00:30Good evening, sports scene is on the road yet again
00:42and rather conveniently for me, it's just five minutes from my house
00:45Falkirk against Livingstone coming up later on
00:48but first, League Cup finalist St Mirren take on Heberian here
00:51and officially, Scotland's best town
00:53St Mirren, League Cup finalists
00:57a superb semi-final hounding of Motherwell a week ago
01:01has set up a fourth tilt at that trophy for the 2013 winners
01:06as they welcome Heberian to Paisley
01:08it set up a momentous day for this club
01:12but it also returned them to winning ways after a poor run
01:15while it doesn't really feel like Hibbs have properly got going yet
01:19two wins in their last ten
01:21as they approach the anniversary of their 24-25 renaissance
01:25for the hosts, keeper Shamal George was a doubt
01:29but he's made it
01:30King comes in for the suspended Gogich
01:32who was immense last weekend
01:33and Donnelly replaces O'Hara
01:36who has a foot problem
01:37the power of Bowie is called upon by David Gray
01:41as he replaces record signing Cleeje
01:43the Cadden Brothers come in to the side
01:45with Chaiwa and Obita among the subs for the visitors
01:49but as is the case across all matches this weekend
01:55both sets of players, the supporters and the staff
01:58will commemorate those who have lost their lives in conflict
02:02fired in by Phillips
02:17and draws the game's first corner
02:20off to Ushiri
02:21to deliberate
02:22Ushiri had to act
02:24Samirn trying to get something on this
02:34and they've got the opening
02:35go through Fraser
02:36he doesn't score many
02:38but Marcus Fraser
02:40was on hand with the simplest of finishes
02:44and Saints lead early in the piece
02:47we saw a great delivery up the other end
02:49just a moment ago
02:50with Marcus Fraser
02:52because of the quality of the cross
02:53just had to divert it home
02:55but David Gray will be furious with that
02:58there's a little check going on here
03:01with the video assistant
03:02who is Andrew Dallas
03:03so it's not setting stone yet
03:07was Fraser just off
03:08he might well have been you know
03:10the rate was on
03:13for Marcus Fraser
03:14this is going to be ruled out for offside
03:18Fraser denied
03:21St Mirren denied
03:23see the line drawn there
03:25Fraser just ahead of Hanley
03:27certainly nowhere near the rut
03:31he was in 12 months ago
03:32David Gray
03:33look at the league table as well
03:34they were rock bottom
03:35this time last year
03:37they are in a much better place
03:39all over
03:39the shop really
03:41he'll be casting envious glances
03:44across Edinburgh
03:45as Mulligan rifles it home
03:48fantastic take
03:51and the visitors have the lead
03:54a tour ball out by Shamal George
04:00McGrath is onto it immediately
04:03and Mulligan
04:05with a fantastic finish
04:07that is a third goal in Hibernian colours
04:11for the former Dundee man
04:13Hibbs lively
04:15to the mistake
04:17and Hibbs have the lead in Renfisher
04:20Jadon Richardson with the up and under
04:35it's Bacchus who attacks it
04:37and Phillips
04:39and Hibbs keep it out
04:40flag's gone up anyway
04:44there's an offside in there
04:46according to the officials
04:48and Keanu Bacchus
04:49and the initial header
04:50which he'll be annoyed
04:52he's not converted
04:53doesn't look offside
04:55to be fair
04:55there was an appeal
04:56for a penalty
04:57for the challenge
04:58on Phillips by Busceery
04:59and the look says it all
05:02from the manager
05:04Williams have been involved
05:07in some dramatic games
05:08this season
05:09you think of that
