2020-21 season non-Hibs games thread

Have rangers had their penalty yet?

[Magpie]

The Rangers failing to win football games always puts a smile on my face.

[hibbysam]

Motherwell have shat the bed to be fair. Played fairly well for a good while, then parked the bus, shelled the ball away at every opportunity, sat even deeper again, took off attackers and midfielders for defenders, dropped deeper again, and then eventually lost a goal.

[cannastar]

are we all thinking the same where did the four minutes extra time come from.

[Paul1642]

1-1 FT. Makes no difference to us really.

[marinello59]

That was some shift from the Motherwell players under almost constant pressure. A well deserved point and Sevco’s winning streak ends .

Takes Motherwell off the bottom of the league, and gives them confidence for Aberdeen away next weekend

Not really - 6 sub stoppages is 3 minutes, then the time wasting and kicking the ball away from the Well players. 4 was expected.

TBF the Motherwell players played a fairly high tempo game for about 60 mins and then ran out of legs, Alexander is getting them playing a different way, good point for them.

Sheffield Utd 0-1 Spurs

They had a bank of 4 and 5 parked on the edge of their box from the first minute of the second half. I’m afraid if you sit off Rangers and hand them the ball then you are going to concede. 28% possession at home and barely getting out your own half for an hour isn’t great.

[Onion]

Won't happen, but Sevco losing the league from this position would be the most hilarious thing to happen to them .... since 2012.

[cannastar]

boyd looks like he is going to cry

[hibbysam]

Just realised it carried on SS football. Did they discuss the goal and whether it was offside or not? Looked half a yard off due to his outstretched leg at the time.

[Since452]

Never really paid much attention to English football but think I'll give Man United Liverpool a watch. Hope it produces.

Yep looked offside to me also though appreciate camera angle wasn't in line. Thought the ref gave Rangers so many soft fouls almost like he isn't aware Kent Morelos Hagia just scream and fall over at every opportunity

Just been checking the fixtures. Aberdeen have 1 point less than us but have 2 games in hand so we need to turn 5 points to get back on level terms before the split.

Motherwell could easily get another draw at Pittodrie next week.
We have only 1 more game against an old firm team before the split and Aberdeen have 2.
We have one game to play against Livingston and Aberdeen have 2.
We need to beat Aberdeen when we play at Easter Road.

Lots of chances to catch Aberdeen after their crash yesterday.
Hopefully we get Irvine, Cadden & Magennis up to full speed by the Dundee Utd game at the end of the month or soon after.

Their two games in hand are Celtic and Livingston both away I think. Chances of them getting 6 points is very slim.

Sheffield Utd 0-2 Spurs. Nice finish from Kane.

[Iggy Pope]

Listening to Souness rambling on at half time reminds me of how much I hated the **** when he was up here!
Blades back in it 1-2

[Iggy Pope]

1-3 brilliant finish but I can’t imagine what’s being said on the SU forums about the fellah Norwood.

Wonderful goal

[J-C]

Bale must be delighted to have swapped the warm bench at Real for the freezing cold bench at Spurs.

[hibbysam]

Henderson and Fabinho centre half, Shakiri centre midfield, surely a wet dream for United.

Fabinho has probably been the best central defender in the league this season. He is absolutely brilliant there.

Fabinho has probably been the best central defender in the league this season. He is absolutely brilliant there.

It’s two central midfielders playing centre half, with two attacking full backs not renowned for their defending, and a completely makeshift midfield three. There’s no organisation between them and they are far stronger with their main centre halves. He’s not been the best centre half in the league this season.

I know exactly what it is, mate. Of course it is makeshift, but Fabinho has played many games in his career there, he isn't a weak link.

Who has been better then? Fabinho seriously has been excellent. Ruben Dias has also been good.

You've took that too far.

Curious Matic isn't playing from the start. I suppose they're going for it today.
