Sunday's Games (St Lie Down 3 Hearts 2)

Dundee down to 10 men in their derby

**hibbysam** · 17-03-2013 11:28 AM

Horrendous decision!!

Yet again ref took no thinking time at all, straight out with the red card.

Yes Dundee have committed a few fouls but its a derby, Passion and fight is a must!

But that decision is where referee's lack of understanding of the game itself is a killer.

To head a ball you have to lead with an arm, its impossible not to.. Was it dangerous? Not really more mistimed...

Correct decision IMO.

Dundee have been thuggish so far. I understand getting stuck in, but they're far too fired up.

Manager to blame for that.

Really need Dundee to take something to have any chance of top 6.

**~~God Petrie~~** · 17-03-2013 11:37 AM

Come on you dees. Lets have another 86 st mirren Dundee double for the cabbage!

**HUTCHYHIBBY** · 17-03-2013 11:37 AM

Shocking decision, the knee high challenge by the left back that didnae result in a red balances it off I suppose.

**hibeedonald** · 17-03-2013 11:41 AM

Would be a ****ing miracle for us if Dundee get something from this game.

No danger, their tactics have been spot on and they are doing exactly what they should be, they know UTD are a better team so they are putting in the challenges to try unsettle them.

Amount of times I've seen us be too nice against hearts, and crying out for players to put themself about and go through them at times.

Manager is to applauded for this imo.

They've committed a few niggly fouls, nothing extreme at all... What should they do? Stand back and admire United and let them run rings around them?

The sending off is an incident of its own, if the ref takes the rest of the game into consideration he ain't doing his job properly..

You HAVE to lead with your arm when heading a ball thats in front of you, Its impossible not to!

But that arm doesn't HAVE to go clattering into the back of your opponents heid. I think that was probably the issue the ref had with that "challenge"

**Hibs90** · 17-03-2013 11:54 AM

Very soft red card.

I disagree, you don't have to lead with your arm at all, certainly not at the height that he did.

Still feel it was a harsh sending off tho.

Why do these refs spoil games like this? Joke red card, of course they'd always bottle it when it was a Rantic derby.

***hibbymick*** · 17-03-2013 11:57 AM

Did we not want ian black sent off for a similar challenge ??

**Hibs90** · 17-03-2013 11:58 AM

Can see why the referee has sent him off to be fair, but soft never the less.

**lyonhibs** · 17-03-2013 12:21 PM

A 12 year old has just come on for Dundee United.

This.

Not a huge difference between the 2 challenges. In saying that both are yellows.

Really? So jumping forwards from a couple of yards away, where does your arm go? Have you ever tried to jump without your arms?

I mean I play football and if i tried that leap without my arm, You'd be going headfirst and have no control over your body at all...

YASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS 1-0 the Dee... Ryan Conroy!!

**EdinMike** · 17-03-2013 12:25 PM

Come on Dundee !! 0-1 !!

**macca70** · 17-03-2013 12:26 PM

Pick it oot, what a finish!!

**Pretty Boy** · 17-03-2013 12:27 PM

Yes, come on the Dees.

Top 6 still in if this result stays the same and also keeps Dundee there or thereabouts should anything happen financially at Hearts in the next few weeks.

***cabbageandribs1875*** · 17-03-2013 12:27 PM

att: 10,731

**carnoustiehibee** · 17-03-2013 12:28 PM

Yessss Dundee.

cant stand utd

I've played senior and junior for a number of years and now in the management side of things and know for a fact you can jump without having your arms up like that.

From that distance away? not a chance!

Where do your arms go in that instance then? So now were wanting them to put arms by there side and "Pencil jump" therefore getting no height whatsoever?