05:09Edinburgh Derby
05:10at Tynecastle
05:11they felt aggrieved to have lost
05:12they're under pressure here
05:14it's Phillips
05:15with the effort
05:16Salinger
05:16stands his ground
05:19St Mirren are
05:20up in the ante
05:21as we get ever closer
05:23to half time
05:24Declan John across
05:31Richardson was there
05:35Bacchus
05:36Mandron goes down
05:38St Mirren
05:40fans behind the goal
05:42with a wild appeal
05:43for a penalty
05:43dummy from Phillips
05:48it's in Lundaloo
05:50he's at it again
05:53Tannen Lundaloo
05:55levels
05:56inside the opening minute
05:59of the second half
06:00what a start
06:03to the second half
06:04the dummy from Phillips
06:05is excellent
06:06Salinger's rooted
06:07fourth goal
06:08from Lundaloo
06:09is he onside though
06:10is he onside
06:15this one looks
06:16tighter than the first one
06:17here we go again
06:22say the St Mirren supporters
06:24are they about to have
06:27a second goal ruled out
06:28for offside
06:29they are you know
06:30Hibbs have got away
06:31with it again
06:32Mickey Cadden
06:43it's come all the way
06:48through to Chris Cadden
06:49Hibbs double their lead
06:51then twice in the game
06:54St Mirren score
06:55and have it ruled out
06:58Hibbs go up the other end
06:59to get one of their own
07:00and it's the Caddens
07:02combining
07:02Nicky's ball
07:04and eventually
07:05found its way
07:06through to Chris
07:07who latches home
07:09his second of the season
07:10little deflection
07:12as well
07:12which takes
07:13Shamal George
07:14out of the equation
07:152-0 Hibbs
07:17Nick Menemann
07:28in Lundaloo
07:32for Mandron
07:34good save
07:36Salinger
07:37back in
07:39by Declan John
07:40and the goalkeeper
07:41holds on
07:42and it opened up
07:43beautifully
07:44for Mika Mandron
07:45here
07:45excellent from
07:46Lundaloo again
07:47what a battle
07:48he's had with
07:49Bashiri
07:49Mulligan
07:53back across
07:56by
07:57Nicky Cadden
07:59gets another corner
08:01Nicky Cadden's ball
08:10drops to Campbell
08:13back to Chaiwa
08:14and that will finish it
08:17it just hasn't been
08:24St Mirren's evening
08:25it's very much
08:28been Hibbs
08:28Chaiwa hit it
08:30him bouncing off
08:33at least one
08:35St Mirren player
08:36and George could do
08:37nothing about it
08:38might well have been
08:46Marcus Fraser
08:46he thought he gave
08:47Simmer in the lead
08:48early in the piece
08:49Mulligan gets that back
08:59to get even better
09:01to get even better
09:01for Hibbs here
09:01Obita
09:03it's a good save
09:04with the foot there
09:05of Simmer George
09:06fabulous night for David
09:26great
09:27great
09:27a comfortable victory
09:29in the end for Hibbs
09:31Josh Mulligan
09:33with the opener
09:34after Marcus Fraser
09:36and a goal ruled out
09:37for offside
09:37St Mirren thought
09:41they'd leveled
09:42just after
09:43half time
09:43Lundaloo's effort
09:46again
09:46an offside
09:47was called
09:48after the bar check
09:50Chris Cadden
09:50made it 2-0
09:51not too long after
09:52before
09:55Miguel Chaiwa
09:56struck
09:58with the second
10:00Hibbs goal
10:01of the season
10:01via a big deflection
10:04off the underside
10:05of the bar
10:05and that
10:07means that Hibbs
10:10move on to the
10:1018 point mark
10:12and they
10:14sit there
10:15they will hope
10:15to remain there
10:16during the
10:19international break
10:20he finishes in
10:21Paisley
10:22St Mirren 0
10:23Hiberny in 3
10:25delighted for the players
10:28I think we feel
10:28we deserve that
10:29the really difficult
10:31players to come
10:31history tells you
10:33that even with us
10:34head to heads
