Callum Davidson admits Andy Considine’s red card ruined his day after St Johnstone’s fighting show against Celtic.
The Perth boss was frustrated at the injury-time dismissal of the centre-back. Considine was shown a straight red card by ref David Dickinson for tugging back Celtic sub Oh Hyeon-gyu and now misses the vital Premiership game against Dundee United on Saturday week. Davidson said: “Celtic can sometimes open you up, but they had three chances and scored three.
“It was a wee bit hard to take for the players, but they didn’t put their heads down. We got a great goal from Drey [Wright]. In the second half I said can we stay in the game? Can we ask questions? I thought we did that. Then there was a goal at the end and Andy’s sending off, that annoyed me a little bit. Not just because of the game, but because of next week where we will miss Andy. As a player, you don’t think like that. But as a manager you think of bigger pictures. I thought that put a dampener on it. I haven’t really seen the red card back. He’s pulled his jersey, but I don’t know who’s coming covering.
