He intentionally caught McCanns standing/trailing leg and made no attempt to play the ball 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The penalty involving Alegria was a definite but I don't think he could see it for the two defenders blocking his view, could have done with help from the standside assistant. I'm struggling to think of any others You forgot that ridiculous free kick decision against McCann after he'd been hauled to the ground and pulled the defender with him 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FFC 1876 Posted August 13, 2022 Author Share Posted August 13, 2022 There wasn't actually any malice in the tackle he was just trying to commit a professional foul but he caught Mccann very high up so therefore left the ref with a decision to make. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The McCann one is just awful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FFC 1876 Posted August 14, 2022 Author Share Posted August 14, 2022 McCann beating the 6ft Adeyemo to a header was a personal highlight for me yesterday. Who's too small to play left back? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gav-ffc Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Last time we played Peterhead was really impressed at how you guys tried to play out but completely different yesterday, long diagonal on top of McCann all game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who's too small to play left back?He’s actually no that bad in the air. Got some leap on him and definitely wins his fair share. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only remembered having watched the highlights, & at the time couldn't fathom why the foul had gone against him. As, from the ref's perspective & camera view (behind the players) it wasn't conclusively hands & the Linesman didn't flag. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having watched the highlights, I forgot the penalty shout on Morrison first half as well. That looked a penalty at the time. I want to retract my defence of the ref at the Alegria penalty claim. A shocking decision that I think he bottled giving as he knew he'd have to send the defender off as well. The McCann decision looks even worse on the highlights 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shortly after that we played a cuptie in, I think Dundee. The team team had their prematch meal in a hotel up there and by chance Collum was also in it. He asked the manager if he could speak to Alston and when this was granted he said he'd watched the incident again afterwards and realised he'd got it wrong. Alston got an apology out of Collum for it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont think there was anymore than two of last seasons team on the park on Saturday. We have more or less started from scratch this season. Thought the 1-1 game late last season was one of our best performances, we closed Falkirk down all game & should probably have won it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed, perhaps the loss of Ferry contributes more than the players executing the tactics? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If a referee has his line of sight blocked and he can't actually see an offence being committed then there is no way that a penalty should be given. Opposition players will obviously claim for a penalty but an unsighted referee shouldn't allow himself to be influenced by that. An apology is too little, too late. If I was Alston I would have told him to stick his apology up his arse. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
