  1. Yeah. The statement does have a point regarding some folk not knowing the laws, or choosing to ignore them when it suits. Ex players banging on about 'no malice' or 'accidental' is embarrassing. When they are being paid to give opinions, surely it's not to much to ask they are informed opinions. Saturday's decision is just as embarrassing. As you say, according to the current laws of the game, there was absolutely nothing wrong with that goal, so how can at least two paid, trained officials with the benefit of endless replays make such a pig's ear of it?
  2. Perfect summation. But they have one possible get out of jail card left to play - it was judged to be deliberate handball. If they dare to suggest that was the call, our game's even more screwed than it currently appears.
  3. As I read it, they're admitting there are problems, but they're blaming most of them on other people not understanding the rules. They've done a great job, apparently, so bugger all will change.
  4. 1: "Work together to alleviate the unsustainable pressure on match officials and VAR operators." = Stop moaning about ludicrous decisions. 2: "This includes all key external stakeholders having a better understanding of the laws of the game, the lines of intervention for VAR and the adopted guidance within Scottish football, especially in subjective areas such as the handball law." = Managers, players and fans don't understand the laws of the game. Mind you, when it comes to what is or isn't handball, we don't have a feckin clue either, so each referee and VAR operator will continue to make it up as they go along. At which time, we'll refer you to point 1.
  5. We might make it to more cup finals with McInnes. He's helped us into 2 already.
  6. I'm knackered, you'll need to explain that to me.
  7. An Old Firm title decider, decided by VAR then overturned by the SFA - you ain't seen nothing yet.
  8. Outwith the Glasgow pair, is there any manager in the Premier League folk would like to have at Fir Park?
  9. Couldn't possibly work. Every goal changes a game and the way both teams approach it. Imagine a team was one nil up in a must win game to avoid relegation, lost a late-ish equaliser which was subsequently chopped off for handball, sat in and got the 3 points to stay up. Then, a day or two later, the decision is reversed and they're relegated. The fall-out would be epic.
  10. They've drawn up a shortlist of interested parties and targets currently managing elsewhere, but they haven't even approached their clubs for permission to speak to them yet. Sounds like a complete shambles.
  11. No new manager before our game, according to Burrows.
  12. Yeah, there was nothing in his career stats that suggested he was likely to repeat, or even get near, last season's goal tally. It's something the folk who think we should sell Fir Park to get Spittal tied down need to remember. When one of our guys has a career best year, both parties come out of it winners, but consistently great players just don't sign here in the first place.
  13. Killie were god awful today, it was a cup tie, Aberdeen's interim manager's just walked and they may or may not have a new guy in charge by the time we play them. I wouldn't take too much from today. The pressure's back on them midweek, so we'll see how they handle that.
