The Sportscene Thread

[Danderhall Hibs]

Sauzee neither.

It makes absolute sense to want to do something else when you retire. People who talk about sport for the entirety of their lives are probably missing out on something.

It’s Thompson’s job and he’s basically said he doesn’t like it. That’s all - just a strange thing to admit publicly like that I thought.

[Peevemor]

That's true actually, although I think it was at least 5-10 years ago, and it wasn't particularly regular. I haven't seen him on French TV for a long time.

He's still there, working for Canal+.

You can hear him well enough in the background here (it's the first video, but you might have to click "voir" or "watch" to see it because of Franck's bad language).

I think he’s a really good pundit, as is Michael Stewart.

I’m surprised he doesn’t like football but maybe that’s just what he says to separate himself from all the Rangers dafties and all that goes along with playing for them, as he did for a while.

Also maybe having the ability to detach himself from the game might actually help him in a strange sort of way.

Is his passion not music? I seem to remember he was in a band and perhaps wrote a cup final song for one the teams he played for.

Marc Libbra is the same. I remember him saying when he was with us was that the reason he didn't really celebrate goals and always looked in a mood, was that he didn't like football and only played it because he was good at it. For him, football was just a job.

See, you only think you were wrong in the past, because you became a season ticket holder this season and lost your walk up mojo. Surreptitiously and immediately, you knew less, and therefore didn't realise it and thought you knew more.

These self fulfilling prophecies are a slippery slope.

Oran Kearney quoted as complaining about Kamberi holding 2 St Mirren players at the goal, as were the St Mirren TV commentators.

Watch it back on Sportscene you'll see the same 2 St Mirren players a few seconds before are holding Gray and Kamberi. As Mallan is about to take the corner, Gray shakes off the one holding him and runs backwards whilst Kamberi blocks the 2 of them.

They were doing the holding first and then we did, it's just that Kamberi did a better job of it.

It's fairly common for defenders to block opponents' runs, etc. at corners and free kicks, but this is the first time I've seen it so blatantly working for the attacking team. Another referee might not have let the goal stand.

Funny how Stewart and Thompson picked up on Kamberi's fouling at Grey's goal, yet missed Brophy taking out the Motherwell defender for Stewart's goal.
For a while now I've wondered if obstruction has been removed from football altogether, shepherding the ball out of play with no intention of playing it, before it was an indirect freekick, now the player gets booked for trying to play the ball?????

Aberdeen are a nasty side and that tackle is a shocker. Sending off was merited, but no foul given. For our game to progress our refs need to get firmer on dirty play. Football should be allowed to thrive and Aberdeen have been as bad as any team in recent years for the cynical approach.

I’m wondering how Flo was able to just hold two St Mirren players. He’s a strong laddie but surely he’s not able to just hold two professional footballers as easily as that.

St Mirren players weren’t strong enough IMO and I think they probably knew that which is why they didn’t complain at all.

Can just imagine Kamberi holding two big physical players like a Boyata, Berra, Broadfoot or some other big huddy I can’t think of just now.

[weecounty hibby]

The Hibs goal was a well worked training ground move. We won, kept a clean sheet, moved second in the league, took as many away fans to Paisley than attended Hamiltons match, are playing good football, have our own academy players regularly playing but still we are not getting much credit for all of that. Long may it continue and hopefully we can keep going and upset the **** fest that is BBC Jambo at the moment

Not sure I agree with the chaps’ analysis of the Hibs goal. Green tinted maybe but as far as I can see the St Mirren defenders are also grappling as if they fear Kamberi as the target of the ball in.

That goal would've been chalked off at the World cup, they clapped down on all the wrestling in the box, Kamberi was very strong to hold off the 2 St Mirren players but it was a clear foul, he just needs to be more cute in future. It was a well worked training ground manoeuvre but on another day it may have been seen as a foul, I'll still take it though.

