Agree with yellow for the tackle on Roofe. Looked shocking in real time but as others have said the 2nd angle showed it wasn't as bad as it looked initially.

Pen on Itten was a definite pen. 

Only thing to add is that while this game will ultimately go down as a single decision against (for the pen) there were multiple minor decisions which went against us throughout. In the opening half hour in particular every time we went near them the ref blew his whistle for a foul whilst they were allowed to foul us at will. Fuck knows why the ref never gave a foul for the piggyback on Hagi either. 

Said it on the other thread, it was never a red for the tackle on roofe, especially as roofe had over ran it and was lunging in himself, its a straight up 50/50 that the st johnstone boy just ended up timing late, 

If the st johnstone boy goes in standing up to try win the ball, there's a good chance roofe catches him a bad one

They went down early in the game every chance they could, while several crazy tackles on our players were ignored as they would be a free kick near the box. As if the ref couldn't allow a repeat from Barisic.

A clear penalty,  no award given - only the ref can know why.

Wonder what colour of card and media outcry would have been if Alfie had tackled someone like Roofe was tackled.

Nothing contentious today in terms of big decisions.

Seems its okay to time waste (all Livi players) , make numerous fouls even after warning (Holt) and try to wipe out players breaking away from you (Sibbald) without punishment. Just dont react to a decision given against you if you're Morelos or you're getting a petty issued yellow.

Dropped points today, ref little to do with that, but he's still a wee dick.

0 for, 0 against.

Edit. We all saw Morelos booking, whats the difference from this non punished reaction?

Standard Clancy performance. That of a wee prick.

No idea what Itten was booked for.  Blatant foul on Barker ignored (Barisic territory). Their forward blatantly grabs Goldson but not even spoke to. Time wasting allowed as it has been all season.

I'm going to say there was a possible penalty where the defender extended his arms from his body, not in natural position and making body bigger then got hit on elbow. A shitey penalty if given but I want to see it again before I call it as a decision against.

Trial by Sportscene 😁

Agree with all that. Need to see the penalty again. One thing RTV is shite for just now is replays.

Clancy would of been devastated that Morelos wasn't playing, missing out on a chance to send him off again.

Gave them numerous free kicks in decent areas after their players fell over with little to no contact.

After that game at Parkhead I will never view Clancy as an impartial official ever again. I was thinking the other day how many penalties he had awarded from a corner kick before that game and I’m pretty sure he has never gave another one since. Just one of many ‘crooked’ decisions he made that day. I have every expectation that he will have at least one of the derby games this year and absolutely no confidence he will remain impartial...

[British_Empire 6,955]

Clancy was trying his best today the cunt. 2/3 times in the first half blatant fouls on us not given then similar ones to Kilmarnock given right away.

Stopped paying attention to him after we scored because he couldn't impact it as much as he could have done at 0-0 pulling back niggles and then giving us nothing in return.

Guys a wee fenian creep.

It was a penaltyand the right decusion.  There was at least a dozen other decisions,  including an almost identical one on Aribo, that he got wrong and can't be put down to incompetence. 

He's corrupt, and he'll be the go to  guy for OF games.

Can't believe itten got booked for that

Just incompetence though.

Nothing like carding a physical player for nothing and potentially stifling their game.

Just catching up with the thread but we could have easily had a penalty in that game the livi defenders handball from a shot that bounced and hit him. 

There's no way that was a natural angle and in any case the rules were changed to any contact with the hand is a foul.

I'm not sure that is the rule tbh.

I'm fairly certain it was changed to that during the break for lockdown I've been wrong before but not often.

I think the ricochet things means its not an automatic if it contacts the arm. This is a quick Google article from the English Premier League, it summarises the IFAB ruling.

What's new in 2019/20?

The International Football Association Board (IFAB) has updated the Laws of the Game for the 2019/20 season.

Handballs 

Any goal scored or created with the use of the hand or arm will be disallowed this season even if it is accidental. 

The handball rule now has extra clarity because it does not consider intent by a player. 

Another big change is to do with the position of a player's hand/arm.

If the ball hits a player who has made their body "unnaturally bigger" then a foul will be awarded.

IFAB says that having the hand/arm above shoulder height is rarely a "natural" position and a player is "taking a risk" by having the hand/arm in that position, including when sliding. 

It is, however, considered natural for a player to put their arm between their body and the ground for support when falling, so long as the arm is not extended to make the body bigger.

Deflections 

Premier League players will be allowed extra leeway when it comes to ricocheted handballs.  

It is often impossible to avoid contact with the ball if it has deflected off the body of an opponent, team-mate, or even another part of the own player. 

So a handball will not be awarded if the ball touches a player’s hand/arm directly from their own head/body/foot or the head/body/foot of another player who is close/nearby

Edit. The rule may have been superceded but I've seen it since the restart where it hits the arm at the side of the body and not given as the arm is close to body not extended out.

Cedric Itten foul against and booked for being kicked. Clancy is a cheating taig cunt.