10:34against St Mirren
10:35that's the last
10:37big pains
10:37something like that
10:38so nearly tough
10:39players to come
10:40but to go and win
10:413-0
10:41clean sheet
10:42away from home
10:42where you have to
10:43really stand up
10:44and defend your box
10:45and I thought
10:45post on that
10:45was there
10:46I don't know
10:46if this is true
10:47or not
10:47but I've been told
10:48by the guys
10:49that there was
10:49two sets of lines
10:50drawn
10:50one was offside
10:51and one was offside
10:52so I'm not sure
10:53how you explain that
10:54but obviously
10:56a really important
10:57time to score
10:58and we're very good
10:59in the counter
10:59it's actually
11:00Hibbs would have
11:00came out
11:00and then the second
11:03one again
11:03we haven't got
11:04the technology
11:05to look back at
11:06but ultimately
11:07we didn't control
11:08what we could control
11:09and that was
11:09our performance levels
11:10as I say
11:11there were three players
11:12I thought were
11:12at the top of their game
11:13and other players
11:15that weren't
11:15but we had chances
11:16we didn't take them
11:17and a keeper makes
11:18two great saves
11:19Keanu misses from
11:20three yards out
11:21so there's things
11:22we can control
11:23we didn't do well
11:24enough tonight
11:24so ultimately
11:25I believe Hibbs
11:26deserve to win
11:26well St Mirren
11:27come crashing
11:28back down to
11:29us
11:29after their
11:30League Cup win
11:30last weekend
11:31and in truth
11:32Neil
11:32the performance
11:33was poor tonight
11:34from St Mirren
11:35but Hibbs
11:35excellent
11:36yeah
11:37St Mirren weren't
11:37great
11:38but I thought
11:40Hibbs were
11:40a brilliant watch
11:41at times
11:42at one point
11:44the Hibbs fans
11:45were saying
11:46it was too easy
11:47and I have to agree
11:48that Hibbs
11:49completely dominated
11:50the game for me
11:51particularly that
11:51middle area
11:52of the pitch
11:53and in the end
11:54comfortable winners
11:55they were
11:56and Marcus
11:57Fraser thought
11:57he'd got St Mirren
11:58off to the perfect
11:59start early on
12:00with the
12:00well-worked corner
12:01yeah
12:01such a fractional
12:04decision
12:04but
12:05VAR intervening
12:06and ruling
12:07that he was offside
12:08yeah VAR got involved
12:09there's a wee bit
12:10of kind of
12:12dividey
12:13in terms of
12:13where the
12:14lines were
12:15going to be moved
12:16whether they were
12:17drawing in
12:18a perfect line
12:19or not
12:20but it was such
12:20a tight decision
12:21it's probably
12:22one of the
12:22I got asked
12:22what kind of
12:23change I might make
12:24to the game today
12:25and that would be
12:26one of them
12:26whether it would be
12:27like a clear daylight
12:28between the attacker
12:29and defence
12:29to get more goals
12:30into the game
12:31because
12:31well you've seen
12:32so many of these
12:32decisions be
12:33like a fingernail
12:35or a
12:35you know
12:35just
12:36an inch
12:37and the idea
12:37whether the camera
12:38is right on line
12:39or whether they're
12:40guessing
12:40but you've got to
12:41trust the technology
12:42I suppose
12:42in VR
12:43I've ruled it out
12:44but you're saying
12:45it was a well worked
12:46goal from St Mirren
12:47but it's such a poor
12:48set up as well
12:49from St Mirren
12:49I think they were
12:50caught between
12:50maybe having an extra
12:53marker
12:53in the penalty area
12:55because St Mirren
12:56are a side
12:57that really do
12:58work set pieces well
12:59they work blocks
13:00they've got good movement
13:01and Marcus Fraser
13:02is absolutely
13:04inches
13:05if that
13:05offside
