Well v Huns - Crime Watch II

[Onion]

Full marks to Bobbly Madden for his decent first half performance at Ibrox. But football's a game of two halves.

Will the man in charge today be as impartial and professional as Madden ? Or will he make himself the centre of attention, and ensure the Doncaster Hun's progress to the Premiership ?

[Waxy]

McCall will have had them practising long jumps into the penalty box.

[JimBHibees]

Expect an early game changer soft pen or last man red card. I am sure Mr Thomson will arbitrate in his usual efficient, no-nonsense manner letting the game flow and only getting involved when necessary. :rolleyes::greengrin

[weonlywon6-2]

Can see rangers going all out and Motherwell sneaking a goal, game over, Dean shiels sent off and Scott McDonald scoring in front of the rangers fans and being hit with a missile 😀😀😀😀😀😀

Is Craig Thomson the ref for this afternoon?

Here we go, absolute shambles of ridiculous decisions probably all in favour of Rangers!!

[H18S NX]

Motherwell man sent off and the rangers get 2 pens,well it is that **** Thompson after all.

[SunshineOnLeith]

CT is ref? What are the latest odds on Rangers to get through, I'm just off to mortgage my kidneys...

[Danderhall Hibs]

Is Craig Thomson the ref for this afternoon?

Here we go, absolute shambles of ridiculous decisions probably all in favour of Rangers!!

What are we saying about Thomson then? Is he biased against us or just incompetent?

[Diclonius]

Thomson will not be biased today as Hibs aren't playing.

[HH81]

Why would they have a ref for different legs? Seems odd to me.

[Danderhall Hibs]

Why would they have a ref for different legs? Seems odd to me.

It's normal? I'd have thought it was odd if it was the same ref in both legs.

[macca70]

What are we saying about Thomson then? Is he biased against us or just incompetent?

Just completely incompetent, there's even fans of foreign teams that have put together YouTube videos of some of his absolutely dreadful decisions that he's made whilst in charge of some European and International games

[HH81]

It's normal? I'd have thought it was odd if it was the same ref in both legs.

In europe they have the same refs and linesman for the whole tie.

Did we have different refs in the last round?

[Danderhall Hibs]

Just completely incompetent, there's even fans of foreign teams that have put together YouTube videos of some of his absolutely dreadful decisions that he's made whilst in charge of some European games

I think I preferred it when I thought he was just biased against us.

[H18S NX]

Why would they have a ref for different legs? Seems odd to me....Madden never stopped Motherwells 3 goals:wink::agree:

[Stokesy's on fire]

Thomson will not be biased today as Hibs aren't playing.

Exactly

If CT wants to cause us long term issues then he will be in favour of Motherwell staying up! rangers will spend millions next season no matter what league they are in.

I still want them down with us!

[AlbertK86]

Minute 3

Long ball into box for elbows McCulloch -who McCall has said he is considering playing up to play the high ball to - he clatters his elbow into McManus eye socket but falls over - penalty

Early goal then 99th minute equaliser....

[brog]

In europe they have the same refs and linesman for the whole tie.

Did we have different refs in the last round?

Its been many years since one ref took charge of home/away Euro ties & yes we had different refs for both our ties.

[emerald green]

I think I preferred it when I thought he was just biased against us.

I think Thomson is both biased against Hibs, and incompetent. He's inconsistent too, and his manner in dealing with players on the pitch just gets on my wick. He's just awful. Yet the powers that be keep putting him in charge of important fixtures like this. Maybe they see something I don't see?

Why Thomson seems biased against Hibs is what I would like to get to the bottom of. Supporters (of all clubs) are never going to understand why some referees make the decisions they do during a football match until they, the referees and their assistants, are allowed to explain any contentious or controversial decisions after the match.

Why can't this be done? Surely it gives officials the chance to explain themselves, and defend against any accusations of cheating and so on? Even if they come out and say "I'm sorry that decision was wrong now that I've seen it again on video."

