match thread (image) [FT] Hibernian 2 - 2 Rangers (Tavernier 45' pen; Lawrence 58')

The Hobbit practically red card out before Lundstram made tackle,as for Alfie two goes using his arm gave the Hobbit an excuse.

 

Sad to see Alfie back to his deceit,he got away with a back kick, Gio must make this his last chance IMO.

 

Matondo too powder puff his effort? at a tackle led to Hibs attack and first goal,should have been taken off sooner.

Morelos is stupid but it is never a red. 

You can't slap opposition players on the head.

 

It is a fairly basic rule.

When the referee is the story then you know that he has had a stinker. 

He probably thinks that he was 'brave', an epithet for failure for that type. 

 

The Lundstram red was a clear attempt to even things up, following our 'controversial' penalty.

The Morelos red was personal. Collum could not get the card out of his pocket quickly enough. I have watched a replay: anyone can see it smouldering as he brandished it, triumphantly.

Jesus, wish I hadn't bothered replying to you, better patter from my 5 year old here you daft ****.

The officials today are god awful and with VAR that is a very different game. Who knows how it ends up. 

 

Hibs may have had a pen, Tav is being fouled as well though so who knows. 

Hibs first is offside. 

Lundstrums red is as bad a decision as you will ever see. 

Morelos is a yellow. 

 

Incompetence or cheating the result is the same and the outcome should be to. Collum has to be finished after this and rangers need to lead the carge by saying that no matter the consequences.

We missed Tillman but it's understandable he was left out of the side, with the big match on Wednesday.

 

Kent drove me nuts, more than anyone else today.  A wee bit more nouse about him and we'd have been a couple of goals up before Tav's penalty.  

 

Shoot or pass it, don't try and take their entire team on FFS.  

[Rousseau 10,673]

I'll let everyone else discuss the red cards etc., but at the end of the day, we're not playing well enough.

 

We don't create enough chances. This was one of my main concerns with GvB's appointment from the start. 

 

Six attempts in that first half, with one on target; and it was a penalty. Embarrassing. 

 

I'm bored watching us.

It has to be with force to be a red. It has to be likely to hurt them. not petulance. 

 

Not even sure it is deliberate. 

 

They will uphold the appeal though because to not is to admit the ref cheated.

Does he tell players to pass when there's a shot on?
