SectionDJambo Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 45 minutes ago, Pasquale for King said: He simply has to keep flagging it up every time it happens, all the managers need to do it. Credit to him for doing so again. Ferguson and McLean highlighted the favouritism of officials to the old firm so regularly to the point that the seeds of doubt were planted in those officials’ minds for the future. They knew that anything dodgy was going to be publicly challenged. Robbie is absolutely right to challenge such decision making as we saw last night, but he had to be more cute about how he does it, so as to keep out of trouble. As has been mentioned, he could use the GMS incident, where he did manage to trip himself up, to publicly apologise to Madden for seeing it wrongly at the time, but then ask when Hearts are getting their apology for the goal being given and an explanation of the bizarre incident with Jota.

Lone Striker Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 29 minutes ago, joondalupjambo said: Did Brother Madden simply think that GMW fouled Jota, looking from his angle of events? I am sure that was what he would be saying if he was allowed. Obviously that was not the case and what followed, where there was a drop ball with Haring being asked to step back and telling Celtic that they were allowed possession hence the reasons it played out the way it did. My take on that incident that it was a referring error pure and simple. If he simply came out and said that we would we as supporters be more understanding? Just for this one event I mean not for all his other, endless and ongoing muck up's What's the rules for restarting with a drop ball ? I thought it was the player from one side who volunteered to give free possession to the other team - a sort of gentleman's agreement. Does the referee actually have the power to TELL one side to step aside and let the other team have free possession ? That sounds outrageous even if we ignore the fact that he wrongly gave it to Celtic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was probably Madden saying what he saw and thought of the incident. If there is a specific rule then it was clear as day that Madden never used it and used what should now be known as "Madden's Rule". As I said he would need to go public and justify his reasons but that will not happen or at least I will be surprised if he does.

Wouldn’t happen to an actual Newco player playing for them now. There would have to be some media reporting. Hearts player? Nothing to see here. Scottish football is a joke.

Cade Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 18 hours ago, Lone Striker said: Agree.... but only if they show the incident backwards & forwards on big screens in the ground before announcing the decision. Like they do in the EPL. Otherwise, it just enables the weegie conspiracy to perpetuate. Madden refers the "goal" to VAR. Silence for 30 seconds. No video shown. Whisper from VAR ref in Maddens earpiece. "Goal stands". This is exactly how VAR will work in Scotland. The guys in the video suite will simply ignore blatant OF rule breaking and overly punish every little thing anybody else does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OTT Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 Problem we have is that losing Robbie from the dugout has consequences, so as satisfying as it is to hear in the moment, its just not worth it. I think a simple 'the club will be making a formal complaint' and no commenting the rest of the interview might do more. Or alternatively send an assistant coach to absolutely rinse the referee in the interview instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finlay James Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 The media spin on Celtic is outrageous and always has been. Take Kyogo as an example, he is a quality player that has the media in a frenzy yet no one is calling out his ridiculous play acting. Celtic have done this for years. David Provan once got Willie Johnston sent off when Willie patted his head and Provan went down like he'd been taken out by a sniper.

Whether that is correct, McGregor should have either played the ball long to Craig Gordon or just played it back to his own keeper. The fact he initiated an attack, to the surprise of our players (and clearly Madden, who had told Haring to stand back) shows what a classless **** he is and he is escaping criticism.