Yeh agree with this.. His manner when speaking to players is shocking. How can you demand respect when you don't know the first thing about giving it out

[Sir David Gray]

Yes Thomson is the referee.

Can't wait to watch his masterclass in refereeing today.

FIFA delegates vote Blatter into power, despite years of allegations of corruption and money laundering - or maybe because of it :cb If this can happen at the very top of the game, why would appointment of corrupt officials like Craig Thompson in a 3rd rate football country be unthinkable ? The man's bent.

[stevie-bee]

Just checked with betfair the Rangers are favourites 7/5 Motherwell 2/1

[blackpoolhibs]

I think Motherwell's decision to have a reduced sevco attendance is a great decision and one i think will help them today.

Having 5000 huns in behind that goal would have given them a huge backing, especially if they got an early goal. Nerves would kick in and 5000 huns baying for another would be intimidating.

Now they will hardly hear them like at easter road, and the Well fans will hopefully drown them out with their celebrations all game.

I hope they're sticking them up the top of the stand as well, like they normally do with fans of other clubs who bring a small allocation to Fir Park.

And for that reason I hope Well pump them again

[SunshineOnLeith]

What are we saying about Thomson then? Is he biased against us or just incompetent?

He referees games to their 'script' or whatever slant gets him the least attention. Hearts were big favourites, justifiably, going into the final so had he sent off Ian Black for the flying elbow and Hibs had gone on to win - big story. Dodgy two bookings and horrendous penalty decision against Kujabi - gets brushed under the carpet by the media etc as didn't impact the expected result, a Hearts win.

It's gone in our favour as well, on Skacel's return to Easter Road with Dundee Utd. It would have been a much bigger story, especially in the wake of the cup final, had Thomson made a tw@t of it AGAIN and allowed Skacel to 'haunt' us, so he erred on the side of Hibs in any close calls as a Hibs win in a routine league match is never going to get a ref much attention, even if there's one or two dodgy calls in there.

It's clear today that the 'expected' result from the playoff is Rangers to progress, so expect him to show leniency towards Zaliukas, for example, if he gets a bit elbow happy or makes a few fouls early. On the other hand, watch out for one of Motherwell's back four or midfield getting booked for their first foul. Because if he sends off a Rangers player/gives Motherwell a penalty etc, only for TV replays to show he was wrong, he's the headline tomorrow. If he gives Rangers a slightly iffy penalty or harshly sends off a Motherwell player, no further mention will be made of it and he'll maintain his false reputation as our 'Top Ref'.

He's a weasel.

[gaz1875]

McCulloch only featuring in away matches recently...tactical to avoid hun backlashes when they loose goals :greengrin

Yup, total unbiased reporting 😣

[DH1875]

Been saying all week I wanted rangers to go up. Duck that though, c'mon the well.

[I'm_cabbaged]

CT doing what he does best, clear advantage, motherwell on the break. Give them a free kick.

[One Day Soon]

Eh, I'm staying with my position on wanting Rangers to go up.

[Hibs Class]

Are BT Sport only showing messages of support from Rangers fans?

It's quite simple.....anyone who goes on camera and speaks out for Well is against the Huns and would have their windows put in by bedtime.

[Gatecrasher]

Rangers started the better of the 2 teams like Thursday.

[Bostonhibby]

BT sports is very pro rangers. Can see myself getting rid of it soon for that reason.

As an aside, an arsenal fan I am watching it with wondered why Derrys walls need guarding? If they do, are a lot of people from Scotland the best ones to do it? And if so Wtf are they doing at a football game in Motherwell? Not much guarding going on!

[Sir David Gray]

Eh, I'm staying with my position on wanting Rangers to go up.

Yep.

Hi pal, you back from your honeymoon?

[bingo70]

I think there's positives that can be taken regardless of who stays down so I'm just going to enjoy the game and no get too humpty irrespective of result.

[DH1875]

Wallace should have been booked there.

