FT 1-1 and I'm glad I didn't attend this match today mainly because of the frustration of watching so many gilt-edged scoring opps being scorned by Hibs forwards who, on occasions, seemed to think that the goal was located in row z behind the Dee goal. Hibs must have had about 20+ shots on goal with Dundee the exact opposite and 'shot shy'!! Their goalie, Baine, certainly saved them but IMO they never deserved a single point out of this match TBF. As for the pk award, agreed re that unnecessary slow lunge on Deacon by Whittaker, but I must say you don't award a pk to a player who is already 'diving' well before any kinda 'coming together' and I'd certainly challenge BT Sport's Andy Walker re his take on that pk award itself. In other words, the poor challenge by Whittaker (in Walker's view) merited that pk decision but Deacon was already in the process of his 'swan dive'!!! A good number of decent refs (incl me!) would have rebuffed his appeal and explained to him, in no uncertain terms, that he was 'playing for it'!! I thought Barker and Stokesy + possibly Fraser Murray with a 'snip' of a goal opp, should have put some 'gloss' on a decent Hibs win today but it wasn't to be. We move on with a slight concern that our strikers are lacking a bit of clinical awareness and should be 'banging in the goals' that endorse a decent performance/victory!!
