Was at this game. Ref turned it into a total farce. Always remember goughie pleading with the ref not to send the fourth off.

who was the hearts captain that day, because Richard Gough seemed to be doing his job.

the reason gough was pleading to the ref is because there was a good chance that hearts may have got a 5th player sent off and in that instance the ref abandons the game and we are awarded a 3-0 win, seeing as we were winning 4-0 with the chance of scoring more gough didnt want it abandoned (tu)

Gough clearly didn't want to see another sent off because there was no point - another red wouldn't change anything.

it would have, the lwas of the game state that a team cannot continue playing with less than 7 players, hearst were down to 7 and it would have been abandonded if another red card came about (tu)

I wasn't debating that mate, was just saying Gough wanted to keep it as a contest (tu).

This ...people wre going mad in the stands as we didn't seem to want to score and were behind the filth in goal difference in the closest of league races

yeah I was there it was surreal. hearts only had 6 outfield players and actually broke 5 on 4 such was our lack of effort.

while the game would indeed have been abandoned there was no rule as to what would have happened if it was. a replay or us getting the 4 nil were all possibilities.

the 3 nil thing is a European thing and was drempt up to give stutgart another shot at Leeds in 1992 before we played them.