[Gatecrasher]

Boyd's having a good game :greengrin

[DH1875]

Looking at that stand it looks like they've got both tiers. That's more than 1,500 tickets.

[Jim44]

Why are 'Well fans not throwing paper cups at Sevco corners?

[high bee]

The occasion is getting to Well, they're are very uncomfortable in possession.

[Glory Lurker]

I don't think either outcome in this game is completely satisfactory. I take it there really is no chance at all that we might get promoted instead????

[SuperAllyMcleod]

Wallace should have been booked there.

Yeah, I'm fed up with players being treated as though it's the first game they have ever played. They know a challenge like that is a booking, so why warn them?

[jacomo]

I don't think either outcome in this game is completely satisfactory. I take it there really is no chance at all that we might get promoted instead????

We declined that opportunity.

[Bishop Hibee]

Scottish refs treat big games completely differently from refs in other countries. They let cloggers away with murder.

Annoys me when refs get praised for keeping their cards in their pocket in big games.

If it warrants a booking it should be one.

Why's that Motherwell fan got a red card with him? What a goon

[Bishop Hibee]

The Rangerz dick.

I hate The Rangers but I would prefer them to go up. Murdoch lucky to stay on the pitch or is it luck?

[high bee]

Linesman calls it wrong from 1 foot away.

[I'm_cabbaged]

Yep, saw that as well.

Guaranteed league reconstruction anyway after next season.:agree:

How can there be any doubt Thomson saw the elbow from Zaliukas? It was literally 12 inches from his own face!

[StevieC]

Zaliukas being his charming self, idiot.

Elbow to the face off the ball, Thomson right next to it .. no action taken. :rolleyes:

[blackpoolhibs]

Terrific flag display. :top marks

[Matt92]

Total farce: point blank you see him actually look at the elbow connect and immediately brush over it. ****.

[Bostonhibby]

Zaliukas filling the McCullough role with the elbow there. Retrospective red as the officials seem to have missed it?

[I'm_cabbaged]

Terrific flag display. :top marks

[Hermit Crab]

Sportsound team especially chick and Derek are very upset to The Rangers are not winning.

[SunshineOnLeith]

The ref actually gave McManus a talking to! "Careful getting your head in the way of the gentleman's elbow, alright son?"

[DH1875]

Looking at that stand it looks like they've got both tiers. That's more than 1,500 tickets.

Just showed it again. They defo have both tiers.

[Sir David Gray]

Don't like Lee McCulloch but that could have been nasty.

It looked intentional as well so he'll be fortunate to escape any further action.

[GreenArmyyy!]

Third game in a row that balloon Vuckic has been booked for diving.

[green day]

Boring game. Motherwell get to half time intact, I think they are ok.

The co commentator is making a clown of himself, trying like mad to justify every decision against Rangers as an injustice, really biased and poor.

Not much of a footballing spectacle but it's a battle with plenty of flashpoints so far.

[Matt92]

Shocking commentary. They are willing the ball into the Motherwell net.

[GreenArmyyy!]

Round you Zaliukas 😂

[Thief]

Don't like mcculloch either, but to be fair to him, he could've made a lot more of the flag incident, and he did pull out of the challenge for his yellow card there.

[Pretty Boy]

If zaliukas was wearing claret and amber he'd be in the shower by now.

If Thompson didn't see that he's blind, if he did he made a decision.to ignore it.

[liamh2202]

Just showed you.. They have half of both tiers but there are gaps in both so suggests the area they got holds more tickets than they were given just to rub it in 😂

[Thecat23]

This game is honking!!!

[SunshineOnLeith]

I'm really enjoying it.

Not much of a footballing spectacle but it's a battle with plenty of flashpoints so far.

Agreed. You don't have to be watching Arsenal or Barcelona for a game to be enjoyable.

It's tense, there's nerves on show everywhere, a proper battle of wills.

[Dan Sarf]

[H18S NX]

How much is the ball in the air,crap crap game,so far.

