AC Milan v Barcelona

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

Ladbrokes will refund all losing 1st scorer bets as a free bet if Messi scores 1st or last tonight.
Not a bad offer.

3 goals against Serie A teams all from the penalty spot.
8 Games in total, not a bad ratio...

Quite fancy Milan to take atleast a point from the first leg.

[Jones28]

So if you put Messi on as first scorer, you win your bet AND get a refund? :greengrin

[hibs4thecup1988]

Technically wouldn't be losing though Jones if he did score eh ;)

[Golden Bear]

Look who the Ref is ------------ none other than Mr Craig Thomson himself. Talk about being out of your depth!

:embarrass

[lyonhibs]

I hope its one of those games where top class European players are left fuming about how an "inexperienced/from a small country/not used to this kind of game" referee absolutely ruins it.

Let the rest of the world in on our suffering.

Apparently that other throbber Willie Stauner is refereeing the Galatasary game. He turns in a stinker there, he'll leave the stadium in about 50 bin liners!!

[VickMackie]

Sweepstake on how many incorrect pens given.

Ill go for one

[adhibs]

should be interesting.

Eh?

[H113EE5]

He'll be fine, we're not playing. :wink::wink:

[Scouse Hibee]

Oh FFS a third class referee from a second class country refereeing a first class game. :wink: :greengrin

[EdinMike]

Will the bookies take money on my bet of "He'll ruin the game" !?

[Treadstone]

I think he is a decent referee when no refereeing a Hibs game.:tin hat: Anyway can't be worse than that ref at the Arsenal-Munich last night, EIGHT bookings.

AC Milan game the commentator just said Craig Thomson is from Edinburgh. We all knew that, at the same time, we were constantly told he was from Paisley. COVER UP EH!

[lyonhibs]

RTS Deux, RSI 2 or SRF Sport.

Commentary in French, Italian or German respectively :greengrin

I recon we should steal it......very Sunshine on Leith!

[Golden Bear]

Could be an interesting night for Mr Thomson. He's already upset the natives!

[Treadstone]

Beat it Boateng ! Yer names Kevin. There is only one Prince and its the purple one from Minneapolis.

[frazeHFC]

1-0 Galatasaray in the other game. Never knew they had Sneidjer and Drogba!

[HH81]

There is a better game on sky sports 3 :-)

[Greendub]

Fox soccer in English :-/

I like the strip, I swear I don't have it...

[nonshinyfinish]

I like the strip, I swear I don't have it...

Looks like a Calippo. :bitchy:

[Greendub]

Calippo's are gid :-)

[nonshinyfinish]

Calippo's are gid :-)

As a tasty frozen snack, aye. As a football top, naw. :na na:

[DarrenSQH]

Strange decisions from the clown with the whistle. How Busquets got booked I have no idea.

[nonshinyfinish]

Woaf. Prince brings the Purple Rain.

[nonshinyfinish]

Wee hand ball in there.

[DarrenSQH]

Imagine this ref getting a call so wrong. Clear handball.

[blackpoolhibs]

Strange decisions from the clown with the whistle. How Busquets got booked I have no idea.

He's a prick, Milan score from a slam dunk pass from Mumtari. He wouldnt know a foul if it smacked him straight on the nose.

[lyonhibs]

Wee hand ball in there.

Cracking assist from the Milan player. If we were playing basketball.

Will be interesting to see how Barca react.

[Hiber-nation]

Wee hand ball in there.

Scotland's finest ref somehow missed it. I suppose he's allowed the odd mistake.

[ronaldo7]

Barca have found their match...














































Craig ***** Thomson

This is what it sounds like when doves cry.

[VickMackie]

There's a picture doing the rounds of a bet slip with a boy waiting for 2-0 Barca and 1-1 in the other game.

[sambajustice]

What an absolute clown!!

How does he get such games, he surely cant be Scotlands best ref??

He's a disgrace and needs to be stripped of, well, being a referee in general!!!

[Treadstone]

Think Silvio had Barca at a bunga bunga party last night.

[danhibees1875]

Seen that. Guy is due a million back if it came in. He'll be raging at Thomson :greengrin

What happened? I'm not able to watch the game tonight.

[nonshinyfinish]

What's the rest of the bet?

[bingo70]

Wasn't a real bet slip, look at the odds, all the games are 100/1, think its a promotion for some offer coral are running just now.

(Assuming we're talking about the same bet slip of course)

[nonshinyfinish]

What happened? I'm not able to watch the game tonight.

Milan player hit a shot, it ricocheted off another Milan player's hand and fell to Prince Boateng, who rattled it in. Lovely finish, but a clear handball.

Was a free to enter promotion Coral were doing, predict every correct score in the quarter finals and win a million poonds.

1 guy down south had 6 out of 6 correct going into tonight.

[nonshinyfinish]

Goooooooooooooooooooooolazo!

[frazeHFC]

Brilliant goal!

[macca70]

If no English clubs get to the final, the chat is that Craig Thomson could get the final!!

[Greendub]

2-0

Fair enough then, I just read a few comments on facebook and folk were saying it was a lot of pish, they must be wrong then and that boy must be spewing!

[nonshinyfinish]

El Shaarawy's hair is well shan.

[hibsbollah]

Meelan were a laughing stock a few months ago, mid table in serie a, aiming for 4th place at best. Quite a turn around.

[Bobo]

Barca have been like watching Arsenal tonight, punchless up front and turd at the back. There's no point having all the possession in a match and doing bugger all with it.

Makes for an interesting 2nd leg.

[nonshinyfinish]

Say what you like about Thomson, but that final whistle was absolutely textbook.

Fair enough, but they usually do something with it. I am no prepared to slate them and tell them to play differently after one reverse.

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

***** offer! oh well.

[Wotherspiniesta]

'Cos he has experience doing blow jobs.

[leither17]

Just seen another angle on a replay and its not a handball for the goal hit the boy in the face

Thomson is still a **** but

[Hibbyradge]

It wasn't handball.

[Hibbyradge]

Nope. It wasn't handball.

Obviously, you wouldn't know a foul if it smacked you straight on the nose.

[nonshinyfinish]

Just seen Yilmaz's goal for Galatasaray...that is lovely, lovely stuff.

[H18sry]

Fair enough then, I just read a few comments on facebook and folk were saying it was a lot of pish, they must be wrong then and that boy must be spewing!

It says the link is not available.

Did they give him something or is that just the photo of the slip?

[blackpoolhibs]

I dont care if the tv cleared it up and its not a hand ball, as far as i'm concerned it was. I only deal in facts. :wink:

And he's still a prick.

Delighted! Had 20 on both the draw and a Milan win.

Offered to take him and a mate to the return leg

Balotelli : "I didn't participate today because of the laws of the CL but I do not know why Messi didn't participate."

[Lucius Apuleius]

Seeing as my boss is a ST holder for Milan, I am happy :greengrin

[JimBHibees]

Balotelli : "I didn't participate today because of the laws of the CL but I do not know why Messi didn't participate."

While quite funny maybe better waiting until after the second leg before coming out with that. :greengrin
