According to Dodds in his post match interview, the ref said the red card was for Welsh raking his studs down the player’s Achilles. Should’ve gone to Specsavers!

Given where the foul took place, between the ref, linesman and fourth official they should be getting that decision right.

That was a poor game of football and I think the red card did us a favour.

It was a great bit of work for the goal, but Partick had the best of slim pickings until then and it came against a run of play where they were marginally less awful than us.

The injustice* of the red card gave the team, and fans, a cause to get behind and everyone battled to hold on to the lead.

*I don't like the whole professional foul thing.  Just a more acceptable phrase we like to throw out when it's our own player who has cheated.  Not arguing that the decision by the ref was right (based on current rulebook, but if you make a conscious decision to commit a deliberate foul, then you run the risk of a sending off.  Players should be chastised for that kinda play, not defended.  Up there with simulation in my book.

I agree with that. It was a cynical and unnecessary foul, but we see them in almost every game and normally a yellow at worst.

It needs to be dealt with consistently, and the red card last night was out of step with how these things are typically sanctioned. And why was it ok for Tiffoney to shove Welsh in the chest?

All good posts but this one is more succinct. The Tin Tin lookalike should have been showed yellow (by the rules) but that would have been harsh. However I didnt rate that as a professional foul or taking one for the team. Tin  Tin was in his own half and going nowhere dangerous. Welsh  amongst others, especially Carson, had been revved up by his antics and it was probably an attempt to wind him up even more.

The TV pictures show a different picture to the one Irvine had in a split second.

When he becomes a more mature official he will no doubt calmly speak to both his lino and fourth official to see if they agree with his initial thoughts. Mature referees normally take their time before calmly showing the red card.

To me he over reacted and hopefully he will have the courage to realise that the tackle was not as his mind first thought.

That would account for why Tiffoney was on the deck for ages getting treatment then instead of jumping straight up, grabbing his hand bag and shoving Welsh in the chest like a little girl.

The fact we are still debating the red card for that foul just shows the real lack of refereeing talent coming through now.

Absolute joke of a decision.

Between what should be a difficult away game at Morton and the final home game with Dundee we are quite capable of taking 3 points from all the other games in-between those two. It's pity there's not more opportunity to take points off the teams above us competing for the play-off places but plenty of them will be taking points off each other in the run-in. It will be close and tight but I've got a more confident feeling that it is now doable after that great fighting 3 points last night - well done all

Better look at the goal

And THAT save
