  1. Probably about right, a little on the lenient side. Jim Goodwin can count himself lucky he isn't staring at an empty wall in Saughton tonight.
  2. I am part of the Goalkeeper's Union and can criticise a member of the brotherhood all I want. He makes some great saves, yes. He also neglects many basics of being a modern goalkeeper and is a rancid cheat to boot. He has already made two undeniable errors and let in numerous soft goals this season, which everybody overlooks on account of it being "Good Old Craig" the Scotland goalie. Hearts' best goalkeeping performance this season came from Ross fucking Stewart ffs.
  3. That isn't what happened. He did not "go down easily". He saw he had fucked it by coming for a ball he couldn't get (nothing new there) and intentionally threw himself over a Rangers player. It would not have won any other goalkeeper a free kick but Craig Gordon is given untouchable status by the mouthbreathers who rate him as a goalkeeper.
  4. Craig Gordon who threw himself over a player to win a ludicrous free kick the other day? The Craig Gordon who makes easy saves into camera saves and whose best asset is timewasting? That Craig Gordon?
  5. BTTS and draw is the thinking man's pick. 1-1 or 2-2, maybe even a gunslinging 3-3. Probably not a 4-4. Definitely not a 5-5. I could go on.
  6. I mean, it might not be Hart but it certainly isn't Craig fucking Gordon.
  7. I’m not a family historian, but I’m pretty sure half of Ian Black’s ancestors were sent to the big prison island and changed their name to the Devlins.
  8. This lot finally picked up a win against some plumbers from Riga and suddenly thought they had third in the bag.
  9. Form an orderly queue in which to grovel, please and thank you.
  10. It's sometimes hard to separate the 'does the cutting the allocation help produce better results' or 'are more Hibs fans buying tickets precisely because we're more likely to beat them'. The recent record with Celtic having a half stand: P1, W1 D0 L0 The recent record with Celtic having a full stand: P7 W1 D4 L2 The recent behind-close-doors record: P2 W0 D2 L0 Having written that out, it's obviously not an exact correlation and it doesn't equal causation, but when Celtic had half their usual capacity, we won. Even during a bit of a tailspin under Lennon. When we give them a full stand, we can often match them, but more often than not we end up losing.
  11. Maybe St Mirren have listened to the condescending c*nts who support the Old Firm’s Twitter advice and just tried a bit harder?
  12. Do Aberdeen get any points for saying “Brian Porteous” a lot and thinking it’s good patter?
  13. Knew it would happen ever since the mind-boggling treatment that Diana and the Queen's Mother received upon death, but still just fucking ridiculous and I'm seething all the same.
  14. I'm really glad that clear and obvious error was corrected, we'd have looked like right idiots if that had been allowed to stand!
  15. An eye-watering gap in budgets, aye? They can sign players you could only dream of signing, aye? An imbalance of finances ruining football, aye? Something needs to be done about it, aye?
  16. If anyone could cost Hibs two points out of this, it’s Derek John Lucifer McInnes.
  17. Assumed he’d still be in mourning for the 91st anniversary of Bobby ‘the greatest natural footballer to ever play’ Walker’s death.
  18. Looking forward to the second coming of the banner attached to a plane over Gorgie crisis.
  19. Everything above this last bit is spot on, so I’ll just quote this bit and offer a suggestion: because the nightmare that is televised football punditry has slowly drip fed the poison of ‘ref watch’, ‘talking points’, ‘officiating controversy’ into the ears of unsuspecting fans for two/three decades. All part of a bid to make the half time and full time as interesting as the game itself (it isn’t and never will be). Of course the mouth breathers who follow the Old Firm from their sofa would lap it up, but it has infected others too, who genuinely believe that football could ever be refereed in an 100% fair and objective way with 100% accuracy in all decisions made.
  20. Offside was invented to stop fat goalhangers scoring fifty a season not to be scientifically scrutinised to death. If a player isn't at least a yard offside I genuinely do not care.
