They say that the fruit does not fall far from the tree. Clearly he has been reincarnated. Anyone fancy a hanging😂

The Porteous Riots surrounded the activities of Captain John Porteous (c. 1695 – 1736), Captain of the City Guard of Edinburgh, Scotland, who was lynched by a mob for his part in the killing of innocent civilians while ordering the men under his command to quell a disturbance during a public hanging in the Grassmarket, Edinburgh in April 1736. Although the rioters were generally supportive of the convicted smugglers, Porteous seems to have been a somewhat overbearing official, despised by the mob and the underclasses of Edinburgh society.

Hm the Edinburgh underclass seem to like this new Porteous though!

Everyone else quite rightly runs to celebrate with Boyle but he stands for a second then mouths something to Gordon first. A prick of a boy. 

He's a prick but he's also very nasty. He absolutely hates us and the Huns. Not alone in such views but he comes across as borderline unhinged. Insta posts with a picture of Boyce lying in a heap after that animal came through the back of him. 

 

I'd have no problem with him sustaining a really bad injury. Appreciate that's not particularly nice thing to wish on anyone. I see him as a very rare type in this era who seems to relish going in with intent to injure. Invariably when there is little chance of him sustaining injury as a result.

 

A ****ing coward and sheer low life scum.

Genuinely interested.  So when we play Hibs, you don't think "ooft, let's get right at him".  Cos I know I do.  Him and Bishiri at present in fact.  Every time they have the ball, every time we turn them, every time we get touch tight with one of them on Boyce's back, I think let's keep at these, they can't handle it.

 

That doesn't strike me as decent.  I don't think that every time I see Hearts play.

 

He's shaky at best, error strewn more apt.

 

No one obviously in any doubt he's a gomeral of the highest order though.  You agree with that right!?!?!

There seems to be a view amongst some that he's decent as he'll attack the ball or the man with vigour. Get him on the turn or facing his own goal and you've got as discombobulated a central defender as you'll find in this league. Absolutely floundering. 

 

How we never brought Ginnelly on yesterday later in the game to get him and Bushiri on the turn and uncomfortable beggars belief. We should have attacking players rubbing their hands to play against that pair. Absolutely honking bad. 

 

 

[Pasquale for King]

I only saw one replay but did Beaton not give him Hibs the foul after Boyce won the header and he allegedly collided with the back of his baldy head?

Spot on all round.  DIdn't understand Gino not coming on especially when Boycie was spent.

I hope he stays with them. He was absolutely shite yesterday. The lad they signed by mistake was much better (and he wasn’t great either).

I've said it before... he seems to want to be (or think of himself as) the new broonaldo. A total pr1ck of a man and a footballer. Loves to appeal to the lowest society can offer.

Especially since he got booked early on for a stupid foul in our half!... the guy just isn't very bright or very good, error strewn & shaky. Unfortunately, it makes him a danger to the players he's up against.

You get a sense for his background when you see his hatred of Hearts and Rangers. Sheer and utter hatred. 

 

He's incredibly limited player. Thinks he's hard but also thinks he has a presence. 

 

Holding off signing a new deal it seems. He'll renew with them. Nothing surer. Imagine him in English football when he can't play in the middle of a 3 with the whole game played in front of him.

He'll sign... h1b5 are as good as it gets for him. Not even that sure how he even gets a game for them TBH!? Total liability.

He will re-sign. Nothing more certain. Representation trying to get wee Ron to increase his terms presumably. 

 

Their fans seem to lap him up. Perfectly matched some might say!

Yes,Boyce won the header as he was in front,Porteous heads the back of Boyce's head then goes down holding the portion of his bru which didn't make contact. What a faker.

If JJ had been our manager in a game against a pairing like that it would've been shades of the Jim Duffy first game when JJ locked the players in the dressing room for over an hour after the game for failure to avenge NYD 73. 

 

Yet inexplicably we changed formation and didn't think pace was the way to exploit them as the game progressed yesterday.

We'll come up against a lot better defence's that's for sure, quite impressed with Shankland, he's no shrinking violet and also has ability.

He's very hibs.

Said it before that it’s a matter of time before he seriously injures somebody. An out and out thug and a cheat.  Him and Newell are horrendous when it comes to stuff like that.  Cowards.

Putting a picture of Boyce in a heap on his social media sums up his mentality.  Pond life

Although I might be biased I think he’s shite. His distribution is awful and he’s a bomb scare. We should have targeted him in possession.

He is a fudd. No doubt. 

 

I don't see him as better or worse than most other defenders in our, league. 

 

He's over rated tho.

Exactly. He goes out with intent to injure. You'd think he has about 600 games under his belt with the way he tries to carry himself. A total bellend, unbelievably Hibs and a coward.

When you get players like him, you make sure he goes down for a reason.

I dont the refs will ignore his head knock simulation, and to be honest I dont blame them for it, because what happens if they ignore him on the ground and holding his head and it turns out to be genuine and serious then they face real problems.

 

It should be an attitude among players that faking a head knock is a real no-no and socially unacceptable. Same with the press and coaches. You can have simulation but not for situations that require quick medical attention which can have serious risks.

Copy rugby rules where the physio enters play and treats the player without stopping. Player then leaves the field after receiving treatment unless the opponent is booked.

 

You'll soon see the feigning of injuries stop once it disadvantages the team and play continues

Have to say - and not a moan - I did think when Boycie started cramping up a bit that having Gino come on and run channels against those two huddies seemed a perfect option.  Also would have been a better defensive option than Halliday in a "if we're up their end they're not near ours" kinda way.  It'd be playing for territory.  Lilkely a red card for Portoloo too.

 

Ah well.  It might not have played out that way but it was the sub I had in mind.

 

 

I was screaming for that!  Couldn't believe trying to shore up our defence when the threat of Gino's pace would have probably contributed more to easing the pressure.