13:06just leaning ahead
13:07so it was a sore one
13:09for them
13:09it was
13:10Josh Mulligan
13:11had an excellent
13:11game
13:11tonight
13:12he got
13:13Hib's first
13:13goal
13:14a bit of a mix
13:15up from
13:15St Mirren
13:15at the back
13:16I don't think
13:17Shamal George's
13:17pass was for
13:19King
13:19I think he's
13:19trying to get it
13:19out to Richardson
13:20King goes to
13:21take a touch
13:22and then
13:22you've got to say
13:23from then on in
13:23it's brilliant
13:24from Hib's
13:24it's not a great
13:25ball
13:25it's kind of
13:25clipped
13:25so it's
13:26sort of
13:26in between
13:27you can see
13:27why King
13:28maybe tries
13:28to take it
13:29under control
13:29but
13:30full marks
13:31to McGrath
13:31he's on it
13:32in a second
13:33he takes a really
13:34good second
13:35touch
13:35and then
13:36he's crossed
13:37into the box
13:37his pick out
13:38was brilliant
13:38I wondered
13:39where Liam
13:39Donnell
13:40could have
13:40maybe have
13:41stuck his leg
13:41out and adjusted
13:42but it just
13:42goes behind
13:43and Mulligan
13:44who I thought
13:44was excellent
13:45tonight
13:45really really
13:46powerful
13:46in the middle
13:47of the pitch
13:47with a lovely
13:48finish
13:49a nice
13:49controlled
13:50finish
13:50he's coming
13:50on
13:51he tries
13:51to just
13:52make sure
13:52he gets
13:52good contact
13:53steers it
13:54past the
13:54Shamal George
13:55and it was
13:55a brilliant
13:55finish
13:56but as I
13:56said
13:57it was just
13:57an indication
13:59of that
13:59middle area
14:00of the pitch
14:01where Hib's
14:01got it right
14:01you definitely
14:02felt they dominated
14:02in there
14:05I was so
14:06impressed
14:07but the way
14:08St Myrne
14:08conducted
14:09themselves
14:09through the
14:10middle of
14:10the pitch
14:10tonight
14:10you could
14:11understand
14:11why Hib's
14:14got so much
14:14joy
14:15because of
14:16Hib's
14:16playing a
14:16back three
14:17either
14:18Killian Phillips
14:19was jumping
14:19or Bacchus
14:21on the other
14:21side
14:21and when
14:22they were
14:22jumping
14:22to the
14:23wide
14:23areas
14:23Hib's
14:25were then
14:25getting the
14:25control
14:26because
14:26they had
14:26a man
14:26extra
14:27with
14:27McGrath
14:27in there
14:28Balassa
14:28and Mulligan
14:29and they
14:29totally
14:30dominated
14:30for me
14:31yeah
14:31Chris Cardden
14:32he got
14:32the second
14:33goal
14:33it was pretty
14:33much game
14:34over at
14:34this point
14:35from St Myrne's
14:36point of view
14:36again
14:37decent finish
14:38but takes a
14:39deflection
14:39doesn't it
14:40yeah it takes
14:41a big nick
14:41off of John
14:42but again
14:44Cardden bombing
14:44up on the
14:45right hand side
14:45but once more
14:46it came from
14:47that middle area
14:47Balassa getting
14:48the head up
14:49switching play
14:50and when the
14:50ball was put
14:51into the box
14:51I think it was
14:52a suggestion
14:52offside as well
14:53with Kieran
14:54Bowie and Boyle
14:55in there
14:55little touch
14:56but I mean
14:58from my side
14:58from my point of
15:00view it was
15:00onside
15:01and it's
15:01Chris Cardden
15:02who was
15:02excellent
15:02again
15:03one side
15:04Nicky on
15:04the other
15:05they were
15:06superb
15:06and it takes
15:07a nick
15:07but I'm
15:08pretty sure
15:09it was going
15:09to find
15:09the back
15:09of the net
15:09anyway
15:10it was a
15:10nice angled
15:11shot back
15:11across the
15:12keeper
15:12Hibs now
15:12won three
15:13of their
15:13last five
15:14games
15:14they went
15:14through a
15:14period
15:14earlier
15:15in the
15:15season
15:15when they
