Hibs Women

[Brightside]

Are managers supposed to act differently at women’s games? It appears we want managers shouting at officials in the men’s game?
Brian Graham has been excellent for Thistle and has inspired many young girls and improved their games. He’s maybe just fed up with constantly poor refs.

Easy for Rangers in the end with a 4-1 win in the SWPL Cup final but Partick gave them a real game first half and scored a cracking equaliser. Rangers are a very fine side tho.

Good crowd and atmosphere.

It’s a shame that the two arsecheeks have ruined the women’s game up here as well. It’ll be one of the two of them winning everything from here on in and it’s a crying shame.

Yes, it is a shame but hopefully the more girls are inspired to take up the game the more chance clubs like ours have of remaining relatively competitive. I was at Meadowbank the other night and the Hibs girls were training. Heartening to see how many were taking part in each age group.

Barton should be compelled to apologise for this. He's always struck me as an utter bell*nd but this is imbecilic stuff from anyone who piled on.

Really hope the girl's career isn't affected by this. She's barely more than a kid and it's tough enough to be a keeper without having to deal with morons like these. Any parent who has supported their child through their development in any sport will understand how low this kind of c**p is.

I know her, as my own daughter played with her in the Scottish youth set up. Strong willed kid with a good family. She will be fine. Joey is just a very odd human being but there are more of them appearing every day.

That's good to hear and it looks like she's getting plenty of support from within the women's game, including from Rangers.

They talk about banning kids from social media. It's (supposed) grown-ups like Barton and any others who think the girl was fair game for bullying who should be banned.

[Pretty Boy]

People trying to grow the women's game must bang their head against a brick wall when they see some of the drivel from Barton this weekend and the number of people backing him up.

What started as a gripe about female commentators in the male game has just become a full on assault on women's football. No one is compelled to like or watch the women's game but what joy is there in slagging it off at every opportunity? His initial (and sadly successful) attempt to instigate a pile on against a young goalkeeper was then followed up with him calling women players replying to him 'sweetheart' and 'love' before rounding it off by referring to 'lesbo ball'. It's like a caricature of the biggest buffoon in a 70s sitcom.

I don't even buy the 'well men get criticised so birds are fair game' line. We are talking about a 17 year old part timer here, she absolutely should be judged to different standards than say Ederson (that's no slight on her, she's a very good young keeper but you can't compare apples and kiwi fruits).

Thankfully the game is continuing to grow and thrive in spite of these dimwits. You wonder if these guys have daughters what they must think if they wanted to approach their dad about getting involved in football. Are they total dinosaurs who will tell them 'it's a man's game' or total hypocrites who support their own kids but titter like overgrown schoolboys at others?

It's not really about him getting joy from it, he's a grifter. Nothing more, nothing less. He's not an idiot and is well aware there is money to be made and an opportunity to be relevant to someone, even if that someone is a complete moron.

Failed in his chosen career so went down another path, football's Laurence Fox essentially.

In so many ways this makes him worse than people who jump on his bandwagon of bullsh*t. He'll be well aware of the fallacy of his public positions, and also well aware of the negative impact it has, but he doesn't care. And the people who follow him are too ignorant to realise that.

That's basically it; social media is a swamp and Barton & his ilk know there's large numbers of bxllends waiting for clickbait like his throwback pxsh. Bullying a 17 year old lassie. Well hard.

That covers it.
The only good thing is that Barton is now totally toxic so he is stuck in that cul de sac of crap forever with an audience of cretins. Game over.

[LewysGot2]

2 late goals for them. Currently 2-1

[Malthibby]

Unlucky, gave Rangers a real game.
Think the throw-in just before their second goal was taken way further up the pitch from where the ball went out.
Play like that for the rest of the season and we can still get 4th.

That was a great effort and a sign of real progress being made

Scotland toiling again in their Euro qualifier against Slovakia. They've really regressed as a side.

No idea why they stage a game like this at Hampden. Soulless place when there's a tiny crowd.

Edit: Just gone 1-0 up.

We were awful. The coach has turned the squad into a very dull watch. Still relying on older players. Bringing in players that hardly get minutes for their club teams. Not much of it makes sense. But the SFA are just playing it lip service so don’t expect much change.

[GreenCastle]

Hearts v Hibs on Friday night - sold out at Oriam. Not sure the capacity of the venue but shame as I'm sure more would want to watch.


Any other ways to watch it ??

It's disappointing. Used to take the kids along with a stack of their school pals to the Scotland women's games at ER a few years back and it was a good watch in a decent atmosphere.

I know they were playing England, but there were circa 35k at the Aviva Stadium last night to watch the Republic of Ireland's women's team compared to 3k at Hampden. Why do the SFA only pay the women's game lip service compared to other associations?

As you say, Martinez Losa doesn't help. He seems a pretty dour, abrasive individual.

Don't take a huge degree of interest in the women's game but have watched a few games mostly tournaments and think the standard is very good at the top level. In terms of Scotland makes no sense to play games at Hampden get them at smaller grounds where a decent atmosphere can still be created. Got to hope the uptake in girls playing is reflected in the quality of coaching and facilities they get. Maybe Scotland should get Shelley back? 🤔

Pretty sure there were not far off 20k at Hampden for a game around about the time they qualified for the World Cup in 2019, so the crowds would show up if the team was performing well. At present though, yes, a much smaller stadium would be more conducive to generating a bit of atmosphere.
