Mention on the Adams thread that he was lucky to stay on last night

Have I misremembered or was the same true in one of the games last season?

Quite astounding that he has only been sent off once in the last 8 seasons. Must have been right on the edge quite a few times.

yeah in the playoff game, was certainly involved in some "excessive" grappling/pulling which would probably have been a caution had he not already been on a caution

We thought he should have been booked after his first foul and should have been off for his second. His first was no different to Lobban`s and he was booked for it.

Last man, goal chance, should have been red not yellow

"Last man"

first man, 5th man, last man... makes ZERO difference in laws of the game there is nothing mentioning last man in laws of the game .)

Absolute hammer thrower

This is Andy Tod`s world and we are lucky to live in it.

Would still have him here.

Rarely misses games, heads everything that comes his way - a combination of him and Abdulai would be incredible.

C'mon Ye Pars!

I thought Donnelly had a good game and has slotted right in.

Have to agree, Ashcroft was one that should have been retained and has more than proved that elsewhere!

Yeah, we definitely 100% just let him go without trying to keep him. True story

I’ve never forgiven the club for refusing to offer George O’Boyle a new contract!

How often does Ash need his head bandaged by the way, I remember more times than not!

Wouldnae have him in a lucky bag, as they used to say. Any centre back who`s so slow that he has to grapple opponents to the ground is not for me. Plankton Thristle are welcome to him.

I think we`re pretty well covered at CB so he`d be lucky to get a game. Lack of pace was always his weakness.

I think I`ve seen Rab C Nesbit without his bandage more often than I`ve seen Ashcroft without his

I think we have struggled to take advantage of his lack of pace in games. Positionally he is good, but if you turn him or when he is running back to his own goals he struggles

Only remember him for the great volley that he scored, can`t recall the opposition!
