Not a penalty

[CyberSauzee]

Looking at highlights on SSN.

McGregor got a touch on the ball first and the fat lump tumbled over his leg. Ball went in the direction of Macgrogor's touch and gathered by Rocky.

Will post a grainy image shortly...

[Hibs Class]

My first impression at the match was that it was not a penalty. Presumably the bookings for Darren in both matches will mean he is suspended for the Ayr tie?

[ancient hibee]

My impression was that he got the man before the ball.

Yep looks like one of the development team will play

[HibbiesandtheBaddies]

Not impressed with McLean tonight. Felt that the decisions went pretty much their way tonight. The amount of times they jumped into a Hibs player under high balls and we didn't get the foul was ridiculous.

[Bob1875]

Stonewaller imo

[Scouse Hibee]

My impression was that he got the man before the ball.

Mine too have watched it several times,was a penalty.

[JohnM1875]

My first impression at the game was never a penalty. Having seen it again on Sky Sports News I can see why it was given. Be interesting to see a replay of the foul in the box in McGinn in the first few minutes!

[O'Rourke3]

Wasn't sure TBH. Gutted as Rocky saved twice before it was finally bundled over. Great reaction from the team though never looked like losing a second.

[Risboro Hibby]

Neil Lennon in his post match interview did say he thought it was a penalty. Was just annoyed at his defence being to slow to support Marciano after his 2 great saves

[Danderhall Hibs]

I thought it was a penalty at the time and have just seen it back on SSN - looks like a pen. Ball didn't change direction.

[CyberSauzee]

Grainy image not as promised. File upload failed, I would think because of high bandwidth from followers of other teams wanting to see high quality interaction between intelligent Hibernia supporters; and low quality Sevco yes men masquerading as journalists who want to see how to write to a demographic other than followers of Der Sturmer.

Regarding the pen, some folk will say it's difficult for the ref owing to his position running behind the players, I will say look at the direction the ball takes after the coming together - away from the goal towards the corner in the direction DM's is sliding.

[matty_f]

I thought it was a penalty at the time. We should have had a free kick in the build up though iirc.

[hibee_girl]

I wasn't even sure it was in the box at the game

[My_Wife_Camille]

I wasn't even sure it was in the box at the gameGlad someone else mentioned this. Thought it was just me.

Thats how I saw it.

[The_Horde]

Paused it on sky. Just outside the box. No pen.

Stonewaller from what I've seen unsually rash challenge by Daz but it mattered not in the long run.

[davym7062]

Deffo a pen!!! I had money on 3-1 😀😀😀😀

Probably worked out better for us that it was a penalty, otherwise McGregor would have been sent off. :greengrin

Guy sitting next to my dad had Cummings first goalscorer and 3-1. Wonder if it was you. :wink:

I wasn't too bothered to be honest.....

[Dunbar Hibee]

Will need to see it again but at the time thought it was a pen and Daz was last man. That may have been influenced by the several lagers scooped pre match mind 😀

I see Walker managed to get a wee dive in but McClean didn't book him.

Hanlon will be back mate

As I said, after this, Rocky moves to where DM has hit ball and gathers it. Useless Yam falls over leg. And you can see from Yam's body language he's looking for his wage packet rather than a bruise on his shin.

Ref running behind gives a pen; but ball goes in direction of DM's tackling leg.

[silverhibee]

Mine too have watched it several times,was a penalty.

:agree:

Was Holt onside for his goal, I thought he was marginally off, but we will take it of course. :greengrin:

[silverhibee]

I had that bet as well. :thumbsup:

[FilipinoHibs]

Looks like Darren got a touch on the ball and diverted it and then the Jumbo fell over.

[givescotlandfreedom]

Looked like a foul foul Bartley should have been given at the halfway line then the 'foul' was outside the box. McLean was terrible.

[CMurdoch]

From centre of East it looked like a penalty.
Re McGinn in first half, didn't look like a penalty.

[greenlex]

Was the headed goal that was ruled offside defo offside.? Didn't look like it for me.

It was an absolute stonewaller, no touch on the ball and took the man out. I'm glad it was inside the box or Daz would've been sent off.

