Zamora Fan Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 3 minutes ago, S7C said: So it’s ok to claim that the “Old Firm” have the referees in their favour and not be labelled delusional, but not to claim that one side in particular seemingly gets the bulk of said controversial decisions? Yes because it's not true. You are delusional. Plenty to be encouraged about from our performance here considering how much has went against us. Phillips and MacPherson deserve the chance to make middle of the park their own over the next few games. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don’t see the relevance, nor did I call it a conspiracy. I called out the lazy “Old Firm” trope and you spat the dummy out because you don’t like it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sure you don’t think Celtic get away with as much as Rangers that’s your prerogative. Yet history shows that Celtic do benefit from a lot more decisions than other teams and have done for many years. Leaving Rangers aside, you can’t debate this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It happens going on every game involving controversy and the Old Firm label gets trotted out instead of calling it out for it has been. I think Celtic do benefit from the crowd at Celtic Park and the pressure on referees. But the penalty differential for the last 5 seasons is something like +35 to the nearest club at +9. You can debate the reasons for it all day, but that is a significant difference, whether people like it or not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJF Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Pish game all round to be fair. Good to see Cantwell and Hagi get minutes but not much else to get excited about. Don’t think either Clark or Jack were reds. Handball seemed to clearly hit him but couldn’t see how close it was after deflecting towards him. Phillips looks a very good player for St Johnstone on that showing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had seen them posted awhile back, somewhere on here I think. It was talking about since the inception of VAR how many decisions were overturned etc. Every game Celtic has played has resulted in something being overturned. The main issue is the rank incompetence, yes, Celtic get decisions they really shouldn’t, we also have decisions against us that shouldn’t have happened. This happens to all teams, but today definitely showed that Rangers appear to benefit the most from the honest mistakes. No idea how Jack didn’t give away a penalty. It’s miles in the box and he books him… Edit: I’m informed it wasn’t in the Rangers box so I take that back Should be a red.

The_Kincardine Posted January 28, 2023 Share Posted January 28, 2023 Vanguard Assistant Referee causing controversy again. Bit of a meh game, really. Drey Wright could've made it interesting just on HT but fell on his arse instead. A deserved 3 points but not one which will be remembered beyond tonight. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
