Tonight's games

[Pretty Boy]

Watching the Man Utd game and Luke Shaw just suffered a bit of a sickening injury.

Bad tackle, foot got caught in the turf and all his weight went on it. Looked like a bad break.

Still 0-0 in the game.

[Andy74]

Horrible. Shame. He was just starting to show what he can do.

[Borderhibbie76]

Man city game dull as dishwater so far and nae atmosphere

OMG! Shocking!

[Pretty Boy]

OMG! Shocking!

You could tell by LVGs face when he spoke to the Doctor it's a bad one, as well as seeing it obviously.

Poor guy would likely have featured at the Euros as well.

You sure could! He was coming onto his game as well and like you say would of probably featured at the Euros.

Hopefully no complications for the young lad.

[Billy]

Aberdeen 1-0 up v Hamilton. Rooney penalty.

Aberdeen pressing all the time and forcing Accies to stay in their half. Accies could have also had a penalty but Imrie booked for diving in the referees eyes.

Been assured the filth will tuck Aberdeen away on Sunday.

[Billy]

McGinn with some excellent set piece deliveries, Hayes and Shinnie providing Aberdeen with good pace down the flanks and given time Aberdeen very comfortable passing the ball around looking for openings.

When pressed though, Accies are having some success and getting shots away but from distance.

[Pretty Boy]

1-0 United. Memphis of course.

[Pretty Boy]

1-1. OG.

Man Utd could have been 3 up and get sucker punched. It's like watching Hibs.

[Billy]

HT: 1-0 Aberdeen

Aberdeen game live anywhere??

It looked but that's a shocker. I thought it was a pen

[The_Horde]

It looked but that's a shocker. I thought it was a pen

And a red. Going by the rules. Horrible.

[blackpoolhibs]

Holy ****, that's a bad one he may never come back from.

[Billy]

Aberdeen game live anywhere??

Only on their club TV channel

[Pretty Boy]

And a red. Going by the rules. Horrible.

Picture here shows the impact. Not nice:

http://www.sbat.com/news/shaw-suffers-horror-injury#sv9mCHyogDJ4f030.01

Whilst not excusing the challenge, which was reckless, I don't think there was any intent and the guy did look gutted when he saw the injury. It's when you see things like that you realise why a lot of what was acceptable in days gone by no longer is.

[3pm]

1-0 Citeh.

[cabbageandribs1875]

what's the point in a 4th official when he fails to see Kompany using a ladder to climb up the juve defender for a goal

[Billy]

Fantastic one handed save from McGovern from a Rooney header 5 yards out. Should have been 2-0 to the Dons

[Billy]

Nade off and has a go at Boozy!! Nade sits on the bench and Boozy not happy, Canning has to go over to talk to him.

2-1 PSV.

Great cross and header.

[Mr White]

2 nil sevilla. They've had 3 second half pens.

[cabbageandribs1875]

juve score 1-1

[Billy]

Accies seeing more of the ball and getting shots on target. They are quicker to close down this half and giving Aberdeen problems.

That's out of order. He doesn't play for the Jambos anymore.

[Billy]

Yeah, I want to see what we are going to be up against next week.

[Andy74]

Yeah, I want to see what we are going to be up against next week.

Good effort!

[3pm]

There is a bit on BBC sport about Shaw. He's sent a couple of tweets.

[Off the bar]

Yeah, I want to see what we are going to be up against next week.

How do you rate our chances next week?

[cabbageandribs1875]

crackin goal 2-1 juve

[Billy]

McGinn hits the bar. Not a full strength Aberdeen side out tonight but with pressure you can get between the lines and cut out their attacks.

They are dangerous going forward and have pace which can get them behind the full backs before putting crosses into the box.

[SteveHFC]

A few empty seats in Manchester.

Gloryhunting *******s

[3pm]

City are mingling…

[blackpoolhibs]

City are mingling…


Who with?

[3pm]

Who with?

If they keep going like this probably Ajax and Fenerbahce! :wink:

[Billy]

How do you rate our chances next week?

We need to press them hard, cut out balls behind the full backs as they like to go past and cross into the box.

They have good set pieces from McGinn who will whip them in and they now have good strength and depth in their side.

They can be opened up between the lines and we will cause them problems in midfield and up front. We will get chances and if we take them then I feel we will have a good chance of getting a result. It will be tough but they won't come and sit in like some teams, they will look to play which may suit us.

[cabbageandribs1875]

man city fans song count over 90 mins

I thought this was a great quote from a Celtic supporter on Kerrydale St.:

FT: 1-0 Aberdeen

[cabbageandribs1875]

13,246 at todders, not a bad att on a CL night

[Pretty Boy]

Man Utd get a corner and free kick in the last minute and play both short and waste each of them. Madness, get it in the box. The free kick they moved the ball less than 2 yards.

[Pretty Boy]

2-1 FT.

United the better side but PSV scored a good goal and battled hard for their win.

