Match of the day do the same format but they pause between replays or stop the action to highlight whatever point the pundit is trying to make. The sport scene coverage outside the highlights of the games is just a mess.

It’s a pet hate. The post highlights replays packages move too quick for anyone to comment on them too. They’ll start their point on the first replay, and by the time they’ve made their point, the footage has moved on to about the 4th highlight.

… having seen the highlights, and now also seen the stats, it maybe wasn’t as bad as I first thought. Majority of goals were certainly avoidable. Yes, there should have been a hand ball call, but also Motherwell should have had a penalty for Stephenson clattering someone instead of clearing…

Paul got done out a point in Career Path! 2nd last one may have been a January signing but the season he said he signed was right enough!! #sackthequizmaster

Absolutely this. Very frustrating to watch, we were most effective going forward on the break at the start of the season and some of last, we miss so many opportunities by holding the ball up, either with the goalie or unnecessary passes at the back. We were misfiring all over the park yesterday.

On the plus side though, we played badly and didn’t lose, which is a good sign. Important to get a positive result against Motherwell next week given the run of games on the horizon.

Adegboyega and Stephenson were a wee bit dodgy in places, particularly in the first half, but grew into it a wee bit. Crossing… not seen crossing and corners that bad for a while, needs ALOT of work. No arguments about the penalty, tho did think dalby had a shoot for him being wiped out.

I’m no big fan of XG as a stat, but it does show the quality of chances created.. and that tells its own story today…

I’m in the George fox, so didn’t even see the first one other than holt had gone down to be honest, but seeing it on telly, I just don’t get how it can be argued it’s not a pen. The Walton one I didn’t even consider endangering an opponent at the game tbh.

I’m amazed they didn’t try find a reason why the 2nd goal should have counted. McCann(t) having to praise united in the round up through gritted teeth was quite amusing tho.

The only one that’s maybe debatable is the Walton red card, it could be argued it was reckless, but not a goal scoring opportunity. Unlike st mirrens red which was definitely that. And Holt was kicked for the 1st penalty clearly.
