I can't agree with the earlier summary. Yes, QP started the better side, but thgat only lasted 10mins. By the time Lewis put us in front, it was an overdue goal - we'd got in behind them 3 or 4 times, varied play with passing between their lines and occasional through balls oor over the top. They had a couple of incursions, and Kev forced to make one excellent save, but otherwise we took the first half.
Then we had another slow start to the 2nd half (getting to be a bad habit) before Euan Murray's red card changed the game firmly in QP's favour...
At 1-2, it looked all over. But the manager's brave and astute changes gave us a chance, they decided to try to sit on their lead, and we took advantage big-time.
Our comeback so late was a thing of legend, however. There is something special about this squad of players....

And a theatrical manoeuvre to win a penalty. Soft but glad it went our way

Dont think anyone could dispute the red card seeing it on vid but how it was done is the issue

Ref had a clear view of the incident and gave out a yellow to Murray and QP player for lifting his hands only to be called over by the assistant.After a discussion ref dished out a red.

As for the penalty,yes theatrical fall but still contact.If that happened outside the box its a free kick

I really don’t understand the challenge from Murray, he better appreciate that his teammates dug him out a huge hole, we also now have him missing for what? 2 games? Which we could do without considering our injury list.

I’m not convinced by the penalty either as struggling to see any contact, what you can say for sure is the defenders’ attempt at tackle, lazily dangling a leg in the air is awful!

Think McGill’s ball in for Hamilton needs a mention, pinpoint accurate as it needed to be.

Great result, great resilience to battle back

Regards the penalty, I didn't see it as particularly theatrical. It doesn't take much of a "tap" tackle to send you flying when you are in full flight. Have personally experienced it in football and rugby. Anyway the ref was very close by and didn't hesitate to award it and neither was there much in the way of protest from Queens players. Just accept it and move on (not often we get the rub of the green!

Yellow jersey and blue shorts. Sporting a beard. Imperious in the midfield. Can only be one man.... the late Brazilian captain Socrates?

Where we were housed at Hampden which was a fair bit away from the pitch thats what seem to have happened but watching the highlights I disagree with myself and stand corrected
