How did Clancy get any final? A complete incompetent. Looks like he gets taken by surprise by everything.

we can play sevco bingo that day -
dodgy penalty awarded to sevco,
hibs denied a stonewall penalty,
sevco player escapes booking / red card,
hibs player sent off wrongly
Neil Lennon sent to the stand
sevco win or draw (whatever is required for them to finish 2nd) with the dodgy penalty

Thomson disgraceful this evening
Just finished watching a replay of the Hearts v Hibs game and have to say Craig Thomson was really unbelievable. The amount of stuff he let go, both ways, was ridiculous. 20 years ago this would be the norm but the way the game has developed in the rest of Europe, where thugs are quickly punished and room is made for skilfull players to perform, its no wonder we are being left behind. Beaton didn’t have as much to deal wth as Thomson but his non calls were just as bad. Something needs to be done about it or Scottish football will never progress.

Saw the highlights on Sportscene and it showed a number of horrendous tackles from Hearts, only one of which resulted in a booking. These useless effers are helping keep Scottish football in the dark ages.

Until we make our grade 1 officials full time referees this will continue to happen. This should be there only job and that would allow them to constantly train and focus on football. People forget this is a part time hobby for most of them.

They should be full time for the money they are getting. Absolutely corrupt.

Easier said than done. The EPL refs are FT and they can be just as bad. They also have no refs selected for the World Cup if I am not mistaken which says a lot.

Just seen that Hearts v Hibs game. Second match in a row Hearts should be down to nine men, at least two should have been sent off. Thomson was a disgrace. Seems as if a new lenient approach to constant fouling is being applied in the lead up to our cup final v the biggest hammer throwers in the league. Yet another big game coming up where our only real fear is the MIB.

I don't think the problem is whether they are full time. It's how they apply the rules or how they are told to apply them. If the past couple of games being discussed had continental European refs hearts would have finished both games with at most 9 men. The tackles that are being let go without even a free kick that could easily have been a yellow or even a straight red are just incredible. It was the same in the hun Aberdeen game. Making them full time but having the same attitude won't make a difference.

Worst thing is the clowns in the studio passing comment on the match and pissing themselves laughing at assaults.
Dark ages is where most of these idiots want us to remain.
Then you get dicks like Levin calling for open season on our captain :angry: :angry:

The open season on Brown needs to stop. Naismtih and Shinnie - both should've been straight reds and would be in any other league on the planet. Cosgrove and Davies were also horrible tackles.

Surprised KT wasn't targeted today as he usually is.

Thomson was horrific the other night at Tynecastle, Hearts should've finished with 9 men minimum. It comes from the very top - the SFA/SPFL must be aware of how bad the referees are at their jobs but there's no appetite for change.

Scott Allan's tackle was a shocker and the worst decision Dallas made. Straight red everyday of the week.

Ref's have been even worse than normal lately
