The consistency part is still right though, yeah they are looking out for themselves but at least its a valid point for once, both during and post match has been glaring inconsistencies 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a sincere request for consistency. It's simply a request that they be favoured more than they currently think is the case.

My only minor quibble is that I see little wrong with English's article though a fair few Rangers fans would take issue with me. While our stovies were cooking this evening I spent about an hour trawling through both FF and Kerrydale Street and there's remarkable commonality between both sets of fans: The MSM, The Footballing Authorities and The Refs are conspiring together to throw everything and the kitchen sink to prevent One in a Row or Nine in a Row. Delete as appropriate. The only difference is that the green dummy has been spat a lot more than the blue one in the past 11 days but that doesn't change the narrative much. Very decent of you to say that. It would certainly appear that Celtic supporters are taking this worse due to losing the last match. I’ve no doubt that the reaction would have been reversed had the result gone the other way. By the way, we had corned beef hash for tea. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theres nothing sincere about it, but it is still a case for consistency, celtic never once denied what christie done, they just wanted him treated the same as morelos, thats not them wanting more favour, had morelos been banned last time for it we wouldnt be hearing a word about christies one As for rangers, they argued for VAR, and rightly due to not only the offside cup final goal, but the handball goal as well, they havent asked for anything that favours them, just a system to spot errors Every club, especially the OF look out for themselves, but in this case both the OF are correct in their calls, 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangers don't want VAR to make things fair. They want instead to highlight isolated injustices that cost them. Neither have quite asked for anything that explicitly favours them, further than everything structural that already does. Even they know they can't actually be seen to request different rules. They are however raising the issue in pursuit of an agenda that provides further advantage. By making lots of noise, they foster the paranoid crap that goes a long way to galvanising their gormless followers.

What was this "meltdown" though? Are you really just referring to when I said there was a distasteful degree of Celtic love In evidence from diddy fans? How foolish, to describe a comment as a meltdown. Use some phrases of your own, rather than just go for mindless P&B staples. They point towards a want of wit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And of course, I didn’t expect any of the fans of the two clubs involved to do anything but come out with condemnation for it. The only problem these fans, Celtic and Rangers, now have, is to decide which of their clubs Tom English doesn’t like most. You're not very good at reading between the lines,if you want to hide behind the egg chasers opinion without posting your own it's a classic sheep response. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
