    He's actually been fine since that final. Think he realised he couldn't keep getting away with shafting us.

    It's the GFA's 'Gold watch' - 'Here you are, Craig, in respect of your service to Scottish Football you get to **** Hibs one last time' !

    He's one of the officials charged with assigning refs to fixtures. It's his going away present to himself.

    The paranoia about CT reffing our games is incredible! He has been fine the last few seasons we've had him.

    He was the ref in the 2-2 comeback game at the PBS in 2016 which led to the money-spinning replay which led to that day in May.

    Its a flinkin awful decision to give him this fixture, paranoia or no paranoia, he has only been decent because he was under scrutiny and had a refereeing career to look after !! after this game he has nothing to lose ....so watch this space for a finale from him in the realms of the cup final ..... ..

    Exactly, he has been OK the last 6 years but I would not be surprised if he had a swansong to ****** us up.

    If our current hibs team don’t beat that sorry shower next week, it won’t be Craig Thomson’s fault.

    My assumption has always been that he's not a cheat, just hugely incompetent. (Paul) Hanlon's razor in action.

    I don't care how "fine" Thomson has been refereeing Hibs matches since that awful cup final. I'll never forgive him for the way he completely failed to officiate fairly during that cup final.

    It might be - you could argue it was the ref's fault we didnae beat them at New Year. I'd agree with the opinions expressed that he has been ok for us since the 2012 final though - which just further convinces me that he cheated that day (though it was so blatant I don't need any persuasion).

    Yes Thomson was absolutley murder in a game 6 years ago, all things considered since then I think he’s been one of the best consistent refs we’ve had in decency years. Collum, Beaton and Madden would have been 10x worse

    No need to assume anything - statistical analysis proved he cheated us over a number of years.

    So much so the evening news picked up on a straight 8 game losing run when he reffed.

    I think we’ve had him 3 times in the last two years. There’s precious little evidence that he’s suddenly become a competent referee.

    Do they still give the refs choice of matches when they stand down? It doesn’t sit well that he has been assigned that the last home match at tynecastle.
