    What a classless, bitter walloper, trying to deflect her own shortcomings.

    Hibs should press the SWPL on this and ask her to clarify exactly what dark acts Hibs were involved in (other than running he clock down which is part of the game at every level) and get her dealt with appropriately. Likely though she will be out her job anyway so it won’t matter.

    She can still do a cup double they play Glasgow City in the Scottish Cup Final

    When they scudded us 0-5 in the League Cup Final we took our medicine but don’t think they have managed to score against us since

    Scott’s response was the perfect answer

    The Rangers have reduced their budget for their woman’s team for next season by a sum equivalent to our total budget for this season

    Not sure what you mean?

    Its a press conference, she is a manager trying to deflect from her own teams failure to beat Hibs at home.

    Standard Hun behaviour tbh.

    I was amused at Grant Scotts response though.

    Dark arts is generally a wee bit more serious than a bit of time wasting. Get her to elaborate on that comment.

    I reckon Celtic and Rangers women will be looking for new managers soon. Who will take the posts could be quite interesting - Shelly Kerr ? Willie Kirk ? Eva the Hearts manager ?

    Rich coming from a club quite literally entrenched in 'the dark arts'.

    Anybody associated with that rancid club inevitably becomes a bitter and twisted individual.

    Listen again, she mentioned the ref needing to hurry things up on the field.

    I thought the “challenge” for the red card near the end was about as “Rangers” an example of the dark arts as it is possible to get.

    She was hurting, fair enough. It can be hard being asked for fair comment at times like that, as it can be difficult to resist the urge to release another statement.

    What about Wee Barry trying to stop Nicky Cadden from taking a free-kick on Saturday?

    Dearie me !

    I thought there was a wee bit of the 'dark arts' about our performance. We slowed the game down at every opportunity, took an age over set pieces and there was a lot of staying down late in the game only to jump up before the physio had to come on to avoid needing to go off the park. But so what?

    That's football. Over the course of the season we had put ourselves in a position where a point was enough and played the clock accordingly. Over the course of the game we were in a position where we had done more than enough and again played the game accordingly from that point on. Rangers would have done exactly the same had they been 1-0 up with 10 to play yesterday, we wouldn't have liked it but it would have been their right to do it. I don't think it's all that unexpected for an opposition manager to mention it as it's a fairly easy deflection from her teams own shortcomings despite having a huge monetary advantage.

    Anything that plays on that club’s notorious sense of grievance is fine by me.

    Id quite like it if the women’s game was slightly different from the mens and more free of the petty nastiness that we get in mens interclub football rivalries but it seems to be going down that path.

    Lets be honest if Rangers had managed to take the lead they'd have been doing the exact same things and I think the manager even eluded to it in her interview. The women "managed" the game perfectly yesterday and what a fantastic goal to seal the league.

    Hope there's plenty sore heads this morning, they deserve it.

    I have listened thanks, my hearing is perfectly good.

    She is either having a sly dig at something else entirely or just lashing out and making no sense. Slowing the game down and wasting a bit of time has never been considered the ‘dark arts’.

    Faking injury and wasting time is definitely described as ‘the dark arts’. And everyone does it. Its came across as fairly petty for her to bang on about it for 45 seconds when it wasnt any more pronounced than you would expect when one teams defending a winning position for 94 minutes.

    With a few minutes to go our keeper went down “ injured”. I said to my wife that little break allows the players to get a drink, have a breather and get their heads together, we had been under a bit of pressure. It’s part of the game, all teams do it, I seem to remember Craig Gordon regularly needed treatment in the last few minutes of derbies when Hearts were leading. Game management, Hibs were excellent at it yesterday.

    Do we think the club will release any merchandise on the back of this? Would love to get my 3 girls champions tshirts.

    The club really should be using this to continue to inspire the next generation.

    I hope so and also a photo session with the league trophy. Fans and especially young fans would love it!

    Yeah would agree it wasn’t excessive time wasting - I’m sure if it was, the ref would’ve added on more than a fairly standard 4mins. And for all Hibs were slowing the game down, there were more than a few desperate dives and cynical fouls from her own side. Dark arts all round 😂

    As others have said she is attempting to deflect from a gross failure given the hun women mammoth budget in comparison to the rest of the league.

    What certainly does lack class, is the hun manager making numerous nasty / personal comments to Hibs players throughout the 90mins from the touchline.

    The Hibs squad were superb for the whole season, particularly in head to heads vs the Glasgow sides - and deservedly won the league.

    Couldn’t have picked a better place to win it either , a truly horrible mob - **** them.

    Correct!! Don't want to be a downer but it could easily be 18 years till the next one. Let's make the most of it and get as many youngsters involved in the game as we can.

    Talking of faking injury - one of their players, Rafferty, who was later sent off, was rolling around holding her face in the first half after a challenge where there was absolutely no contact whatsoever with her face. Several of their players also surrounded the ref trying to get Caley Gibbs sent off a few minutes later.

    I'd class those incidents as more 'dark arts' than Hibs players slowing the game.

    They were frustrated, you could see it. The petulant trip from behind that got rafferty sent off was something from the playground. One team was being professional (in all senses of the word), one was amateurishly losing the heid because they couldnt find their way past our tremendous defence and big Siobhan in particular.

    Absolutely right- Rangers always give off prima donna vibes to me, whereas we have a hard working and controlled unit where you can just see they're working so hard for each other and also have the quality to eventually make teams who can't break us down pay.

    Hopefully Hibs make sure we don't let this team break up and add a wee bit more strength in depth.

    She said they were bang on to do what the did. It wasn't classless at all. She pointed out they have been the best team all season. Watch the interview.

    I tend to agree having watched the interview. A touch of bitterness for sure but nothing outrageous. She admits they'd have played it exactly the same.
