Subs were made too late

[jardi]

Once again Queens clutched defeat from the jaws of victory against a very useful Livingston team.
Why oh why did Mr. McIntyre not change the team in the second half? We were being battered, - Lyle and Gav looked knackered and ineffective, and then we gave away a daft penalty.
In truth, Livi more than deserved their draw, although we should have wrapped up the points in the first half. Danny's departure was astonishing, but despite that, Kidd and Baird looked lively and we actually played with more desire and punch when we went down to 10 men.

Livi could repeat their Hearts scoreline against us this week if we don't sharpen up.

The victory was stubbed out by our failure to sink the many chances we had in the first half.

2nd half midfield collapsed and we resorted to punting long balls from defense.

IMO the manager called it spot on with the subs. Lyle was 10 yards behind and Danny never showed up 2nd half.


A point was a fair result all in all.

The sending off was weak to say the least. Common sense refereeing out the window

I thought that we were crying out for a sub or subs after about 10 minutes of second half. You could see that Livvy were dominating and our strikers were out of touch - Lyle in particular.

Have to say tht there was no way that Danny deserved to be subbed - Livvy would have been delighted to see him go off.

It was obvious that midfield was the problem particularly in the middle. Mcshane totally dropped out the game after 30 mins. For me he should have made way for Kevin. Reilly contributed nothing and should have been replaced by Baird.

Danny was never in the game the second half. First half yes he was electric but certainly not the second, he hardly made the half way line where as before he was firing up and down the wing.
