theiconicman 3,013 Posted September 4, 2023 Share Posted September 4, 2023 I think the point we've established is that referees can decide for themselves whether its a foul or not - each ref will decide on their own as there is no specific rule covering that case. What we know about the filth and refs in this country is patently clear, if they want windows they'll make sure nothing is decided that can be said to go against them.

I see even Andy Walker is in the news claiming it was never a foul and terrible use of VAR to get involved in a decision that is very subjective rather than "clear and obvious". Anyone who does think it's a foul has lost sight of the fact that football is still a contact sport. The reason it's still a contact sport is exactly because of situations like the Dessers one, sometimes 2 players will try to run into the same space in pursuit of the ball. Dessers simply got his foot there first. kelvd1873, dummiesoot, SK Rfc and 2 others 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, how did he miss all the fouls from their jap player?

Dessers simply got his foot there first. The Cantwell penalty versus Servette is one where he nipped his leg in front of the defender, got kicked by a player continuing his attempt to play the ball, didnt touch the ball and we got the penalty. I don't think any of us argued or thought it wasn't a penalty. It seems us and refs do have ambiguity in terms of the rules and this apparent guidance. The rule I've seen is about impeding with contact and clearly to me infers it's contact by the person making the challenge, not them being kicked. I'm reading here of guidance and am happy to consider it as something all refs are working with but if we can't find evidence of what it then how are we meant to assess incidents against rules/guidance which surely is objectively what we want to do. Notwithstanding how fucking absurd that you can apparently commit a foul by being kicked. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

By and large for me it depends if the defender / attacker knew what they were doing and played for it. Hate the simulation when defender is booked for it, but sometimes defender deserves it if they knew exactly what they were doing. Depends on the scenario.

Helicopter Sundae 6,197 Posted September 7, 2023 Share Posted September 7, 2023 Just watched the incident again on the "highlights" and it looks even more fucked up than before. Seriously that VAR and ref must be fucking embarrassed. They should both quit the game. Simple as that. In a proper professional league setup they would. Yet they will be seen again this next round of matches no doubt. I actually watched the "highlights" from the Cuntic TV feed, and at no point did they call for a foul for that challenge, merely slagging the defender for his fuck-up. That whole mob must have been laughing their bollocks off after how it ended. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Based on guidance apparently issued to refs that isn't freely available for us to view and understand it seems. When the Morelos goal was chalked off var couldn't intervene as it wasn't a clear and obvious error. In what then wasn't a clear and obvious error on Sunday var intervened and cos they did the ref overturned his on field decision. Across the city as a club, fanbase and with msm cheerleader allies they go tonto for weeks over decisions not in their favour. Campaigns against refs. We're often polar opposite, accept it with some vigorously defending it, and when the club complain the Board are criticised for doing so. At times we deserve what we get, and when the next big goal is chalked off, or the opponents get away with things we're penalised for, we'll again accept it and move along quietly.

This is absolutely the case, and it's something that's been decades in the making. I remember about 15 years ago, picking up a newspaper in Central Station on a Monday morning after we won at Parkhead. I'm not sure if anyone here will remember the game, but Kirk Broadfoot won a penalty when he dribbled in the box and was fouled by a baldy Swedish defender (Can't remember who exactly, might have been Thomas Graveson?). Anyway, it was probably soft-sih for the time (would be an absolute stick-on nowadays), the defender stepped across Broadfoot who knocked the ball past him, and he sort of went down of the guys knee. As far as penalty decisions go, you would we see 100+ more controversial penalty calls on any given weekend across Europe, it really wasn't that controversial. I'm not sure we'd have complained much had we not got it, but on balance, it was probably a fair penalty shout. Anyway, we scored the penalty, think it might have been Kenny Miller, and went on to win the game. Now the reason I picked up a paper was to enjoy reading the back pages that Monday... but instead of some articles on the football... no joke... there was a double page spread by Billy McNeil, which to paraphrase, read something like "This is nothing new, we've been cheated for over 50 years". The meat of the article was that back in his day, ref's were against them for being the only real Catholic club in a protestant country, and that bigotry was still playing a part in the decision making in the modern game. Fucking unbelievable, that a reputable paper would even print such a thing, but this is exactly the kind of relentless propaganda they have been peddling for as long as I can remember. A decision that goes against them, can't ever just be the correct decision, can it? No, it has to be orchestrated campaign of sectarian bigotry. That's the long term, relentless pressure that they always placed upon the ref's. From Assaulting Hugh Dallas on the field, to having him booted out of the SFA for forwarding a humorous email, to causing ref's to actually strike because Neil Lennon didn't get the decisions he wanted. Even in an Ibrox stadium packed full of only home fans, these ref's are still so terrified of celtic they conjure up fouls were none exist - to avoid the wrath that will come upon them (accusations of bigotry or being a freemason), if don't make they calls that celtic expect to get.
