VAR - how can we chalk this off

What a goal from Cortes - from start to finish and what a finish, had to applaud that, superb.

Strongest team to start today as we have a full week of rest coming up. Score a few first half then change early second half to give others game time. 3points, no injuries and a barrowload of goals please. Probably wishful thinking as I'm sure it will be the usual parked bus from Saint Johnstone making life extremely difficult and frustrating. So come on Gers, at least give us the 3points to top the league and make it a beautiful Sunday.

That team just rolls off the tongue without even thinking about it. The Wee Prime Minister, R.I.P. always remembered, always loved.

That is an example where VAR has fucked football. Head, shoulders, knees and toes (sing it if you need to ) cannot be right to chalk off a goal. Imo, there should be daylight between defender and attacker for it to be called offside, as it was before some arseholes decided to fuck things up for "the betterment of the game".

Have to agree. Excellent last night and still not fit to last 90mins. Once fit he will certainly play a huge part in the coming months.

If memory serves me well, England v Scotland 1975 with our very own Stuart Kennedy in goals, England had 5 shots on goal and scored with all 5. Last night we had 43 shots, 23 on target yet only scored 3. Just saying.

You know what, it's the tims that are celebrating tonight.

I know Dessers has scored two but we are crying out for a clinical centre forward.

Never known a rugby ball to levitate.

Fuck me, so it was. Think I'm going senile. Cheers. Anyway can anyone have the answer to the right question.

Tuesday night v Aberdeen - 10min in Balogun off with concussion replaced with Souttar. What game you thinking.

Whe Balogun was injured on Tuesday night, did the ref stop play or was a foul awarded? Similar incident, can't remember the outcme of the incident.

Can we not just accept that these two plus Shankland are the best strikers in Scottish football and are a handful for any defender not just Goldson. Give them some credit.(not too much though)

Should be appealling that red card for sure 100%. Sterling slipped, caught the toe and his momentum carried him through the player who dived out of the way making the tackle worse than it seemed. Commentators were astounded at the decision especially after it went to VAR. How many times since VAR was introduced have refs went with thier original decisions. Count it on one hand for sure. Scottish football hate us, from SFA to refs to teams to fans, we are the pariah of Scottish football. Let them come - we don't care.

Yaaaaaasssss Cantwell cracking finish

Yaaasssss

Goooaaaaaal Fabio

We're huffin and puffin and getting nowhere at the moment.

Well done to the ladies today, playing in terrible conditions with that gale force wind. Not a day for football as both teams really struggled to combat the wind, playing with or against it. With City beating the tims, it leaves us in comand with a six point lead. Should see us lifting the title as we seem to be that much better than those two this season. In fact it looks like a treble for us this season.

Enjoyed that tonight, tims well and truely spanked. To thier credit they put up a good defence, keeping us out until they angered us with that more than dubious penalty. Deserved victory and well done ladies. I really have to mention before I sign off - that referee was diabolical tonight. His decisions were unbelievable at times and not just at the "penalties" to them. I'm pretty sure he must have had a green/white hooped shirt on under his black top.

Haven't yet read the posts since FT but I have to say this, sorry lf it has been mention before. How corrupt is Scottish football referring to the penalty incident before HT. Clear and obvious - YES. Goal kick awarded and taken - YES. VAR checked - YES. So how come 20mins later it's shown as offside. Everyone and thier auntie, even Lennon, agreed it was a clear and obvious hand ball. If it was offside, then wis setbackhy wasn;t the referee told at the time and an offside dscision indicated. Saying all that, a good performance all round apart from Dessers finishing, Have no doubt, we are winning this league despite this setback. Trust in Clement and celebrate the TREBLE come the end of the steson.

Good, maybe he fancies taking Dessers, Lammers and Danilo off our hands. We won't be hard to deal with.

80mins gone when the wife walks in and asks why I'm in such a foul mood. In response I tell her "I've been watching this absolute dross for 80mins whilst waiting for the football to start. Hats off to young McCausland for his play today for showing those pretenders in our team how to play against what was a very poor ST Mirren team.

Couldn't get a ticket for the game - thank fuck - kudos to all our fans inside the stadium in freezing temps. watching that shite from us tonight. Sitting at home watching on telly, few beers/whisky, nice and warm expecting a comfortable 4/5 nil win. Delusional or what? Only player getting pass marks was Butland who lost 1 goal but apparently also made one save, the other was basically a passback. Shockingly we had two, yes two shots on target, one that went into the back of the net via a post. Passes that were too short or too long, play that was reminicent of Beale, slow, sideways and backwards. 5mins added on time and Aris looked more likely to score, we were pedestrian. Absolutely a shocking display from so-called professionals. Conference League here we come and if you think silverware is coming in December, then think again.