I found it interesting, and it was pointed out by Steven Thomphson, that there was no protest from the St Mirren players afterwards. Tbf Thompson did give credit to Hibs for it being a well-worked goal.

If it had been the World Cup, as David Gray was freeing himself from the grasp of the St Mirren defender he could have fallen over and it would have been a penalty.

It was well worked training ground move that gave us a goal, Kamberi did what he had to do and that was to use his body strength to give Gray the space, another ref may have seen Kamberi using his arms to hold the defenders back, this time he got away with it, another time maybe not. A win is a win and all these things even themselves out during a season, some are seen and some are not.

Kilmarnock forward Jordan Jones faces a potential two-game ban for diving after being cited by the Scottish FA.


Jones has been issued with a notice of complaint for simulation as a result of going down in the box to win the decisive penalty in Kilmarnock's 2-1 win at Dundee on Saturday.


Footage suggested there was no contact on Jones from Dundee's Cammy Kerr.


give him a 12 match ban, might make some others think twice about falling over :agree:

I think he tried to turn inside but his momentum took him the other way.

Having watched it many times, i dont think he dived, but simply tripped over himself?

And when doing so, he did not claim for a penalty, which those who normally dive do.

Sometimes players do fall over without being fouled, and i think in this instance he should be cleared, but i can see why they might take the other option and keep the two game ban.

The main gripe i have is how the ref saw it as a trip, he had a clear view of the incident and if he see's this as a trip then he clearly has eyesight trouble and needs to be assessed again by the SFA and an optician.

I'm convinced he just caught his feet on the ground and tripped over. As you say he doesn't claim for penalty, he just puts his head in his hands as he knows if he stayed up he was through on goal.

Could argue he should tell the ref he wasn't fouled but realistically no player is doing that and if it was one of your players that did, as a fan you'd be furious.

As I said above, I think he tripped, he wasn't diving. Thinking a bit more about this, if I was the player I'd be claiming I didn't say it was a penalty however when the ref blew and gave the penalty I assumed I must have been mistaken when I thought I tripped and it was actually a foul which the ref saw.

A player can't be punished for accepting a referee's decision.

[NadeAteMyLunch!]

A player can't be punished for accepting a referee's decision.

They can if they’ve cheated to influence the referees decision. That’s like saying Lafferty shouldn’t have been punished for that pathetic dive a few years back because the referee decided that the Aberdeen player head butted him. He conned the ref, as Jones did last week.
Also, he didn’t claim for the pen, IMO, as he instantly regretted diving and knew how bad it would look on the TV. Doesn’t make it any less of a ‘crime’ though.

I would love to think the referee and link's learn from the compliance officers stance with Jordan Jones and make good decisions, also hope the compliance officer becomes consistent with his retrospective decision making for all teams ...but I doubt it !! Whilst I totally agree in the Jones outcome ...There are.far worse situation that have taken place involving stampjng, kicking out, cynical tackles, which the compliance officer has done nothing ...hugely inconsistent and therefore totally inept at the job ...supported ably it would seem by his equally useless bisses. Threads about woeful refereeing and compliance decisions will be with us every week of the season.

Think we are saying the same thing? He’s being punished for cheating ie diving. The ref deciding it was a pen doesn’t make it any less cheating on Jones part.
I agree with the point above though there has been far worse ignored by the farce that is the Compliance officer this season. I’m sure the first time a player from one of the lesser teams kicks an opponent off the ball, that will become a retrospective red card offence again [emoji849]

He didn't dive or try to con the ref he just made an arse of it. :agree:

I demanded Butcher's sacking in February.

If only the board had listened

[Weegreenman]

Paul Hanlon part to blame in both goals. Poor poor defending all round. Boyle couldn’t tackle a fish supper.

[cleanyman]

Hanlon looks even worse on the replays

[lapsedhibee]

Strange, pundits didn't mention anything about us being likely relegation candidates.

