Del1812 Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 Smith's 1 up front policy is ridiculous against some of the smaller teams. No shock they're leading so early with 2 up top and that it's Boyd that's got the goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether the players try a leg or not is something that's much more difficult to judge. Not so I don't think, I'm sure that Levein can play whatever team he wants to play, as long as the players are registered to United. Celtic and Rangers have both been guilty of playing weakened teams on the last day of the season in the past when nothing is at stake and quite rightly so IMO, and the SFA said nothing about it, one of the games affected Hearts IIRC when Celtic played a weakened side at Killie.

Cobblers Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 Any more details - I'm relying on BBC text coverage and all it said was 4 bookings for unsporting behaviour... Thompson kicked the ball at a Saints player lying on the ground. He reacted and several other players piled in, including Whittaker. Lots of pushing and shoving with too many trying to get involved rather than calm it down. Bookings were probably right but I've seen many Hearts players sent off for less.

Gambo Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 If that bust up had involved Hearts players I bet it wouldn't have been yellow dished out. Agree. Did Glen, Stewart, Kurskis, Zaliukas do any worse than what went on there? Yet our men see straight reds, kop suspensions and we maybe kop a ?40k fine, yet Rangers players for the umpteenth time this season get away with putting their hands around an opponents neck and get away with a yellow (St Mirren were also guilty). Did we not get Maybury sent off for blasting a ball (in play) at an opponents chest? ps For what its worth, that is how i would like to see a referee deal with those situations, pity we can't get the same deal.

There was a bit of handbags in fornt of the dugout, Jose sprinted towards it and.....well that was all really. He then gets sent off. Was quite bizarre, and never really got cleared up.

I honestly believe that a manager should be able to field whatever team he likes if the match is meaningless for his own side, sod everyone else mate, if I was a manager, I would blood the youngsters.

The season lasts for 38 games. Clubs are under an obligation to play their strongest side in all of them irrespective of whether the game is at the start or end of the season. Having said that, I admit that managers should have the flexibility to blood youngsters and new players, but not to a stupid extent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