[DH1875]

Just showed you.. They have half of both tiers but there are gaps in both so suggests the area they got holds more tickets than they were given just to rub it in 😂

They have both tiers and don't see many gaps in the bottom one. That stand holds over 4.5k fans, defo looks more than half full.

[GreenLake]

Shocking commentary. They are willing the ball into the Motherwell net.

I am willing the ball into Thomson's crotch from a hard defensive clearance.

[S4uzee]

The commentator telling us the minutes of the goals Hibs have conceded

[liamh2202]

They have both tiers and don't see many gaps in the bottom one. That stand holds over 4.5k fans, defo looks more than half full.

There are big gaps in the top tier. I think it looks like there are 1500 of them as a rough guess ;) I think the top tier is more than half of the stands capacity so that would seem right.. Got me thinking though.we should have given them the whole south stand but only 1000 tickets.. Let them stretch their legs a bit.

If the rangers stay down there's a good chance we'll be in the play offs too (there's also a good chance we'll win the league, we need to recognise it's a possibility though)

On the evidence of this Motherwell are a far more daunting prospect than Rangers if you ignore the name.

As it stands King is full of promises but not a lot else so I'm sceptical about how much Rangers will strenghten especially when you consider all their financial projections are based on them being promoted.

League reconstruction for 2016/17 a certainty now, so even the Huns will get promoted. Don't worry :greengrin

The gutless relinquishing of titles to the Old Firm over the years is part of the reason why Scottish football is a mess. Bring it on, we can finish above them next year and probably will. **** the Huns.

Spot on.

[Thief]

10 minutes and the red cards will start flying :-)

[liamh2202]

Another crack at them? when they're guaranteed to spend big over summer, yeah, great idea.

Guaranteed???

[SkintHibby]

Also delighted to see that wee runt Kenny Black looking miserable. :greengrin

[gaz1875]

Strange effort by Bell, it looked a very very simple catch :confused: LMFAO

[AlbertK86]

Keeper makes a wee girlie punch into his own net. A fitting outcome for the blue cheats.

ThTs an insult to girls !!!

[Matt92]

I'm actually more excited about next season now: will be nice to have some mild competition when we stroll to the championship title...and keep the Huns down.

[TAHibby]

Support rangers in a football match? Nah you're alright.

[DaveF]

On the evidence of this Motherwell are a far more daunting prospect than Rangers if you ignore the name.

As it stands King is full of promises but not a lot else so I'm sceptical about how much Rangers will strenghten especially when you consider all their financial projections are based on them being promoted.

Agree. And while it's fair to say Motherwell (if they had gone down) would have lost a few players, it's also a bit arrogant to think we would somehow have coasted the league with them in it rather than the huns. Whoever is here with us next season, will be difficult opponents and winning it will be a hard task.

Now that it's pretty much nailed on that the huns will be out biggest challenge, we need to focus on getting the job done. We will be under pressure to win it. The huns will be under 10x as much pressure.

[GreenArmyyy!]

Another crack at them? when they're guaranteed to spend big over summer, yeah, great idea.

I hope they do spend big, as they have done since they were demoted, they can't keep up paying these wages forever, they haemorrhage money and I wouldn't be surprised they end up in trouble again during next season. They are crap and I wouldn't want them to win at dominoes never mind a game that promotes them.

[Dan Sarf]

Aw naw big Boydie going off. Was loving his work. A master class in hopelessness.

[liamh2202]

Exactly.. Bring them on no matter how much cash they think they will throw at them

[jimmythefish]

Why are people celebrating, it only hampers our chances next season?:confused:
Ffs man up the whole country's laughing thier arse off

[leggeto]

Delighted, we will hit the ground running next season and win it

[Ronniekirk]

What was bell thinking ?...just catch it........can't wait for work tomorrow now

He wasn't aware how far off his line he was and when stepping backwards and looking up became disorientated But what an erase of it he made Just shows how we didn't put them under enough pressure in terms of shots on target

[GreenArmyyy!]

