Sam Nicholson has one strong hand to punch it 20 yards!

The Asst VAR questioned if it was a clear handball also. Its similar to the Just tackle at Parkhead where VAR is giving leading statements and when the ref raises concerns to them, they are batted down.

Yes and even at that, his hand is within his body shape and is only there because it was pushed up through contact with the Celtic player so it could not be a penalty anyway. Och, why do we bother? The referees make it up to suit their agenda and it's getting more and more blatant. I'll renew my ST to see The 'Well as usual but I'm even more certain now that, when push comes to shove, our game is rigged.

I switched it off...I cannae listen to the clown

No acountabillity, or responsibillity, made up shite to justify their incorrect decisions week after week and nothing ever gets done, its embarrassing, no wonder Scottish football is seen as a joke.

I was thinking exactly that. Would be a great move for him, and Toulouse could not doubt afford his wages.

Not just that but Collum saying that its a pen because his hand is in an unnatural position even before contact with the Celtic player, but if it stayed there it wouldn't have hit his hand then would it? It's only the contact that changes where the hand is to then hit the ball. Honestly man can physically see him doing mental gymnastics on the spot to try justify that.

It is time for Collum to be removed from head of referees. The guy just craves attention and only continues to contradict and cause confusion. He offers no leadership and accountability. Its time the clubs acted to remove him.

It is clear from that that Beaton simply erred on the side of caution and gave the decision in Celtic’s favour. As I said, that tells us nothing that wasn’t already obvious. Beaton is compromised by Celtic and is scared to go against them given past experiences when he has. There was nothing “clear and obvious” about that incident yet VAR thought it was enough to intervene and Beaton obviously had made his mind up to award the penalty as soon as he got the shout, hence the almost immediate awarding of the penalty. Like I said, the whole thing stinks.

I got the impression that Welsh enjoyed playing for Askou. Although he was clearly fully committed to Motherwell I'm not so sure he would want to return now that Askou is away. Would not surprise me if Welsh ended up in Toulouse

Having watched the var replay, Beaton clearly still doubted whether it was a hand ball. So not clear and obvious to him by any means. Again Collum making it up to fit the outcome. He contradicts himself time after time. Another joke was Collum standing by the decision to allow the Newell goal. That is as clear and obvious error as you will see. Even Newell was laughing at it standing. Oh, and apparently leaving the ground to launch a two footed tackle which catches the shin is only a yellow card. Must bear that in mind for next season. But really, did we expect anything else.

Just seen the video with var audio, Beaton literally asking VAR to tell him what to see, "does it definitely hit the hand?"

I thought Welsh was excellent last season, but if we can't afford him, there are other football playing central defenders out there. Just not a market we have explored during the Craigan/Hartley years.

He’s hasn’t got a chance of playing for Celtic next season who will probably be looking to offload him so they should be willing to let him go for nothing or run the risk of paying him to train with them for a year but knowing that lot they’ll probably ask for funny money for him.

Welsh is class, well worth pushing the boat out for.

While it would be hilarious if Martin was appointed and improved on JBA, that will have to be a pass from me.

I saw that article, they had scott broon and steven naismith in it too. Also Russell Martin, that was almost ok after seeing broon.....again quoted.

Falkirk toon, is bigger than Motherwell toon...is that what you meant?

The big boy up front for motherwell

I know it's all conjecture but with the reported £4.5 million for LM and if we were to sell Maswanhise, Watt and Just all for £4 million each the clubs sitting on potentially £16/£17 million quid. I'd rather keep Watt and Just but think we may keep Just for one more year and sell Watt surely with that kind of cash we could attract some decent talent. Well decent for the SPFL. Should we bite the bullet and sign Welsh? He's reportedly on £6500 a week and one more year on his contract. Give him a signing on fee to cover that years wages (£340,000) and agree a wage we can live with. Anyone think we should.

"There´s also interest from Rangers, who have been monitoring the situation closely" and hoping we lower our price to 50 quid, presumably.

Oooooooft!

Now that would be a deal https://x.com/i/status/2060337377114026328

Id rather have Will Still than his brother Stan....... 😉😉😉