[joebakerforever]

Hanlon's shortcomings brutally exposed on highlights, static & slow, should have been able to intervene & prevent both Dundee goals.

IMO, was worst Hibs player on the day

[J-C]

Hanlon very poor for both goals, napping for the 1st and caught wrong side for the 2nd when he should've shown McGowan to the outside, slow and poor decision making.

[Spike Mandela]

Hanlon understandably rusty perhaps.

[Iggy Pope]

Strange, pundits didn't mention anything about us being likely relegation candidates.

Curiously, I doubt the Aberdeen forums are beating themselves up about this either.

[Smartie]

Hanlon very poor for both goals, napping for the 1st and caught wrong side for the 2nd when he should've shown McGowan to the outside, slow and poor decision making.

I thought Hanlon was played pretty well tbh, but was caught out for both of the goals, horribly for the second one meaning that he has to be held largely culpable for us throwing the game away.

[coldingham hibs]

Hanlon looks even worse on the replays

Hanlon was really poor yesterday, he looked way off the pace and very laboured. I was surprised he was put straight into the starting line up after a long lay off, really unfair on him.

[CMurdoch]

From the highlights shown:
At 1-0 Boyle shoots from a poor angle instead of playing it to Kamberi at the front post for a tap in.
Later in the 1st half there is the double shot from MacLaren in the box. Instead of taking the 2nd shot he should have squared the ball to Kamberi to his right who had a tap in.
The goal called offside was very tight and on another day might have been given.

The Dundee goals
1st - non existant challenge from Boyle as the guy heads for the dead ball line on the left wing and then Mallan who is running alongside fails to make the block and the ball is squared for Miller who has got himself on front of Hanlon at the front post. IMO opinion Mallan had the best chance to prevent it but made a powder puff challenge.

2nd goal - Milligan slightly too far forward and gets wrongside of McGowan receiving the ball who then turns away from him and heads towards the Hibs goal and Hanlon who must force him outside but over compensates and McGowan cuts inside and hits an unsaveable shot past Bogdan. Ultimately must blame Paul for this goal although Milligans initial mistake set McGowan on his way.

[PatHead]

Some goal from the St Mirren player.

[B.H.F.C]

Seeing the goals back, our ‘attempts’ at making a tackle in the build up to both were absolutely pathetic.

[SHODAN]

Some goal from the St Mirren player.

That it was.

[blackpoolhibs]

I thought Hanlon was played pretty well tbh, but was caught out for both of the goals, horribly for the second one meaning that he has to be held largely culpable for us throwing the game away.

I'm surprised at Hanlon being so at fault with both goals, as he's normally reliable, but he's another who's coming back from injury and rusty.

We played well enough to be well in front, also miss a few other decent chances through decision making and poor finishing that our mess of a midfield had created.

But poor defending put paid to all that.

[cleanyman]

Since Hibs won we can watch again

On at 6

[whiskas]

I’m still incredulous that anyone can think that tackle by Brown isn’t a straight red

[Carheenlea]

Tackle on Slivka looked worse on TV alright. Shame the highlights are so brief, but that’s where Hibs TV’s value comes in.

[Saturday Boy]

Bizarrely, the post-mortem was better than the highlights package.

If you weren’t at the game, you’d think we stole 3 points.

Whitaker stands his ground. No foul. Maybe not a dive but Whitaker doesn't have to get out of the way just because Edouard runs at him.

Scott Brown tackle is definitely a red card. Late, high, off his feet, out of control. Nowhere near the ball.

[calumhibee1]

Nope. Although after Candeias managed to appeal a yellow card earlier in the season then who knows, they make it up as they go along.

Whittaker does catch him but as you say he's holding his ground with nowhere to really go. Possibly a free kick but Edouard makes a meal of it after regaining his balance only to go down because he knows Efe was getting to it before him.

[Hermit Crab]

That penalty for Hearts. :confused: :dunno:

No shock Livi have appealed Jack Hamilton's red card at Dundee yesterday.

