Bairnardo Posted September 29 Share Posted September 29 Not really Sportscene related but seemed an appropriate thread.... The EPL has youtube highlights of every game up basically by about ten past five. Is there a reliable Youtube channel for Scottish highlights? The SPFL channel seems to take an age to get anything up and BBC dont seem to bother 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pull My Strings Posted September 29 Share Posted September 29 9 hours ago, Junior_Arab said: Barry Robson failing utterly to grasp the concept and logical implementation of VAR by agreeing that it was never a foul prior to Sibbald’s goal then complaining that the referee allows play to continue before awarding the foul. Aye, I'm sure that's what happened, but is the ref actually meant to allow play to continue if he thinks there's been a foul? Offside, yes, let it go and then flag once the move has finished but I don't think those are the instructions for fouls. It was never a foul and the correct decision was reached in the end, but if Napier thought it was a foul, then I think he should have blown immediately. He wasn't playing an advantage so what was he waiting for? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invergowrie arab Posted September 29 Share Posted September 29 9 hours ago, Ginaro said: Maybe I'm more observant than the pundits but I thought it was obvious as well that the referee was taking the advice of his assistant for both the foul before the goal and the penalty, given he pointed to the AR and then for the latter incident was going away from the box before turning to give it. The first one yes. The assistant doesn't make any signal for the penalty and is also running back up the park when it was given. It was a bit strange. Unless the assistants don't signal now and they just discuss it? Anyway what chance do referees have when people like Barry Robson are managing Premiership teams. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You see that far more in games than ignoring an offside to be honest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I presume you haven't seen the incident, or indeed read the post. At a push, you've skimmed it and picked up a few words. He wasn't playing advantage. He (wrongly) thought a United player had committed a foul in the Kilmarnock box, United kept the ball and scored five seconds later. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasn't playing an advantage so what was he waiting for? They are supposed to let play continue after a foul if they think there is a goalscoring opportunity, exactly in the same way that they do for an offside. There have been two other really high profile instances of this - it happened in the Scottish Cup semi-final last season when Aberdeen thought they were getting a penalty but it was pulled back for an earlier foul, and then when Rangers had a goal initially disallowed against St Johnstone in the League Cup only for VAR to advise it wasn't a foul. The latter was quite a big story. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NorthBank Posted Monday at 08:38 Share Posted Monday at 08:38 Noticed Sportscene was brought forward last Sunday night to 10:30. Reason - both OF teams playing that day. Now back to its usual Sun night slot of midnite until both OF teams play on a Sunday again. Fans of diddy teams have to wait until midnite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't last week it was two weeks ago, and because the Rangers v St Johnstone game kicked off at 8.00 Sportscene couldn't be shown in the normal 7.15 slot on the BBC Scotland channel and then repeated after Match OF The Day 2. So when that happens it gets the earlier Match Of The Day 2 slot. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
