    Excellent decision to scrap replays, all the lower league fans complaining about it saying that their clubs rely on them to make money, if your business plan relies on the slim chance of a replay against a bigger club then you shouldn’t be in business in the first place. 

    I think this will create more cup upsets.

     

    A smaller team who have drawn with a bigger team will have a better chance of winning in extra time or pens than winning a replay.

     

    Win the tie & make more money in the next round.

    In the season Rangers (1872) reached the UEFA Cup final, St. Mirren played them at Love Street in a pre-split fixture AFTER the split. (the match was originally scheduled for 8th January).

    So there is w precedent for doing this.

    Yes, it only becomes an issue if we need the fixture to know who's in top 6.

     

    In the Covid curtailed season Rangers v St Johnstone wasn't rescheduled & may have been needed to decide top 6.

    If he did - and I didn’t see that from the stand so taking your word - shouldn’t he still have been sent off despite the advantage?

    If a player puts in a late tackle the ref will go back and book the player after the phase of play - I don’t see the difference. 

    Not particularly passionate about it - just a query on the rules really. 

    Only if he denied a goalscoring opportunity. Must be Mitovs 1st absolute howler so far.

    Felt like all our defenders stopped waiting for the ref, if one dropped back would have been a routine clearance.

    People are still diving and faking injuries, VAR is not the panacea you think it is.

    Id guess less people are booked for diving now. Ref's leave the penalty decision to VAR & they cant get involved for yellow cards.

    Not outrageous to suggest we could be bottom this time next week. 

    A lot to be worried about but my biggest concern is level of signing in January .  A real feel of "f**k it, let's have a punt" about them.

    Three years and we're still playing a formation with wing backs without any actual wingback available. 

     

    It is pretty outrageous if Livvy get 8 points in 2 games.

    Hearts were simply battered by a far superior team in that semi-final. Saints finished league cup runners up (to financially doped rangers) and Scottish cup semi finalists (also knocked out by rangers) and finished 3rd in the premier league that season. Enjoy..

     

    Pumped lower league Hibs in the quarters?
