At least you managed to have Motherwell losing at home to lower league opposition in your fantasy scenario.

Well considering one of those two clubs is the next one we’re playing and that same clubs fans have caused similar damage to our own stadium as they did at Ibrox the other day then I can understand it to an extent.

Utterly irrelevant whatabouttery. Another huge fame coming up for us and folk are still arguing the toss over two clubs who couldn't give a toss about any other club in Scotland.

Irrelevant whatabouttery. Only Celtic fans rushed the gates and caused significant damage to the stadium at the game on Sunday. What happened at the end of the match does not reflect well on either side but it looks worse on Celtic because it was their fans who kicked the whole thing off by invading the park and goading the home support. There was always going to be a reaction to that from the Rangers fans. Just consider this scenario. We’re playing Airdrie at home in the Cup, their fans are in the bottom tier of the South Stand. It goes to penalties, Airdrie win the shootout and immediately a number of their fans jump onto the park, kicking down advertising boards and gesturing and goading the East Stand where the Well Bois are. What do you think happens then? Do you or anyone else seriously think that none of them wouldn’t retaliate by also invading the park?? Nah, neither do I. In that scenario both clubs should also be critical of the behaviour on show. However would posters on here be largely of the opinion that while we don’t come out of it well, had Airdrie’s fans not invaded the park and goaded our fans in the first place then the entire incident wouldn’t have happened? And would they be okay with suggestions that Airdrie’s fans were only on the park in celebratory mode and our fans who then retaliated only went on with the intention of fighting and causing bother? Because I don’t think that would sit well with me.

Score draw.

Drat....I was a minute too late 🤣🤣🤣

He had a clause in his contract which Aberdeen have activated

Aberdeen's approach has triggered a clause in Robinson's contract, apparently, so they have no option but to let him talk.

Neither club deserve the lions share. The fans who participated in the pitch invasions, violence, vandalism & rushing of the gates are to blame! Saying it is the clubs fault is too easy. Its not our fault if one of our fans steals someones flag or drum. It is squarly the fault of the fan themself who commited x,y or z. Could the police have had more officers present? Yes. Is violence, vandalism & rule breaking only due to that? Of course not. It is on the individual! For me, that is why both clubs should be critical of the behaviour witnessed.

There are 2 counter arguments going on here that can be true at the same time. It is clearly very difficult for a club like ours to hold onto a good manager and good players, because as many have stated, money talks. Players and managers are ambitious so they will always want to test themselves at a higher level (and be remunerated for that). However, just because the manager and our better players will move on, doesnt mean we cant still try and build on that success. If we are smart, we move the players on when it suits us, for fees that allow us to re-invest in the squad and strengthen as a club. We also trust in the process that led us to Jens and try to find someone else who fits the same mould. Obviously, there is an element if luck attached to these things, but just as there is a cost to bad decision making (as we have seen in the past) there can be a benefit to good decision making. With the Well Society now pulling the strings at the club, we have discovered our identity, and we now have a model in place, that if done correctly, can be sustainable. Being the best version of ourselves that we can be is the ambition the club needs to show, and so far its going pretty well.....

I bet the damages bill is only a fraction of what the Rangers fans inflicted on Manchester a few years ago, both of them two cheecks of the same Arse, Scotlands ongoing shame.

Money is the only thing that matters in football, why do so many struggle to grasp this? The reality is that Robinson’s stock as a manager has never been higher. He’s won a League Cup and now a bigger club have come courting him who can and will offer him significantly more money. For St.Mirren though it would very much be a boot in the stones but fuck them. I absolutely do not want to see them winning the Scottish Cup and doing a double this season and losing Robinson now significantly lessens their chances of doing that.

Hilarious 😂 😃. Semi against a shite Celtic comming up, with the other semi between two smaller teams , what a chance St Midden have of doing a double this year.😲 Then the manager is jumping ship. Why would that buisness not get left to end of season berore any announcement. What a kick in the baws for them. Wonder how Las is taking that one.

Rumours doing the rounds that the damage down to the away end by Celtic fans is so bad that stand might not be able to be used for Rangers next home game a week on Saturday. Celtic of course have previous for this as we know only too well given they have on more than one occasion caused thousands of pounds worth of damage to the South Stand at Fir Park and they’ve done it elsewhere too. Neither side comes out of Sunday well but Celtic deserve the lions share of blame and I would imagine talks are going on between both clubs behind the scenes on footing the bill for this before any statements are released.

Tough crowd 🤣🤣

That scenario is hilarious, unlike your jokes.😂

“Suggestions”? Lol

If they haven't condemned the shocking goings on, then it makes strict liability all the easier to apply. Suggestions also of sectarianism but I don't suppose anybody is too keen to investigate that.

It's all about deflection. Stand by as official fan groups criticise the police but don't acknowledge the behaviour of those same fans inside and outside the ground. Although there is police strategy that needs looked at, their response to the fan statements is spot on regarding the silence from both Clubs. Hiding behind the fact there will be an investigation so not appropriate to comment. Really? No OF condemnation of anything the fans did. Let the spotlight focus elsewhere. Disgracefully the media mostly do their best to aid the deflection. Will we see the BBC doing a full report not only highlighting the on field carry-on but also the damage to the stadium, the storming of the turnstiles, the actions of players and officials as well as both sets of fans, the sale of tickets that ended up in the hands of fans banned from Celtic Park? The PR machine is currently in full mode so don't hold your breath. At the end of the day the Authorities will issue pointless fines and a few culprits will be charged. Away fans at OF games will be banned for a time, which will have no impact on either club financially. Why not play OF games behind closed doors until the end of next season as that would have greater impact? The excuse it was a Cup match will be used to justify no action League points wise. Threats of harsher sanctions for any repeat will be made, possibly even suspended penalties. Celtic will eventually pay for the repairs. But nothing will change.

They won’t make a statement about how rotten to the core both clubs are. Rangers: really sorry about the pitch invasion and the assaults on the police and Celtic coach and the incessant sectarian singing….. but Celtic started it. Celtic: sorry about the mini pitch invasion, the rushing of the turnstiles, the vandalism and the tagging of 66 all over Ibrox….. but Rangers started it. its just boring whataboutery all the time and anyone with a brain knows it. Dock the 2 of them points and make them play in an empty stadium for 6 months. That’ll fk them both off!! starting on Saturday please.

Both clubs have identical paranoid victim complexes, so it’s no surprise neither has publicly condemned the disgraceful behaviour of their fans. Whatever punishment the relevant authorities hand down, it won’t be enough.

My dons supporting mate not happy................."Global recruitment network" = offer the job to the guy in Paisley. 🤦‍♂️

Celtic will be surely out for revenge. We will need to start well and take our chances for us to get anything from this game.