15:15were drawn
15:16a lot
15:17of games
15:17and I think
15:17that was
15:17in Fury
15:18and David
15:18Grae
15:19but they're
15:19starting to
15:19pick up
15:20now
15:20in a really
15:21good position
15:21in the
15:22league
15:22you expect
15:23them to
15:23kick on
15:24now
15:24and find
15:24last season's
15:25form
15:25yeah
15:26well they're
15:27back winning
15:27games again
15:28I just think
15:29they're a really
15:29good side
15:30they've got
15:30a brilliant
15:31make-up
15:32this structured
15:35way of playing
15:35the three
15:36at the back
15:36I do think
15:37they're a much
15:37better side
15:38when Josh
15:39Mulligan's
15:39in the middle
15:39of the pitch
15:40at times
15:40when Chris
15:41Carden's
15:41out
15:41they lose
15:42his power
15:43by moving
15:43him to
15:44right wing
15:44back
15:44and I know
15:44he can play
15:45there
15:45he's been
15:46superb there
15:47for Dundee
15:47and then
15:47coming in
15:48and he's
15:48done a job
15:49for house
15:49but I think
15:49they're a
15:50better balance
15:51through the
15:52middle of the
15:52park
15:52when he's
15:53in there
15:53so yeah
15:54back winning
15:54games
15:55today was
15:56so comfortable
15:56it could have
15:57been more
15:57Shamal George
15:58had a number
15:59of good saves
15:59towards the end
16:00they've got such
16:01strength and depth
16:01as well
16:02from St. Mernan's
16:03point of view
16:03it's one point
16:04from 15
16:05in the league
16:06they're not
16:07finding that
16:07form that we've
16:09seen them have
16:10in the league
16:10certainly over the
16:11last three seasons
16:12this is a pretty
16:13poor spell for them
16:14isn't it
16:15yeah it'll be a
16:16concern for Stevie
16:16of course the
16:18elation of getting
16:19to the final
16:19you said there
16:20maybe that took
16:20a wee bit out of them
16:21it can emotionally
16:22as well
16:22and they looked
16:23unusually subdued
16:25today
16:25but I think that
16:27was down to
16:27how well Hubs
16:28played and as I
16:29said domination
16:30through the middle
16:30of the pitch
16:31but they need to
16:32start winning games
16:33I don't think
16:33they've been too
16:34upset just now
16:35it's only one
16:35round the game's
16:36gone yeah
16:37you'll get to
16:38halfway stage
16:38in the season
16:39then you kind of
16:39start to make up
16:40your mind
16:40where you're going
16:40to be
16:41towards the end
16:42but yeah
16:43they need to
16:43start getting
16:44back to winning
16:44games of football
16:45again
16:45they do that
16:46okay
16:47Falkirk take
16:47on Livingston
16:48now who are
16:48looking for a
16:49first win
16:49in 10 games
16:50a tale of
16:52two promoted
16:53sides
16:54Falkirk
16:54flying high
16:55Livingston
16:56loitering low
16:57after the first
16:58round of
16:58fixtures
16:59and of course
17:02a mark of
17:03remembrance
17:03this afternoon
17:04as well
17:04just two changes
17:11for Falkirk
17:11Brian Gray
17:12makes his first
17:12start since the
17:13opening day
17:14of the season
17:14the other change
17:15Dylan Tate
17:16coming in
17:16into the midfield
17:17replacing Henry
17:18Cartwright
17:18one change
17:20one change for
17:20Livingston
17:21but a slight
17:21change of shape
17:22as well
17:22Tetiecki comes in
17:24for Scott Pittman
17:24making his first
17:25start since mid-September
17:27Stevie May
17:31Stevie May curls to the back
17:32post
17:32sort of dealt with
17:35and then Falkirk
17:37will come on the
17:38counter-attack
17:39there's a mix-up
17:40there
17:40Calvin Miller
17:40could play
17:41Wilson through the
17:42middle
17:42he takes a little
17:44while
