Ross McCrorrie

[Stokesy's on fire]

What a total disaster he has turned out to be. Rolls Royce player...Na!

[Svengali]

Remember he was giving it the big one ‘we expect to come here and win’. After they narrowly beat us 1-0 at ER, through a penalty.

Yep. 4 defeats and a draw at Easter Road since then. Daft hun *******. Oh, and twice finished below Hibs.

I'd be raging if I was an Aberdeen fan , absolute disgrace of a performance yesterday.

[BILLYHIBS]

Money grabbing Dud

File beside Ojo

[Big_Franck]

So glad we didn't sign him. He's bang average even when he's playing at his best. He'll be on a decent wage there as well.

[LeithMike]

I thought he was Aberdeen’s best player and looked really good at full back, particularly going forward. Remarked that I’d take him at Hibs and chap beside me agreed.

Funny old game.

He was brutal yesterday.

Not a patch on Scales though. He put in one or the worst individual performances I have ever seen at Easter Road. He looked like he had been plucked from the crowd. I almost felt sorry for him, his ineptitude was verging on embarrassing.

McCrorrie not great but he could have done a job for us. He can cover a few positions. Plays most weeks. A big athletic player in the right team.

The lads certified dug crap. For long enough now he has struggled and now the Aberdeen fans are even calling for him to be emptied

[Cat Stanton]

I think (?) he was played out of position yesterday? One of the match reports was pointing out that Goodwin was playing various players out of position, McCrorie included.

[green day]

I don't think he's crap, hes suffering from being played in all sorts of positions because he can.

A bit like Campbell last season.

Keep him in midfield, he's a good player.

[Clarence]

Thought he was one player that kept going yesterday. As said by others, is played all over the park by the last two managers.

Scales however , was absolutely shocking yesterday. Looked like he’d won a competition let alone being good enough to play for them.

He should be used as DM would have him in our team playing in that position.

Dont want him near our club, he took great pleasure in turning us down for them. He's been hung out to dry by Dons though. Probably a midfielder and thats all!

I was saying to my mates after the Darvel game on Monday, and again yesterday, that it’s astonishing that Postecoglu signed Scales for Celtic. He’s ****ing hopeless.

[04Sauzee]

If a 6'3 McCrorie gets out-muscled by 6' Youan then I'd have him nowhere near my team

I don’t think he did take pleasure in going to Aberdeen before us. He was on the verge of signing for us, jersey had been printed etc. but, at the very last minute, mainly due to the belligerence of Gerrard, the deal fell through and Aberdeen jumped in and got him. He probably felt obliged or was persuaded to make a thing of going up there.

Not just a story. I heard it from someone who witnessed the ‘event’. Gerrard was quite belligerent and insulting towards Hibs.
A lot of folk think butter wouldn’t melt in his mouth but he, apparently, can be really sneaky and unpleasant.

Only see one angle to be fair, and looks like all he's done has put his arms up to try and get in front of the player and run past him. Be interesting to see another angle

Same angle I watched as well. I can see why it's given with the intent rules no longer a thing. But that's a complete accident and he's trying to run past a player.

Yep, and the only reason he even has to do that is cos the St Mirren boy tries to stop him going past.

That's a red, that last little movement with the elbow was unnatural/unnecessary.

Plus it's Aberdeen so it's funny

VAR and refereeing opinions summed up perfectly in this thread.

Agreed. You can't lift your arm and smash a player in the face as you run at pace and then be surprised to see a red card.

[JimBHibees]

Thought it was a red strange to put your elbow up like that.

[RyeSloan]

Agreed. You can't lift your arm and smash a player in the face as you run at pace and then be surprised to see a red card.

What about if the other player has deliberately impeded you, throwing you off balance which causes your arms to move in order that you don’t immediately face plant the grass?

For me it’s just really unlucky and there is no intent what so ever.

But I can see why some (incl the Ref) would think otherwise.

Either way it’s rather enjoyable seeing Aberdeen implode so successfully [emoji1787]

[HarpOnHibee]

If you slow the footage down, McCrorrie begins the process of raising his arms upwards just before the St Mirren player begins to reach out (at waist height) to impede his run. There was no good reason for McCrorrie to raise his arms that high. If he wanted to try and fend off the impediment, he could have kept his arms at chest level. He knew what he was doing by raising his arm up to the face.

Mind Mcrorie has skinned him and moving dangerously in on St mirrens goal

I can see why it's been given. I think some decisions are open to interpretation and if I could make a legitimate case either way then I would accept the ref's decision.

This is why refs including the VAR twats should be explaining the decision. Then we can disagree with their interpretations instead of guessing.

[Since452]

Another example of poor play and awarenes by McCrorie. You can't have your arms up like that.

Agree could easily have pushed Dunne rather than have his elbow that high. Still a red for me.

[wallpaperman]

Interesting how we see it so differently, not a sending off for me, the defender is trying to rugby tackle him, McCrorrie’s raising his arms to try and shrug him off.

They said on the radio that VAR took an absolute age to look at it. Then the ref took an age to look at the screen.

For me, that tells its own story. If you look at something long enough, when you’re actually looking for something, you’ll see it.

They should have a limit on the length of time a VAR review can take. Some of them sitting on VAR are more interested in trying to re-referee the game.

I've seen it 3 times and can't see how it's anything other than a straight red, a forearm smash to the noggin Mick McManus would have been proud of.

It is interesting actually and shows that VAR is still only based on human opinion. And we can have different ones. Most of us thought Marshall was fouled on Tuesday. The VAR folk didn't. Other way round last night. I don't think it's improved things at all.

I think it is showing how corrupt Scottish football is though. Football is a fairly simple game, so most decisions the refs have to make are pretty straightforward, but there will always be some that are a bit less clear cut, like McRorrie's red. You'd expect the clear cut ones to be called correctly 95% of the time and the borderline one's to even out over a season so teams generally get a similar number falling in their favour - allowing for a bit of human error and matters of opinion. Is that happening, or are some teams getting a balance of decisions very much in their favour while others suffer?

FWIW, I thought it was a red. Looked like a deliberate forearm smash to me, but accept others would see it differently.

[erin go bragh]

Doesn’t even look a yellow but hell mend him for signing for them

Reminded of what Gascoigne did constantly for Rangers. Ironically one of the worst games for it was against Aberdeen at Ibrox - bet they weren't thinking the odd swinging arm wasn't so innocuous then.

I've said that from the start.

VAR is meant to fix clear and obvious errors, so by definition anything that takes longer than 60 seconds can't be clear and obvious.

Mind you, VAR couldn't even see a clear and obvious foul on Marshall on Tuesday regardless of how long it took.
