Absolutely shocking challenge from Main, should have been a red.

 

I must admit I don't know the rules well enough to understand if Hedges should have been red or yellow, does it depend on it being intentional? It's a stick on pen, but not sure it was intentional - although it was cute enough. Daft thing to do anyhow.

Only a red when no attempt is made to play the ball under double jeopardy rules.  He tried to pull the player back and clipped him.

Maybe its just me, but if McInnes "takes the knee" at the start of the game, he should have the decency and take his hands out of his pockets. Thus it looked more like a stretching excercise ...

 

Decent enough 1st half, took us some time to get our game going, be we were alreday in it before the penalty. Now put them to the sword early on and keep them there.

 

First time I looked at Aberdeen`s Wright (who is rumoured to be a target) and he seems decent enough.

Another unacceptable display from Beaton at pittodrie. Failing to send off Main was ridiculous. And what about the assistant referee? Did he not see anything?

Sadly it's just another terrible display of officiating which we have all come to expect now, just need to keep pressing for more goals, and forget about that.

Game management.

 

Do not allow Beaton the opportunity to level this up ie either reducing us to ten men or awarding Aberdeen a penalty. Give it 20 minutes hard in the second half and get at least the second. Easy street awaits. Come off it, and Aberdeen begin to win free kicks, then  we are playing their game of set pieces.

I was laughing, looked like McInnes was doing a curtsy!

I'll settle for the same level of performance as the 1st half.

Davis is bossing midfield like a 20 year old. What first half he’s had.

Decent 1st half, 1 goal lead and playing against 10 men. 

 

Need to finish job off in 2nd half.

[PoohBear 1,074]

Honestly I thought we were slow for the first 15 mins with Aberdeen pressing us high. But for the ten mins before the pen we really took control.

 

I'd like an early goal for us in the 2nd half, no nervousness at the end of the game please!
