that the depth is there. Too early to judge yet? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
