Not in anyway excusing anything or indicating it had any material impact on the outcome however thought it was very strange that both our and Dundees game didn’t start at the same time in the second half. Seemed like their game was about 6 or 7 mins behind ours. When we were one up they were absolutely going for it putting extra strikers on etc. Once they heard the final result from Fir park they still had 8 mins or so to play and subsequently and rightly from their perspective then were able to sit on it and go to five at the back keeping the ball in the corner etc. Something doesn’t seem right about that as should have both been playing at the same time pretty much. Also if we had won they had 8 mins or so to score so would have been still possible to score. Maybe a minor point all things considered

Delete this post. Absolutely embarrassing. We don’t deserve top 6 we have been horrid for most of the season.

Assume you never read the first line 😂 i didn’t say we deserved top 6 though clearly we did with ref decisions we have had. Just thought it unusual games didn’t start at same time in the second half think that would have happened in a real league.

That wouldn’t happen anywhere as far as I’m aware.

The games will kick off at the same time, they won’t delay second halves from starting so that they’re all at the same time though.

If our first half finished with 2 mins added on but another game had a bad injury and ended up with 15 minutes added on at the end of the first half we couldn’t sit there and have a half hour half time.
