Bookmakers have paid out money they don't have to? Was the snow in Edinburgh purple by any chance?!
Free publicity.

Wouldn't have been a huge pay out.

Euan Norris and his team of officials will face no action for missing the goal that Hibs never scored.

Although when SPL officials are refereeing SFL3 games week in week out, there isn't that fear of demotion.

I'd like to see the refereeing reports be put up on the SFA website each week to see how the guy in the stand has viewed the performance of the referee and assistants.

No official action. But the linesman will probably find himself at Clyde or East Stirling for a couple of weeks.

if the linesman can see whether a player is onside when the ball is played then they should spot when the ball is that far over the line.

Dont buy that excuse but entirely expected from Kenny Clark.

Is that not the whole point though? The Linesman has to be in line to see offside so can't possibly be in line with the goal as well.

When the ball is that far over the line the linesman really should be seeing it - it wasn't even close.

If he can see the ball being played and the position of the last line of defenders then they should be able to see where the ball is when it bounced half way into the goal.

Last year Hibs got a goal when the ball was about 4 feet in front of goal - their excuses aren't even consistent.

No, the 4th goal for Hibs against Dunfermline was about 6 inches at most in front of the line. I just looked at it again.

So the SFL Ceo is trying to get Rangers up the leagues quicker than everyone else and is basing the idea of colt teams on the ones the Milan sides dont have.

Turnbull Hutton says David Longmuir is trying to get into bed with Rangers and as a result they will rebel against his proposals.

Sad that the self interest of one League CEO may well derail the league reconstruction process.

If Longmuir is serious about 'Colt' teams then why don't we just have a 12-18-18 format where the top 6 in the SPL get the option to field a 'colt' team in SFL2 the following season.

Scrap the 8-8-8 and instead have the bottom 2 in the SPL go down and the 3rd bottom play the 2nd-4th teams in SFL in a relegation playoff.

I presume that Aberdeen will be after Derek Adams and will also try to get his dad along as well.

I have no idea where people get the idea that footballers are thick from.

They are the outtakes to make a funny video ripping it out of the squad.

Unless you are suggesting that most footballers in the EPL, when stuck in front of a camera, get everything right first time?
