To be honest, wonder how many football clubs owners haven't been involved in some sort of fraud over the years. The ones who go into administration have normally had something illegal going on behind the scenes, especially a certain Glasgow club.
Just watched 30 mins of highlights from last night's Hibernian ( Sack The Board ) 3 v 3 Aberdeen & for the neutral an absolute cracker of a watch with 3 goals in injury time , some cracking goals & the usual cock ups from whatever fool is in goal for Hibernian .
I don't know what's going on in Scotland atm, but I cannot remember the last time the Scottish clubs did this well as a group in Europe. Celtic and Rangers are flying, and although they lost last night, Hearts are still in a decent position.
Watched Arbroath v QOTS Live on Alba earlier in terrible conditions but decent match & looking forward to watching my favourite Scottish team on live Stenhousemuir away at Kelty Hearts on Jan 11th . Just watched Sportscene highlights , 1st thing , if Hibs could finish then Celtic would have been beaten in 1st half today & 2nd , why so many empty seats at Parkhead ? Similar in England atm , football is becoming a rich persons hobby , unfortunately !
Thought that too . Hibs will be ruining all that but then Celtic had a few more too . Fans hiding from the rain maybe ..
Thought tonight's Sportscene highlights were superb viewing for the neutral , goals , goals , goals with last minute penalty v.a.r. retakes , good stuff especially without the Big 2 being involved in them , here's hoping Killy v Hearts usurps their cup final in entertainment value on tomorrow's highlights show .
Killie with their 7th red card of the season ! No wonder they still beat Hearts- probably used to it .
'Nobody has cracked how to deal with pyros' - SFA chief executive So he has no idea how to stop it and offers nothing to stop it either...about right. lol.
Cambs Police deployed drug & pyro dogs at I think it was either Huddersfield or Wrexham matches earlier in the season when there was around 2,300 away fans at London Road though to deploy lots of pyro trained dogs & or harsher penalties if caught ( the terrorist act ) would stamp out / deter pretty quickly would add lots of £ to the policing / security bill which clubs just can't afford .
They've used them many times in scotland its made no difference. Bottom line the SFA are acting very differently to the EFA on this matter. Its been like this in scotland for a decade nothings changed. I don't think they'll do anything about it unless something really bad happens. I mean its not just at hampden, look at rangers at dundee 100's of flares, smoke alarms going off, match delayed....and what do they do...nowt. Imagine what would've happened if that was an EPL match.
Dunfermline fans were openly bringing them into Stark's Park on Saturday and the stewards weren't blinking an eyelid about it.
There you go...I guess they can't come out and say we know they're doing something illegal but we don't care. So what you get is soundbytes from everyone, without anyone really giving a ..... I just hope someone doesnt get seriously hurt.
Stuart Kettlewell not happy with a dodgy red card in the Mortherwell/ Killie game. Didn't help the VAR ask the on pitch to have a look but the latter actually upheld his decision. x.com Biggest surprised was that it wasn't to Killmarnock. Protest from the Ultras at Hearts . Very European! https://www.scotsman.com/sport/foot...arts-fan-boycott-and-takes-aim-at-var-4920295
Hearts v Hibs live on Sky at 12.30, sure to be plenty of goodwill to all men in the stands at Tynecastle!
Hibs deserved winners, Hearts look to be in real trouble. Hearts fan arrested for racist abuse. No doubt a few yuletide pleasantries will be exchanged in Edinburgh pubs this evening.
