Dunfermlin­e Baffling decisions

- John V Lloyd

VAR. What is it good for? Nothin’! It may be Jim Duffy’s quip but few Pars fans would agree after three inexplicab­le officials’ decisions were complicit in our three consecutiv­e 2-1 defeats.

This culminated in the simply baffling offside decision at a “goal” by Nicky Clark. Taking a diagonal pass from Joe Cardle, he swivelled and instinctiv­ely placed it in the bottom corner. It was surreal to see the flag raised against a backdrop of some sporting Morton fans clapping!

We’ve no home match this month since idle Inverness declined to come here on Saturday. Livingston, desperate to play their postponed festive game, are likely to be rewarded by a much larger travelling Pars support, keen to see our new players.
