Super Tuesday Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 I thought we shaded the first half and had a good shout at a penalty before half time- don't know what the officials saw but the Falkirk defender gave a clear shove in the back as he jumped to win the ball. Unlucky with disallowed goal, just after half time. Lino was nowhere on it really and went with the shout. Looked close. Game changed with Hippolyte came off the bench for Taiwo, Falkirk looked more of a threat then and had a good chance off the bar soon after. John Baird tonight looked like the one you see in the Premiership- poor and even more permanently offside than Dennis Wyness. Officials are so rubbish at this level it's unbelievable. West stand linesman was 5 yards behind the players all night, bleep test required for him. I'd love to know how certain that main stand one was on the whole ball crossing the line in Langfield's arms from that distance! To be fair it was right in front of me and looked out, but as you say, don't know how a linesman could tell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie88 Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Didn't take long did it? Still, better than your season. Much better than our season, obviously. Second place is a great achievement for a club like Falkirk and they deserve a lot of praise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigbri Bairn2 Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 Big Lee will be a major loss for Saturday but it could be the chance wee O'Hara needs to get his first goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NavyBlueArmy1876 Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 The fans in the west stand are a bit over dramatic! The last time we were there they went absolutely tonto several times for unbelievably innocuous things Understandable really, considering they have to live in Paisley and support St Mirren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a p***k Miller most certainly is a p***k, his loud girly like scream when challenged for a high ball was utterly embarrassing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby_F Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 BTW, on the game being 'entertaining' I don't think any Saints fans thought we were playing good, exciting football. But two thing made it better than a lot of the dreadful displays we've had to watch over the last few years. First, we competed with the 2nd or 3rd best team in the league, and could probably have won it if we'd a bit more luck/quality. Second, the officials made a series of decisions that got the fans going. Everybody, even me, would prefer to have officials always get it right, but at Scottish Championship level, if we're honest, I'm sure we'd all admit that what gets people off their seats more often than silky soccer is a bit of perceived injustice through officials' mistakes.

djchapsticks Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Bit of a snoozefest tonight from both sides, peppered with only a few talking points. I didn't see the first penalty shout but the one bang on half time definitely could've been given. From our angle it was hard to see if Clarkson was onside or not as well. The ref was completely baffling. The aforementioned smack from the Falkirk players pass that he intercepted and gave a free kick as a result was the cherry on top of a particularly poor match for him. As for the linesman on the west stand, I've never seen so many lost wee puppy eyes made to the man in the middle as he didn't know which way a lot of throw ins went. All in all, more slow, steady progress for us. If I'm honest Rae's start has all the hallmarks of Gus McPhersons first half season at the helm when he had to undo John Couglins mess and keep us up before building in the summer.

Shadwell Dog Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Funny to see Clarkson playing tonight. Knocked us back in the Summer as he wanted to play for a team at a higher level and now he's playing for one 26 points below us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coventry Saint Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 Funny to see Clarkson playing tonight. Knocked us back in the Summer as he wanted to play for a team at a higher level and now he's playing for one 26 points below us. Sooner or later, he's going to score a goal for us, and then who's going to have the last laugh, eh? EH? In fairness, I think our form has been nigh-on identical to yours since he came into our side. Doesn't affect your point about the gap between us at the moment, which is frankly a bit upsetting, but he's obviously offering us something that we didn't have before.

Bluegrass Bairn Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 I'm guessing hes on about McGrandles and Grant That was my initial assumption. But now Miller and another? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
effeffsee_the2nd Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 What was that? Lumping the ball up for baird who is about a foot shorter than their back 4??? Very week in ftont of goal and nae fitbaw aw night. St mirran should have burst the net more than once but their shitey finishing saved us a point.

Believe The Hype Posted March 2, 2016 Share Posted March 2, 2016 I was hoping to either equal or better the Hibs result which we managed. St Mirren have been on good form at home recently and have clearly improved since Murray's tenure. This would of felt like 2 points lost rather than 1 gained before the turn of the year, obviously would of loved all 3 but content enough. Hopefully O'Hara gets a chance to start on Saturday now and fire us into 2nd so we can relax on Sunday and watch the Hibs' galacticos go into further, yet expected, meltdown.
