I don't think so. The decision was probably a mixture of precaution and punishment, to discourage any future finals ending the same way. I don't think any player or fans minded too much though. 10 cup final defeats in a row and 114 years without winning the Cup has been something that Hibs fans...

There is a right way to behave if you are making statements as a football club, and Rangers have fallen well short of that, to an embarrassing level. There were several parties at fault for a variety of incidents and there will be a lot of blame spread around over the coming weeks. Hibs fans...

Delighted for Hibs to finally break their curse.

It's a good job for him, and I think a good appointment for Celtic as well. It's a guaranteed league title for anyone, but I think he'll play good football and keep the fans happy. Their cup record is appalling for a side that spends more than the other 11 sides put together, so he can only...

He's a funny player but Kevin Nicholson really wanted him here and seemed to get the best out of him. He got 8 in 17 for us, which you can't knock. I can see why he's not universally popular as I think when he's low on form and confidence, and not getting any rhythm, he'd just look awkward and...

Not tinpot, but I enjoyed the Edinburgh City programme last weekend. Firstly, they haven't finished the league season yet, although have already won the play-offs. They had already won the Lowland League, and so had to play Cove Rangers, who won the Highland League, and then the winners faced...

Many congratulations to them. I went to the first leg last week and it's a good set-up. Quite interestingly, they haven't finished the league season yet, although have already won the play-offs. They had already won the Lowland League, and so had to play Cove Rangers, who won the Highland...

Rangers taking on wages like Barton with their current losses and historic debts, would pretty much destroy any hope for the rest of the country that Scottish football will ever change. In other news, Edinburgh City beat East Stirling this afternoon in the play-offs to earn promotion to the...

You could see that coming a mile off. That's the third time in 31 days that Hibs have played Falkirk and the exact same thing has happened in all three games. If you can't learn from your mistakes then you don't deserve to get promoted. I do think Hibs have some excellent players, but they do...

Cambridge finished outside the play-offs but won the boat race, so swings and roundabouts.

He never even lasted the season at Aberdeen, and I think was paid off with more than a year to go. I rated him at Burton though, and he had a much better record than Stockley has in L2. Stockley is still young enough to improve though, especially with Hayes, McGinn, Shinnie and Logan playing...

It is a funny one. I don't have all that fond memories of him from his loan spell at Torquay, when he scored one goal in about 17 appearances and we got relegated out the league with our highest scoring striker on 3 league goals. He's obviously improved since then though, and has a better record...

I am disappointed to see Racchi and Allen leave. Racchi did want to stay but we don't have enough in the budget to offer him a good enough deal to relocate from up North, so there's a chance he might be back if he doesn't get a decent offer elsewhere or some extra room gets made in our budget...

Was brilliant for Aberdeen in the first half of this season. Losing him in January has probably been the difference between being level with Celtic at the time and being 9 points behind now. Think he'll be a very solid keeper for you.

We've hit the jackpot with Nicholson, and he's the biggest asset the club has. 3 years is brilliant news for us, and with all the off-field uncertainty, it is just the appointment we needed. He'll unite the fans and probably add about 500 to the average gate with our £200 season ticket deal.

Every time I go somewhere to watch Hibs, they are absolutely terrible. Have seen them beat Aberdeen and Hearts at home in both cups this season, but on the road I've seen them lose at Hampden in the League Cup final, lose at bottom of the league Alloa, draw 0-0 at second bottom Livingston, lose...

Eastleigh had 111 at Torquay. Torquay at Braintree - Unsegregated (150 est) Torquay at Dover - Unsegregated (150 est) Torquay at FGR - 222 Torquay at Barrow - (100 est) Torquay at Chester - (100 est) Torquay at Welling - Unsegregated (150 est) Torquay at Woking - Unsegregated (175 est) What...

I enjoyed the game at Guiseley yesterday. 303 Torquay fans there to celebrate our survival basically, and the game was pretty low down our priority list. It wasn't until we were 3-0 down that I heard anyone shout something angrilly about the game, and only heard two upset fans all game. It was...

The issue is that for the last four seasons it hasn't been about 'The Old Firm'. Everyone running the game said that Scottish football could not exist without Rangers, but in fact it's been far better than anything that happened before. The other teams have had something to play for and for...
