MOTM Poll Hearts v Rangers - 12:30 Saturday - Sky Sports

[Cooperfan]

We seem to have just stopped playing.

 

[TheMarbleStaircase]

Hate how we never go for the jugular in games like this

We should have Morelos on along with Colak and going for maximum goals, we seem to have slowed everything down.

 

[Bryanmc]

Far too slow and safe from us this half

 

[Macky]

Stopped no matter what.

This is the rule I have found

If the ball touches the referee or another match official and goes into the goal, or results in a change of possession or a promising attack, a dropped ball will be awarded.

 

[Ibrox Doug]

Don’t know why we don’t go for the jugular. Get game killed and then rest for trip to Liverpool. Could get 5 here if we went for it

 

[Godrup99]

Sands’ positioning is very poor.

Clearly not a centre back.

A bit like McCrorie.

Noticeable difference we liked better actually playing players where they play. Davies as a centre back versus sands.

 

[NDC bear forever]

McLean is having an absolute mare here

 

[JamesyMRR]

This is a really poor second half

 

[HowdenEnder]

A man up and still struggling to find a ball forwards, pick up the pace Rangers.

 

[cambie gers]

McLean has lost the plot

 

[whyme]

Refs lost the plot.

 

[Airplane]

A man up and we are struggling to play out

 

[GazzaNumber8]

Mcleans a clown

 

[Stuartyrangers1]

That refs at it ffs

 

[Geerfc19]

McLean doing everything he can to stop any momentum for us

 

[Donsky]

What is this ref doing?

 

[Hoojar McKinney]

This referee is an absolute cunt.

 

[Avalonpark]

McLean. That’s awful. Utter cheat

 

[two2tango]

More one paced shite

Get the ball moving ffs

 

[Pirlo]

Utter fanny of a ref.

 

[Roscoblue]

Below is the wording within the Laws of the Game for the drop ball incident.

The ball is out of play when:
• it has wholly passed over the goal line or touchline on the ground or in the air
• play has been stopped by the referee
• it touches a match official, remains on the field of play and:
• a team starts a promising attack or
• the ball goes directly into the goal or
• the team in possession of the ball changes
In all these cases, play is restarted with a dropped ball.

 

[bear_with_me]

We need another couple of goals here. We look soft when they press.

 

[KGer29]

OH MY GOD. This ref is spoiling this game

 

[blue genes]

The performance is fine, we’re 2 up against 10 men. We don’t really need to do anything here.

We have been really poor in the second half so far

 

[Macky]

This is the rule I have found

If the ball touches the referee or another match official and goes into the goal, or results in a change of possession or a promising attack, a dropped ball will be awarded.

Would explain why it was stopped as we had a promising attack

 

[Herbie53]

Game has died a death since the first 2 subs

 

[WinkieWATP]

Refs a dick

 

[easton78]

Fuckin advantage ya tool.

 

[bilkobear]

The referee is making a cvunt of this.

 

[Scarface]

Humphy bastard.

 

[douzpwa]

Show no respect up the pace have a go!

 

[Chris the Bandito]

This is so frustrating following this at Seville Airport. I'm not sure if we are rough but up, playing OK but up. I don't suppose FF match thread is the best way to follow a match.

We were excellent until the sending off. Now we're trying to win without expending any energy so it's walking pace. Still dominating the ball but creating little and there is a sneaky feeling we've got a really bad mistake in us as we keep inviting the press but not taking any advantage to break once we get round it.

 

[scooter70]

Refs lost the plot here

Utterly clueless

 

[TN8]

This is absolutely unreal from McLean.

 

[YorkshireBlue]

Play advantage and book him after FFS.

 

[Macdonsj]

2 nil up
they're down to 10

and yet the ref has been utterly abysmal

 

[Marlo Stanfield]

McLean is a halfwit

 

[Leif Erikson]

Stopped no matter what.

So it's completely bizarre he allowed us to play on until we were in the box.

 

[Ubik]

this ref is disgraceful.

 

[Southsideblueblood]

The standard of refs is beyond a joke.

 

[South Belfast Broxi]

Ref is a tube

 

[butch70]

Barisic is all over the place it’s him that’s causing the panic

 

[Crouchy]

Noticeable difference we liked better actually playing players where they play. Davies as a centre back versus sands.

Game opens up quicker and the ball moves a lot better.

Plus, we can read the danger.

Not Sands’ fault, just not a CD.

 

[GJB1]

This referee needs to brush up on the advantage rule ffs

 

[Barrymoped]

I don’t know what’s worse here. Rangers performance, or the referee.

2-0 up at Tynecastle and absolutely cruising, like a training game. There isn’t a bear among us who wouldn’t have bitten your hand off for this at the start.

Ref is pish, no question there.
Cheer up mate.

 

[Macky]

They aren’t playing to the rules then.

Was because it was a promising attack which is fair enough but he took an age to stop it.

 

[giogaddi]

What more can be said about McLean?

 

[Chester Loyal]

We’re in total control but until we get a third the game isn’t done.

We lack a killer instinct and a clinical edge though, big time.

 

[Got_The_Blues]

Your 'philosophy' is fucking shite Van Bronckhorst

A wins a win but we’ve not been great once again.

 

[scottm]

Worst ref in Scotland by quite a distance and that’s saying something.
