A display like the second half would have won it for us. But sadly my memory will be of two rubbish penalties when it was in our grasp. Even if one of them had gone in we were still in with a chance.

Doc Rob Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 The first half was just awful, and we were lucky to go in two down, but the character shown to come back from that, and then come back again in ET, was quite something. I am beyond gutted now though. A 4-0 reverse would actually have been easier to take. I’d be over it already. What do you expect given the disparity in resources and with us a division down? But to come that close to a victory for the ages, and have it taken away, is really rough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
otterjohn Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 This is a hard one to take guys One minute I'm annoyed about the first half then I'm full of pride till the last 2 penalties and now I'm broken hearted after those terrible penalties Best we all take another few minutes to think about what we are posting We are all upset enough without upsetting each other Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jambonian Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Gutted is not the word! I had visions of Gordon being the hero and gettin it right up Lennon and co. Shocked at the pace of both penalties we missed. Kingsley for me was a dead cert the way he hits a ball from distance, Wighton not so much. Nothin worse than pacing about in front of the tv and begging for goals to go in. Collapsed in a heap when the first one was missed. I suppose after being 2-0 down at half-time we probably went further that we maybe should've but still absolutely gutted. Good to see the players playing with a bit of passion and bite. Halkett was utterly distraught. Always good to see a player show such disappointment so hopefully this will spur us on for the rest of the season.

It went to penalties and two of our players had theirs saved. Far better players than them have had theirs saved. Ryan Christie for starters. I said in another thread that Celtic will not have a tougher domestic game all season than the one they had today. They had a player on the pitch who cost them £9M alone and a goalkeeper on the bench who according to the commentator cost them £5M(thought it was £2M myself)' we had loanees and freebies and you couldnt tell the teams apart. Our day will come again, of that I am absolutely positive. Gutted and proud in equal measure. But we were just two penalties away from victory. Why these two players decided to place their kicks instead of leathering the ball, I'll never know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Gorgie Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Proud of the lads. Shite first half but they had a rocket up the arse. So proud, **** they rats.

Cut The Crap Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Didn’t really turn up till half time and bottle crashed at the end. Not a winning strategy. Anyway, let’s breeze our way out of the championship by showing that second half commitment in the rest of the games we play this season. No more Alloas please!

I don't think we intentionally went into the game with the plan to stand off them. We were in their faces in the first 6 or 7 minutes, they then got a foot on the ball and our players went into their shell and invited the pressure.

boag1874 Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 It’s easy to slag the 2 penalty misses. Their Keeper goes the wrong way and they’re good penalties, it’s such fine margins. Pens aside, I thought Kingsley was absolutely outstanding today against some of their best players. Wighton did a job replacing one of our best players and gave his all. It’s easy to slag the way we set up to contain in the 1st half, but this is a team who are, let’s be honest, vastly superior to us (at least on paper). Robbie had the balls to change it up at half time and it worked, almost winning us the game but for a poor miss in the last few moments (which Gino just about made up for in ET) This hurts obviously, but it could be an absolute defining turning point in our time under Neilson. Today we showed we can compete with the best teams in the country, and we should be absolutely raring to get back up where we belong.

Gambo Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 2nd half and extra time were excellent. First half we were good as well, only a dodgy pen and great strike stopped it from being excellent as well.😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Ramsay Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 Totally blew that and gave them a 2 goal head start. They are ****ing shite and if we had taken game to them from the start we would have won that. Find it hard to do the whole proud thing after that. Missed opportunity.

Bazzas right boot Posted December 20, 2020 Share Posted December 20, 2020 1st half was poor and eduardo missed 3 sitters to really end us. We came back well tho, Ginnelly had a couple of really good chances, with the last one at 2-2 being the possible winner. Extra time was backward and forward, and coming back again was different class. Once they missed thier penalty, if we scored after we were quids in.... ****ing brutal.

Kingsley turned his penalty into at least a 50-50 for the goalie the way he took it. Not good. I'm hoping this gees the players up though, knowing that we gave those chancers a good fecking fight in the end, and hopefully motivates them to get their hands on the cup next time around.
