Haha.
Only posted because I actually felt it was interesting that Dermott criticises the VAR on the red card debate. Saying it only showed part of the incident in slow mo. I don't agree with him, I think VAR done it's job in this instance and there's clearly enough for the referee to admit he fucked up rather than double down.
As for the penalty, I tend to agree that it's factual rather than subjective. The referee clearly thought that the Motherwell defender got to the ball first and Lyons caught him. At real speed I don't really blame the referee here, but VAR for not stepping in and saying hold on actually...
So for me it's 1 major balls up by the ref, 1 major balls up by VAR (with addition of a minor balls up from the ref for the same penalty incident).
What chance have we got?

Big win (remember them?) for Hibs in the Edinburgh derby.

Some really good football, good atmosphere and Aberdeen dug meat.

So I have a mate that tries to convince me that Scottish football is more exciting/has better atmosphere than the PL.
Is that true or is it just 50 years behind?

Is it not Dunfermline v Raith?Dunfermline v Falkirk tonight.Should be worth a watch.
Live on bbc Scotland website.
Atmosphere wise Scottish football is miles ahead but that’s not saying much considering the lack of atmosphere in the English game.So I have a mate that tries to convince me that Scottish football is more exciting/has better atmosphere than the PL.

I would hardly say it’s more exciting. If you have no interest in something it’s kinda difficult to get excited about it
No it is Falkirk a much better game.Is it not Dunfermline v Raith?
Great result but Aberdeens collapse has been spectacularKillie tremendous today.

Yer mates at it. Only St Mirren really play that way and that’s down to their manager. Big physical team that pretty much go route 1. His Motherwell team were the same.according to my mate its end to end with crunching real men tackles. Not like the big girls blouses in the PL.

The standard is grim but teams do try and play football.
English players are bigger , fitter and can be as physical as anybody.
Three men have been arrested for carrying or using pyrotechnics before the Edinburgh derby between Hearts and Hibs on Boxing Day.
Two men, aged 17 and 28, have been arrested and charged for possessing pyro in the city's Haymarket area before kick-off at Tynecastle stadium.
A 39-year-old man was arrested and charged in connection with setting off pyro on Russell Road.
Police Scotland stated it was continuing to investigate four smoke devices that were set off within the stadium itself during the match, which Hibs won 2-1 with a late goal from Dwight Gayle.
Police Scotland Assistant Chief Constable Gary Ritchie said fans setting off pyro around football matches was putting other supporters at risk.
He added: "I would ask people to think of the impact it could have on those around you, particularly people with medical conditions, young children and the elderly."
New laws came into force in June 2023 making it illegal to carry flares or fireworks into public places, while a number of Scottish clubs have had issues with supporters using pyro at matches.
Earlier in December Celtic, Rangers and Motherwell were all charged by the SPFL following "irresponsible" and "unacceptable" use of flares by fans during the Premier Sports Cup semi-finals at Hampden Park.
