Does anyone have the video of McCraken's kick out at Henderson after the penalty incident?

On hibs tv the same on bt I presume... it was just going out of shot, you could see the Falkirk player put his leg across the front of henderson and bringing him down blatant foul behind the refs back, but not really a wild kick.

doubt there will be any action taken but here's hoping :)

So that was 2 penalties denied by the referee in quick succession and both blatant!

[21.05.2016]

Totally deliberate, took a look at him then stuck the leg out.


What a horrible team.

[hibee-boys]

First time I've seen it on TV, the referee is perfectly placed to see it. How on earth any referee, of any standard, could not award a penalty for that is unbelievable! The kick out at Henderson behind the referees back just sums up Falkirk and their manager. Dirty cheating anti football shower of ****bags!!!

[MoscowHibs]

It was the guy Muirhead who fouled Henderson.I would put in Bartley on Friday tae sort the nonce oot, and maybe put that welt Millar intae the stand. That's 2 games on the trot that they have kicked us off the park. Time for them to get some of their own treatment.

Its "evened itself out though" apparently :rolleyes:

One soft penalty for us is somehow evened out with:

McGinn stonewaller denied
Wrongful red card for McGinn
Clear handball claim for penalty denied
Clear and deliberate trip of Henderson in the box


Aye, Houston all "evened out" now :aok::rolleyes:

In fairness to the ref on that one, he had his back to it so can't possibly have seen. However, defo a case for retrospective action. Was a very deliberate act.

:agree: even more blatant in slow mo/replay - seen it at the time and thought.... thats a foul in itself but was still reeling from the hand ball :rolleyes:

The second picture shows it was a deliberate act to take out Henderson. God knows why though

[Ozyhibby]

So can muirhead be cited today? Is there a mechanism for this?

Not sure, does it not have to be reported to the boy at the SPFL that looks at these incidents? I can't remember his job title.

[JimBHibees]

Hibs should report it themselves. Why not? Falkirk would if roles reversed.

Compliance officer?

[Big_Franck]

That's the fellae. It's a clear kick out at another player off the ball. There can't be any defence of that whatsoever.

[Ozyhibby]

Tony McGlennan is the compliance officer now.

Isn't that why there are two assistant refs and a fourth official though?

[SJM]

Jesus, didn't even notice that. Dirty pricks. Definitely reminds you of hertz under Levein.

[HibsMax]

Whether or not it was reported at match time shouldn't even matter. A clear off the ball incident that merits punishment.

[frazeHFC]

Dirty tin pot club, we better beat them!

[JC94]

I must be the only person that doesn't think thats a red card. A penalty, yes but red card/retrospective action no.

[CallumLaidlaw]

Get tweeting those images to the spfl and SFA.

[J-C]

2 shocking misses by the officials, the ref is 5 yards from the handball and looking straight at it and the assistant must surely see the trip on Henderson, their tactics were disgraceful and the officials even more so.

[Ozyhibby]

It's an off the ball kick at a player. That is never not a red card.

I'm fairly sure either the same player or maybe even another had a punch at Henderson near the edge of the box around about the same time.

It should be a pen, because it obviously is a foul, but I don't think the "kick" is worthy of a red card. He's put his leg out to take Henderson down, it's not a violent act in my opinion, just a stupid trip.

Of course it's violet conduct. The ball is nowhere in sight. He deliberately kicks out at Henderson off the ball. He doesn't have to nut him you you.

Aye that's how you see it. I don't though. It's not even a kick as far as I'm concerned. It's a trip.

[Holmesdale Hibs]

3 penalties even because the Falkirk player handled it twice and then kicked Henderson. That has to be the worst refereeing decision I've ever seen.

[Moulin Yarns]

FIFA Rules say


A player is guilty of violent conduct if he uses excessive force or brutality
against an opponent when not challenging for the ball.

[emerald green]

And the linesman? Where was he? Presumably he was "unsighted" too?

Either way it was a dirty, very sneaky kick from the Falkirk hammer thrower.

[neil7908]

Utter madness. The first hand ball could just about be argued as accidental. The second is as stonewall a penalty as you will ever see. Followed by a kick on Henderson that is 100% a red card.

I must admit due to family ties Falkirk have been my 2nd team but I'm absolutely desperate to beat them on Friday

[HibsMax]

Aye that's how you see it. I don't though. It's not even a kick as far as I'm concerned. It's a trip.
The ball was nowhere near the players so what was his intention? I realise it's unlikely that any harm would have been caused but if Henderson fell awkwardly, what then? We shouldn't wait for players to actually get injured before taking action.

[RoxburghHibs]

If not spotted by match official, the player is usually offered a two game ban.


But as I've not read anything officially, on this, I assume all the officials have missed this (unbelievable) so he has got away with it?

[Ozyhibby]

No, he could still be cited today or tomorrow.

Thats how I see it as well - he doesnt swing a boot at him he puts his leg across him. Never a red card - I would be hacked off if one of our players had been sent off for that.

However - here's hoping the run of poor decisions / referee incompetencies against Falkirk comes to an end on Friday night and hey get what they deserve.