Absolutely love that twist and shout chant. Sounds tremendous.

[SunshineOnLeith]

Hibs record v Rangers in 90 minutes in 14/15: DWWWLLW.

Aye, I'm keeking myself at the prospect of another season with them :rolleyes:

[Matt92]

Absolutely love that twist and shout chant. Sounds tremendous.

Best chant I've heard in a while along with our "OOO...de deee de deee de dee de dee dede" chant.

Aw come on Motherwell fans don't bring us into this, we are supporting you!!

[Kojock]

not sure they will be spending big....

Im with you there, where is all this so called cash coming from ??

[hibby6270]

Can't quíte believe I'm about to write this - BUT - Mr CT has actually reffed this game pretty well. Hasn't give the Huns a sniff of a dodgy decision. Even booked Vuckic for diving. Thought my eyes were deceiving me :wink:

There is 30 minutes to go though :rolleyes:

[SkintHibby]

I watched Rangers beat my team, other teams and win titles for years and had to put up with their gloating and building up their support........SPENDING MONEY THEY DID NOT HAVE.

You will forgive me if I enjoy every second of their continued misery. F em.:agree:

[semaj64]

Why are people celebrating, it only hampers our chances next season?:confused:

They were crap this season and even if they have some money they will be rebuilding, Hibs on the other hand have been rebuilding and are far better placed for the start of the season.

[hfc rd]

He let that Jambo twat sallyokas off with an elbow on Pearson in the first half.

[Onion]

BT commentators sound gutted, running through the excuses for the Huns falling short, just as would be expected by their audience. Bet they mention league reconstruction before the end of the game !

[SkintHibby]

He let that Jambo twat sallyokas off with an elbow on Pearson in the first half.

Handbags at dawn.

[DH1875]

What's happened to that Ainsworth guy? Ripped them apart in the first leg and been missing all game today.

[heretoday]

I'm actually more excited about next season now: will be nice to have some mild competition when we stroll to the championship title...and keep the Huns down.

That's the spirit. And once again the Championship will be more interesting than the SPL.

[hfc rd]

Yessss!!!!!

[GreenLake]

Yes !!!!!!!!!

[Onion]

:agree: Reserved for Hibs matches. 2-0 Game over.

3rd deflected goal - proves luck over skill everytime !!

[dmc1875]

That image of zaliukas lying distraught on the floor has made my Sunday

[hfc rd]

Another deflection by Sally

[Mr White]

Chuckle.

[GreenLake]

We are the away walking people

[Sir David Gray]

Sevco's dead as a club now.

[StevieC]

Zaliukas on a hat-trick now :greengrin

Or maybe not .. substituted :faf:

[hibby6270]

He let that Jambo twat sallyokas off with an elbow on Pearson in the first half.

Aye - but it wasn't in the class of McCulloch - so not worthy lol

And woo-hoo, it's 2-0 Yaaaaassss

[hibee_girl]

What's happened to that Ainsworth guy? Ripped them apart in the first leg and been missing all game today.

:greengrin

[Glory Lurker]

Ma sides! Ma sides!:faf:

[(((Fergus)))]

We can see you sneakin oot

[GreenArmyyy!]

Get in yah dancer!

[AL-Qaholik]

They don't do winning away.
They do do walking away.

[Hibs Class]

Hahahahahahahahahahahaha - big Zal again. Huns will be furious now that Thhomson didn't send him off for elbows earlier.

[SuperAllyMcleod]

I hope the Hun fans have been told that they will be locked in until 10 mins after full time - I'd hate them to miss any of this!

[Hermit Crab]

And that will be that ladies and gentlemen. Sport sound are absolutely spewing.

[dmc1875]

Zaliukas taken off. Oh yes

[AlbertK86]

Walk away walk away

Another deflection from the ex yam

Ha ha ha ha ha ha

[DH1875]

What's happened to that Ainsworth guy? Ripped them apart in the first leg and been missing all game today.

