  1. I mean, they kind of have to, and tbh I'm fine with that. Admitting an error that massively affects who wins your flagship competition would open a much bigger can of worms, both sporting and legal.
  2. Which meant Aberdeen only needed to draw at Ibrox, and they still blew it.
  3. Although both the professionals in the studio said that's exactly what they used to do 😅
  4. Keep up grandad, Murdoch sold Sky years ago. It's ComcastVision these days.
  5. Because they're not mutually exclusive. The ref might have decided it was "normal football contact", whatever that means this week.
  6. Fadinger out because his partner about to give birth. Jens was a bit cagey about McGinn's "issue" in the pre-match interview, so not sure I'd be too optimistic about his return.
  7. Rangers who've lost their last two games against the top 6, and might well lose three in a row tomorrow? Don't think I'll be taking anything for granted there.
  8. A point from a below par performance against the league leaders? I'll take it.
  9. Probably just as well given Longelou just punched the ball in the penalty area.
  10. GOOALL! Said! EDIT: Actually a Kingsley O.G.
  11. So it is, cheers... that makes my life easier!
  12. Just a pity Hearts are currently Hibsing it. While to go yet, though.
  13. True, but at least 25th is an anniversary that isn't uncommon to celebrate.
  14. 140 is a pretty meaningless anniversary in the grand scheme of things, so I wouldn't build my hopes up.
  15. I'm too young to really remember him playing, but I do remember his son was in my Primary 1 class.

    Rule 201. The SFA introduced it in 2011, and have handed out a few two game bans for it since then. The additional two suspended is new, though.

    Two of them suspended, but does seem harsh even if he was being an eejit. Should stop him doing it again, at least
  18. Trouble is, "blatantly obvious" is just as much a judgement call as any other way you can decide it with a human involved. Until the ball and everyone's extremities have millimetre-perfect position sensors in them and offside calls are made my some magically-infallible computer, there will always be controversial decisions.
  19. Was always more concerned about this one than I was about Hibs, so yesterday’s performance doesn’t bode well. Wouldn’t be too gutted with another draw, would be nice to start scoring again though.
  20. Overturned by VAR ☹️
  21. It's a simple enough rule in theory, unfortunately it comes down to making a judgement call about a player's intent which refs are never going to get right every time. In this case, Longelo wasn't even facing the ball half the time it was in the air from the corner, and by the time he was facing it there was no way he could play it as there was someone else in the way. So I guess that's why they decided he wasn't making a genuine attempt to do so.
  22. Mibbe, mibbe not, who knows what he'd have done with a full preseason and the chance to sign a few more Lukas Fadingers.