[Jim44]

FT: 1-0 Aberdeen

There's a huge irony in this post, given the amount of Man City strips you see kicking about these days that where nowhere to be seen before they had however many hundreds of millions poured into them.

In fact, pre-Oasis (who lifted the credibility of City a bit back in the mid-90's) i can barely recall a City strip kicking about. Certainly nobody had one at school where it was Liverpool or United, and Newcastle were 'in' for a wee while when Shearer etc were there.

I don't have an English team and like watching both Manchester sides, so i'm not saying this to defend United, just saying that it's a bit of a shan argument if the best City can come up with is 'United fans aren't from Manchester.'

[J-C]

Recorded the Man U game and watched it when I came in, Shaw's leg break was a bad one, broken in 2 places, might finish his career it looks that bad. LVG has a poor record at PSV when he was at AZ and Ajax, also they have a very good home record,so no surprise they got beat, the game changed when Shaw came off, he's been that good for them this season. EPL is not the best league in the world but it is the most exciting as there is more competitive matches from the rest of the teams in the league compared to Spain and Italy.

I know a Mn City fan and he says that most Man City fans come from the city itself, whereas Man U take a lot of their fans from the surrounding areas like Salford, Trafford, Wigan, Bolton etc.

My laddie had a season ticket at Old Trafford until he became a dad and I went to a couple of games with him when his mate couldn't go and TBH all the accents I heard where Mancunian, you've got to remember that Manchester and the surrounding areas are very big indeed and the population down there compared to here is quite large.

The joke goes that Man U fans don't come from Manchester but from all over the country, out of the 75,000 there I really couldn't say how many were from Manchester but hearing the accents around me, I'd say quite a lot.

[Sir David Gray]

Right so a Manchester City fan makes a comment which helps to stir up the ongoing belief that Manchester Utd fans don't come from Manchester!?

You don't think they'll be ever so slightly biased in that argument?

[Carheenlea]

I know a big Man U fan - I`ve been to Old Trafford once, and that is once more than him.

[Sergey]

What a goal - Boston take the lead again 2-3 @ Corby (and it's seriously pissing it down).

2 minutes + stoppage time to go.

I didn't say anything about stirring it up, Man U take a lot of fans from the surrounding areas of Manchester it's a well known fact, city have always seen themselves as the city club. I was trying to establish the nonsense that Old Trafford is filled with Londoners etc, anyone except Manchester fans but when I was there all the folk I spoke to or heard had distinct Mancunian accents, whether they were from Manchester or the surrounding towns I couldn't say.

[blackpoolhibs]

There's just as many Man U fans in Manchester than there is City fans, but there is more United fans everywhere else.

[J-C]

That was my point, I expected there to be loads of non Mancunians when I went to the game but there wasn't.

2 challenges per team per half and there wouldn't be the same delays imo. Also a lot of the delays in Rugby stem from the pile of 20 stone morons blocking the view of the ball and the line. Less of a problem in the beautiful game.

There's no way it would have made it to the big screen if it was an engurland try. The referee never requested it so was trial by English TV director

Well i'd imagine if he'd taken the conversion it would have probably stood, but it didnt and they managed to get the decision correct, would you rather they got it wrong?

I personally wish they had got it wrong, but if this was against Scotland i'd definitely want them to have got this decision right.

So that's what I'm asking. How long do they wait? So in your eyes if he had kicked it then they would go along with the wrong decision but they got it before the kick so that's fine?

[Andy74]

Awful start to the season for Ian Murray and St Mirren.

He had a lot to say about previous Hibs managers. I think he's finding it's not as easy as he thought.

It's obviously wrong if they'd taken the conversion, but they would just have to get on with it. If it's seen before they play the next phase of the game, then it's all good.

[BoomtownHibees]

I think he's an idiot. Hope we never see him anywhere near Hibs.

[Ronniekirk]

Was at the St Mirren game .they were just rank rotten in the first half and didn't deserve to go in at half time level .they sorted it out at half time and caused Raith problems and were unlucky not to take the lead ,but the second goal was a horrendous one to loose .
Webster was Sluggish ,Goodwin Thugish ( got his usual booking ) and the Team Rubbish .

There were under 3,000 fans there and many left after secondd goal . Murray needs to do something soon or fans will be calling for him to go

Will either get sacked or get St Mirren relegated, I'll go for the first one and the new manager that comes in will probably get them sacked due to Murray's mess.

3 points required the morra and hope Alloa take something at home v Falkirk

After witnessing Alloas performance last week i can only see them getting hammered.

[SonOfDavidFrancey]

Surprised they didn't cotton on to his threat earlier.

There's the rub.

Based on last week's performance, there's not a chance that Alloa will take anything against Falkirk.

[Mr White]

There are no challenges in rugby.

I'm aware of that. I was suggesting it would make sense to limit the use of it in football to 2 challenges per team per half. If it were ever introduced to football.

[Hibs Class]

Well i'd imagine if he'd taken the conversion it would have probably stood, but it didnt and they managed to get the decision correct, would you rather they got it wrong?

I personally wish they had got it wrong, but if this was against Scotland i'd definitely want them to have got this decision right.

