Brown collecting his loser's medal.

[Jim44]

Now I know he would have been disappointed and feeling down, but did anyone notice his body language and attitude when he led Celtic up to collect their medals. He walked along the passageway without looking at the presentation party, ignored them and stared directly in front of himself. He grabbed his medal without any acknowledgement or thanks or even hesitating for a second and walked on petulantly. I never liked his attitude when he was with us and his behaviour today marks him as an ignorant, classless idiot.

Scott Brown is a fanny.

He's now 'Celtic-minded' and a complete and utter bawbag.

[Wembley67]

Don't see anything wrong with it in the slightest, he captained (i think) a side to a defeat. I would be very pissed off as well.

He had to walk up the steps with hun hoardes shouting abuse at him. As far as I could see he kept his cool. He'd just lost a final ffs. OP a bit too critical imo.

[Jonnyboy]

Over the years I've been unfortunate enough to watch a few Hibs teams making that climb for the runners up medals. Can't recall a single one of them stopping for a chat and a laugh and if they had you can imagine the reaction.

[Winston Ingram]

He's with Celtic now so no surprise. It was probably a conspiracy of some sort

As for Brown. His career has died on his erse there. I really wish he went to England. I think it's safe to say Celtic haven't got their £5.5m worth out of him which makes me very happy. the fact that they are spewing a reported £30k a week on him makes me even happier

Saw nothing I haven't seen before at a cup final from a loser! Nothing wrong with his behaviour IMO.

He should be told he's in the footsteps of the likes of Billy McNeill and he should grow up a bit.

:agree:

He has stagnated big time, if not gone backwards, at Celtc.

He really needed to go down south and test himself at a better level, with Celtc bar a few European games every season he is playing the same dross he was playing when was at Hibs. Unfortunately yet another young Scottish player showed a total lack of ambition or a preference for cash over football and he has paid for it.

[Scouse Hibee]

He should be told he's in the footsteps of the likes of Billy McNeill and he should grow up a bit.

:confused: Why? Would Billy McNeill have had a laugh whilst collecting his losers medal and then have stayed on the steps to give every Rangers player a pat on the back before cartwheeling down the steps shouting it's the taking part that matters!!!

[CropleyWasGod]

He should be told he's in the footsteps of the likes of Billy McNeill and he should grow up a bit.

This will be the same Billy McNeill who collected his loser's medal in the 73 Cup Final, with a face like thunder, and then stuck up 8 fingers to the Celtic faithful to signify the number of leagues they has won on the trot. Classy.

[Jim44]

I'm not suggesting this. All I'm saying is that it's only common courtesy and decency to at least glance in the direction of someone who is handing something to you and possibly addressing you in some way. Despite the almost unanimous ' defence' here of Brown's pig-ignorance, I personally think he's a classless individual............... so there. :greengrin

[Leith_Hibee]

I agree with the OP. There is being disappointed but not to aknowledge those dishing out the medals is the stuff of school kids.

I think you can tell a lot about someone by how they deal with disappointment. He needs to man up.

[Tynie01011973]

Can't believe you even bothered to watch it that far tbh.

Couldn't care which of the two won.

[CallumLaidlaw]

Yip, turned over the second the FT whistle went. Had no interest in seeing either of them celebrate.

[millarco]

Agree with the OP. Thought the least he could do was acknowledge those who were giving out the medals, would expect that as a matter of courtesy never mind an act as captain. I was also under the impression that teams normally waited on the pitch to see the winners collect the trophy which Celtc didn't do, though that may not be standard practice anymore.

I was at one of Celtc's pre-season friendlies in Boston in the summer where they won a friendly trophy, and thought Brown's attitude then was poor as well. Having a laugh and effectively taking the mick with O'Dea when collecting the trophy, again showing no respect to those presenting the awards. A classless individual on the football pitch IMO, and one that certainly isn't fulfilling his undoubted football potential.

[Sir David Gray]

I didn't see the presentation as I turned it off as soon as the final whistle went but if the OP's description of what happened is accurate then that is a poor show by Brown.

I hear people saying that they don't see anything wrong because he's just captained a side to a cup final defeat against his club's biggest rivals. However, there is a way to lose, a graceful way to react to a defeat that is appropriate from someone who holds the status that Scott Brown currently has.

As many on here will know, I am a massive tennis fan and I've just watched Rafael Nadal lose to Novak Djokovic in the final of a pretty big tournament. At the end of the match, Nadal looked Djokovic in the eye as they met at the net and congratulated him in what seemed to be a genuine manner.

At last year's US Open final, the roles were reversed and Nadal beat Djokovic and again at the end of the match, Djokovic came round to Nadal's side of the net and hugged him and congratulated him on his victory.

No-one likes to lose, especially competitive people like sportsmen, if they did then they are in the wrong job. However, I've often heard it said that the true measure of someone is how they respond to setbacks and defeats.

Winning, and reacting to victories, is easy. It's a bit more difficult to react to a defeat. No-one would have expected Scott Brown to go up those stairs today as captain of the losing team and have a big cheesy grin on his face but, at the same time, that's not saying that it's understandable or justifiable to completely blank people who are presenting you with a medal.

It's rude, it's disrespectful and it's unprofessional.

