10menwent2mow Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 Main should have been off too. Truly bizarre blaming that defeat on the officials. More blame should be on McInnes for picking jobbers like Main, dire defending from Taylor and poor decision making from Cosgrove.No one is blaming the officials. Its the baffling inconsistency that everyone (well not rangers and celtic fans) sees on a weekly basis. Quite simply, there is no way Beaton sends a Rangers player off for what Hedges went for and as for the stoppage time, it's madness. Aberdeen leading 2-1 in that game and there is at least 4 minutes added on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could say that about many things. Is it natural justice if someone breaks your leg in a challenge and isn’t red carded? That’s deemed possible within the laws. rightly or wrongly those are the laws of the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotland's old UNIONIST party - where the name comes from - was nothing to do with Scottish independence.and all to do with our union with Ireland.

Everything else is deemed matter of fact, i.e. did it happen or not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No it isn't fucking awesome. Sunrise over the Grand Canyon is awesome. A cure for cancer is awesome. Having your nails done isn't. Likewise, a 10 yard pass to your own player is not 'brilliant'. Dial down the hyperbole Ally, otherwise you've nowhere to go when something 'brilliant' actually does happen.. “Awesome” is one of these irksome Americanisms that get me unnecessarily riled. Anyone using them seriously (I know you’re not) can get swiftly in the sea. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dial down the hyperbole Ally, otherwise you've nowhere to go when something 'brilliant' actually does happen.. Aye agree. Rangers scored a goal a few months ago where Kent or Arfield or someone played a first time five yard sideways pass to the scorer and it was a neat touch and stuff but he was still talking about it 20 minutes later. Also, it's Rangers in Scotland this season, they're bending it right up every team they play, calm down. On the penalty incident, the laws of the game say it's a red, so it's a red. I'm surprised (well, not really....) that principle seems to be getting argued. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You've had plenty decisions go in your favour in these games as well. Ultimately the result was fair.There is no inconsistency that particularly favours Celtic or Rangers, they both benefit equally from the baffling inconsistencies of Scottish refs. Main should not have been sent off, Barisic's foot was at the same height, Main was neither reckless, or out of control in my opinion.Was the result fair, on the balance of play, yes. I sure that had Rangers lost a man to the decision that Aberdeen had and been a goal down chasing the game in stoppage time, you'd be saying exactly the same thing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agreed. I reckon that there was enough room for interpretation. But i would say that. I thought Beaton's worst decision was not booking Hagi for the clearest dive i've seen for a while. Also thought Main was lucky to stay on. If it had been closer to the ref he'd have been off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool so if you don't think Main should have been off then what are you complaining about? Hedges on was a clear red according to the rules. Did you complain as much when your team have got beneficial and incorrect decisions against Rangers? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Main could have been deemed as endangering the safety of an opponent which is serious foul play. both his feet are off the floor which means you’re out of control. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
