Sten Guns Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 In real time I thought the ref was right. But in slow motion I think a yellow is correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ecjambo Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 'Recklessly dangerous play' sounds like it should be a straight red...usually. Just looked at it again, and Brown's clearly wound up by the goal and foul moments earlier. He's clearly went in to the boy out of frustration and probably to give him a bit of an injury. How the SFA have changed it to a yellow is beyond me. It's just another example of how football is so unbelievably biased towards Celtic and Rangers.

GenovaHearts Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Easily could have been a career ending tackle and easiest decision a referee could make bearing in mind he was only a few yards away with a direct view. Had the foul been on a Celtic player there is no way way the muppets at the SFA would rescind the sending off. Corrupt to the core. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest jonesy Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 They're not even hiding it anymore. This entire league is setup to assist Celtic win it with as little impact as possible on their six glamour humpings from the Euro Elite. The SFA are stinking degenerates, who could and should have convened to confirm the red stood before the semi-final v Rangers, but shat themselves. Now, wallowing in said faeces, decided to simply start munching it. Nothing but contempt for anything to do with that bunch of self-serving junket goons. Hope the Scottish national team get absolutely humped in all remaining fixtures. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LeftBack Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Baffling decision for a number of reasons - not least because it was an obvious red (IMO and that of Rodgers and indeed Bonner on the radio). But I dont understand the thinking behind the decision - if I had been there (!) I would have said - look Celtic have won the league, let's stick to original decision, no-one really loses but if we go to a yellow all the conspiracy theorists will be out and our (the authorities) name will be ridiculed. By rescinding the decision you are opening so many cans of worms never mind the fact it should never have been rescinded at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mikey1874 Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 This is a scandalous decision. I no longer understand what constitutes a straight red and I don't think I am alone.

jamboinglasgow Posted April 27, 2017 Share Posted April 27, 2017 Most likely they chickened out because of Halliday wrongly given yellow rather than a red on Sunday. They were probably worried that if they kept Brown's red card then there would be calls from Celtic fans of bias.

Dusk_Till_Dawn Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 The bottom line is that the SFA have a league where one team are 24 points clear and a national team who couldn't qualify for a Sainsbury's nectar card.

The SFA don't want any competition to the sellik domination in this country, maybe sevco when they recover, but certainly none of the other clubs.

The Treasurer Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 A minor point that has been overlooked here. When Brenda was interviewed after the game he agreed it was a straight red. They only appealed so that he'd be free to play in the semi. So even his own manager thought it was a correct decision but he still gets away with it.

Just have a look at his influence behind the scenes at the SFA - Hearts getting absolutely hammered with fines for 'poor discipline', the total whitewash of Hibs fans riot at Hampden, the regular down grading of their red cards, not to mention GOC not being punished for an outrageous bit of cheating that even their assistant Manager called a blatant dive!

I agree with everything you are saying, the SFA is an absolute disgrace. My point is that Petrie only had some influence whilst he remains in Lawell's pocket. Hammering Hearts and not Rangers and Hibs also suits the Lawell/Celtic agenda. If Petrie ever has to go against his master the games up for him and hibs.

Erik Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 Unfortunately, for as long as we do nothing other than sit on the internet moaning about such decisions, the conspiracy / favouritism / bias / corruptness / cheating / levelling out of honest mistakes or whichever word or phrse you'd rather use - it will continue. There is one way and one way only to address the situation and that's as a result of the fans actually properly 'having enough' and turning their back on the game till something is done about it. Its literally the only way to stand up and be counted and the only way that they'll take any notice. Would love to see a country wide protest against the OF. Whether that's through completely boycotting their games, or ALL games or whatever else - it would take something of that kinda scale to get some results. Unfortunately though, folk will always whap out the 'why should I miss out on a game I've already paid for' or the 'aye but not going to the game hurts Hearts more than it hurts celtic' or other soppy excuses like that. Trust me, if Hearts, or Aberdeen or Kilmarnock or whoever else were faced with a complete supporter boycott which would hurt them financially - they'd speak up about it quicker than you can spell out C O N S P I R A C Y. For as long as fans keep paying their money, taking their seats and doing nothing other than moan on social media about it - nothing will be done.

When faced with large scale boycotts, and angry clubs - they'd have no choice but to pay attention. It'll never happen sadly, or never on the scale needed to make it count anyway.

Bridge of Djoum Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 I was arguing with one Celtic fan who was saying that if the ref hadn't awarded the penalty, then brown wouldn't have done the tackle that he did so all in all a fair outcome. What a complete and utter knob of a man. I asked square did he think it was a red card and he replied 'well the fact that a panel decided that it was a yellow then no' Talking to a Celtic fan?