Pretty much agree with all that. I can't remember who said it but I know it was a top sportsman who, looking back over his career, remarked that even the most successful and talented in their field won't win everything they enter but that is always important to remain dignified in both victory and defeat. Furthermore, it is how one deals with adversity that separates the great from the good.

I may have missed them but I've never hear this 'bitterness' argument when threads pop up to slaughter Katie, Stewart, Caldwell etc. The way some Hibs fans still hold a torch for Brown is slightly cringey IMO.

[Danderhall Hibs]

I can't believe he didn't have a scarf and one of the party hats on when he went up to get his medal. He should've just been happy to be there.

And another thing he should've been laughing and joking with the nobodies that they have to shake hands with before they get their medal as well. I can't believe he wasn't happy to meet these people.

Show me a good loser, and I'll show you a loser. It was precisely this sort of thing that made Scott Brown one of my favourite players. Give me that attitude in front of a cheesy clean cut Davie Weir any day.

That said, I know there are players that can mask their hurt and still be sporting, and I take my hat off to them. At the end of the day though, it is winning that is the most important thing at the professional level.

[Sammy7nil]

Don't see anything wrong with it in the slightest, he captained (i think) a side to a defeat. I would be very pissed off as well.

Well if a Hibs captain did not acknowledge the people giving out medals and could not even be bothered look at them let alone thanking them then I dont think he would be the correct person to representing Hiberninan as captian.
You have to show class and dignity in defeat aswell as victory I would expect him to show disappointment but manners costs Nothing.

Do you mean Weir the guy with the CUP lifted aloft and Broon the one trapsing off with his losers medal :confused::confused:

Does not real fit does it :wink:

You can't win them all as history proves I would like the Hibs captain to be the one who could win and lose with pride and dignity.

[Sammy7nil]

What a poor comment to make the "nobodies" probably think exactly the same as torn faced Broon theyprobably dont want ot be there. Yet they take the time to smile and offer their thanks for the game, the very least he can do is contain his disappointment for 10 seconds.

[Albion Hibs]

I dont agree with Browns attitude, or some of the comments above that its okay because he is the Captain of the loosing team, gutted etc etc.

There is still such a thing as dignity, a possession which any captain should possess. I dont think anyone would expect to see him laughing, high fiving, or starting a Mexican wave with the medal committee, but at very least he could have shaken a hand or two.

Perhaps if he had shown a bit more of a grown up attitude to things the ****bag followers in the crowd would show the same.

He agitated for a move, put a transfer request in, lied to the fans and only settled down once he had been promised a move. The only difference between him and Katie was that Katie had a paper column and didn't put in a transfer request.

I'd rather have a good player playing for Hibs than against us but, seeing as Brown plays for Celtic, that's sort of irrelevant.

Is it any wonder the lad was upset...after all he did win the trophy with a big club in 2007 and the celebrations with the world's greatest fans from Edinburgh will never ever be bettered...He won with the best now he has to be part of the rest.

He aint changed a bit.

If he aint your favourite player because he joined celtic, fair enough, but there aint no need for that. Scotty stuck around and led us to our first trophy in 16 years. Will always remember him as a great hibs player.

[marinello59]

I don't think he did. Brown handed one in straight after a defeat at ER which was reported at the time. If KT did make an official transfer request then it was never made public.

Thomson still to this day says it was Brown and not him that handed in the transfer request..

People are quick to say he "stuck around to win us a trophy" but had he kept his mush shut and not disgruntled the dressing room we would have been back at hampden for a Scottish cup final rather than getting horsed from Dunfermline in a replay!

Thomson did NOT hand in a transfer request, don't get me wrong he had numerous faults but we cant just make stuff up. Only Brown handed in a request. The fans that get me are the ones that boo Whittaker when he comes back to Easter Road yet still have a soft spot for Brown. Utterly bizzare. There clearly are quite a few coz folk round about me in the East were giving Whitty pelters on the first day of the season yet you could hear a pin drop in the stadium any time Brown has been on the ball whilst playing for Celtic. The only difference between them is that Whitty left with a lot more dignaty imo. For what's its worth, both helped us win our first trophy in 16 yrs and should be remembered fondly for that imho.

I dont boo Whitty, he is about the only one who has left I dont, he was a model professional at ER and as a good player for Hibs but with albiet limited ability he chased the cash on offer but has played in a European Final, won medals, not once has he ever bad mouthed Hibs or made me dislike him other than the fact he plays for one of them.

So whilest I dont really care what he gets up to I am somewhat indifferent towards him and would never speak ill of the guy/

The likes of Brown, Thomson, Caldwell etc can all GTF thoughv:faf:

His reaction shows he is competitive and hates losing - nothing wrong with that. A quality some of our players in our long winless run could have done with.

A wee difference perhaps, but an important one...

:agree:

He has stagnated big time, if not gone backwards, at Celtc.

He really needed to go down south and test himself at a better level, with Celtc bar a few European games every season he is playing the same dross he was playing when was at Hibs. Unfortunately yet another young Scottish player showed a total lack of ambition or a preference for cash over football and he has paid for it.

Which is something he could only have done if he got the chance to by another club coming in for him before Celtic. The only other club to come in with an offer for him were [IIRC] Reading and by the time they came in, SB was already at Parkhead to sign for the great unwashed.

Who knows - perhaps if another club had come in earlier in the proceedings things may have been different?
