Wee Mikey Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 Regardless of previous games with controversial decisions against Hearts, why not simply look at the last two? The fact is that Sevco simply could NOT score against us in open play. Our goal came via slick play. They scored a legitimate goal. They won due to a blatent off-side and thereafter killed the game aided and abetted by the ref. Hence a point stolen as a draw was the correct result wirhout poor refereeing. All very well for the St J manager to claim that THEY dropped 2 points but it is neither posession NOR attempts that win games (as we all know) ... It is only GOALS that count. Hearts scored 2 good 'uns and St J only 1. The penalty was a travesty. Robbed yet again. So, simply add those cheated points to our tally and remember that we are playing wirh a depleted squad. Anybody who thinks that Sevco 'Deserved the Win' or that St J were 'The Better Team' should maybe go and support them instead of having a pop at Hearts. That's TWO ref-instigated goals in only the last TWO games that have cost us BIG-TIME. Just sayin' ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avhudtheteeshirt Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 On another note, will the St Johnstone player be offered a 2 match ban for trying to do back somersaults in the penalty box??????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were better in the first half in both games in my opinion, as you say its goals that matter, and we aren't talking our chances, we should have been a few ahead at St Johnstone, and if so it would have been a totally different match. But I think we're playing ok, we've certainly improved from last season, and when everything's clicking i'd fancy us v anyone in this league Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikey1874 Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 While I've complained and also pointed out we would be top of the league with the main decisions reversed I have also moved on. We need to play better and start winning games again. If we do that with players gradually coming in we can still put in a league challenge. All the other sides have shown they can drop points even Celtic and we can put together an even better run of games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwidoug Posted December 6, 2018 Share Posted December 6, 2018 I look at the table and can scarcely believe my eyes. Despite a horror run of injuries, officiating and results we are stunningly close to the top. Good result against Motherwell and we are right back in it.

At the time, I was screaming for a penalty for the Wotherspoon handball. However, the replay suggests it was just outside the box. Definitely a handball though.

I keep reading all these angry Levein-focused rants and I honestly wonder how I can feel so very different about this season. We're still hanging in there and it's absolutely incredible given the last few weeks. Testament to how well we did early on, and also probably down to other results going our way a couple of times. I'm far from having given up on doing well this season, we're not far off getting our injured players back (hopefully) and then we'll see how the land lies. I was really down about the St J penalty thing for a few days but Levein's mischief today has cheered me up. A good result tomorrow would be even better, of course. Better times are just around the corner. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scott herbertson Posted December 7, 2018 Share Posted December 7, 2018 You're correct of course, Mike. but we've just got to get on with it and hopefully tomorrow we'll get the result we EARN, not the result that the referees decide is our due.
