Sooks Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 “He takes things straight on the chin. He’s a real leader. and that’s how you want your captain to be.” Looked like he took it on the nose from where I was sitting but as his nose is now in a different place to where it started off on that Saturday you can see how the genteel Mr Butcher would get confused Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jamboozy Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Ah! The big bad fizzicul hertz thing, and referees should line us up and shoot us for daring to give like for like, yup, sounds about right for this time of the year. Tbf, this kind of thing will only get worse, if we carry on being more successful and build on it? Then, not only will it be a two donkey race, third will be out of reach for the rest of them. I suspect a lot of them will be wakening up and smelling the coffee on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bull's-eye Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Simms red card on the horizon then, got to even these things up in the Mickey Mouse league. I'll predict 2 innocuous yellows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ex member of the SaS Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 (edited) His idea that blood makes it a red( no pun intended ) card is also daft, Your nose bleeds with the slightest touch and any bump will cause a lot of blood. As stated above what about the assault on Gordon. They only see what they want to see. Edited March 8, 2022 by Ex member of the SaS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgaro Gomis Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 (edited) His “tackle” on Cochrane was far worse than Simms on their player. Simms arms were up as he jumped for the header and the United players motion to head the ball meant Simms caught him, very little movement from Simms so he definitely didn’t “throw an elbow”. No malice and rightly a yellow card - just bad luck that it ended badly for the defender. Butcher absolutely clattered Cochrane with an extremely mis-timed jump; whilst also raising his leg and putting it into Cochrane’s back. Neither were red cards but it’s extremely rich for Butcher to be claiming Simms should have walked.

Hagar the Horrible Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Actually it should have been a straight red, it was an extremly dangerous challenge, Pushing somebody in the back while in the air could cause injury. I am of course saying Edwards should have at least been booked Big Ellis is the victim here, Edwards headbutted his elbow trying to do him. Result is that Simms got a yellow for being tackled, Edwards got his face rearranged, quite frankly an improvement. Alex ended up with a head injury, Delvin achillies, Gordon nearly taken out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DS98 Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 What a tit. There was nothing in that challenge. Simms doesn’t swing his elbow with a clenched fist. He’s actually really unlucky to even be booked for it. if you watch it back wee Willie wasn’t going for a card until he saw Edward’s beak.

wavydavy Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 2 hours ago, The Treasurer said: Not read the article due to its source, but I assume he mentioned the assault on Gordon. That deserved a red card rather than an accidental head knock You mean the challenge that wasn't shown on Sportscene highlights nor mentioned anywhere in the MSM. We all know that Hearts are always targeted whenever possible whether it be on or off the pitch. It seems we are not liked and although the table tells a story it is clearly begrudged by most of the pundits. Hearts have done well to be where they are in the league BUT !

Pretty desperate stuff from the DR too, seeking out non stories like that, from a guy whose premeditated challenge took one of our players out the game.

SectionDJambo Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Hearts should be all over this. Nip the nonsense before it becomes fact to those of little brains. Willie Collum, no stranger to a red card for Hearts, was very close and saw nothing wrong. The trial by Sportscene also found nothing wrong. Then this idiot gets to spout off in a "newspaper". We ended up with 5 players off injured and an assault on our goalkeeper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No Idle Talk Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 Ryan Edwards did cop an unfortunate one on Saturday. But the reality is that these things can and do happen when two players go up for a header together. Simms didn't swing or aim an elbow at Edwards. There was no intent there. As a professional footballer, Butcher should be able to differentiate between an accidental collision and a player setting out to 'do' an opponent.

King Of The Cat Cafe Posted March 8, 2022 Share Posted March 8, 2022 This is pathetic. If I was a manager, I would prohibit my players making public critical accusations against players from other teams. This is no different from a manager publicly slating a referee - as Robbie and several others have found. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
