No chance of Aberdeen coming to their senses, unfortunately.
According to this article in the Press & Journal, Mark McGhee is "seething" at Ian Murray's tackle on Fraser Fyvie that has left the teenager with ankle knack.
Again, the response is easy - watch the incident again. Was it illegal? No. Did Murray win the ball? Emphatically. Did he touch Fyvie? No. How did Fyvie injure himself? By landing heavily - unlucky, but these things happen.
Ian Murray has defended himself in the Evening News, and is entitled to be seething himself for being criticised by an opposition manager for a tough but fair challenge.
As the fall out from the match continues, there is a general feeling in Leith that McGhee set his team up for a physical confrontation, hoping to find Hibs a soft touch. As the plan backfired, he has tried to deflect any potential criticism from the defeat by criticising the referee and Hibs themselves.
Perhaps he should choose his battles more carefully?
