St Mirren vs Dundee United


Recommended Posts

Had it been 4 or 5 could anyone really have complained?

3 times we hit the woodwork and a massive stroke of luck for Utd with the disallowed goal was the only thing stopping that being a bit of a shoeing.

 

On the goal that got chopped off, Behich got touched, that's all it was, touched. He went down grasping his face as if he'd been elbowed, realised that there was no foul and got straight up and carried on running back to defend. If it was a foul (massively debatable) there was absolutely no advantage gained in the attack and there was no further claim for a foul until the ball was in the net at which point a couple of Utd players gave it a jast ditch hail Mary attempt. 

This needs to be ironed out pronto. There cannot be an avoidance of responsibility by referees and allowance of players taking it back 20-30 seconds for absolutely marginal calls.

Great win, well deserved and should’ve been by more. That initial decision for the goal was one of the very few the referee got right in-game. The decision to over turn it was farcical. Dundee Utd are truly rotten, if they can’t throw themselves to the deck they haven’t a clue what to do. 
 

What a player Curtis Main is!

As far as I was aware VAR is for clear and obvious errors. The goal was chopped off for something miles back that was actually very debatable.

It seems like VAR had a big impact across the board this weekend, and almost none of it particularly well received.

Plucky performance by the visitors but did Carson have a save to make at any time in the game? We hit woodwork 3 times, 2 goals chopped off and scored 2. Utd in a relegation dogfight and its still October. Hope they stay up as we collect loads of points off them.

Delighted with any win against United but we were much better today than the last two games. Main is a pleasure to watch these days and I thought Tait and Strain both did a very good job as well. Thought the middle three were still a bit off it at times though, think we need to start making changes there earlier in the game.

United were very sloppy at times. Behich was visibly knackered after about 70 minutes, we had so much joy on that side late on.
