The usual posters will rush out and say “by the letter of the law it’s a foul”.

Not so sure it would have been given the other way.

Fuck Var.

(funny how the scales push with 5 times the force wasn’t given)

4 goals chopped off in 2 years. 

Never seen anything like it. If that happens to them you know how bad the reaction would be. 

Never a foul Hart lost the flight of the ball.

Does my nut in the amount of apologists we have in our support for the officials.

There’s plenty of 50/50 decisions in every game. Thats 5 in 5 old firms we’ve just “happened” to be on the wrong side of the big ones.

Good amount of pressure on Beaton pays off again.

Getting the Scales decision wrong, and he did, doesn't mean the Raskin one wasn't right. Clearly fucked the Scales one. And the Sterling yellow one. And the Sima yellow one.

[Blues Brother 1,132]

Not enough in it for a foul. VAR shouldn’t get involved. They should only get involved if it’s blatant. The officials are scared.

[kanjo 26,412]

Another wonderful advert for refereeing standards today. 
 

funny that we won’t hear them being criticised l tonight.  Why is that? Because they’ve had questionable decision number 20 go for the bheasts? Very likely. 
 

this shite needs called out for what it is.  Beyond parody now. 

[bluenoz 31,359]

My big beef was nae neck's tackle. Lundstram has received a straight red card for similar lunges.

And why did VAR intervene on Raskin's push, but not Scales' push and obstruction?

It's been going on all season and I hope Clement addresses it post-match, although I highly doubt it and that's part of the problem.

[DeanMK 4,870]

Just watched the Sima goal back again as I was watching it in the pub and thought my judgement was clouded.

Nope.

Absolutely abysmal decision. 

The type of decision that would prompt those mutants to produce a documentary about.

Hart was already moving forward. Raskin touches him, sure, but there's zero force in it.

Utterly weak and woeful officiating. 

Yet another game that they've dictated the outcome of.

Course they are. Rodgers took Beaton to town earlier in the season. It worked

We have to wise up. Ignore the naive muppets in our own support who think that everything is fine.

Going to be hard enough next year as it is, without facing another 5 old firms where all the big decisions just happen to go against us again.

[SeparateEntityMyArse 54,492]

We're not allowed to score first against them.

Prove me wrong.

[Redmond7 1,253]

If that decision happens at the other end, we go on and win the match, there would be calls for a public enquiry, questions in parliament and the referee would need to find a new home in a different country. 

[SkylineBlue 24,727]

It's soft as fuck, but it's a foul every day of the week with VAR in place. Raskin should know better. The only thing that complicates it is that Taylor's hands are all over him. Not sure what the letter of the law is there.

[superallysbears 7,907]

It's fucking blatant and idiots that are sucked in by it are fucking delusional, it'll continue until we take a stand.

Rangers push = foul

Scum push = no foul

Whats so hard to understand?

Corrupt as fuck.

Not sure how we take a stand. We've called out individual refs, the sfa, tried to garner support for independent investigations into the whole fucking system. 

It's corrupt as fuck but as long as we're losing out the country seems quite happy to accept things.

[the old guard 2,360]

Just wait till father colums in charge, it'll be even worse. 

[rossco87 712]

Said in the match thread - it’s pretty soft put Raskin does push Hart so gave him VAR the opportunity. The issue is the 3 shirt pulls and worse push on Sterling that are all just missed and never discussed.

 

Until we find a way of highlighting the missed calls and putting pressure back on refs to explain why they look at the goal but not the shirt pulls then nothing is going to change.

 

And that doesn’t even get into what world the ref can watch Sterling go in hard and fair and win the ball and somehow think it is a foul and booking…

Id have walked the team off the park and told them to shove it up their arse, we're being shafted.

We copy their play book. Use ex players to push our narrative (or an even more extreme version of it) just now it is only really Boyd that does it - we need to find a way to make sure our ex players who have a voice are using it to our advantage. 
 

Have players and management speak about it disappointing decisions that we didn’t get during press conferences.  Nothing that could be worthy of a ban but we could be asking fan media to give them a few leading questions that give them the opportunity

 

”Philip that is another decision that has gone against you and the fans are furious that the referee seemingly punished your players yet missed several instances of a similar level of contact that could have been reviewed for penalties - can you sympathise with the fans feelings that the decisions given and not given have had a big bearing on the outcome of recent OFs?”

 

Also use RTV and YouTube / social media. Make sure our match highlights make a big deal of any decisions we feel were missed. Make them clipable so it is easy for them to be picked up and shared by fans.

I’m not an apologist ya fucking clown.

The push from Scales was a freekick, but VAR doesn’t get involved there.

Its interesting isn't it, that the taigs have been calling for investigations into officiating etc for about 70 years now according to billy mcbungle - yet when we bring it up, they don't support the motion. Whose fooling who really.

Var seems to get involved any time it wants to benefit celtic. And conveniently not be involved any 50/50 that benefits us.

Thats all I’m seeing. And its boring as fuck watching our own fans leap to its defence

[bluenoz 31,359]

In the first half, they ran the ball out. It should have been a goal kick to Rangers. Instead, we couldn't gain possession for about two minutes afterwards.

Make no mistake, the linesmen play their part in the cheating.

[Scottywellhousetb 51,046]

We are only screaming about decisions because we are shite at the moment, there is no conspiracy, we are shite at the moment ,scottish football is shite and we are currently a wee bit shiter than them, referees in Scotland are howling bad, they are not the reason we are where we are.

[bluenoz 31,359]

... and Sterling's booking is a farce giving them a free kick in a dangerous area, yet Scales obstructs Sima that would have resulted in a free kick in a dangerous area for us. 

It's cheating at an outrageous level.
