Zali Cinnamon Posted January 23, 2008 Ridiculous that he wasn't booked. Ok it's awful that he had to see his uncle die but it doesn't make him immune from the rules of football surely?! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm afraid it does, what he got away with was shocking! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
magicTs Posted January 23, 2008 Would take him and several others from that M'well team ahead of some of our imposters mind you. Players making the most of their talent and to who it actually looks like it means something. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

interista Posted January 23, 2008 Anyone playing for the opposition against Hearts is immune to the rules. Especially if their fecking uncle died on the pitch near them recently Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spikey Posted January 23, 2008 I hate this little turd. Fairly obvious why well and their players are getting away with it right now. They'll go all the way to Hampden on a tidal wave of sympathy. Dougal made a big show of booking Neilson for persistant fouling, pointing to different areas on the field. I think Robbie had 3 fouls, 4 at the most. Clarkson on the other hand dived, fouled (7 i think) and niggled his way through the entire game and was helped back to his feet almost every time, poor wee lamb. By my reckoning he should have been booked for persistant fouling twice and therefore sent off. Can anyone explain that? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dunk-Section G Posted January 23, 2008 Why was McCormack not booked, thats a better question. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
chester copperpot Posted January 23, 2008 Why was McCormack not booked, thats a better question. Same reason Clarkson wasn't. The crime count was a disgrace last night, and Im sure there should have been more cautions handed out to that lot. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dunk-Section G Posted January 23, 2008 Same reason Clarkson wasn't. The crime count was a disgrace last night, and Im sure there should have been more cautions handed out to that lot. His tackle on Berra was similar to the one Eggert got done for. But McCormack had made a number of bad challenges and dives for which the ref had already warned him. Terrible.

Cardiac Rucksack Posted January 23, 2008 7 fouls that were given!!!!! The boy cant jump without elbowing opponents in the face and his two late lunges on Berra and one on Jose were deserving of bookings alone. Its pathetic, the guy is now protected and you will struggle to see him booked for the rest of the season. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DuffJimmy1875 Posted January 23, 2008 Anyone playing for the opposition against Hearts is immune to the rules. the ever hilarious paranoia line of thought. I - obviously - haven't seen the game, but players on opposing teams - Hearts included - get away with what I can only term "persistent fouling" against Hibs, week in, week out, and Hibs players, frequently Jones and Beuzy, get away with it a lot as well. That's just football sadly. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Refs DO protect certain players in the SPL, there is no dispute over that. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That's just football sadly. Clarkson is getting away with murder. At least twice as many fouls as Neilson, 1 or 2 bookable on their own, play acting and constant niggling. He would appear to be getting special treatment. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Refs DO protect certain players in the SPL, there is no dispute over that. Ahhh, if we're bringing the Old Firm into the equation then the picture changes somewhat. I remember a blatant incident in a Hibs vs Huns game a few years back, John O'Neil harrying Fergushun, the wee ned turns a full 90 degrees from the ball to shove O'Neill - 2 handed - in the chest before running on. Ref's action - square root of sweet F.A. - incredible. I'd imagine the most blatant one for Hearts is THAT Andy Davis penalty - absolutely incredible decision.

The People's Chimp Posted January 23, 2008 There was another one last night where the well player dragged and pulled and miko's shirt while he ran for about 5 metres, eventually pulling him so hard the ref had no option but to give a foul, the well player then went down clutching his face. result? A booking for miko and a booking for the well player. Utter nonsense. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Theoretically. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Coco Posted January 23, 2008 Correct. The well player could've been booked for the blatant shirt pulling and booked again for the blatant simulation. Theoretically. I agree, but to be fair, could Velicka have been sent off for a Zaliukas style swing right in front of the dug outs? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The People's Chimp Posted January 23, 2008 Correct. The well player could've been booked for the blatant shirt pulling and booked again for the blatant simulation. Theoretically. Yip.

Seen him taking a pretty unconvincing fall holding his face though. Dont know if there was contact. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
