Brian Rice not happy on Sportsound :grr:
What's he moaning about this week?

Quite entertaining.
Brian Rice took great umbrage to the Sportsound guy's take on the Hamilton 0 St. Mirren 3 game. After the tense and terse interview, the reporter finished with a very sheepish thankyou ..
I heard the Sportsound one, but Clyde ScoreboardQuote:

Reporters, like the tv media guys, pick their fights. I'm sure the straight to the jugular questions wouldn't be posed to the OF imho. Martin Boyle-in his Speedos:greengrin-being singled out recently being another such example. For that reason alone..good on Chipper. I think it's lazy journalism when just because you lose 3-0, you are then told you were rubbish..sometimes you play fairly well but things go against you along the way..that was Brian's point.
Bad referees can cost people their jobs yet they carry on largely unscathed. I quite like it when managers call them out so publicly, it won't change anything of course but it's fun to listen to.
No idea what the pundits said to upset him but I always think managers owe it to the fans to address the questions properly. Maybe that response was merited on this occasion though.
Ian McCall also greeting about decisions today, what’s new?
Get in there chipper. Rangers haven’t had one penalty against them this season, but as he says when anyone goes down in their box it’s a penalty. I wish more people would call out the shocking referees in this country.
To be fair its not often the ball has been in Rangers penalty box this season.Quote:

We clearly should’ve had one at Ibrox.Quote:

Sounds good, but in practive it would be a waste of our time.Quote:

Quite possibly mate but doesn't alter the fact that the ball hasn't been in Rangers penalty box very often this season.Quote:

He should've been told to go take one but they all kissed his #ss instead.
Maybe not the right time to mention it but I remember Brian Rice as a fantastic , classy player with us who deserved far more recognition than he got maybe because he coincided with a poor Hibs team . One memory was a game at Dens Park where he scored the only goal of the game to give us a rare win there , possibly the only time I`ve seen Hibs win there in about 12 visits . I remember I had to leave early to catch the last train only for train to break down on Tay Bridge for about an hour . Anyway , Rice was a great player for Hibs and seems to be a more than decent manager .
To be fair I don't think anyone that seen him play for us underrates him. He was our best player for the relatively short time he was in our first team then went on to have a decent career at Nottingham Forest. As you say a very classy player.Quote:

I remember being right behind the goal when that goal v DU went in . Will have to check dates when he played for us - probably coincides with a time when I went to almost every match home or away .Quote:

Enjoyed watching that . Thanks . Strangely enough in that season ( 1982 / 83 ) I think I went to every match home and away till late Feb / early March when I went to France ( Aix les Bains near Alps ) to work . In France I didn`t see any of our matches on telly but remember Aberdeen winning European trophy and did Dundee United not win league that year ? I thought I`d started working in France in early March 1983 but results suggest there was no other 3 v 3 draw v Dundee United with a goal by Brian Rice . Anyway he was a very classy player who for some reason or other didn`t seem to get much recognition .Quote:

Aye he was a gifted and very skilful as a player, it was Brian Clough that signed him for NF and he knew a player.Quote:

TBF I interpreted this as 3 recent calls in a lifetime of being involved in football.Quote:

No, not in the tunnel, during the game though he even states himself that he saw nothing!! But he’s demanding the player gets punished anyway.Quote:
