I think it got away from him a bit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think it could be described as either. I thought his hand was out from his side. Admittedly I've only seen a replay on my phone on the way back but it looked a certain penalty to me. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It did, but it would have been easily managed if he just talked to the players and defused the momentum rather than carding everything that moved. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The_Kincardine Posted December 12, 2021 Share Posted December 12, 2021 This simple but lovely football. Just three kicks of the ball needed to take it from outside our 18 yard box to the back of the JT's net. Mesmeric. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can’t find a clip of it, and I know that still photo’s are rubbish in making a point, but from this below, I think it would be extremely harsh to say Goldson has made himself “unnaturally bigger” here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hearts are a decent side, but if you play that aggressively against a side that’s quicker and better than you you’re always running the risk of picking up cards. High risk, high reward I suppose. Rangers were more clinical but were not the better team. The fact that Hearts dominated possession, created more chances and McGregor voted man of the match would probably give clues to that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Takes some neck to say that Rangers, 2-0 up before I finished my scrambled eggs and smoked salmon on toasted English muffin, were poorer than Hearts. But then if there's any crew capable of arguing black is white it's the P&B diddies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How devlin survived till he did without being booked while others were booked for one or two fouls only walsh will be able to tell, The sending off should have been no bookings to anyone, a high tempo game that both teams put 100% in is always gonna have a flare up or two, walsh could have told everyone to calm down and that was it The fact he produced a second yellow for the hearts boy at that point probably saved halkett from his second booking right at the end, and that was more of a yellow if one of them had to be A pretty shitty performance from the ref who clearly tried to establish authority using cards instead of smarts 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hearts dominated possession tippy tapping at the back whilst being two down! Any team will happily let you have the ball in that position. The ref had a shocker & only started booking his boys when the damage was done. ginnelly needs fined. the worst home performance & the easiest away win they will get all season 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They had 10 corners. We were clearly watching two different games. Edited December 12, 2021 by KingRocketman II typos 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His charm perhaps? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