Utterly shambolic level of officiating to send him off!

[Geo_1875]

Did the Hamilton keeper get a finger to Smith's penalty? Looked to me like Smith put it onto the bar then headed the rebound but no free-kick given.

Definitely looked like an obvious free kick to Hamilton, but no mention from the sportscene team or any of the football experts on this forum. Maybe they dont know the rules of the game.

I like Stewart and think he's a good pundit. I'm not sure working with Sutton has been good for him though. The two of them like an argument with each other and Stewart seems to be taking that argumentative stance with him wherever he goes now. I watched that show on the Ladbrokes facebook page picking the joint Hibs/Hearts team and he came across as a bit of a dick to Darryl Currie (who i'm sure is his mate so got the joke probably better than it came across).

I also think he could do with distancing himself from his mate 'Christophe' when doing the punditry. After the Livi game Stewart was scathing about Sean Clare for not getting up off one knee quick enough but never said a peep about Christophe lying on the ground watching it.

Overall, he's not perfect but he's a million times better than Charlie Nicholas, Andy Walker or Davie Provan at Sky.

Yeah St Mirren fan growing up. Lived next to Barry Lavety.

It’s not a popular opinion but I think the modern day pundits are great.

They used to roll out the same old tired faces, most with old firm connections and were part of everything that was wrong with Scottish football.

Stewart, Thomson, Sutton, Craigan and the rest are a breath of fresh air in my opinion.

Would hate to be stuck in a lift with Stewart but he hates Craig Levein and most of what he says is spot on, despite the way he presents it.

What's the point in the pundits saying 'it's a red' when it's already been established earlier this season that you're allowed to kick out at people?

[Jim44]

Hun Thompson said McNulty should have been red carded so the compliance officer will be looking at it. A Celtic player kicked a Motherwell player on the head at head height and I don’t think the ref even booked him. The Sportscene detectives didn’t even consider the incident.

If you watch the replay, McGowan’s foul goes on for at least 20 yards and ends up with him throwing McNulty to the ground then intentionally kneeing him in the thigh. By the time McNulty commits the so called kick out at McGowan his head is buried in the grass with McGowan pushing down on him. McNulty has no way of knowing where McGown is. McGowan’s boot then comes into contact with McNulty’s head. McGowan committed at least three fouls during the incident and McNulty was upside down with his head planted in the turf when the movement of his foot took place. There’s no way that should be a red for McNulty. McGowan should have been off.

MSM have always picked out & ignored key incidents during matches (off-sides, pen claims, tackles etc). It's always been an irritant, especially to non-OF fans, as the media follow followed their own agenda.

But it feels like we've moved into a new and sinister phase, where producers, media owners and pundits are deliberately campaigning for post-match action by the "compliance officer" driven by their own personal or corporate interests. Social media has seriously weakened MSM relevance, but now they've a new purpose - creating the news and affecting the management of the game directly.

Saturday's MOS was a good example. Dundee v Hibs match was a great game with 6 goals, but they dedicated the whole of the first third of the report to .... McNulty's phantom kick out. The only surprise was it wasn't repeated in the Editors Comment section, supported with the compliance officer's phone number. They had so much to say about McNulty's vicious attack that left the Dundee player unconscious and hospitalised that they had no room left to even mention the Dundee player's deliberate boot on Milligan's head.

You missed the final bit when McGowan had his leg wrapped around McNulty’s ankle preventing him from getting up. It seemed deliberate provocation to try and get McNulty to kick out and get red carded.

I noticed the stats, we had 13 shots with 6 on target with Rangers had 19 with 6 on target, the way that game was edited it looked like we had 2 attempts all game and Rangers dominated the whole 90 mins, the possession was 45% to us and 55% to them, much closer than Sportscene portrayed.

More concerned at the reception they would get on their next visit to either of these places upon their next pilgrimage to lap up their heroes.
