I think it’s a tad silly to suggest players shouldn’t be a bit pleased they managed to salvage a draw in the fashion that they did when Celtic had it sewn up before capitulating, twice.

The only one I felt went OTT was Silva and I said as much a few pages back.

Did you BOOOO the team off the park at half-time M8?
It's also nice to see a rangers fan give Celtic credit for their performance M8.

Celtic have written to the SFA for clarification over the Rangers Fabio Silva penalty flashpoint – as they are convinced ref John Beaton wasn’t given the full picture.

Hoops chiefs have concerns over the VAR footage sent to the whistler to consider after his initial decision to yellow card the Gers attacker for diving in Sunday’s Ibrox thriller. Celts believe the clip Beaton was shown on the sidelines did not include the moment Alistair Johnston touched the ball before Silva collided with his outstretched leg.

 

The VAR footage was shown by broadcasters Sky Sports but the slowed down section did not include the initial tackle. Under IFAB rules, a challenge can still be a penalty if the defending player gets the ball first and the officials deem the tackle to be careless, reckless or has excess force.

Any news on the missiles thrown at the Celtic dugout yet, mate?

Anyone who thinks that's a penalty is haunted.

Aye haunted by years of soft decisions going for both of the old firm.

Celtic had our number the first half and should’ve been out of sight. By far the better side. Then they proceeded to chuck it.

Now zippy,their is also a train of thought Beaton allows VAR to make the decision for him.
Using VAR as a safety net.

I’m not disputing the fact he played for the foul, but I disagree he was on his way down before the contact.

You can see in this clip at about 2:30, the view from behind the goal, that pretty clearly Johnston makes contact with Silva’s right knee before he goes down. You can actually see Johnston’s boot sort of ricochet back the way from the impact. It’s only after that Silva goes down.

 

It looks like a penalty , unfortunately !

Silva is a cheat though !

Imagine arguing that getting kicked in the knee in the penalty box isn't a penalty. Deranged stuff

Both managers made mistakes with team selections and subs M8.

Intimidating the referees not to give decisions against them in future, again.  SFA should enforce the suspended ban on rodgers now.

Brother Beaton highlighting his clear and obvious error is very clever M8 the yellow card is the icing on the cake,the foul on Iwata for dessers disallowed goal when a phase of play ends is a toss of a coin.

Almost as deranged as the whole club/company argument.

Not quite though.

Silva is a cheating b@stard and he went down theatrically but hard to argue on the replay that it's getting given as a penalty.

Yes. Johnston gets a tiny touch on the ball, but he's left his leg in there begging to be fallen over.

As always the old firm gets spoken about for days with both sets of fans thinking the refs are against them.

 Yep agree with this. I think if we are being honest here we would all  be looking to be given that as a penalty if it was our team. It sticks in the craw though because we all know it wasn’t an honest attempt by Silva to beat his man, he was always going down.

Nobody has mentioned this,it's the day after M8,miniumum contact on the ball and man brother beaton could've waved play on,whether you agree or disagree with the decision it's irrelevant M8.waving play on for Dessers disallowed goal with more contact on the player and less contact of the ball highlights the inconsistency.
Showing a yellow card stops the play,any meaningful touch on the ball from a Celtic player stops the phase of play.
The big decisions are getting made from miles away,the on-field ref is just a puppet.

If he was allowing VAR to make the decision for him he wouldn't have immediately blown and booked Silva (correctly).

'Writing to the SFA for clarification' is Old Firm for 'Dae you know who we ur?'

If Silva goes down more conventionally, and hasn't spent a fair chunk of the match prior to this rolling around the ground like a snipers hit him, then there is little controversy about the penalty award.

I'm more annoyed that Johnston gave him a lot of reason to go down.

Any striker will go to ground if they feel that much contact in the box, some just do it better than others.

You do realise that the referee is the one that made all the decisions yesterday don't you? If you've been following Scottish football this season you'll have seen some occasions where the referee has been sent to the screen and stuck with his original decision. And, whisper it, even against Rangers.

Naw they brought on McGregor for what they thought was a cameo appearance when he was nowhere near match fit
