Not going to as I have better things to do with my time, but I could dig out 10 or more similar incidents at corners that have gone unpunished in the last week or 2 alone. 

Can’t believe I’m saying this but to be fair to Beaton he didn’t give it.  Technically correct after VAR review so question is more why similar incidents are not all subject to VAR. that’s the more likely bias in favour of old firm, especially at home.

He doesn't need to agree with VAR though

Going by the rules of the game it’s a penalty and when VAR is operating then you’re never getting away with that.

That was not the reason we lost today and can’t be used as an excuse for it. We just weren’t good enough.

How the fuck Said lasted as long before being hooked is a mystery. Offers nothing. Oh wait he does. Loses possession and always passes to the opposition.

You could have said the same about Slattery today. Number of times he gave the ball away around his own box was ridiculous. Elliot Watt brought every break forward to a standstill. Said was much less of an offender than either of them.

Said caused the first goal. He should have hooked it over his head and cleared it. Instead he plays a short pass which starts the whole farce.

On a plus point Hibs failed to beat Livingston at home and drew 0-0 so very much still advantage us in the race for 4th. Next week at home against them is absolutely massive, we need to beat them to increase our lead and also to get back on track otherwise we could suddenly find ourselves in a bit of a rut after such a good run.

Irrespective of the penalty we have been poor in the 2nd half.

Defence overall today has struggled and no threat up front.

Like first game we shot ourselves in the foot conceeding a soft goal and never recovered.

Never a disgrace to lose in Glasgow given the resources they have and officials to help out when needed.

Said, Longelo and Sparrow way to slack with ball and poor defensively.

JT was non existent. 

So thats four players down during game. Struggle to win when thats happening.

Said did not cause that goal. Sparrow has to clear the ball down the line. 2nd goal is tragic from Longelo but why is he even picking up Maeda in the first place. 3rd goal is fresh out of Sunday league literally a punt down the park and he's clean through. Win the next 2 games and we're in a decent position to come 4th. Would probably leave us needing maybe 4 points from the other 6 games.

Maybe now we can start looking at the fact that O'Donnell will be 34 next season, McGinn will be 36 and Welsh will be somewhere else earning much more money.

That's what I'm thinking Mcghee is here next season so needs to be given a run to see if he's going to be a potential first choice. I'd play Welsh until we secure 4th as he is comfortably our best CB.

We will just have to disagree

Played well in the 1st half, but didn’t really deserve anything from that 2nd half performance. Although how different it could have been if the 2 big refereeing decisions had gone our way (never going to happen in Glasgow)

Great that Hibs only gained a point on us though.

I thought Celtic had first 15 mins of second half and then we started to control the ball more but then PK and red killed us. We didn’t do well at the corner, Ward missed the ball and Longello was caught on wrong side of Maeda.

I would be suprised if we dont bring in a few defenders in the summer.

Our record against top 6 not that impressive.  It's against bottom 6 we have built up the points.  Need to ge5 back on track

Alot of people both inside and more so outside of our support have gotten way too carried away about us this season.

Yes we have been excellent and have turned in some great performances resulting in some big wins. Celtic at home being the main one, likewise Hibs at Fir Park and fairly comfortably took care of a good few of the bottom six sides especially at home. But as I said earlier we have failed to record a single win away against any of the current top six and have failed to beat either Rangers or Hearts despite all the credit (or “billing and coo-ing as Tam Cowan put it) over our performances in those games. We have also failed miserably in two massive yet on paper very winnable cup ties.

I described us as being “Fur coat and no knickers” earlier in the season and I stand by that.

fair play to anybody that spends money going to that shit hole because you know what you’re getting 

100% agree we’re not getting a penalty for that & the reds just nonsense 

crying out for a physicality up front to get us up the park in the 2nd half 

subs definitely needed before the penalty, at 1 point just ran past longelo to block a cross 

No doubt sparrows fault for the 1st so not sure where the debate is there 

 

big week next week

Why would be good enough? They spend much more than us, you need luck and a strong ref...hibs drew so it could've been a lot worse.We played really well today,  maybe too open but that's yhe type of players we have

Totally agree with the comments. I think JT is believing his own hype to much. I think the manager will make a few changes for next week. Good to see another Prestwick Well fan on the forum! 🙂
