Manslaughter?

Haha, Marshall clearly punches the ball out for a corner and then there's a collision - it's never a penalty

Our one ofcourse is about as blatant as they come - no one can surley argue that fact

The diver comment (not heard it) should see him get a touchline ban

Warnock was Sheff Utd manager at the Battle of Bramall Lane game with west Brom, Derek McInnes fighting, diving, cheating, pretending to be injured (Nick Montgomery on the bench), square goes, so many players sent off the game was abandoned, only match in English football history to be abandoned due to shortage of players.

he knows a bit about cheating.

“If it happens anywhere else on the pitch it’s a foul”

Erm yes, if someone punches the ball elsewhere on the pitch it, it probably is and no, it’s not the same as someone kicking it at head height.

If Warnock has said that about our club then he should be facing charges of bringing the game into disrepute and staring at some time in the stands.

Hibs need to defend ourselves in the face of this slur against our players in the strongest possible terms.

Let’s not just brush this aside and treat the slur as “heat of the moment” stuff.

We knew they'd be dirty clogging industrial hoof ball merchants. Only one of these concepts was/is true. He's a slaver.

It wasn't long before BBC moved on to interviewers asking how good Shanklandstein is for the 100th time and speaking to fans of various clubs who'd not been at their team's game but were on the programme to talk about it. Sure The The fan sounded like he was in Orkney - support yer local club in action 🤔🙄🤪

Warnock is playing the pantomime villain well, as he usually does.

The most depressing thing about it is how ****ing delighted the sportsound pundits are at him doing so, fawning over him being a straight talking contrarian.

I wasn’t such a fan of Paul Heckingbottom as Hibs manager but when he said he would have knocked the fourth officials teeth out if he’d spoken to him in the street in that manner I was pleasantly surprised to hear a manager sticking up for Hibs - Lennon as well in fairness. It was a period where it didn’t feel like the club was pilloried at every opportunity.

Carheenlea
18-02-2024, 07:39 AM
If we don’t speak up in defence of our club, then the narrative that we are “a team of divers” is allowed to grow. We’ve already seen how difficult it is to see penalties being awarded in our favour as things stand, and Warnock’s derogatory remarks won’t do much to see that change any time soon.

“A character”

“A bit of pantomime”

Don’t think for one minute that comments from a high profile personality in football are going to go unnoticed from refereeing officials.

Warnock’s a clown but he’s not stupid. Been in the game long enough. We’re battling it out with Aberdeen for a top 6 place - it could be decided by margins of a penalty here or there.

Warnock is the most anti-football manager in the game.

He instructs his players to injure the opposition and was the master of rotational fouling. His biggest disappointment from yesterday will be that no Hibs player was seriously injured by one of his gang. The battle of Bramall Lane centred around him sending a sub on who immediately committed a terrible foul on Andy Johnston and got sent off again. Down here he was screaming at Monty to break Steve Sidwell's leg when Wally Downes intervened. That followed Warnock sending a sub on who immediately elbowed Stephen Hunt in the face and got sent off. Downes recently expressed regret for his part in the incident - "I should have clumped him harder" were his exact words and I couldn't agree more.

There is absolutely nothing to like about Neil Warnock. He's a despicable little man and the sooner he's out of the game the better.

The other thing he instructed his players to do in that game (aside from the injure your opponent thing) was to start falling over faking injury so once you run out of players youd get the game abandoned. He’s not this jovial old school hard man, hes a sly cheat.

That was actually an excellent and smart save by Marshall. He doesn’t make that punched clearance it’s a certain clear header on goal. He gets there first and makes the save. What happens after is unfortunate but perfectly within the rules. Had he struck the player then the ball it would have different.

Warnock is a choob and should shut his puss, but it would be silly to pretend Boyle doesn’t have a tendency to ‘go down easy’. Both him and Miller are bad for it in our team.

Aberdeen have at least 3 players that were at it a fair bit yesterday and Warnock coming out with that was stupid/mischievous.

With respect, that's just garbage. Tom English for one went straight for him on twitter literally on day one and carried that on yesterday on Radio Scotland after the game. I think English is a tit for a variety of reasons but he isn't having him.

I think you're letting your politics influence your judgement here. They don't see him as doing us a favour by coming to manage a Scottish club, they see him as doing them a favour because he's as 'rentagob' as you can get and that means he effectively makes their lives easier by writeing their headlines and their stories for them.

They aren't even subtle about it, it was the same with Derek Adams when he came out and called the standard of Scottish football rubbish in December. They were creaming themselves live on air for weeks after that before post-match interviews with him and openly salivating about what he might say next.

Hearts do some thing decent - magnify it to the nth degree. Hibs do something decent - crickets.

Hearts screw up - mitigation and soft pedal. Hibs screw up - carnage and chaos.

Tom English for one. Name another? The media up here will wet their pants and hang on his every word because he has managed in England. See also all the ex EPL players who have come up here and been seen as great for our league only to fall flat on their faces. It just doesn't happen with players from anywhere else other than the EPL. And as for letting my politics influence my opinion on a football manager or player, that is just bull****.
It is more a take on how badly the Scottish game is sold and portrayed by those who should be encouraging it. I was actually having that very conversation with a rangers fan at work today and he agreed that we undersell ourselves from Doncaster and the sfa/spfl to our broadcast and print media. This is another example. Bang average manager comes in and gets wall to wall coverage, not based on what he has done but where he has come from

It seemed to me that his comments, were pre rehearsed. A biscuits, sport sound Brian McGlaughlin, dark side response to the Hibernian getting a result, as per. Until we get a different media, I'm afraid its' what we will always be subjected to. Its happened all of my lifetime, and won't change anytime soon unfortunately.