In the 2014 six nations match v Wales Stuart Hogg was given a yellow card for a tackle. After the ref saw the replay on the stadium screen he called Hogg back from the sin bin and turned it into a red card

I'm not a rugby fan, in fact i only watched 10 minutes of last nights game and happened to catch the incident we are discussing.

Surely the point should be that the officials got the decision right in the end?

No idea who Stuart Hogg is, or if the ref was right or wrong? :dunno:

[hibsbollah]

Just watching the Chelsea-Arsenal game, and the non-handshake saga continues.

By comparison, I took my son to football training this morning, all the 8 year olds shook hands before and after because they know its the right thing to do.

Not much quality yet, 0-0. I love watching Alexis Sanchez play, such speed from a standing start.

[Gatecrasher]

Nottingham Forest v middlesbrough is turning put to be a good game.

I'm not sure I agree with shaking hands before tbh. IMO its a bit forced and unnecessary.

[hibsbollah]

Regardless, Its become 'the thing to do'. If you do it with one manager you should do it with all of them.

Yeah don't get me wrong bud I wasn't talking about this specific saga , more a general observation.

[Gatecrasher]

Handbags in the arsenal game. Gunners down to 10 men Gabriel losing the plot

[Mon Dieu4]

Diego Costa really is a cowardly bawbag

[hibsbollah]

Yeah don't get me wrong bud I wasn't talking about this specific saga , more a general observation.

Yeah I agree.


diego costa is a prick. Gabriel gets sent off for the arse but costa does far worse, hands into face, knocking over players off the ball, and stays on the pitch. Job done for Jose.

[TRC]

Refs lost the game for me in the arsenal chelsea game

[blackpoolhibs]

Yeah I agree.

:agree: Now this is exactly what all these camera's should be used for, each team could have 2 challenges a game or a half, and Arsenal would have 11 men and Chelsea 10.

This is a travesty unfolding in front of everybody's eyes except the officials who can only go with what they see.

[HibbyAndy]

Costa is a cheating ****!!! It should been that ugly twat that saw red.

[easty]

They'd both have 10 surely. Gabriel deserved to go.

[liamh2202]

I think he meant Costa would have been sent off before the Gabriel incident

[Gatecrasher]

Just seen the replay Costa should be off for being a fanny and I still no idea what led to the sending off in the middle of the pitch.

[HH81]

Costa is a clown the refs should know better.

[easty]

Costa is a clown the refs should know better.

So should the opposition players. Instead of a petulant wee kick/stamp, Gabriel should have just noised him up, Costa is always going to bite, then he'd have been off and Gabriel would be laughing.

[Mr White]

Costa really is a detestable ****.

[HH81]

The red card can not happen if the ref does not make a mistake :confused:

[Mr White]

1 nil chelsea

[easty]

Correct, but refs get things wrong...a lot. Doesn't excuse Gabriel being a fanny.

[HH81]

I would say frustration caused it more than being a fanny? Been a rugby lad id have just dropped Coasta instead.

[hfc rd]

Cazorla has now been shown a 2nd yellow.

[hfc rd]

Just looked as if Costa kicked out at Chamberlain. Such a very lucky boy to be on the pitch

[Aldo]

Cazorla has now been shown a 2nd yellow.

Stupid challenge especially when your on a yellow.

As for Costa! He needs to be sorted out in the tunnel.

Like a big bairn when things don't go his way!

If your gonnae get a red do it right!

[blackpoolhibs]

They'd both have 10 surely. Gabriel deserved to go.


Costa would be off before the petulant kick after the bookings. And can anyone tell me why the Arsenal player was booked during the first incident, because as far as i saw the ref just booked both players for something he never even saw?

If he'd seen the incident, he'd have sent Costa off and not even booked the Arsenal man.

Chelsea 10 men Arsenal 11.

[hfc rd]

2-0 Eden Hazard or Chambers O.G.

[Mr White]

Hammers 1 up at city. First league goal joe hart has conceded this season.

[SteveHFC]

2-0 West Ham

[Thecat23]

YAAASSS, come on the mighty hammers!

[hfc rd]

Massive shock in the rugby with Japan scoring a last minute try to beat South Africa. Could it be a shock at the Manchester City game to follow? 30 mins to go and the Hammers are still leading 2-1.

now now, O ye of little faith :greengrin


even better with Q.oS and Morton dropping points as well

:agree: Very pleasing result as it now means that Falkirk are within one win of us.

Pity Dumbarton couldn't have got something from Sevco.

[Haymaker]

Irons! Irons! Irons!

Two big coupon busters in the football and rugby!

Perfunctory is the word. It's become a dull routine. It hasn't changed the game. They still cheat and kick the bejasus out of each other, which makes the handshaking a bit hypocritical, no?

[Sir David Gray]

Just seen the Costa incident, how the referee hasn't seen him swing his arm in the face of Koscielny is anyone's guess.

Costa should have been sent off and then the incident a few moments later with Gabriel doesn't take place.
