Looks like Killie's home form in the SPL continues.

 

Couldn't happen to a better group of cunts. 

 

45:11 GOAL - Richard Offiong

Kilmarnock 0 - Hamilton 1

 

Tousy first half, 5 bookings!

Watching the EPL, Juergen Koop better not be complaining after today’s game, Liverpool have been the beneficiary of several referee decisions, most obviously the non award of a penalty to Fulham in the 1st half.

Another VAR failure. Clear and obvious error and not overturned.

Any chance that this will be looked at by the beaks tomorrow and he'll be suspended...I mean the DU player for diving, obviously..  

I didn't think they'd be allowed to given that the ref had already dealt with it. It's a definite red. It must be frustrating for a manager to see an obviously talented player do that sort of thing, it was such a ridiculously stupid action, and not even hard enough to hurt the player either. In fairness to the ref, from his angle it possibly just comes across as "leading with the arm" rather than what it was, which was an actual deliberate elbow. The former being a yellow in most cases.

Edit: more importantly, what about the BBC coverage? I didn't watch sportscene, but I'm guessing they discussed it properly, but normally you'd have the "was this a red card" video singled out (like happened for Ferguson, correctly, the other week) with the incident shown on its own and the pundits view. Instead it goes with a "there's no elbow there" headline with Gerrard's view on the incident. Blatant pandering, again. Concerned they'll get accused of picking on the hun, or specifically, Morelos. Any objective coverage would show this incident in its own right as it merits it - it's the very obvious controversial talking point of the games which likely had a significant impact on the result.

Gerrard says 'no elbow'. Ah well, that's fine then. He kens fine it's a red.

A more blatant red you'd struggle to find. What we are watching in Scotland is not really a sporting competition, it's a fraud. Referees should be sourced from all over Scotland but most of them come from one area and are incredibly biased.

To be fair most of the population of the country come from one area so it stands to reason that the majority of the referees do. 
 

Gerrard is at it though as he knows that was a red card.

Well there's a rule in England which specifically prevents a referee from officiating a match which involves his home town team.

In Scotland, the exact opposite applies. The more connections you have, the more qualified you are. Hence we have Ibrox season ticket holders with whistles in their mouths pretending to be objective.

If the same rule was applied in Scotland, half these chancers would have to retire.

Apologies to the BBC, the analysis is up there now, just took them a minute, which is to be expected.

Looking like French football is in the shite following collapse of their TV deal.

Time for a cheeky bid for Mbappe. Sure he can play left back.

Accepting a massive payout from a TV company with zero financial scrutiny is so 2009.

By no means an expert or have any real knowledge of French sport but for some reason in my head football never seemed to be a big deal in France which seemed to explain the lack of success of their clubs at European level - Only 1 Champions league and 1 Cup winners cup.
The national team success came from players not applying their trade in France and for some reason I recall there being a bit of controversy in the early 90s where they adopted a policy of only choosing french based players which was potentially a reason for their failure to qualify for the 1994 world cup. That last bit is either bullshit or was a very short lived.

Either way 3.25billion for a league which Ive certainly never seen advertised around the world seems so ludicrous surely someone had to say 'hold on a minute'? 
Will we find out later that PSG, Marseille, Lyon, & Monaco voted against it but the rest of the clubs just saw 'free cash'?

It's a pity the TV deal in Scotland wouldn't collapse, given it's what ruined our league in the first place.

The really annoying thing is the folk behind the deal that collapsed the last time are back involved in our game with Premier Sports being Setanta.

Aye, the company which bought Celtic and Rangers games only in the Scottish Cup.

The duopoly we have will go on forever under the current setup since most of the money is funnelled upwards to 2 teams. Corruption in other words.

Hearts doing to Celtic what Aberdeen couldn’t. Christie should be red carded for that.

Jammy Celtic bastards 

Bets on Lennon now getting to leave “by mutual consent” and go out a “winner”?

Would not be surprised at all if that was exactly what happens.

The keeper emerges a hero even though he had a shocking game. Lennon is cluelessness personified.

Broony spent the say doing what Broony does best, brinv a twenty four carot gold cunt. What an embarrassment of a man but the Victims and the media just lap it up sadly

He did really well for the third goal, but shouting in the Hertz player's face was minky as fuck and likely should have been a booking if the ref had spotted it. Trying to get a player (Naismith) sent off also used to be a booking(as he did in the league cup final a few years back against us when trying to get Jack sent off) but not today. He hid for most of the game, a shadow of the player from even last season.

Motherwell’s 3-0 wins reversed as Killie and St Mirren have appealed. 
 

https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/55433000

Puts Motherwell down to 10th which means we now have had run of games against 5 of the bottom 6 only winning 2.

Quite frankly, that’s pathetic for a team with any ambitions at the top of the table. And actually quite un-McInnes like.

Sam alardyce’s west brom got pumped 5-0 by Leeds at home. Hilarious own goal for the first. Passing back to your keeper blindly ?‍♂️

Not me unfortunately MBT.

Remember it very clearly

 

Made so much better by the fact that they were engaging in the classic unsporting behaviour pre pass back rule. It's amazing how good a rule the pass back rule is. Simple and effective and doesn't take away from the spirit and flow of the game whilst not making it too difficult/unfair for keepers (Leighton, Langfield can be excused for the purposes of my point).