I asked you to name any other broadcaster or pundit who is calling out Warnock. You said there were many. I've not seen or heard any yet. Also the press in Scotland fell over themselves to talk to Butcher, even when he was our manager

No, I really didn't. Do you think they fell over themselves to do that with Butcher because he was English/had managed in England or because he had been the Rangers captain under Souness? They certainly haven't done that with our English league experienced managers which suggests to me that its the 'characters' they're interested in, regardless of where from, because they make their journalistic lives easier.

Can you find these posts? Only an idiot would say we were brilliant or hopeless, anyone with half a brain would recognise that we did some good things and some bad things, and, in an entertaining game, a draw was probably about right, although we clearly should have had a penalty.

That's a fair summary of the game on Saturday - some good, some bad.

I think it gets lost that it was pretty much a must-win game for Aberdeen as well, and as their home game, the draw was worse for them than it was for us.

The draw means both teams are 5 points away from Top Six with only eight games left, instead of potentially being only 3 points behind Dundee if we'd have won. That makes grim reading and that's why I thought it was a 'must-win' game for both teams (the 'must-win' phrase seems to annoy some folk, i'm not sure why!) Dundee is definitely a must-win, and then the derby is just a free hit, very low expectations.

That’s the grim reality of where we are at the moment.

It reminds me a bit of the relegation season where it was “just win the next one”, it went on and on until that game against Killie when Boyd scored is bajillionth goal against us and the rest is *****y, *****y history.

As much as I hate Aberdeen, can’t help but think getting rid of Livi and St Johnstone would be the better outcome. 2 no mark teams with no fans who we seem to struggle against, plus get rid of that disgrace of a pitch at Livi.

Aberdeen go down and it may result in them sorting themselves out when they inevitably come back up. Like when we returned in 2017,
or as hearts have done in recent times. Let them stay up and languish around 9th in the league.

Same here...I think it's a ludicrous appointment, and I'd thought the Hibs Board had taken leave of their senses if we'd appointed him.

He's good for a headline or two and that's about it...Our illustrious press who are collectively as thick as he is think he's good copy though, which tells you all you need to know.

The thing that would worry me were I a Dons fan is that squad. It really is a league of nations, highly disparate bunch. Not sure they can rely on togetherness. Add in Warnock slating them, and also the fact he's on a short term contract so players may not bust a gut for him, and the recipe is ripe for a fall from grace. Very Butcheresque situation.

I tend to agree though, Miovski will maybe shoot them out of trouble. If they hadn't had him in good form this season they would be in all sorts of serious bother.

What a basket case of a club. Warnock wins a big game for them today and now he's done. He's collected a tidy sum from them for a few months of failure.

Probably been told he can go of his own accord or the club makes the decision.

What a ridiculous way to run a football club and no wonder English managers see Scottish football as a cash cow to top up their pension pots and massage their wee ego's on their fleeting visits.

They just take the absolute pish but you can hardly blame them as Scottish supporters are just ripe for being walked all over and by god we should know with our huge payouts and mind numbing, simpering

Thing is, Hecky was a decent guy and was apparently brilliant with the players, particularly on the way out. He’s also shown himself since to be a good manager who probably was with us at the wrong time.

Collins was possibly the right man at the wrong time. Would have liked to see him under the more modern and professional Hibs post Petrie. Same with Mixu, he went away after Hibs for a year watching football around Europe and digesting his time at Hibs. Came back a better manager at Killie for it. Though neither went on to better after Hibs.

Agree with your general point though. Mowbray the last manager we got on the way up?

General pattern is takes over a team with a good budget in comparison for the league they are in, short to mid term results, then it collapses. Anything longer than a one year deal would be madness.

We wouldn’t hire him if we were in a bottom of the table scrap with a semi final.

Aberdeen have announced this afternoon that they've 'drawn up a shortlist' and will be asking other clubs for permission to speak to the managers they want to interview, which seems odd considering they apparently ditched Warnock because they were on the brink of appointing someone. All sounds shambolic behind the scenes.

It’s a strange one: the guy appointed on a temporary basis leaves early. It makes no sense; there is probably more to it than what has been said. Warnock claims it’s so a new manger can get a couple of months looking at the squad this season. Then why not say that when approached? He should have told Aberdeen he didn’t feel a stop-gap appointment was a good idea in the first place.

This makes Aberdeen look clueless. All very strange.

Bit harsh. He's been in management over 40 years and got eight sides promoted. I used to watch Notts County way back when he took them to the top flight and he seemed a decent enough bloke. Sure, he's a bit of a relic now but it was Aberdeen who decided to appoint him rather than him touting himself for the job.

Agree about the media fawning over Clement but there's no getting away from the fact Rangers have landed a gem there.

Neil Warnock has had an excellent managerial career. 8 promotions and probably saved as many from the drop.
