    With the benefit attending, BT Sport recording, Sunday papers and Sportscene analysis their penalty NEVER a penalty
    and allowed them back into the game. However, using same media review, everyone agreed our's a definate penalty following a clumsy challange. That settles this debate

    Not for me it doesn't settle it. Neither award was justified...ours was minimal contact which, in my opinion, Cadden initiated(watch his right leg in the replay from behind) , similar to the one Celtic got against us in November. With theirs, Frear wins the ball, therefore it's not a penalty. You can argue the challenge was a bit on the clumsy side which may have swayed the referees decision, but it still didn't justify a penalty award.

    Both awards were given as pens, but there's absolutely no doubt 1 was correct ... and the 1 they got wasn't !

    Neither award was correct. If we had been on the receiving end of a penalty award like that this place would be up in arms and rightly so.

    We got lucky with that penalty award, though sadly they also got a slice of luck with theirs in the second half
