I demand answers as to why our crap manager has only managed to coach the crap team to score a measly 4 goals against 10 men in 1 half of football, And do they feel that this is acceptable.
Otherwise I demand a public enquiry.

Sack him. Can’t believe we only scored once in the second
We love Dunfermline We do!

Ha ha what a fud!
Playing against 10 men is far easier than playing against 11.
As soon as Partick went to 10 and we scored there was no coming back but just damage limitation after that.

So often it gets said that playing against 10 men is harder than 11, but there's a truth to this particular football cliche.
Why is this? Because the team reduced in numbers is forced to adopt a more defensive approach, switching to counter attack football, which can catch out an over committed opponent
The development of zonal marking also works in favour of the 10 man side, by protecting players from being exposed in a one v one duel.

A pal of mine today told me about a game at White Hart lane in which Spurs led 10 man Manchester City 3-0 at half-time. The 10 men rallied to win 4-3!

No, I wasn't suggesting it does. Just thought it was quite an amazing piece of football trivia, Playing against 10 men is not necessarily a cake walk all the same.

Would much rather be playing against 10 men and a penalty goal up after 5 mins than the other way round

Playing against 10 men can be tough if they have something to hang on to, ie are drawing or winning, but if they're behind and have to commit men forward to try and get something from the game it's usually easy to exploit the extra space you have.

Wee eck ...... Good point.
Big difference playing against 10 men camped in their own half & 10 men chasing a game.

Partick went down to 10 far to early in the game to do anything.
I would have walked out the stadium at that point.

Well he got sent off because of our pressure, which believe it or not is a skill.
Hard to believe EEP, but it's true- you will have to hold fire until Tuesday now.

Thought we did the right thing not changing the game plan when a goal and man up.
It is often tempting to lose your focus and go gung ho in these situations but we didn't need to. Keep possession and break them down and the rewards came.
If you only turn up to moan then do it elsewhere
