McCabe pussyfooting about for their first and a free header from a corner for their second. Yep - Arbroath probably can argue they were the better team given the first half was a nonentity but that was really lazy defending for their first (twice) not sure if it was McCabe both times but plenty of chances to get stuck in and get the ball away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Ghost of B A R P Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Congratulations to the lichtie-smokie guys from Morton supporters everywhere... To Queens, just forget the pandemic and get Shields extended... looked a good player even when you were struggling and is now carrying you. Dunfermline will have him off you in a second otherwise... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Otis Blue Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Definitely an opportunity missed there, but it was important not to lose in the end. You have to say Arbroath deserved their point and the substitutions changed the game for them. How often do you think at 2-0 up ....... need to stay focussed ..... but suppose its a natural reaction to relax a bit and think job done. Thought it was a good game though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
19QOS19 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 It's a fair result but it's hard not to be very angry at that from a QoS point of view. Yet again, two individual errors cost us points. McCabe - just kick the ball ffs and another free header for the equaliser. As pissed off with AJ sitting on his hands again. You think he's getting somewhere then he reverts to type. It's 2-2 in a game where a win is massive for us. We have our most attacking bench we've had all season and he makes one fucking sub. Say what you like about Campbell, he made effective changes almost immediately. AJ sits there hoping for a bit of a magic. I suppose we aren't in a worse position than before KO so should be grateful for that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sneeuq Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Mixed emotions, thought we were well on the way to a win but fair play to Arbroath came back well and prob the better team overall. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AFC360PUNK1320 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 (edited) And THAT is why we should play Bobby, hate having a go at DC but a massive balls up by him changing the defence at half-time as they were doing great in the first half, it was clear to see Whatts was struggling even the superb commentary team was saying that, Stewart and Bobby changed the game and also Doolan's link up play was superb when he was on, EVERY AFC player was superb today, could have won it if Ruth had went down but he is still a young lad and is still learning, well done lads 36-0.

Northfield 53 Posted January 16, 2021 Author Share Posted January 16, 2021 Back to the same old Queens . Get into a quick 2 nil lead then relax job done . Turning point for me was a easy pass to Pybus from Kirkpatrick 3 nil but he tried a crazy shot no chance of going in . Dick Campbell changed it at 2 nil we should have as well but no we just hope that we could hold on . That is what we were doing a goal was coming for Arbroath very disappointing result especially when 2 nil up . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lyle2Dobbie Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Unforgivable stuff from that pea heart McCabe for that 1st goal...a complete coward in the tackle and also a coward on the ball as well for much of the game lumping aimless balls at arbroath centre backs at every opportunity! Our midfield were collectively dreadful...fair play to Arbroath showing some dig and getting probably a deserved point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rjc-1988 Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Despite some great play involving Fitzpatrick and Shields we were disappointing. Arbroath deserved a point which was a huge result as a defeat for them would have made life difficult for their survival hopes.A big letdown from a commanding position but our defending was poor all day and to be honest as soon as it went 2-2 I would have taken a point because I thought Arbroath looked the likelier team. It was bad enough throwing away two points but a loss would have been a huge downer.The only threat we have down the right is when Gibson gets forward - East is fortunate that we have been short of numbers as he just doesn’t offer enough to justify a regular start. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smokerson Posted January 16, 2021 Share Posted January 16, 2021 Great reaction to come back from 2-0 down, thought the game was dead and buried, and it shows the players are definitely up for the fight. Ruth should’ve went down when he was through on goal, the guy has swiped at him, made contact, unbelievable honesty to stay on his feet. crazy crazy decision to play whatley at full back, I suppose he deserves credit for rectifying it, maybe should’ve been done at half time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he goes down he dives/cheats. Just because there's contact doesn't make it a penalty. Regardless of what football pundits say. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No not a natural reaction if you have players who are fully focused they we win that game . We got back to our old habits of poor defending just being lazy no excuse for it . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We got back to our old habits of poor defending just being lazy no excuse for it .I agree it was very lazy defending - McCabe was punished for being half hearted and indecisive and the second goal was yet another free header from a corner. Despite a good recent run that performance highlights that we have a long road ahead to secure our safety. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
