Double Whammy ?

[JRSLEFTPEG]

Trying hard to be objective here. I have no arguments about the silly tug on the jersey by McGuire being a penalty , none at all. What I do find unacceptable is for McGuire to be red carded AND a penalty award. We have enough problems getting folk in the ground without a daft moment more or less giving us a mountain to climb and ruining the game.

We have to face it... WE ARE NOT GOOD ENOUGH!!

Bagapapa , I wasn't asking about that. I was asking whether a ref spoils a game with the double punishment ?

I see your point JRS, although I suppose Dallas was going by the laws of the game...

Remember where you heard it first!!

Bagapapa I'm disgusted at your comment!

Queens gave their all in the 2nd half and absolute hammered Dundee Utd.

Did you actually watch the game?

[Bagapapa]

What was the final score? We got beat. We were not good enough. It was not the worst game we have have played but we got beat, suggests to me we were not good enough. I stayed to the end which suggests that we were in with a chance. But, we weren't good enough. In the run up, I suspect that we won't be good enough but hey ho. Glad you enjoyed today Jardi masochism aint my bag though.

On a serious mote , next Saturday at home to Alloa is looking like a huge game in what will be a small crowd . Partick won again while Falkirk was postponed . Thistle are coming in like a steam train now and we need points on the board.

Masochism may not be your bag papa, - but you have to admit that if Queens hadn't had a man sent off ( a booking was adequate punishment) Utd would have been pummelled in the second half?

I must admit that in the first 45 we were second to every ball and we looked liked we were suffering a hangover from Pittodrie, - but whatever was placed in the half time tea should really have been checked by the DS, because Queens were awesome in that second period.

People around me were saying at half time that they'd settle for a draw, but I would have been quite content with 0-3 at that point.

Naysmith must be congratulated for re-jigging his squad and the master stroke was bringing Marshall into midfield...……….perhaps that's where the boy should stay for the rest of the season? His work rate was incredible as was Mercer, Low and Dykes, - while Martin had his best 45 minutes for Queens, - coming to meet every ball and making a cracking save as well.

Dobbie's free kick was inches away, - while Mercer's shot off the bar was superb, - so apart from the result, - what was not to like about that second half? The players bust a gut for the fans and their manager and they almost got the point which was the minimum they deserved on the day.

I'm truly sorry papa, - but there was nothing masochistic about watching that second half performance. I've always said that if the players give you 100%, - you can't ask for any more, - and as far as I'm concerned and all the people around me, they couldn't have done ay more.

Well done Queens......you did us proud today, but it didn't quite come off for you in terms of the result.

Sorry jardi I’ve got to disagree with some of your comments here.

You point out it was a fantastic 2nd half display......yes it was a good display from 10 players but the first half we were shocking with 11 players and a game lasts 90 minutes. There is no point in just playing well for 45 minutes in games.

You say Naismith should be congratulated for re jigging the team.....for me he should be criticised for his tactics in the first half. Dobie was up front on his own yet again and was isolated for most of the first half. How many times has this happened this season. The man is far more effective when he has dykes to play off. Naysmith was forced to make those changes with the sending off and they just wouldn’t have happened otherwise.

You say that if the players give 100% effort then we can’t ask for more......yes we should. Any one of us can go out and give 100% effort. Players should be giving 100% every game and that should be taken for granted. It’s the effort coupled with the quality that makes good players and in the dept of quality I think we fall a bit short for competing in the play offs.

So for me bagpa is correct in what he is saying.......we are triers and I would never say we are a poor side, but we just aren’t going to be good enough to get through any play offs, or even get into them for that matter

Oh and another thing it was Jacobs that hit the bar and finally. If it was a Utd player who brought down dobie in the same situation then we’d all be screaming for that player to walk and get a penalty. that is the rules so there is no point crying about
