Kendo Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 Wasn't at the game - was in bed suffering from a shoulder injury, propped up with pillows, ice pack applied, and drugged up to the eyeballs with painkillers, anti-imflammatory tablets, and the radio on. Fcuking onset of old age. Falling apart at the seams! You sound like a chap from Arbroath. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Seaside Nipper Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 Who gives a f**k if we don't have a player in the team of the day? We won, Hibs lost. The opinion of a Sunday Mail journo doesn't carry any actual weight. Out of interest, did he mention Goodwin in his match report? Team of the day makes no sense anyway. Unless the same person has watched all 90 minutes in every game then I don't give two shiney shites who is selected for the team of the day because there is no set criteria. How can they choose any one player for a position over any other without the same person compiling the team watching all of the games? Pointless shite.

saintnextlifetime Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 Thommo goal a thing of beauty. How biased was that commentary,Goodwin done feck all for his yellow. A witch hunt right enough. The handball at the end,both players handled the ball Campbell and the Hibs boy Exactly. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
saintnextlifetime Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 Why do people say Butcher is a shite manager when he's clearly not? Now if you said DL I might of agreed with you. All about opinions. Indeed it is !! Butcher is a shite manager. . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/scotland/25803701 No coverage of the Goodwin booking at all in the BBC highlights. Interesting. These highlights are better in terms of fully appreciating Campbell's contribution. He was leaving opponents for dead. That is great to watch, and something that we don't see nearly enough in football. Again, a shout for John McGinn. What a player! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callum Gilhooley Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 Just watched the highlights again. Three f**kin fantastic goals. Fast, direct free flowing football ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beyond our ken Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 What it meant was After a great and slightly unexpected 3 pts v Utd we then put in 2 poor performances losing 5 points to teams we'd realistically hope to get something more. No point winning at Easter Road if we don't now follow up with a win v Thistle. I dont get your last point, 3 points are 3 points. Certain points dont count for more or less than others when tallied up at the end of season i'll take the win and a great performace and be extremely happy with that. Next week's result will be what it will be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wilbur Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 I dont get your last point, 3 points are 3 points. Certain points dont count for more or less than others At the moment our priority is to finish 10th or better to avoid the threat of relegation. Beating Partick would be a better result for us than beating Hibs because a win for us also means a defeat for Partick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dirty Sanchez Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 I used to read as many papers as I could, but I can honestly say that I have barely looked at a match report since May 2001 after reading Ewing Grahame's effort following that amazing day of high drama, and twists and turns, that eventually saw us relegated. With so much incredible stuff to write about, I couldn't quite understand why I was reading lazy, negative cliched rubbish about how fat Mark Yardley was, etc, etc. I had long since reached the conclusion that newspaper match reports are an irrelevance in the modern era, so I can't pin it all on Ewing Grahame, but it can certainly go on his epitaph that he wrote a match report so bad that it stopped someone from buying newspapers forever. I'm not sure that's what he was looking to achieve when he got into the profession. Summary: Who gives a f*ck what these guys think. They're no more equipped to dish out worthwhile opinion than butchers, bakers or candlestick makers who've watched the same game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr Zo Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 John McGinn was outstanding on the highlights. All three goals came directly from something positive he did. A very special talent. I don't think we realise just how good McGinn is and how good he could become. He has it all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

E=Mc2 Posted January 19, 2014 Report Share Posted January 19, 2014 I know this has been a good result for us but thats 2 defeats in a row for Butcher. Sacked in the morning i think. Seriously. We would never have came back from 3 down so fair doos. Neither did they. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

davidg Posted January 20, 2014 Report Share Posted January 20, 2014 Daily record and Sunday Mail match reports couldn't be more different if they tried. Fair play to the DR match report, full of praise for our players and our crisp passing especially in the first half. Also backed Goodwin.

No point winning at Easter Road if we don't now follow up with a win v Thistle. No point? If we had lost to Hibs and beat Thistle would you be happy? If so, why the negativity now... its still 3 points. I'd call it a wee bit of unexpected insurance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bud the Baker Posted January 20, 2014 Report Share Posted January 20, 2014 No point? If we had lost to Hibs and beat Thistle would you be happy? If so, why the negativity now... its still 3 points. I'd call it a wee bit of unexpected insurance. Well yes & no! If we'd beaten Hibs & lost to Thistle & they would have been comparatively 1 point better off over the two week period, lose to Hibs and beat Thistle and we would be 2 points better off over the corresponding period. All hypothetical like! ****************************** It's more important to pick up points against our immediate rivals for the play-off spot with the points swing - we will be level with Thistle on points if we lose, 3 ahead if we draw and the proverbial 6 ahead if we win. Like I said on the other thread when Thistle took the lead on Saturday they were provisionally in 8th place but finished up in 11th by 5pm - look out them brown trousers!
