There was a similar one that WAS a foul. There was one though that he got lucky with the ref seeing something that wasn't there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he did ok after a shaky start, with a couple of particularly good blocks/tackles. That miss will haunt him for a while, though....

Blues Brother 1,147 Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 Big Rob was good today. Don't think he did much wrong and did a lot good. Hill was also decent. Very good in the air. Won almost every high ball. The main problem today was midfield. Lacking pace and not direct enough. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes mate .We were playing Accies who had 11 men behind the ball for 90% of the game .Kiernan is a good player in these situations pinging the passes from side to side ,driving into the space .

james_85 665 Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 fucking liability anytime he goes near the ball.I did think he was a player last year and thought he was better than Wilson. I don't know if the cup final has seriously effected him but at times the crowd get on his back and it can't be doing good for his confidence Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turnberry18 3,204 Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 This thread is a good illustration into how the role of the CB is mainly a thankless task- he can play 95% of a game well, make one error, and have a poor game. The amount of times the ball came into our half of the field and Kiernan was there to intercept was amazing, he won every ball. He kept his shape well, kept the defensive line well, and yet had a poor game. Even the error he made shouldn't have led to a goal, the ball should have been dealt with after that mistake. Kiernan had a good game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiernan had a good game. I really wish they had defensive stats for it. Like how many intercepts made and so on. Because exactly like you said, a defenders entire game can be determined by 1 visible mistake. And they're only noticed when they do make mistakes.

King Jela 21,683 Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 Thought he was fine defensively it's when he had the ball that he was giving me the fear. At least one more centre back is still an absolute must though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He made maybe 3 very clear mistakes today that resulted in the opposition getting the ball, but everyone was guilty of that today. Also to his credit he had a fair share of chances, very nearly salvaged the game for us. But impressed with was shown by him today. I hope he continues this standard. Didn't do a lot wrong but then again did very little full stop. Wasn't the worst today by no means, Niko was a passenger, Miller didn't get involved much at all, wee Barrie looked promising first half but after taking a few sore ones done nothing much second half. O'Halloren looked lively once he came on and I'd I'd like to see him start on Tuesday with Dodoo through the middle Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RFCRobertson 11,794 Posted August 7, 2016 Author Share Posted August 7, 2016 His chance Obviously the lad isn't a striker and he it was more of a natural reaction rather a strikers reaction.

Same with Tav, people are hellbent on making them out to be bad players. Tav could score a hat trick and clear 4 goals of the line and still be called shite cause he missed out on one tackle.
