Would VAR intervene in those Sibbick style incidents anyway? Its not a clear and obvious error. 

 

Only if the shoe was on the other foot. They will pick and choose when VAR intervenes. Not really sure why anyone thinks it is a good idea.

Ball was miles over the line..

 

How the sellick forward got a header in 2 yards out really is quite shocking..

So lost a goal where a foul should have been given in the lead up to it. 
 

Then lose a goal where the lino had to “guess.”

 

🙃


To be fair the other lino had to guess ours wasn’t offside.

Love how BBC are quick to put on text linesman vindicated that ball was over the line.

Absolutely no mention of ref being totally wrong in not giving foul on Sibbick. Also no help by linesman on that decision.

Anyone that expects fair decisions in matches that these Glasgow ***** are involved in is wasting their breath.

Turnbull and Taylor are pish and have an aura of Hibs about them. 

They’ve all crawled out from under the same stone mate.

Correct, will make it worse in my opinion. Will only get involved when it suits the establishment.

HT. Decent performance. Only disappointments are Atkinson and Moore's decision making and McKay. Gino has been very good.

Only if those assessing it aren’t biased

(Can't clear the quote box) 

 

If Mckay has 4 celtic players closing him down, where are ours giving him options?

 

That's one of the big differences, was the same when Sibbeck was caught before the goal.

For what? The officials wouldn't change the Sibbick decision because it wouldn't be reviewed.

No, which is just typical

Its not a 'definite' foul. 

I think we'll have to agree to disagree here as it looked a clear foul for me although no way would scottish VAR be disallowing that against them.

Atkinson’s attempt at defending is embarrassing. 
 

Sibbick casual and clueless.

 

Mckay anonymous.

Tbf it was well over 🤣

Definitely, but Sky said the lino have it (and guessed at it). I thought refs had a wee pager, Beaton did for our goal in the 2020 cup final

they usually cant keep that intensity going for long into the 2nd half

Hopefully we can capitalise on them dropping off

That was a tough half. We just couldn't cope with the Celtic runs into our box. Too many Celtic balls were not won in the air by Sibbick or Moore. Credit to Simms for a predatory finish.

 

Ahhhh, remember when Berra just won every ball in the box? We could do with that.

Boyce is a waste of a jersey loses the ball every time


Yep, his hold up play has been awful.  Atkinson probably worse though.

Exactly, I find it hard to believe that all of our glasgow refs are going to see anything other than what they want to see and will bend over backwards to justify it.

Celtic will be eager for third and get over the line today. 
 

IF Robbie can get us organised we can exploit that. 
 

Despite a few gripes and the fact we’ve got nothing to play for, we are still in with a chance.

This is an important game for Celtic, so we shouldn't expect many marginal decisions going our way.

 

Nevertheless, we need to up our game.  That was not an impressive half.

Yep - Fair enough Rudi. 

 

I still dont think VAR would overrule it though as the incident would have to be clear enough for the VAR official to question the on field decision. If it was a hand ball or offside i think it would get flagged but not so sure about a 50/50 foul in the opposite end of the pitch.

Barrie McKay hasn't played well at all has gave ball away nearly every the he's had it worst I've seen him play. Hopefully second half he wakes up

Yup. Getting a bit frustrated when Sibbick stands up to a player, the Celtic player does a quick give and go and Sibbick is still ball watching.

Defending Celtic is all about reacting and going with the run.

Never any composure shown at this piggery, scoring the first goal and nothing to really play for,should have settled us down....but here we go again....rabbit in headlights and continually trying to part with the ball in an instant, resulting in lost possession. Up the tempo please Hearts !!

Just watching the replays the ball was over the line then Gordon was barged into! Or maybe not difficult to judge.

Kyogo slams into Gordon for their 2nd and pushes him back the way. Should have been disallowed imo.

They will start to tire in the second half. We haven't looked to great but think we will come back into it. A few sloppy performances and McKay hasn't really shown his class, yet.  Definitely a foul on Sibbick leading up to their goal. Ginnelly looking like he wants a place in the side. His pace could  cause them problems once their energy starts to drop
