I liked the "The linesman was the only man in the stadium that thought it wasn't a goal" quote. :laugh

It was an angry Jimmy Calderwood that emerged to face the press this afternoon after watching his side lose their fourth place spot to Hearts. In a match that turned on two controversial decisions Calderwood refused to be drawn into the controversy. "I have to say I was very disappointed with our first half performance. We gave the ball away too often but after speaking with the lads at the interval I felt we did a lot better after the break. "
Referring to the penalty award for the winning goal, Jimmy said; "I would need to look at it again to make a judgement but a lot of our lads are convinced they were hard done by. They reacted well however and really took the game to Hearts."

Calderwood was also very guarded in his comments about the disallowed goal simply observing; "The linesman was the only man in the stadium that thought it wasn't a goal. We were pressing them all the way to the end and it's a decision like that that costs you the game. I thought we worked really hard and we certainly deserved to take something from the match."
