If I watch Sportscene (and often I don't bother), I watch on BBC iPlayer after the broadcast and skip the studio bits.

I must be listening to different pundits in the Premiership, because the one on Sunday obviously didn't understand the new handball rules, and barely a week goes by without one of them thinking that "getting a piece of the ball" somehow means it can't be a foul. The BBC Scotland pundits are pretty poor too - but that's what happens when you slash budgets. It's no surprise the better ones are on Sky or BT Sport (or in the US, NBC Sports) where they spend more money.

We've beaten Celtic multiple times during the 20+ year barren run against Rangers, with the same mentality.

Aye, but Morelos hasn't played for all of the past 20+ years where we haven't won a league game against them.

It's all about match ups. Hearts and Rangers rely more on the physical aspects of their players so are more similar in style.

Good job we don't have McGhee in the dugout.

Because Hibs figured out how to plug that particular gap.

4 points from Aberdeen away and Hibs at home certainly isn't terrible; especially given we had to tweak our starting 11 in a couple of key areas. And 3 clean sheets in the last 3 games is always a plus.

At least we didn't give away a goal. This will be the curse of our good league position - teams coming to Fir Park every week that just want to sit in for 90 minutes.

3 minutes.

I was hoping we'd score 2 or 3 this half, but I think I'd be more pleased with a 1 - 0 win from a scrappy goal in the 93rd minute.

Ref is penalising us every time one of our players jumps for a header in the Hibs box

Dodged a bullet there - all because of a slack pass out of defence.

Look at our most dangerous when we inject a little pace into our attacks. Need to up the tempo in and around the box. Hibs look quite happy to play for a point.

Hibs tactics boil down to sitting deep, trying to hit on the break and seeing if they can provoke Donnelly into a red card.

Lots of possession and half chances so far, but no end product. A bit like the game at Easter Road.

They're putting 2 men on him every time he gets the ball - so in theory, that should make space elsewhere we can exploit.

Scott beating Tom James every time he takes him on. Need to take better advantage of that before Jack Ross fixes it.

Commentator saying Louis Moult, Marvin Johnson and Cedric Kipré all at the match today. They would have been a decent addition to the squad.

I saw Illic talking up his game in an interview recently, saying how well he has been treated by the club and his team mates while he dealt with some injuries. So it sounded like he was in the right frame of mind to kick on. Let's just hope his talent matches.

I'm buying 8, then not going.

FA Cup is exclusively shown on ESPN+ which is a subscription only internet channel. $4.99 / month and can cancel at any time. I think they still offer a 7 day free trial, so might be worth a look. They show every FA Cup game live, plus English Championship and lower league games plus the Rangers and Celtic Scottish Cup games (as well as loads of other sporting events). (Sorry I couldn't find an American to answer, but hope this helps )

If we did want it, there's also a small section in the West Stand for away support.

Long and Hylton both doubtful according to Robinson.

It tends to be the other direction e.g. Craig Moore hitting 27 goals in 41 games when he moved down the leagues to Ayr Utd. It's not just his time at Aberdeen that was lacking, though. His spells with St Mirren and Morton returned 14 goals in 64 games - pretty average for that division. He undoubtedly caught fire when he dropped to the third tier, and continued that form when Ayr Utd came back up to the Championship. But if he sticks around with Utd next season, we'll see soon enough how he handles the Premiership. I'm certainly not writing him off; just interested to see how he develops.