17:44but it does come to
17:45Wilson
17:45and then it's blocked
17:47behind for a corner
17:48from one end
17:50to the other
17:50there's a decent
17:52chance for
17:53Wilson to go
17:55clear through there
17:56just a little delay
17:57just ends up
17:58being a corner
17:59in the end
17:59could Falkirk
18:00have created
18:01something
18:01a little more
18:03from that perhaps
18:04either way
18:06Miller
18:06with the corner
18:07shout for hand
18:09ball
18:10Stevie May
18:11is driven back in
18:12that does strike
18:16the elbow
18:16of Stevie May
18:17the referee
18:20Grant Irvin
18:21is going to go
18:23across to the
18:23monitor
18:23he's having a
18:26look at this
18:26now
18:26what will he
18:30decide
18:30it's a penalty
18:31Falkirk
18:33gifted the
18:34opportunity
18:35to go ahead
18:36and it's Stevie
18:38May
18:38who concedes
18:40it
18:40defending
18:41in his own
18:41box
18:42the Livingston
18:42forward
18:43he just
18:44elbows that
18:44ball away
18:45before it
18:46comes into
18:47the middle
18:47so it will be
18:5137 year old
18:53Brian Graham
18:53from 12 yards
18:55and he leathers
18:57it home
18:58fantastic penalty
19:00from the
19:01veteran striker
19:02and it puts
19:03Falkirk
19:04into the lead
19:04he didn't need
19:07ask him
19:08twice absolutely
19:09blasted that
19:10nothing
19:11Jérôme Pryor
19:12could do
19:13superb penalty
19:15from Brian Graham
19:16I think he enjoyed it
19:21Livingston looking for a response
19:30and it's Lewis Smith
19:33desperate to get onto that
19:35left foot
19:35and he's kept the ball
19:36plays it back to
19:39Brené
19:39takes his time
19:42takes his time
19:42before trying to
19:43poke through
19:43Falkirk
19:45taking their time
19:46getting rid of this
19:47in fact it just comes to
19:49Mozilla on the edge of the box
19:50tees himself up
19:52and drives it just wide
19:53decent opportunity
19:56for Livingston
19:57to try and go level
19:58he's just dragged that
20:00a few inches wide
20:01Bienghi
20:05slipping it through
20:07to Shinny
20:08Montano makes the run
20:11good movement
20:12from the left back
20:13he goes down
20:14big appeal
20:16from Montano
20:16anyway
20:17did he just get the ball
20:19stuck under his feet
20:20there
20:20Falkirk
20:22coming forward
20:23Miller
20:25he's got Williams
20:27on the overlap
20:27he drills for goal
20:29Pryor saves
20:30with his foot
20:30Falkirk
20:32have been
20:33so quick
20:34on the counter attack
20:35they're up into the
20:36Livingston box again
20:37Pryor has the answers
20:39this time
20:39Smith trying to chase
20:43down and he gets there
20:44ahead of Liam Henderson
20:45options in the middle
20:47for Smith
20:48back onto the left
20:49but cuts it across
20:50and Scott Bain
20:51claws it away
20:52a couple of options
20:54in the middle
20:55Andrew Shinny
20:56was one of them
20:57he went down
20:58Wilson cuts it back
21:03for Williams
21:04with two
21:05blue knees
21:05being the brightest
21:08sparks for Falkirk
21:09today
21:09here's another
21:11Philip Lyssa
21:12he's got his chance
21:14at left back
21:15he cuts on to the right
21:16it's not the best shot
21:17it came to Graham
21:18and he could only
21:20turn it wide
21:21Calvin Miller
21:22was in there
21:23as well
21:23but I think it was
21:23Brian Graham
21:24almost in for a second
21:25got that all wrong
21:28and Tanyo
21:32powering forward
21:35from left back
21:35slips it into
21:37Bakila
21:38he's somehow
21:39squeezed through
21:40a gap
21:40Bakila
21:41it's just over the bar
21:42had to do it
21:44all himself
21:45but he couldn't
21:46find the finish
21:47he's had a good impact
