Moaning his tits off as usual about everyone bar him. Genuine grievance regarding the Rangers goal being offside but it’s strange that ‘Mr Happy’ isn’t cracking his usual witty jokes when there’s been an injustice in a game. Hang on, of course it wasn’t to Hearts benefit.

And, why oh why does he feel the need to bring up Neil Lennon moaning about a game a month ago. Man’s obsessed.

I think he was just using it as an example of us not getting the decisions against the OF. It's fair.

He only brought up Lennon to ensure the SFA don’t punish him. Lennon got away with saying the same after we lost at Parkhead.

It is funny watching Levein lose it over decisions though. It’s all just a good laugh eh Craig?

He could have brought up any SPFL manager to use as an example for that to be fair.😀

I think he brought up Lennon because everything Levein strives to acheive, everything he targets for Hearts and everything he considers important in football is seen through the prism of Hearts over Hibs.

I can’t remember this kind of ‘whataboutery ‘ from one manager about another manager in an interview before.

“It was like playing against twelve men today”


What about the linesman?

”It was like playing against thirteen men today”

The Rangers had a man sent off

” As Neil Lennon said after the Celtic game it was like playing against twelve men today” :confused:

Potter never said it Lenny said it! :confused:

Did he not mention the studs up tackle that Clare made on someone ?

He found out the real meaning of 'Natural Order' yesterday.

Karma, Craigie boy.

No snidey wee laughy jokey comments yesterday. Why? It didn't go his way.

I hope the book that get's thrown at him is in the large category.

:agree: Yes he was covering his back. Afraid that criticising a referee might get him in trouble, he brings up NL so that he can point the finger if he is cited. After all, The Rangers have been cited for their recent outburst and so other clubs/managers will realise that SFA will feel the need to balance the books

It was a good laugh, wasn’t it?!

Remember his meltdown years ago, when he was Dundee United manager, after his team had been robbed at Ibrox? Perhaps he's a bit thick, but he should know by now how it works against the Old Firm. This isn't news.

**** him. His hurt and snotty tears makes me happier.

Blatantly bringing Lennon into it to try to cover his arse for criticising the ref. Needs to grow a backbone, Levein. Rolls over to get his tummy tickled by the Glasgow teams near enough every time they play, can't even moan about the ref properly any more.

They beat the champions this season and hammered them last?

He's pretty much correct in everything he says & if these comments came from any other manager then I'm sure he would have 100% support from this board. Coming from Levein however it reeks of hypocrisy. His real complaint is that The Rangers were better at gamesmanship & cheating than Hawrts were! Time for some extra training in fouling, diving & whingeing Craigie boy!

If you look at his record against the Glasgow teams it will be pitiful. Especially when they're not on a pitch they can alter for maximum anti-football.

Had to laugh when he moaned about Morelos and his nasty antics.

He has 11 sneaky, snidey, fouling, diving *******s on the pitch every derby.

I’m sure there’ll be plenty on KB that want him to calm down and be more professional etc etc.

Ref and Linesman both miss perfectly legit goal for Hibs at Tynecastle that would probably have won the game.

-- No complaints and a joke about 'maybe being a couple of inches over the line'


Blatantly bad decision against Hearts at Tynecastle.

-- The world's against us, it's an SFA conspiracy and it's just no funny, OK!!

What happened to Craig the joker, you know the one that was about up until the end of October. Every poor decision by a ref was funny, granted that most of them were going his way but still funny weren't they? He is a perennial failure and the natural order is coming round for him again. Failed in every job he has ever had in football. No winners medals as a player or manager after more than 1000 games! How did his time as director of hoofball go as well? Aye that's right failure, no trophies Craigy boy, that will be how your remembered. A man I would dislike even if he was Hibs U8s manager, never mind hearts manager

Yeah! What ever happened to the happy go lucky chirpy Mr Potter that was only too happy to crack jokes and shoot the breeze with Sports Commentators way back when they won the League back in September?
Or was it October ? Anyway we said it wouldn’t last ! :greengrin
