    Hibs official website

    Whoever does our official website stats clearly thinks we've had a proper rubbish start to the season going on the attached.

    Thankfully we know better

    KILMARNOCK H 2:1
    LIVINGSTON A 1:4
    DUNDEE UTD A 0:1
    MOTHERWELL H 0:0
    STJOHNSTONE A 0:1
    ABERDEEN H 0:1

    Looks right to me. It's the home team's score 1st, not Hibs'.

    Yeah I think that's what they have done which would be fine if the format was as below. However to an outsider reading the stats page they would read it as we've been ***** so far Also how will they record the semi-final score played at a neutral venue using the current format?

    HIBERNIAN H 2:1 KILMARNOCK
    LIVINGSTON A 1:4 HIBERNIAN
    DUNDEE UTD A 0:1 HIBERNIAN
    MOTHERWELL H 0:0 MOTHERWELL
    STJOHNSTONE A 0:1HIBERNIAN
    HIBERNIAN H 0:1 ABERDEEN
    ST MIRREN A 0:3 HIBERNIAN

    or maybe

    KILMARNOCK H WIN 2:1
    LIVINGSTON A WIN 1:4
    DUNDEE UTD A WIN 0:1
    MOTHERWELL H DREW 0:0
    STJOHNSTONE A WIN 0:1
    ABERDEEN H LOST TO DIRTY NEGATIVE TACTICS 0:1
    ST MIRREN A WIN 0:3

    There are home and away teams at neutral venue semis and finals. First named on fixture is the home team

    Sure but that's not the point I'm making.

    Someone reading the Hibs website to see the Hibs results for the season won't know that. To understand the results, using the format on the Hibs website, you basically need to already know the scores so why bother

    As above it's easily fixed by adding WIN, LOST or DRAW I suppose.

    Home teams score first is the universal system for writing football results. There is nothing wrong with how it’s written.

    No they wouldn’t, it is correct and virtually every football fan would understand it. Am I missing something here and you are on the wind up?

    No it’s not universal nor has it been used by Hibs before. As above (without knowing the score) how would you deal with a game played at a neutral venue? If someone was to read the Hibs results page to see how we have been performing they would get the scores wrong.

    Hey hoo just an error I spotted and the fix would be to add WIN, LOSE or DRAW.

    Hibs have put the scores up like that on the website for years.

    So how would this work for a neutral game? Not a wind up and I do understand the logic, it’s just flawed. As it requires the reader to already know the score.

    So for argument sake if Hibs are drawn as the away team v Hearts in the semi and win 2-0 the score will be as below? But if I was to look at that result without knowing that I’d read it as a win to Hearts. That’s all I’m saying 😁

    Hearts N 0:2

    I don’t disagree but it needs to be in the correct format which the Hibs website is not. Aberdeen’s website Is an example of how it should be done.

    Haha I never said it was important just a wee annoying website error. I am a stats geek to be fair so recording scores like this would always grate someone like me 😁

    See what happens when there’s no midweek game on

    It's not an error, though. It's on purpose.

    I'm in complete agreement with the OP.
    It's not the best way to present the results.

    How was May 2016 Cup final score reported?

    On a related note... I think! I remember seeing a league table on the the rangers website- (dont ask!) And they had decided to not include any team above them in the league! It made it look at first glance that they were strolling it. An odd bunch.

    I’ve already explained this if you read the thread. It’s an error in the sense it requires a certain amount of knowledge and is not a universal format.

    Trust me I’ve been studying stats a long time and this is not correct.

    Easy fixed however.

    From memory we were the “away” team so if they were consistent it would have been..

    Rangers N 2:3

    The website has done this for years but I agree, it's really stupid.
