Probably right, might have been told not to go, and defied orders

Dundee don't think they're going to make the grade.

harsh if this was the real reason for them being released

**Pretty Boy** · 20-03-2015 06:50 PM

Suppose it depends on the rest of the story.

Had they gone and sat in neutral seating, say as the guest of another player, and informed the club then they might have been ok. If they have done a Lee Clark then they have really given Dundee little choice.

***Northernhibee*** · 20-03-2015 06:50 PM

Never been able to put my finger on why but never liked Dundee FC.

The real crux of the matter.

If both players were worth big transfer fees they wouldn't have been released.

**Wheat Hound** · 20-03-2015 07:19 PM

I take it they'll release Paul McGowan once he's jailed then?

Good question. They should release him now that he's admitted attacking a police officer. The THIRD time he's done this!

**DH1875** · 20-03-2015 07:45 PM

Has to be more to the story. Guy's from all teams go to see their team all the time. Plenty of players have been to see Hibs play when they were with another team.

***3pm*** · 20-03-2015 07:48 PM

They must be pish.

No morals in fitba. If they were any good they'd still be there.

Don't tell me what happened, first time I've seen this and it's 0-0. Some guy with a moustache coming on. I wonder if 'the famous' can win the league title?

I'm sure Tam McManus went to watch a Celtic game and the excuse that was released was that he was told to go and watch Henrik Larsson and learn from the experience.

Aye, and the tannoy played "Believe It If You Like".

**Bronson** · 20-03-2015 08:11 PM

This is nonsense, if that's the real reason then it's the most petty dismissal I've ever heard.

***hibees 7062*** · 20-03-2015 10:12 PM

They were pished

I think that there's no way that they would have been released just because they went to watch a football match and support a rival team.

There has to be more to it than that.

**stormchild** · 21-03-2015 05:14 AM

Celtic supporter at work took a photo of Cifcti(spelling?) sitting in beside the Celtic support for the semi final he was suspended for. Thought it was strange but it was definitely him. Maybe a summer transfer in the offing!

2nd goal was a peach 🍑

My auld boy is a Dundee fan, so I've always had a soft spot for them. ☺

**DH1875** · 21-03-2015 07:12 AM

So if we make the cup final any pro thats a Hibs fan should be sacked if they turn up at the game?

I think it would only be an issue to hearts fans. If I knew that any of our players were going to watch hearts I wouldn't be happy about it.

Exactly.

If a picture emerged of a couple of young Hibs players in the Hearts end at a cup final (no s******ing at the back) then plenty folk would be going mental. There was a fair few on here getting worked up about a picture emerging of Jason Cummings 'doing a 5-1' way before he even signed for us. But when it's Dundee and Dundee Utd it's 'petty' or 'ridiculous'.

It's all about respect for your club. Going to support your local rivals in a cup final isn't on.

***bigwheel*** · 21-03-2015 08:58 AM

I wouldn't care it two 16 year old hearts fans , who happened to be youth players with Hibs , sat with their colours on in a final - it's their team

It wouldn't make them any less committed to their job at Hibs
