BeeJay Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Our first half performance today was certainly play off material but not at the top end of the league! The second half a little better but...Dundee were much quicker to the ball, particularly in the first half, and like many others worry about our short bench, especially when the injuries start to pile up. A long hard season ahead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A long hard season ahead. Agree first half was poor. Forward line very static and midfield letting runners on top of our centre backs. second half though was far than a little better. It was very good. High tempo, solid at the back and creating chances. small squad I agree which needs a couple of additions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
queenslad Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Thought the match today was similar to Motherwell match is we showed Dundee United too much respect. On current form Utd were there for the taking and we should have started much more aggressively and positive instead of letting them dictate the pace of the game. We set up too defensively with Dobbie playing as a lone striker target man. If you are going to play that way it has to be Dykes up top. If we had got the first goal who knows what would have happened to Utd but with Utd getting it they grew into the game and became more confident. Is there still a 6 second rule or is that a myth? It doesn't get acted upon!!! Apart from the 2 utd goals I cannot remember Martin having a save of note. Once ref blocked Dykes for first goal Dykes was always struggling and that meant Jacobs? had to commit earlier than he should have that opened up shooting opportunity 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High tempo, solid at the back and creating chances. We had more of the ball in the second half, certainly. I don't know that we created that much in the way of chances though. Yes, there was urgency and pressure, but apart from the goal and the triple save that's been mentioned (none of which were very demanding), I don't recall us coming terribly close. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QoS_1919 Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Reading about this 6 second rule is boring. And verging on desperate. Can't for the life of me remember any indirect free kick being awarded for a keeper taking over 6 seconds. Every keeper does it, ours as well. All the ref does is gesture to the keeper to get a move on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The ref must have deemed it a skewed clearance from that big defender, but he seemed to hook it back deliberately. I thought the goalkeeper made a mistake in picking it up, but he got away with it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the ref does is gesture to the keeper to get a move on. Our 'keeper will do it if we're holding on to a lead with time running out. This guy did it from the beginning. Whether it's penalised or not it's clearly breaking a rule. Had an indirect free-kick been given early on it would have cut it out. Instead the ref let him get away with it time and time again and as a result he shaved minutes off the game.

Definite back pass ref missed this and sure he also got in the road of one of our players before a united goal.. The ref had a terrible game booked Harkins on first half then a Utd player done exactly the same 2nd half nothing said.. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I shouted for it but wasnt remotely surprised not to get it. I think he was intent on passing it back but not in the way he ended up slicing it back. I did think the keeper, under little pressure, took an unnecessary risk in picking it up though when he had plenty time to just kick it clear. I didnt really expect to get it but its a "seen them given" incident. Harkins booking incident was similar to theirs in the second half (as indeed Harkins clearly ran to the ref to point out) but there was a lot more force in his wild swipe which is why it was a booking all day long. No complaints on that front from me. Dont actually think the ref did a lot wrong really although Dobbie was adamant he should have had a penalty second half. I would need to see it again though. At the time I thought not. Edited August 11, 2018 by Skyline Drifter 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steakpiegravy Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 At the time I thought not.Not. Went down too easy. Basically rolled over. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 I didn't think Dobbie's was a penalty but from my angle it looked like the Utd defender put the ball out for a corner with his arm in a later incident. I'd like to see that one again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
palmy_cammy Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 I thought it was a very strong claim for a penalty. He knocked it by the defender and would have had a free shot at goal had he not gone down. I’m not sure in that case why he would have chosen to go down.I thought the ref had a poor game. Dundee Utd seemed to get a lot of leeway with what was deemed a foul, whereas he couldn’t wait to blow against us. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because he wasn't getting to the ball for this free shot? It looked that way to me. I didn't think it was a penalty either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeeMan Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 The strangest decision he made was not coming back to book Doyle after he absolutely chopped down the United player in front of the new stand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BIGdavieT Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 If we're not signing anyone else then we will be relying on those youngsters on the bench today to play regularly. Are they ready? There is definitely some hope for Murray. How did Tremble look today? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
