RE: craig thomson - hibeejim21 - 12-09-2016
Another masterclass from thomson at tynecastle yesterday going by the sport scene highlights
RE: craig thomson - Fredstersafool - 12-09-2016
He was a joke Jim I've no seen highlights but Watt for me was a pen he made it look theatrical but he was fouled and if he'd just fallen over natural he'd have got it,was Nicholson a pen that looked a stonewalled from where I was sitting,Thomson needs to retire.
RE: craig thomson - hibeejim21 - 12-09-2016
Yup.
Watts was a 100% pk,but he made too much of it so you run the risk of getting it ruled out. Nicholson's looked very soft in my opinion and I think he was looking for it. Hamilton had a very good pk shout ruled out afterwards as well.
He's fuckin diabolical - I don't get how he regularly gets built up in the media to be our best ref.
RE: craig thomson - Fredstersafool - 12-09-2016
I was right behind the watt one was stonewall and it's the way he's gone down that got nothing and a booking,Sams looked stonewall too but I'm at the other end of the ground for that one,we battered them though and should have been at least three up at HT then get caught out,but Thomson was dreadful all day,if you think he's a jambo he's been doing his best to prove that wrong lol.
RE: craig thomson - hibeejim21 - 12-09-2016
When you see the Nicholson one again its deffo not a pk,not for me anyway. Looks like he dived.
The one on imrie down the other end looked pretty straightforward. Thomsons had a nightmare again,hes an atrocious referee.
Also the boy Crawford for Hamilton looks really good,im surprised a bigger club hasn't snapped him up.
RE: craig thomson - 0762 - 12-09-2016
Thomson is a Hearts fan and an ex ST holder at Tynecastle in the 1990s - confirmed to me a long time ago by a lad who worked with him at Forth Electrical - fact!! Don't be duped by anyone saying otherwise hibeejim! The events at Tynecastle don't surprise me any more - I'm well past that stage and suggest you study his own own form/results for Hearts matches and Hibs matches - mentioned and shown on a few Hibs fans' web sites for years! The guy is a biased class act and overrated as most of us know only too well apart from officials at the SFA. But what's new on that score eh?
RE: craig thomson - HerefordBull - 12-09-2016
I think he tries not to be biased anymore but unfortunately as a ref he is just cr*p.
RE: craig thomson - Fredstersafool - 12-09-2016
0762 we'll take the word of yer mate eh!? For the record he gave us nothing on Saturday he was a joke for both sides regardless of Watt being over enthusiastic in going over it was a stonewall pen as for Nicholson's I'm no sure it was but then I'm no sure it wasnt,anyhow I'd only ever expect a bigoted post from you your hatred of all things hearts consumes you.
RE: craig thomson - hibeejim21 - 12-09-2016
If the player overembellishes it Fred then the ref is right to rule it out,so it could be argued he got the watt one right. The Nicholson one I'm sure isnae a Pk,you can see he dived from the reverse angle.
Need to see the accies one again but they were going mental about it,so its possible thomsons incompetence has cost accies the chance of a point.
RE: craig thomson - Fredstersafool - 12-09-2016
I'm not going to dispute any of them Jim but Watts reaction have Thomson the decision he correctly made if he'd just fell we'd have been given the the PK I think that's about the only decision Thomson got bang on the whole game he was dreadful
