We can moan all we want about cheating officials - in the end though the usual suspects plus lack of a striker who actually know how to score has cost us that game. Games in hand can take us back to two points but every fucking time we have a chance to strangle these bastards we fuck it up. 

Their man of the match was the referee.  Shocking today. 
 
Dessers showed us all truly that we need better up front.    Shocking game all round. 

The only ones who turned up for us today were Yilmaz and Sterling - how bad is that?

Could do with footage to judge it. Stills can be deceiving.

Can anyone remember this incident? The handball by McGregor.
 

I would love it (talking like Kevin Keegan), if Clement rams those words right down his gullet by the end of the season. Shocking lack of respect there. 

They did get the VAR audio.
Nobody mentioned offside until the shitstorm was lashing the VAR office windows and they decided they’d better find a straw to clutch.
Classic rewriting of events.

"Natural position"
 

Mate, I get that you're pissed off at this team for losing another big game but it's decisions like that which turn games. If we'd got a pen and scored it then that would've completely changed the game.

What we should be doing is outright saying we want foreign refs for old firm games as the amount of pressure exerted on our domestic officials by the opposition makes it impossible for them to referee these games to the correct standard
More of a call out of their treatment of the officials than the incompetence of the officials themselves.
Something also needs made of the amount of times a second ball found its way onto the pitch today when we were in possession 
We should also be highlighting the refs shyness in booking players such as Bernardo and Johnston who shouldn’t have seen the game out without seeing red when 1 foul by a Rangers player, Sterlings for example is a near certain booking 

I still like the big man but unfortunately he made two mistakes, first his touch was shocking to lose control of the ball then the brain fart that followed. I reckon he already knows this.

You need to watch it.....he realises he shouldn't of said it n tries to back track... But the headlines have been written hopefully it back fires bigtime

That’s exactly what happened.
Panic set in, frantic searching and then they threw this spurious offside nonsense in desperation.
Lot of mileage in this yet.

All I'll say is this - Sky Comms had access to the VAR audio over their headsets at the time, and no one fucking knew anything about an offside until after HT.
Certainly wasn't discussed as far as the commentary team were aware.

Good. About time we start putting pressure on that lot. They can do it in England so they can do it here.

Clement rightly calling out the penalty decision not by saying of course directly that we were cheated but he was ‘curious’ why it wasn’t given. Then half an hour later Collum reviews it to say it was offside. The whole thing stinks!!

Surprisingly not that downbeat, definitely doesn’t feel the same as the defeats under Gio and Beale - think the only real difference was the finishing and general play upfront of each team, as well as some horrendous officiating.
Feels like when we lost 2-1 in 2019 under Gerrard, or when they lost 1-0 in Postecoglou’s first OF. Despite the result you get a sense that the tide is turning.

This is what all their pressure on the refereeing before the game results in. Virtually every single time we get cheated - there can be no other way of looking at it. 

They found the off side after the fact. The elbow on Sima was another second yellow. There’s cheating going on.

The whole defence except Yilmaz were an embarrassment today. 

Then they found the off side but again a second yellow with the elbow to sima 

Our captain was absolute CRAP.
Couldn't pass water.
Great goal and 45 misplaced crosses/passes.

Keep seeing Ridvan pelters...out the back 4 I thought he done the best tbh, Tav was a bombscare first half and the 2 CBs had their usual mistakes
