I usually enjoy games as a neutral, but today was an exception. This was dire and woeful stuff, from both sides, and from the officials. The referee had me wondering if he was still under the influence from New Year. Anyway, I expected more of Airdrie given their recent results, but can't help but feel that they stole the points today. I do like Dylan Easton as a player (except against us) but felt that he was caught in possession a few times. Max Currie badly needs to learn when to come off his line. As a neutral, it was difficult without knowing which team was near the top and which was near the bottom. The result suits me as we too will be putting in a serious bid. But all in all, 90 minutes of my life that I won't get back. Don't talk absolute nonsense. Yes wasn't a great game but definitely deserved the 3 points. Not sure what game you watched 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what game you watched I thought you might have just edged it. We never looked like scoring but you guys were hardly battering our goal. Wish we could start picking up some points through out poor displays... Always appreciate an unbiased point of view too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To say we stole the points though is a stupid comment. 2 goals chopped of that should have stood. Free kick that hit the post, decent save from another free kick. One just by the post in the 1st min. Decent save from easton in second half. Plus scored one and clean sheet. Didn't play great but certainly didn't steal the points. 3points was the correct outcome. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But all in all, 90 minutes of my life that I won't get back. Aye unfortunately most teams don’t roll over and have their bellies tickled to gift us an easy 3 points quite like Clyde do but alas. It wasn’t a vintage game, and I don’t think anyone would argue that, but thought Airdrie were worth the 3 points. Almost everybody on here and who watched the game says Easton’s first-half goal should have counted and Allan was unlucky to have his chalked off also. Could/should have been 3-0 without even playing particularly well. Hardly sounds like stealing 3 points. Max Currie was Dumbarton’s most creative player and he could have admittedly won them at least a point. But other than his moments of madness I don’t remember them creating any chances. Was our third game in a week, for a hybrid side suffering with Covid and injuries, over the festive period, on a stuffy pitch against a stuffy side. Happy to grind out a 1-0 win with the only bit of quality in the game in those circumstances. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't have a bad match but got sent off in the last match and I'm not sure if he played RB in that game. He has produced a mixed bag by all accounts. Getting on in his career a bit and not quite the player he was in his first stint with us. Cheers for letting me know. Hope you’re not too confused that I didn’t know who Andy Geggan is Enjoy the defeat, and inevitable relegation. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's not a bad player to have in a squad with his experience and dig (if paired with the correct player in CM imo). Plus he is pretty versatile in that he can cover at RB/RM as well if need be. Can't do anything about the final comment unfortunately 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jan Vojáček Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 I didn't think it was a foul watching it live. I really didn't think it was a foul watching it back on the stream. And that makes it even more unbelievable that Steven Kirkland thought it was. Bizarre decision. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moonster Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 16 hours ago, pleslie99 said: I didnt think it was a pen at the end. Would like to see it again but looked OK to be, clattered the man but after he took the ball cleanly. That being said, we got away with a huge one in 1st half when our keeper flapped and got away with murder. I thoight the two goalkeeping incidents yesterday perfectly highlighted the ridiculousness of our application of the rules in regards to keepers. Ramsbottom flapped at the first one and there's nowhere near enough contact on him for a foul, not in a million years, but you can't fart near a keeper or it's a foul. One at the end the keeper clatters through the striker whilst swinging both arms at his head to try and knock the ball away but nothing given. I'll never understand why keepers are protected to the level they are. I'll also never understand gaffers who go through 4 months of a season and still don't have any idea how to line up. You can argue we've got players missing but yesterday we looked like a bunch of lads told to go out and do their best but no actual gameplan or rigid formation, just loose bodies on a pitch chasing the ball. Faz has the rest of January to sort the squad out for me or he'll be the next manager out the door. And I say that as someone who can't quite understand where the team that stuck 8 past Clyde and East Fife have disappeared to. A real baffling turn of events and it alarms me that our management team can't pull the team out this hole. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet another inconsistency by the ref If the referee issues a yellow card to the opposition player for the incident, the player who was injured as a result of it does not have to leave the field after receiving treatment. This change to the rules has been in place for at least a few seasons now, I think. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet another inconsistency by the ref To be fair... He was walking off and the ref told him he didn't have to. That would suggest (as above and he my estimates) he was booked for the foul he committed on Boyle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