[PompeyHibs]

Defo a pen. Darren didnt get enough of the ball. His reaction said it all. He looked like he was worried about getting sent off but thankfully the rules have changed and you dont get that double punishment for a foul in the box for an honest challenge

[hibee_girl]

I had that too, was quite glad when McGregor's goal was ruled off :greengrin

[1two]

I thought it was a pen (if it was inside the box) and mcgregor was lucky to stay on.

I've not seen a replay, that's just what I saw at the time

[Diclonius]

Is that rule a thing now?

[brog]

[QUOTE=RagingReality;4954041]Is that rule a thing now?[/QUOTE

My 1st reaction watching on SSN was with Cyber & that it wasn't a pen as there was clear contact on the ball. The ball definitely changed direction, unless Goncalves was deliberately taking it for a walk to the corner flag to waste time & keep the score down! However, nowadays as DM then made contact with Goncalves a foul would have been given anywhere else on the pitch so technically a pen though I wouldn't have given it! Re that rule being a thing, or that thing being a rule the answer is Yes! The double punishment can still be given but in more extreme examples, eggs punching the ball off the line.

[Callyballybe]

From where I was sitting, looked outside the box. Will have to see the highlights for another look.

[Renfrew_Hibby]

Cowie played Holt on for his goal

I don't think players in the stand count for offside purposes.

Thats funny!

[J-C]

Looked like a penalty from where I was in the east, I think Darren tried to take him out before the box but didn't get there in time, he took one for the team.

[PiemanP]

Looked a pen to me. Even if he got a tiny bit of the ball he does chop down the yam first. Let's hope Hanlon is back soon to cover his suspension.

[HibernianJK]

Looked like a stone waller at the game but not seen any highlights. A lot of Hearts fans asking for him to be sent obviously obvious not aware of the new laws of the game.

[rcarter1]

That was my impression at the time. Thought the ref was giving them a lot of decisions for a spell 2nd half.

[macca70]

Photo evidence clearly shows the initial contact was just outside the box.

I find it hilarious that they had 3 shots on target in the whole game and they were all within 5 seconds:

The penalty - saved
The rebound - saved
The next rebound - bundled over the line

That's what the young lady next to me was saying just before FT.

Rocky made a good save at his left post at 3 1.

[JimBHibees]

No its not if he is genuinely going for the ball it is now a yellow IMO.

[Geo_1875]

He must have been at least a yard onside or the linesman would have made an uneducated guess.

Ive watched it again a few times and its impossible to tell. Daz slides in before making contact, if you look at where his boot hits the turf its outside but its very very close. Probably right on the line.

Not that it matters:greengrin

[JeMeSouviens]

Cowie played Holt on for his goal

Think it's Kitchen, he's onside anyway:

WTF are the defenders doing? The one in the middle looks like he's jumping out of the way and 46 looks like he's shouting at someone. Cathro has trained them well.

I think its called 'streaming':greengrin

[wookie70]

At the game I thought Daz got a touch. Looking at the replay he definitely did. Looking at the footage the contact was outside the box and should have been a free kick. Daz would have been sent off and miss the next round but as he was booked he suffered that fate anyway. The ref was ok last night but again lots of niggly fouls by Hearts with yet again Hibs receiving more booking for less fouls. I think there was a penalty in the game and it was when McGinn was taken down early on.

Just off but an easy decision for the lino as Darren was nearest player to him. Thing was Darren didn't need to be off.

I was in the famous five lower which was probably the worst angle to see it from, and I thought Darren got a touch and that it wasn't in the box. I'm surprised it was even on the edge of the box.

I used to sit in the FF lower and was always amazed at the incredible eyesight of those around me.
They could see in intricate detail what was happening at the Dunbar end and even see through players bodies. I thought they should be on the tele or at least employed by the military. Unfortunately the SFA only employ referees with the eyesight of a mole.

:wink:

[KWJ]

Even if Daz gets a bit of the ball he's not go enough on it. Had he not taken the striker out he'd have still been clean on to it. As been said, yellow and a pen or red and a free kick. Take the yellow and pen at that stage cheers.

[Unseen work]

I don't know why he went to ground.

He looked like he had the pace to get to him and put him off with s shoulder challenge.

[davemcbain]

Looking at the BBC highlights, it looks like it was a) just outside the box and b) got the ball before the man - http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/scotland/39066751 about 3:15 in.

From where the ref was, could understand why it was given though.

Having said that, who cares unless an appeal would rescind the yellow?
