Thought we were the better side until the disallowed goal, and should have had a couple before it, with both Sammon and Storey missing great chances.

Not really sure who was supposedly offside, but the ball was going in anyway. Still absolutely furious tbh. Douglas Ross is quite possibly the worst human being alive imo.

At least County lost. If Cerny is out long you can just relegate us now.

Storey makes no movement towards the ball and isn't in the keeper's line of vision. Difficult to see how that's offside in the 'current' understanding of the rule. 

Absolutely ludicrous decision. The ball was over the line before anyone touched it, if indeed anyone did touch it.  Given it was Dallas in charge can't say any jags fan should be surprised it was chalked off!!

The current understanding of the rule is that players aren't played onside by a goalie or defending player saving a shot on goal, so he can still be offside due to his position when the shot was taken.

If there's a controversy it'll be whether it was a goal before Storey played it.

There is absolutely no question the ball is over the line before anyone plays it. The linesman might be wholly incompetent but I'm giving him the slight benefit of the doubt and saying he's giving it for Storey interfering with play when the original header goes toward goal. If not, he's flagging for Storey being offside when a) the ball was already over the line and b) it's an onside Devine who touches it after anyway.

Got to credit Lennon on his decision to replace the forwards mid-season. Kamberi and McLaren have impressed me so far.

Along with Allan we look a completely different team. After a mixed bag of signings I’m excited to see what he can do in the summer.

Cheers Hibees and good luck Thistle. We need you guys in the big league.

Aye, good luck Thistle. A good club with a good set of posters on here as well.

Archibald said, after the match, that he didn't bother talking to Dallas about it. Would Lennon have said that? Blindly accepting the linesman's decision was the easier option for Dallas. 

If we meekly accept such things, without question, they will continue to happen.  Not so cuddly? My arse!

Funny to think that if Miles Storey doesn't try and steal a goal when the ball is rolling over the line, we very probably take something from the game.

That and Danny Devine getting a needless red card in a game where he'd actually played really well (for a change) pretty much sum up our season.

Well that was very much like waking up after a hard drinking sesh and finding out that your ride was ugly as f**k. You'll gladly add it to your overall 'pure lad' point tally and brag to your m8's and m9's about it. But you'll never dare mention the unnecessary grizzly details.
