If it's a couple of inches he's not doing anything wrong. The part of the ball that's touching the ground doesn't have to be inside or touching the line, the ball just has to overhang any part of the line. So in theory the part of the ball touching the ground can be about 4 inches outside the line and still be fine.

Bloody glory hunter.

Irrespective of whether it was a penalty or not Boyle should have been carded for simulation. Hibs also like to cheat at corner kicks by placing the ball beyond the arc - for what? To gain a couple of inches.

Cheers mate, I'm sure i will - win, lose or draw!!! Especially if its a win 😂 but being realistic, would love to have the tie alive for the home leg - would certainly take a draw and an electric fir park on the 13th 👍

My good friend AI confirms this is the case. They rested 4 star players in advance of our game. However, all 4 are currently now on the field.....

Playing on the Monday night before a big European game? Interesting. Given the scoreline, maybe they have rested some of their better players?

Tuned back in just in time to see HJK going 3-0 down midway through the second half.

I’ve never seen us play in European competition, home or away but have seen us in 3 cup finals. (4 if you count the summer Cup 😂) Need us to get past HJK and Freiburg and then I’d be able to jump over and catch a game in the league stages.

Enjoy the trip pal. I have never done one, not doing this one but would seriously consider freiburg.....got some brownie points with Mrs grizzly to cash in

MJC is watching it also.........defo 4-0 hjk 🤣🤣

Great post mate, but just wanted to touch on this point from a different perspective. Said I think is a tremendous talent and technically one of the most skillful players i've seen at FP. His close control is unreal. I know what you mean about some decision making and simple things not quite working at times, but personally i'd rather watch him week in week out than not. If AJ can help with these small things we'll have one hell of player there and he's still relatively young is he not - 23 or 24? As an aside, was speaking to a hibs supporter at my work who said he thought RCC caused them a lot of problems which was interesting to hear. Maybe we don't give him the credit he's due or have higher expectations given his experience/ past with ross county in the league. Onwards to Helsinki! Buzzing as it will be my first away euro trip with the well after regrettably missing euro adventures in the past for various reasons. COYW

Only seen the last 15 minutes or so, but not quaking in my boots so far.

HJK are playing a league game right now, away to SJK who are 3rd bottom. 33' played 0-0

That was from the Sky commentary.

Let's concentrate on hjk first then we can think about falkirk

Correct he was close to it and would have been even closer if the ball was properly on the spot. Have a look at it Boyle places the ball in front of the spot. Cheating diving shite bag.

1-2 loss as our Falkirk hoodoo continues.

He was still knackard!!!!!!!!

Love the stand up for motherwell,its our anthem,bin twist and shout,cant stand it.

Not saying HJK are easy or that we will beat them but I don’t think we should be afraid of them. Had a look at Finnish league and I don’t really know any of the teams. I see Aberdeen drew their two games with them a few years ago. In the conference league they have played 28 games, lost 15, drawn 6 and won 7

Like it. Was that on Sky comms or club TV? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Freiburg would be a great away trip too. I went about 10 years ago. Easy transport. Great fans, stadium and beer. Tough games to come of course but fingers crossed.

As others have said a wee bit of a mixed bag. Some very good, some good and some bad but on balance a great result at a place where others will struggle. I think it’s worth bearing in mind that with us playing our European ties on Thursdays, especially the away legs, that fatigue will be a big factor in the league games we play afterwards, particularly this early in the season. You see this a lot with teams more used to this than us so I think the players need to be cut some slack if this happens.

Need to just keep plugging away, hopefully beat HJK home and away and increase our club-coefficient for next year.

Everyone has different personalities. I am sure he will be on board same as Everyone else
