letsalldothebeattie Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 An absolute joke of a decision by the SFA. As you and countless others say it was a clear red card. I wonder if they have bowed under the pressure of that whining statement that Rangers put out following the ban being handed out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mid Calder Jambo Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Every team in Scotland other than the two bigot brothers would be as well to just go and start their own association as we all get baws all from the GFA, This decision just confirms what we have all known for years that Glasgow football is corrupt to the core and we all thought Sepp Blatter was twisted, not a patch on that lot at Hampden.

Bull's-eye Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Might as well just come out publically and say Old Firm matches are so precious and special that any infringements will be rectified after the game to keep both clubs happy. Plenty referees have stated publically that it's refereed differently so it's no surprise the tribunal acts in the same way. All for the greater good.

To be fair it took me about 16 views to be sure Brown didn't nut Flanagans elbow and take a dive. Could it be the decision was made by someone who likes Broony as much as I do?? In all seriousness it really isn't up for a debate and clear corruption at play. So many comparisons could be made for less obvious incidents with heavier punishments.

Vic Vespa Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 There would have been loud calls and howls to do the Celtic player for his assault on Defoe if Flanagan had been done, so they just let him off, best option all round for the 3 parties involved ?

reaths17 Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 what you all must remember is that all the clubs supported this giving sevco and celtic the same veto on everything, same as rangers and celtic, when there was a chance to break it and HEARTS were one of them. if your looking to have a go at anybody look closer to home for what ails scottish fitba, we are part of the disgrace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wee Mikey Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 The overall tone for this season, and the subsequent confusion, began with the overturning of Morelos' red card for his blatent kick-out right at the start. If you then include the utter myopia of the 'Specsaver Squad' (my personal favourite being Sevco scoring a goal v Hearts at Tynecastle with 3 men offside on the 18-yard box line, and the baffling decisions, with my most memorable one being a foul AGAINST Uche having been grappled to the ground by a 'Well player who had Uche in a full-on WWF head-lock! (I cannae find the picture but remember it being a stoater! Please post it, someone). Is it any wonder that I cannae remember a season whereby the referees have taken up so much time and space everywhere from post-match rants, to TV & radio analysis, to fans' forums?

jambosdad Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 I feel sure one of the Celtic centre backs was let off earlier in season. Do they actually look at the videos when it's an OF player.
