TheBigO Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 I still feel sorry for Rangers after Celtic got that penalty against us in the cup final. Mind you, Rangers got all those penalties against St Mirren so I guess it's fair. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hectormasson Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 4 hours ago, Biguche said: And Celtic's response.. oh dear, oh dear! The Scottish FA compliance officer is to review comments made by ex-Celtic captain Tom Boyd about referee John Beaton during Saturday's League Cup win against Dunfermline. Commentating for CelticTV, the club ambassador criticised the referee for not awarding the hosts a penalty. "If he doesn't know that's a penalty he should not be in the middle of the park refereeing a football game," Boyd said. "He'll probably be welcomed down his pub tonight again." Celtic said in a statement: "We have had absolutely no contact from the SFA in relation to this matter and, given the context and circumstances in which the comments were made, would be astonished if the matter were to be progressed. If it is, then we will respond robustly." Holders Celtic beat Dunfermline 2-1 in extra time and during half-time of the additional 30-minute period, Boyd commented further on Beaton's decision not to give the hosts a spot-kick for handball. "Old law, new law, no matter what kind of law, that is a penalty," he said. "How John Beaton hasn't given that... we've seen it before from referees like this. John Beaton not giving us penalty, absolutely stunning decision… standing alone there, I wonder what his thoughts are. "I'm mystified… I'm not mystified. John Beaton as though it was a pre-meditated decision not to give that penalty because it was so late in the game, I'm not sure. "It's come off his arm. Regardless of players down or whatever, he's not given a drop ball. So he's seen it hit the hand of the Dunfermline player and it should be a penalty. Outrageous decision from John Beaton. "We've not played well, but once again a decision from a referee may cost us in this game, hopefully we'll go on and beat not the 10 men, not the 11 men of Dunfermline, but the 12 men." The compliance officer is to investigate the nature of the comments. Boyd played for Celtic between 1992 and 2003, winning eight trophies, and was capped 72 times by Scotland. Piece of s...e boyd is ! Hates hearts and tynecastle ! Epitomising what that lot are,everyone's against us shite !!! Despicable wee c...t ...

SectionDJambo Posted August 19, 2019 Share Posted August 19, 2019 This would be coming under the rule that the SFA invented, to hit Hearts with, when Romanov was pointing out, in his own inimitable way, how corrupt the SFA and Scottish referees were. He wasn’t, officially, connected to Hearts so they made this rule up. I, and many others of my age, have spent over half a century watching both sides of the poisonous duo in Glasgow, getting decisions in their favour which defied belief. The Scottish press, mostly, have kept a satisfied silence on these matters, showing their true colours as either too scared to speak out, or part of the problem. This country is diseased with sectarianism which has supported a duopoly of those 2 clubs over many years. The only time there was a respite, in my time going to see Hearts, was when Ferguson and McLean consistently called the referees out for their corrupt bias towards them. Two strong characters who wouldn’t be silenced and, to a large extent, prevailed to the benefit of Aberdeen and Dundee United. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victorian Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Celtic issue these laughable, pompous, warcry type statements in every instance of criticism or possible sanction. They do so because they feel completely obliged to. Their lunatic support demands nothing less than Defcon 1. It's in their collective psyche to deny, deflect and justify. Anything and everything.

jambosdad Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Mr Boyd should look at the highlights of Celtic v Motherwell. Just after Motherwell had taken lead they had one of the clearest fouls in Celtic’s box, totally ignored by ref. If they had gone 2-0 might not have got gubbed 6-2.

TheBigO Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Tom Boyd is a welt. As Celtic as Celtic get. A parody of their paranoia and "only the OF matter" type psyche these boils on the arse of our game have. That said, this whole wee scenario points out exactly what's wrong with our game. Cos he's right. In a way. John Beaton is a current bun, locals will know this and he does go to the pub after reffing big games and act the big man. He has given some astonishing decisions in favour of Rangers. He is an awful ref. A tit of a man, to boot. It just isn't a massive leap for anyone at all Celticky to assume bias and agenda with a guy like this. And guys like this are rife - on both sides of that ugly divide - throughout our referees. It's all the problems with our reffing and OF-centric game and country wrapped up quite nicely really. 95% of our refs coming from Lanark and Glasgow. Only 3 Edinburgh refs in history have reffed a Scottish Cup Final, and more and more facts to back up the actual bias in our country - not towards Rangers or Celtic, but towards Rangers AND Celtic. Celtic of course get far, far more decisions in their favour than against them, and Boyd has more than a cheek to even go there. Try walking a mile in our shoes, son. But, as horribly as he has stated it, he has a point. Just not really the one he thinks he has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pasquale for King Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Beaton is a currant bun, any Eric from them on Collum though? Boyd is as thick as they come, not many can say they scored for Brazil in a World Cup though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
