Arch Stanton Posted August 16, 2023 Share Posted August 16, 2023 Just now, VincentGuerin said: How on earth does anyone find out who is in the SPFL Team of the Week? Are people waiting for this to be announced every week and getting emotionally invested in it? I follow the SPFL on both FB and X, they announce TOTW on both. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the case of Hibs: Probably to represent the white flag they appear to pull out against any Premiership side. The fashion accessorie that I didnt quite believe when I fist saw it was the hand bag.....Hibs fans "f*****g boooing" their team were wearing them and then I saw several "ultras" in the Rangers end at the Serviette game last night with hand bags too......what is going on? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that the BBC's "shots on target" metric isn't the most precise way of judging these things but It seems Rangers Keeper has to do more to keep a clean sheet against Livi than Ross County's Keeper against St Johnstone and more than both keepers from the Hearts vs Kilmarnock game put together So it might not be the daftest of suggestions Edited August 16, 2023 by topcat(The most tip top) 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sevco keeper had to work harder to not concede than keepers from those teams? Or indeed literally every other team in the SPFL? In game his team won 4-0?! Are folk at the wind up here? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the 4-0 is giving you a blinkered view of the game, the scoreline flattered Sevco a bit, 2-0 would've been a fairer reflection of the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even at 2-0, how busy was their keeper? Was he busier than other keepers across the SPFL? Was he really the best keeper in the SPFL last weekend? Were Livingston creating a load of chances that their keeper was saving? If it was Kilmarnock who beat Livingston 4-0 in the same manner would their keeper have made team of the week? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At 1-0 he made an important save to keep their lead, which was prob pivotal in them winning so comfortably in the end. No idea if other keepers did better than him in other games, prob not, just saying you seem hung up on the 4-0 scoreline. Out of interest, who picks the ToTW, and have they a history of erse cheek bias? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not saying he should or shouldn't be in the team, your arguing against a point I never made. Just that your original post made no sense really. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I for one wasn't watching but it's heartbreaking if not and absolutely should be up there with the American civil rights issues. Nobody likes the inevitable late penalty to Rangers including Martin Luther King.

Instead of telling everyone how much you hate Rangers, have you considered suggesting an alternative? Using statistics to point out how redundant the choice was? "The keeper can't have been good in a 4-0" is reductive, meaningless nonsense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