21:49since signing in the
21:50summer
21:50Jeremy Bakila
21:51he's somehow
21:54eeked out a chance
21:56there
21:56but couldn't find
21:58the finish
21:59watch forward
22:02for Montano
22:03lovely touch
22:04shout for Ham
22:05ball
22:05play goes on
22:08Shinny picks up
22:10Yenge
22:11curling in
22:13there's the header
22:13straight at
22:14Scott Bain
22:15Robbie Muirhead
22:16with it
22:17but Bain
22:19called up to
22:20the Scotland
22:21squad again
22:21he was never
22:23really too
22:24troubled by this
22:25one
22:25Finnlissen
22:31it's in the wild
22:32Andy Winter
22:35taking on Lyssa
22:37that's a heavy challenge
22:40from Philip Lyssa
22:41and that will be a booking
22:42and Irvin
22:44straight to his pocket
22:45and a chance for Livingston
22:48to try and swing in
22:49a late set piece
22:51they've gotten into good areas
22:54without creating too many clear-cut chances
22:57what can Graham Kerry do
22:59he curls to the back post
23:01there's the header from Wilson
23:02and Livingston are level
23:05for the second week in a row
23:09they strike late on
23:11and it's Danny Wilson
23:13and it's Danny Wilson
23:13the captain
23:15who comes up with the goods
23:17when it matters
23:18a pinpoint header
23:21at the back post
23:22and Livingston
23:23claw Falkirk back
23:25right at the death
23:26that could be a huge goal
23:28for the visitors
23:29late chance for Falkirk
23:33to loft it
23:34into the middle
23:35and it's headed away
23:37and there is
23:39the full-time whistle
23:40well Falkirk
23:42never got the better
23:43of Livingston last season
23:44despite
23:45pipping them
23:46to the championship crown
23:47and yet again
23:49John McLean
23:50can't get one over
23:50David Martindale
23:51it finishes 1-1
23:53I don't think
23:55it's a penalty
23:56I really don't think
23:57it's a penalty
23:57but maybe my angle's wrong
23:59I don't know
23:59but Stevie says too
24:00the run over
24:01they face him
24:02so he can't see
24:03the ball at that point
24:05then there's a shout
24:06for us
24:07in Falkirk's box
24:08Keelan Adams on
24:09Andrew Shinney
24:10you can see the motion
24:11he's armed
24:12Keelan actually
24:13says something
24:15as he's done it
24:15because he thinks
24:16he's made a mistake
24:17and then we get told
24:18Andrew was nowhere
24:19near the ball
24:20I'm thinking
24:21what's that
24:22go to do with anything
24:23if it's in the box
24:24surely that's a pen
24:25so
24:25I feel like we're
24:27talking about
24:27VAR far too much
24:28or I'm talking about
24:29VAR far too much
24:30so maybe it's me
24:31it needs to shut up
24:31we've come away
24:32with only one point
24:33instead of the three
24:34maybe it should have been
24:36it's been more superior
24:38in the first half
24:39probably should have been
24:40further ahead
24:40in the first half
24:41but nothing in the game
24:43whatsoever
24:43I think a draw is a fair result
24:45yeah
24:47one point
24:49it's an important point
24:50just got to keep
24:51putting points on the board
24:52so a share of the spoils
24:54for the two promoted
24:55sides
24:56Neil
24:56Falkirk the better team
24:57first half
24:58I think Livingston
24:59again did well
25:00to fight back into the game
25:01and get a valuable point
25:03becoming a wee bit of habit
25:04for Livingston
25:05finishing strong in games
25:06but yeah
25:07I think it was probably
25:07an uneven result
25:08when you look at the
25:10stats of the game
25:11I don't think anyone
25:12can argue
25:12that Livingston
25:13didn't deserve something
25:14from it
25:14but it was two
25:15the championship
25:17sides from last season
