AJF Posted April 7 Author Share Posted April 7 I’m not sure there can be many complaints about any decisions. Clear Goldson handball and foul in the build up to Dessers scoring. Johnstone one also a foul. Got a touch on the ball but never really changed the direction of it in any meaningful way and caught Silva on his knee before he would’ve got to the byline. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

54_and_counting Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 13 minutes ago, Jinky67 said: Ok so it’s possible in your opinion for VAR to be used multiple times in the same match and the referee still come to the wrong decision in some instances and not in others? It has happened yes but today it didn't and in fact out of the 5 VAR decisions at Ibrox in OF games this season imo all 5 were eventually the correct calls As for the ref coming to the wrong decision after looking at VAR, then the bigger concern is that two refs not one, have came to the wrong decision So, after the revelation that celtic have had 80% of the VAR decisions at ibrox in OF games go their way, do you still not have faith in it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The foul for our penalty and the one that disallowed Dessers goal were very similar. Both fouls. Just because Johnstone got a touch on the ball doesn’t mean it’s not a foul if Silva is going to get the ball after his challenge. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not saying he isn’t important but I don’t agree with a former player Thommo on BBC Scotland radio pre match against NI saying that McGregor is the best midfielder that Scotland currently have at our disposal. He was called out on this by the other pundits and he doubled down. My opinion fwiw is that CalMac is a very good player - but he certainly is not tested most weeks playing in Scotland for Celtic. He is very important to both Celtic and Scotland and I want to see him fit for the Germany game and beyond. I just disagree with Thommo that he is the BEST midfielder we have available for the Euros.

Just because Johnstone got a touch on the ball doesn’t mean it’s not a foul if Silva is going to get the ball after his challenge. Silva was never ever getting to that ball. Why? Because he wasn't interested in getting to it. He was interested in simulating contact. You know that and I know that. So let's call it for what it was. Pure deception on Silva's part. If Beaton hadn't been so quick with the card for diving, and given a goal-kick, this discussion would not be happening and the incident would have been forgotten about. Beaton was the ref at Firhill last weekend @ Jags v Fake Jags, which I attended. He booked ICT's Kerr for a perceived dive which was rescinded on appeal following a later second yellow that saw him red-carded. I'll let you draw your own conclusion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I completely agree he is not our best midfielder tbh, I would say though imo he's most important to how we play. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gannonball Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 That 'foul' looks even worse on sportscene, VAR was speeding play up for the interception then slowing it down for the contact on the player, you can't blame Beaton really for that though as all he was really shown was the contact bizarrely. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry for expressing an opinion. Very good player but 100% not the best. As much as it hurts Celtic fans, he’s replaceable, depending on how Scotland plan to play Midfield is Scotlands strong point and if any Celtic fans disagree Juventus and AC Milan would like a word. Is Cal Mac on the radar of either of these clubs? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dons_1988 Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 Fucksake lads. It sounds like you actually played out an entertaining game of football in a pivotal moment in the season and all you can talk about is refs and VAR. So unbelievably dull. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any contact is minimal and happens after Silva is already going to ground. Certainly not enough to warrant a foul. Also worth highlighting that Johnston clearly withdraws his foot in an attempt to avoid contact (he still does make contact despite that though). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That i can understand, the interception is clearly obvious, you see the ball moving differently, theres no debate on that The debate on the contact is likely why it's slowed down, the ref has to be sure there's contact or not, and using slow motion is obviously better for that The only time slow motion really distorts VAR is when a ref is asked about a tackle possibly being a straight red card id say 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The question is did the contact impede him and well….you know my thought on that Edited April 7 by Jinky67 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
