Have some faith in Magic Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Ross county V Falkirk play off final. County Player takes a dive and gets a penalty to change the course of the match and win the game....... Ah, but, but, but, that is different.

It's came out in a couple of post match interviews, seems likely enough tbh. Yeah so basically it was dafc that brought it to the attention of the sfa and not them discovering it for themselves. If you had simply put the full highlights up that wouldve been one thing but you highlighted that one incident. I think we can safely.say that nothing wouldve happened like all the other incidents that happen in the champ and lower leagues without dafc putting that on the internet and whining in the press.

I still find it a bit strange that you get banned for the ref getting it wrong? Me too. Who's to say that Hippo did con the ref rather than collided with the keeper, potentially after the keeper had cleared it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy85 Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 I genuinely couldn't envisage a scenario where the Bairns managed to out-seethe the Dunfermline fans, yet here we are. Pretty incredible stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poet of the Macabre Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Hippolyte getting punished internally by the club for trying to con the referee. 2-match ban. Yet the Falkirk supporters treat the man like a hero. Honestly expected better from you guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They wouldn't retrospectively change result of the match. 2 game ban would be the result. Precedent had been set. Moan like little bitches to the press and you can get folk banned.

Reggie Perrin Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 No seethe and in no way incredible. We beat you as usual and we have a player suspended for two games who's carrying an injury anyway (probably caused by your donkey of a keeper trying to ram his head up Hippos arse).Will be nicely rested for the playoffs. Good luck in your mighty struggle for 5 th place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimmy85 Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 The easiest way to avoid a 2 match ban for diving is, erm, don't dive. The victim complex and paranoia here is ridiculous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have some faith in Magic Posted April 25, 2017 Share Posted April 25, 2017 Deary me. So the perpetrator of the act for Ross County should not be dealt with by the authorities if the ref makes an arse of it? I think most football fans would agree it should be looked at retrospectively. Divers need to be held to account. Preferably during the game where they get caught and booked (see Hopkirk) but if it is missed retrospective punishment needs to apply. Falkirk player took a dive, got away with it and was punished retrospectively, not sure how anybody can think it should just get ignored if evidence exists. It just encourages folk to fling themselves to the ground. Surely nobody wants that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
