We were all saying at half time that we'd take a draw. Really dogged performances from everyone but especially McGowan, Want, Gogic and Scott Martin, who was deservedly MOTM. What a solo run he had in added time! Bet they don't show that tomorrow. Their keeper had a couple of cracking saved from Oggy and almost kept out his penalty. A massive win and great scenes at the end.
Mickel was silly, two bookable fouls and Collum got that right. The Want booking was ridiculous, it was a perfect tackle. Felt Moyo was unlucky to get subbed, thought it should have been Lewis but he had a couple of good moments near the end.
1,122 Accies fans, and while they usually count all ST holders anyway, it's likely many of them were actually there today after midweek.
The above was to be my own post but SC covers almost all of it. Only things to add IMO, are:-
Blair Alston- Still a major disappointment for me. Don't see what he brings to the team. Anonymous for much of the game. He always looked a talented player in other teams, but, to date, that talent is still to show in an Accies shirt.
David Moyo;_ Looked really disprited when subbed, as the very obvious was Lewis Smith, who was too lighweight for a big, strong, experienced and physical Killy defence for the whole game.
Will Collar :- Thought he did well when he came on and added a presence to the midfield.
David Templeton :- Always a threat, but sometimes just a wee bit selfish in posession when a pass would be a better option.
Finally, why did Collum let Flatfoot off with second yellow, when KB booted the ball right out the ground at our end at the penalty award? Was it because the game was stopped at that stage? Someone please clarify, as we had a player (Martin?) yellow carded for the same offence last game.
Great six points and pressure is now on County, Midden and JamTarts. The last five games of the Split are, as said before, going to be humdingers:):)
