KillieBison Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 Poor show from Boyd I say. If it was 2-1 fair enough but 4-1 with 10mins to go? Give the lad his hattrick... -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KTIDanny85 Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 I agree. Would've been nice to see Brophy get a hatrick but Boyd might've been thinking about money, esp being near Christmas. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would've been nice to see Brophy get a hatrick but Boyd might've been thinking about money, esp being near Christmas. I hope that's tongue-in-cheek! I initially thought it was a shocker from Boyd too in fairness, even if he is designated spot-kick taker - Brophy is a young lad trying to build some confidence, so it would have been nice to see him take it. But... I guess Boyd is just making him earn his place. Being the old-head, designated penalty-taker and team captain he's certainly well within his right to be taking it. And I may be making excuses for Boyd here, but giving him the real benefit of the doubt, he was maybe keeping Brophy hungry. If he gets the hat-trick, does it go to his head and he gets cocky? Or stays on 2 goals, and made to work hard again next week? Regardless, great to see them win at home finally!

ki11ie Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 Boyd is the penalty taker, professionalism for him to take it. although would been nice for brophy to get a hat trick 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bullitt Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 Unless Brophy specifically asked to take it and Boyd refused then there's not any issue here at all. Brophy has hardly started a game in his professional career and scored 3 goals in two starts... I doubt for one minute he's sulking about it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ki11ie Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 Steve Clarke got it in one. "Boyd takes penalties no matter what. Not many players want to take a penalty at 1-0 down" 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boyd is our designated penalty taker and it is correct that he took it. Brophy had a great game and got the rewards for his hard work. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz of the 20/20 Posted December 9, 2017 Report Share Posted December 9, 2017 At the time thought it was a bit off but so be it. I was more impressed that Clarke didn’t care less if they were on a hat trick and subbed them both for the teams benefit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
