Thomson

[JimBHibees]

How could Boyle be offside when Thomson had played the ball forward from a square pass.

Awful ref as per. Didn't think it was a pen the one we got, but Hanlon one definitely was headlock.

It's offside

Can’t believe I’m saying this but he was better than most of the refs we have had at ER this season.

Actually agree. Thought he was pretty balanced. We got away with just as much as St Johnstone.

Not if the ref plays it forward.

We 110% should have had a penalty in the first half. The Boy pretty much took Hanlons top off.

Thomson was ok today, for once we can't blame him for our own teams failings.

He was presumably in an offside position when the ball was played across. Thomson's intervention was irrelevant.

Thomson wasn't the reason we lost today, but he's up there with the most incompetent refs in Scotland.

How can he stand above a player who's off the pitch and allow him to roll onto the pitch to waste time? I'd be saying "get the hell of my pitch".

Then after Hibs scored the penalty, how can he not try and stop the blatent time wasting by the St. J players. No attempt to try and get play re-started quickly.

True, true and true ! But overall I thought he was ok today. Never ever thought I'd say that, it's worrying in fact.😁

I thought the linesmen were rank today. As they were against Dundee as well.

Scottish officials are just not very good. Nothing much else to say really!

The ball has to be played forward for him to be offside.

[Onceinawhile]

Only thing that annoyed me was rocky complained about a corner that was given, but did so by standing in his box with his hands out. Of course the ref has a word with him.

Then we get a corner and their keeper sprints out to the lion shouting at him and... nothing.

Are you not thinking of golf, where he’s a natural hazard, or something 😉

I've never really thought of Thomson as natural. A hazard, sure....

Tbh, by that time all my faculties had shut down through cold.... so wtf knows?

I'm one of CT's biggest critics however, apart from a couple of mi or things I thought he did okay today.
Btw, you no idea how hard it is for me to say that.

That was never ever a corner

I know, but that's not his fault, it's the fault of the lino.

I think the ball has to go forward. Thomson is part of the field of play so although it may not have started off a forward pass it ended up that way and Boyle was offside. Can't say I thought that at the game but when I had thought about it pretty sure it was a good decision. I thought Thomson was one of teh better refs I have seen this season and I can't stand him. The only issue I had with him was not booking the dive in the first half and not dealing with St Js time wasting particularly after we scored. He let the teams go at it and gave as few fouls as possible. Will McGinn's booking mean he is suspended for one of the big games coming up

It did go forward, though. Albeit it was deflected by CT. In that respect it's no different to it being taken by a massive gust of wind, or an invisible alien.

And it was a penalty. Clear movement of hands towards the ball blocking Boyle's shot.

[Gatecrasher]

We should have had a penalty when the SJ player had Hanlon in a headlock.

Yep stonewaller.

[Skol]

was he offside when Hibs played the ball or Thomson got in the way ? That point is key....

[thebakerboy]

What about the stuck on pen when the no6 had 2 hands over Stokes shoulders and pulled him down in box , he still touched the ball but not as he would have done if not pulled back.

Craig Thomson is a ****ing disgrace. Thank **** he is retiring next season. An absolute bellend of a referee.
