mizfit Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 May touches the ball first, he catches the keeper on the follow through. The keeper is injured due to not paying attention and being ready to protect himself. It’s not that hard. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This to the Saints support a minute before it happens, with a wee strut added in as if hes Cantona This photo sums up Dundee Utd and their mentality. They think they’re braw, but they’re naw. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Saintee Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 If Celtic had scored that goal it would have been disallowed. Davidson won't change. He's like Tony Pulis. There's never been a match where's he's been relaxed enough to properly attack. He was even raging at Shaun Rooney being too far up the pitch in the playoffs. And that game was absolutely dead. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I assume you’ll be on the same page as me in that we are just not getting close to the best out of our team by being so utterly defensively minded. United are a poor team. They lack a real cutting edge - indeed in two games against us this calendar year I don’t think they’ve really got behind our defensive line properly or created any terribly clear cut chances over both games. But we’ve conceded in both games from shots from outside the box because, inevitably, if you let your opponents have loads of possession and loads of shots from range eventually one will find the target. Saints have the players to play a far more attacking game. Indeed we seem to have taken that tack, bizarrely, against Rangers and Celtic twice each since the World Cup break when we’ve gone out and tried to play a bit of football and get forward rather than simply defending our six yard box. Why we’ve chosen to do that against the top two in the league then be completely passive against United and Aberdeen - who were on a miserable run when they comfortably beat us recently - is a complete mystery. You've now got good combinations up front and in centre midfield. We have options in the wide areas. For the love of god, let’s use them. Win next week and we’re very much in the top six conversation given our run in to the split. But we have to actually go out and win games to do that. The player choices worry me though. Carey being brought on to close the game out and we immediately concede. He then tries to set up a chance deep in injury time when the ball needed taken to the corner. His decision making is poor and it immediately weakens us defensively when he comes on. Yet he is always ahead of Wotherspoon - who for me is a superior player in every department - when we turn to the bench. The judgement of the manager is still very much in question.

It’s a weird one for me, as anywhere else on the park if you slide in and take the ball and then wipe the man out with the follow through it’s almost certainly a free kick. It’s an interesting one. Still funny as f**k, right enough. I agree with this. I don't think it should be a foul necessarily, but if that incident was in the middle of the park and May went in with that level of force and wiped an opponent out, I think it would be a foul and a red card. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s hard to judge because I can’t imagine an outfield player ever finding himself in that body position and being tackled in that way anywhere else on the park. May somehow manages to win the ball pretty cleanly then obviously goes into him on the follow through, but does anyone make a tackle like that at that angle if it’s in the middle of the park? Probably not. It would 100% be wrong to bail that idiot in goal out in any event. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tree house tam Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 I thought the referee was pretty poor for Saints on everything apart from the second goal. Fotheringham should've had two yellows and they never even checked our penalty shout but delayed the game for theirs. There were several dubious decisions for United as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 I am in agreement here, I don't think there's anything wrong with it, however my first thought from the side angle view was "f**k me, he's not half wiped him out there too". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clancy is a bad referee, and the fact he’s taking Premiership games is why VAR won’t work - 9/10 times you’ve got someone worse than him manning the screen. Fotheringham not being booked for his tackle on Montgomery is wild when you see it back - I don’t think it is red but you’ve seen challenges like that result in red cards before. And what about that incident when the guy just straight up shoved Mitchell off the park and into the ad boards? No foul and Mitchell is forced to stay off the park until the ball is in play again. Just hopeless. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lubo_blaha Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 Just saw that Stevie May winner. It’s a low bar, but it’s one of the best things I’ve seen this season. United fans still singing two minutes after they’d equalised and Levitt doing that celebration. May absolutely smashing the Aussie keeper and the ball over the line meaning he had to go off. United bottom of the league on “Legends day”. Tremendous stuff. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted February 19, 2023 Share Posted February 19, 2023 The goalkeeper getting absolutely flattened for the goal adds to the whole thing, but aye, my first gut instinct was they'd be ruling it out. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phillips booked for not even catching the boy, then Montgomery booked for pulling back while a United player doesn't for exactly the same foul... It's a pisstake. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaggy Jenkins Posted February 20, 2023 Share Posted February 20, 2023 One thing I thought VAR might of got involved in is it doesn't look like the ball for the goal kick was in the 6 yard box when taken? or does the pass back constitute a new phase? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
