Jamboinparis Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Watching it just now, cant believe the commentary and the pundits having a blatant laugh at our expense. "Bruno left scratching his head" - The guy just had a head knock, with the ref should have stopped play for. How did the ref not spot the handballs?! And of course we deserved the penalty! How can that Murdo celtic fud say otherwise?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maroon tinted glasses 2 Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Did i just hear that complete t1tbag correct, the play shouldnt have been stopped when bruno got the headknock, wasnt a handball just before hamilton scored, nielsen fouled mccarthy outside the box but it was still a penalty and it wasnt a penalty for hearts as it wasnt a handball! what an absolute joke that guy is!

I've often thought of myself as surely being a little paranoid for thinking that there's an anti-HMFC agenda anywhere, whether it be the press, SFA or whatever else... but you do have to wonder when you hear the likes of MacLeod saying that the ref's got it right when it's probably one of the most blatant penalties you'll ever see.

A more blatant handball I have never seen, apart from the one just before the corner that led to their first and of course, and Barry Ferguson's basketball thing in the League Cup semi last season.

redjambo Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 Vlad took on the football establishment and Hearts took on the OF, very successfully at one point. It rocked their boat, their gravy train, and scared them senseless. This is their reaction to that, refs, establishment and media alike. The only way to get back at them is, over the next few years, to GIRU them. And I look forward to us doing exactly that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stirlingshirejambo Posted February 2, 2009 Share Posted February 2, 2009 I had to laugh when both the commentator then Murdo laughed at both players handling it in the run up to the first goal. Doesn't matter if they both handled it but matters who handles it first. Richard Gordon tried to make the point but Murdo laughed it off and cringeworthy Gordon just crept back into his shell. Murdo hates Hearts with a passion. He probably hates Rabngers just as much but needs his cushy wee job with the weegie TV so takes it out on Hearts.

True DR, and he also didn't go about it in the right way as regards the manner of his criticisms etc. I don't think he really thought things through on serveral counts to be honest. But that means nothing to the establishment - the very fact that he and we took then on, and looked at a time as if we might do it, was enough to frighten their little cotton socks off. And I'm happy about that, if someone's going to take them on I'd rather it were us. It's just going to be a wee bit harder now that we've given them a bit of immunisation.

Jamboinparis Posted February 2, 2009 Author Share Posted February 2, 2009 When it was on ITV is was atrocious as well, but at least then we used to have John Colquhoun fighting our corner. Used to love watching him counter the presenters ill-informed put-downs. The best when when he exploded after they asked him if it was right that Gordon come back into the team in place of Banks who had been doing so well, when they had sat there for the past few weeks laughing at what a farce it was to be playing Banks instead of Gordon.

7628mm Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Murder thought that the Hamilton pen was a stonewaller as was the Rankers one. Wonder if he'd have thought the same if either of them was against his beloved smeltic? Aye right he would For what it is worth I thought that the Aiden McGeady one was a stick on penalty for them but the commentator said he went down to easily. Could it just be that the BBC et all think that if you tell lies often enough people will begin to believe you. We are fed a 2-3 minute snapshot of a 90 minute game and are subjected to rubbish commentary that is obviously nonsense. Can they not have a look at what they are going to show and do a new commentary for that? Or perhaps they do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SectionDJambo Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Mcleod once had a go at Eammon Bannon on TV about how he had been on an open top bus with Hibs with the Skol Cup and Hearts didn't know what it was like. Well you twisted Hibby clown, we certainly know now,but with a real trophy twice since then , and unlike the hoofballers, we still have a wee chance of doing it again later this year. He dislikes us with a passion, and I wouldn't have it any other way, because he and his mob are still hurting. :108years: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we should take a wee step back and remember that we have Paul Mitchell (The best Scottish commentator), Robbo (The wittiest and most erudite pundit) and Alan Preston (The most blatantly partisan summariser ever), all in the BBC clique, and all capable of fighting our corner.

4marsbars Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 The most blatant one was when Murdo said that the Hamilton boy used his chest, not his hand. Now, if that was MOTD in England, they would have analysed the tape before going on air, slowed it down, etc. (not that that was necessary so blatant was the handball). In other words, they'd have done some preparation. Not so Murdo. Just saying the first thing that came into his head. At least Richard Gordon pointed out that when two players handle the ball, you would generally penalise the first one to handle. I'm not sure about Robbie's part though. He did start to foul outside the area. Presumably ref gave advantage at that point. The contact inside the box looked minimal; could have gone either way. Bruno's head injury: our (not altogether undeserved) reputation for diving wouldn't have helped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
willie wallace Posted February 3, 2009 Share Posted February 3, 2009 Even Tangoman and Jim Duffy on Setanta thought the decisions against Hearts were a bit soft and John Hartson on Sunday said much the same.Many of the newspapers failed to even mention them and gave the ref good marks Many in the press have a go at Hearts in their columns and maybe they have their reasons for this but surely match reports should stick to the facts and even if you do not agree with certain contentious decisions they should be certainly highlighted.
