Gribz 743 Posted May 25, 2017 Share Posted May 25, 2017 0-0 probably makes Hamilton slight favourites for the return. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rousseau 9,497 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 (edited) I flicked over for the last 20 minutes. There's so much animosity in the stands; the least wee decision and there was a chorus of boos; horrible wee club. I thought when Dundee Utd went down to 10-men Hamilton would hammer it home, but then 2 players got injuries with no subs left, so they were in effect down to 9-men! Apparently Hamilton were on top in the first half. Edited May 26, 2017 by Rousseau 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Whosthedado 1,520 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Did anyone see the two bookings for Murray? Only seen the second but it was a scandalous decision to be fair - what a shame 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 3,287 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 Reading on FF, Imrie got an elbow in the face early on and the Arab doing it was lucky to be on the park, could also have been a penalty. Lets hope the Accies will do better than Falkirk at home ... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uilleam 5,497 Posted May 26, 2017 Share Posted May 26, 2017 (edited) One wishes that The Acas go through, anything to hasten what one hopes will be the demise of that nasty outfit. Edited May 26, 2017 by Uilleam 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ian1964 10,448 Posted May 26, 2017 Author Share Posted May 26, 2017 Simon Murray is free to play in the Premiership play-off final second leg after Dundee United appealed against his second yellow card in the first. The striker was booked twice for simulation in Thursday's 0-0 draw with Hamilton Academical at Tannadice. But his appeal will not be heard until next Thursday, meaning the 25-year-old will not be suspended on Sunday. Murray appeared to be fouled in the penalty box by Scott McMann before falling with 13 minutes remaining. Confirming their appeal, United said in a club statement that they had "subsequently received notification from the Scottish FA that Simon will be available to play in Sunday's second leg". Immediately after the match, United manager Ray McKinnon had said: "I can only say I'm very disappointed with the penalty decision. "At the time, we thought it was a penalty. We've seen it back now and it's obviously been confirmed there was a penalty." Referee Steven McLean appeared to receive guidance from his assistant before showing United's top scorer a second yellow. "The referee, Steven, he's made a really poor decision," said McKinnon. "I don't think he's had any help from his linesman there at all. It's very clear-cut. "All you can ask for in big games like this and good referees like Steven is to get the big decisions right because that could've really impacted on us, totally. Murray had scored in all four play-off games ahead of Thursday's goal-less draw and McKinnon was determined to make sure he played at Hamilton. "I think that's absolutely crucial because there'd be an injustice if he wasn't able to play in the game on Sunday for us," said the manager, whose side are chasing promotion after one season in the Championship Hamilton manager Martin Canning, whose side are looking to avoid relegation, said he "didn't see" the McMann challenge on Murray. "If we go and take our chances in the first half - we had two or three real good opportunities - it could be irrelevant," said Canning. "There's no goals, but there's people hobbling about at the end of the game for us, obviously a sending off for them."Now, it's going to be a difficult second leg - one we need to make sure we compete in." Accies will be without suspended captain Mikey Devlin, who missed the first leg through injury, and midfielder Darian MacKinnon, who is also banned for the second leg. Veteran midfielder Massimo Donati and winger Dougie Imrie also ended the game with injuries. "We'll need to assess the injuries," added Canning. "We've got Darian definitely out and now we've got Massimo and Dougie potentials, so we need to wait and see.""We were down to 10 men. Effectively, we could've had a penalty to go 1-0 up, so the whole tie would've been different." 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