His intention was to trip him up. I'm not arguing that it's a foul, of course it is. I just don't see it as the violent incident that others do. Maybe I'm wrong and he'll get suspended for it, but if he doesn't I'll not be surprised as I don't think it's worthy of more than a yellow card.

Looks like someone agrees with me about it not being a red card. Penalty yes, red card no

[O'Rourke3]

OK so how do we deal with non red card offences missed by the ref that is now on social mwdia? 2 pens and they go on to equalise. No punishment or a ban for the next game? Theres nothing in the middle.

[MagicSwirlingShip]

Henderson was taking the piss out of their defence all night. It's no wonder one of them snapped and kicked him :wink:

On a side note, Hendo has been known to leave his foot in aswell - which kind of makes me like him more; all the best players (or my favourites at least) have a nasty streak. :agree:

Regardless, these handball incidents, the kick out at Hendo, their OTT celebrations to sneak a draw at Easter Road last month, alongside Houstons constant bleatings about how big a budget we have, are going to make pumping them so much better come Friday evening. They are crap and got lucky several times against us this season. :thumbsup:

I hope Stubbs rams it right down that Hearts trumpets throat when we gub them :cb

But what was his ******ing linesman and fourth official doing. All following directive from Hampden bosses no doubt.

[Thief]

Struggling to comprehend how none of the experts on BT sports as well as the news reports on bbc and stv picked up on this.
Was clear as day at the time, saw it clearer from west stand than the handball!
I believe sport sound panel were talking about it so hats off to them but the rest are a joke!

I would agree with you 100% if the incident took place while both players were going for the ball. They weren't though. If they were you could make the argument that it was a poorly timed challenge. This was not a challenge at all though because the ball was nowhere near them. I'm just saying that what made the offence more egregious was the fact that it took place off the ball, not that it was overly violent. We can't just have players running around the pitch tripping people up and shoving them to the ground - that would get out of control instantly.

I doubt either one of us will change our mind on this, but that's OK.

[McD]

I thought anyone could make a complaint to the compliance officer? Or is it just a match official or someone at a club? Or just someone off sportscene :devil:

[Sudds_1]

Is that not why we have linesmen? sorry ................assistant referees!

Bloody joke the 3 of them!

[shamo9]

You see retrospective action in the English Leagues every week. Our match was televised, footage exists to prove it happened.The ref didn't see it so couldn't decide on a course of action at the time. Why can't something be done now?

The game on Friday is supposed to be one of the biggest in the Scottish football calendar :rolleyes:

[Onion]

Didn't see it at the time but you're 100% right. The ball is still in play having been waved on by the incompetent ref, and Henderson is assaulted - taken right out the game. That's also a straight penalty !

Because it isnt a red card offence, it also isnt a 'kick'.

[Eyrie]

Because it isnt a red card offence, it also isnt a 'kick'.

Diving isn't a red card offence, yet results in a player being banned if retrospective action is taken.

There was no excuse for the trip on Henderson. It was a blatant case of taking the man out for no reason, and so has to be dealt with properly. The only reason that nothing will happen is because the SFA get sfa right.

[hibby6270]

You know, I was so raging about the hand ball incident, never even saw the Hendo trip. Only reading about it now.

Best I could find without too much of a search is the General SFA e-mail address - info@scottishfa.co.uk

Send it with Subject: FAO Tony McGlennan, Compliance Officer.

Copy in the YouTube clip link and politely ask what is he going to do about the off the ball trip retrospectively.

Can't do any harm to try. Wouldn't hold out much hope of any action being taken but if we don't report it, that's exactly what will happen - nothing!!

I'm off to send that email now.:thumbsup:

[hibby6270]

Pleas feel free to copy and paste in an email yourselves.

Dear Sir,
I'd like to bring to your attention an incident that occurred in the Hibernian v Falkirk Premiership Play Off Semi Final game at Easter Road on Tuesday 10th May.

I've attached a link to a clip on YouTube which highlights the incident. The referee did not take action for it at the time but I'm sure you'll agree it was an off the ball incident that is worthy if review for the blatant attempt to stop the Hibernian player - Liam Henderson - from making a worthy attempt to get back to try and retrieve the ball whilst still in play.

Notwithstanding the apparent hand ball incident just prior to the kick out at Henderson by the Falkirk player (another incident the referee and his assistants didn't deem to be a foul and a resulting penalty), the fact the trip took place within the penalty area could have resulted in a penalty being awarded in its own right and a possible yellow card for a deliberate trip or an attempt to stop an opponent from gaining an advantage.

In my opinion this incident is worthy of a disciplinary review by you under the terms of your remit.

Please advise what will be done about this and I look forward to hearing your response.

[basehibby]

Absolutely gob smacked at that - McCracken clearly controls the ball with his hand with the ref looking straight at him - WTF :confused::confused::confused:

Compliance officer should certainly pull up Muirhead although don't know if any ban would be in place for Friday. He'd possibly have a right to appeal as well - even though it would be a total joke to do so.