25:18going toe to toe
25:19they're having differing
25:20form coming up
25:21Falkirk have been
25:22looking really comfortable
25:23Livingston
25:24really struggling
25:26I mean
25:26what is it
25:27no winning 10 games
25:28now
25:29but
25:29there have been
25:31signs and performances
25:32that they're capable
25:33of winning games
25:34they just need to get
25:34that first one out
25:35they may don't they
25:36yeah they need to get
25:36the first one
25:37the good thing is
25:39they're not detached yet
25:40no they're not
25:40it's a strange league
25:42when you look at it
25:43I mean how well
25:43Falkirk are doing
25:44right up into the top
25:46half of the table
25:47exceptional
25:48they've come up
25:49from the championship
25:50and they've not changed
25:51how they want to play
25:53there are a lot of players
25:54there that are feeling
25:54their way out
25:55within the premiership
25:56their first time
25:57in doing that
25:58so full marks
25:59to John McGlynn
26:00on their side
26:00that they're coming
26:01with quite cavalier
26:02how they play
26:02they've not changed
26:03in how they want
26:05to approach the games
26:06and maybe that's why
26:07the results are coming
26:08for them
26:08David Martindale
26:09on the other hand
26:10with Livingston
26:10again similar
26:11they've got to feel
26:12their way out
26:12it's the first run
26:13of games now
26:13so I don't think
26:14he'll be too upset
26:15as you said there
26:16the bottom of the table
26:16is quite tight
26:17let's take a look
26:18at the first goal
26:19Stevie May
26:19what's he doing
26:20I've no idea
26:21when you
26:22I mean
26:23it's
26:23David after the game
26:25was saying
26:25it's a bit harsh
26:26I don't think it is
26:27there was a suggestion
26:29that maybe Stevie May
26:29has just been caught out
26:30because of the flight
26:31of the ball
26:31Calvin Miller
26:32whips it in
26:33I think his elbow
26:34is already gone
26:35it's already away
26:35from the body
26:36the referee
26:37didn't see it
26:38I actually think
26:38the referee
26:39probably should see that
26:40because it's in a close area
26:42where the first contact
26:43another good spot
26:43from the VAR
26:44yeah another good spot
26:45from the VAR
26:46and I think when they're
26:46giving that decision
26:47I think it is a correct one
26:49and big Brian Graham
26:50I was listening
26:51maybe he hasn't been
26:52a wonderful spot
26:54kick taker
26:55in the past
26:56in terms of his ratio
26:57but I couldn't
26:58back that up
26:59or deny it
27:00but I really think
27:03it was a brilliant penalty
27:03well struck
27:04into the middle
27:05of the net
27:06into the side net
27:07and it was brilliant
27:08Libby left it late
27:09yet again
27:09a fabulous delivery
27:10from Graham Carey
27:12and Danny Wilson
27:12with the header
27:13a typically brilliant
27:14delivery from Carey
27:16with that wonderful
27:16left foot
27:17and swinger
27:17Falkett will be
27:18kicking themselves
27:19so late into the game
27:20they've got decent height
27:21but when you put a ball
27:22in with that quality
27:23you've just got to hope
27:24that somebody's going to
27:25go and get on the end
27:25of it
27:26and big Danny Wilson
27:26made it beautiful
27:27I mean it's a really
27:28good header as well
27:29Scott Bain doesn't move
27:30just plants it down low
27:32and yeah I think it was
27:33more than Livingston
27:34were looking for
27:36towards the end
27:36yeah I think it is
27:38a fair result
27:39and they end up
27:39aye
27:39okay let's have a
27:41look at the table
27:41only the two games
27:43today
27:44Hibs win