Erm......Right on queue lol :)

[Bostonhibby]

Are they doing walking away again?

[lucky]

This is not good for Hibs. We could be facing a third season in the championship if the Rangers invest in their team.

[leggeto]

Nice

[Dan Sarf]

In the immortal words of Roy Orbison, it's over, ooooooooo-ver!!!!!!!!!

[high bee]

Scenes!

[HoboHarry]

This is not good for Hibs. We could be facing a third season in the championship if the Rangers invest in their team.
Aye and if ma auntie had baws........... zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[Green forever]

Please score more...

[Danderhall Hibs]

Zaliukas taken off. Oh yes

Shame - he was on a hat trick.

I'd loved him to stay on to clinch it or get a really sore one.

[silverhibee]

Walking away.

[Onion]

This is not good for Hibs. We could be facing a third season in the championship if the Rangers invest in their team.

Wrong place. Wrong time. :greengrin

[green day]

This is not good for Hibs. We could be facing a third season in the championship if the Rangers invest in their team.

Aye, or we could win it.

[leggeto]

All the ex-huns will be in the papers the morn saying this is a disaster for our game,boohoo

[Baldy Foghorn]

Im with you there, where is all this so called cash coming from ??

I'm sure MA will want his cash back which is a hefty sum, can't work out how they can possibly spend big, unless they win the Euromillions?

[Mr White]

Mark mcgoo saying well fans shouldn't celebrate. Aye ok then.

[(((Fergus)))]

This is not good for Hibs. We could be facing a third season in the championship if the Rangers invest in their team.

Who will invest in that team?

[weecounty hibby]

They won't. They can't. They have no cash. They will be happy to wait on league reconstruction. Get it right roond them

[Shrekko]

This is not good for Hibs. We could be facing a third season in the championship if the Rangers invest in their team.

I'm not convinced they'll be much stronger- they're still losing money, relying on 'loans' to keep them going and have a lot of guys out of contract now I think.

[zlatan]

This is not good for Hibs. We could be facing a third season in the championship if the Rangers invest in their team.

With what money will they invest? Ashley needs 5 million before anything can happen.

[Glory Lurker]

I've just remembered that this spells Armageddon again for the Scottish game. It's not so funny now.

[EdinMike]

Can't believe people wanted Rangers to go up they are honkin ! And this so called 'Big Spending' that they are going to do was based on them being promoted.

In summary hahahahahahahaha !!

[Hermit Crab]

This is not good for Hibs. We could be facing a third season in the championship if the Rangers invest in their team.


Who's going to want to play for them? King has shown no evidence he is going to splash the cash. They were counting on going up financially. We will finish above them again.

[CB_NO3]

Not looking forward to having the Huns in the league next season. They will have 10x our budget and won't be anyway near as bad as this season.

[Matt92]

Why are people so defeatist about rangers staying down?! They were ***** this season, are broke and their league position definitely flattered them. They will most likely lose players like Wallace and Vuckik. Let's keep them down for a third year.

[SkintHibby]

We want 7!

[Baldy Foghorn]

This is not good for Hibs. We could be facing a third season in the championship if the Rangers invest in their team.

They dinnae have a pot to pi$$ in......

[Sergey]

WTF is McCall thinking? SEVCO are 5-1 down and he brings on a defender.*

*If Mohsni qualifies as a defender in the loosest sense of the word

[skipster7]

Probably the funniest goalkeeping gaffe I've seen for a long time. The fact its zaliukas and the huns only adding to me psml:LOL:

[SkintHibby]

Not looking forward to having the Huns in the league next season. They will have 10x our budget and won't be anyway near as bad as this season.

League reconstruction is a certainty.

The wont want to risk 2 of Scotlands biggest clubs spending a 3rd season in oblivion.:agree:

[Hermit Crab]

Mark mcgoo saying well fans shouldn't celebrate. Aye ok then.


A laughable statement!
