Rather a good summary of this shameful episode. There are oft-repeated claims that Beaton was targeted by some Celtic fans after negative comments by Brendan Rogers on his decisions, and that his house was damaged and both he and his wife were threatened. If that is the case, why is he given Celtic games to referee? Celtic fans have flooded social media with derisive whitabootery to deflect from the shitstorm while most other commentators have expressed disbelief, including many furth of Scotland with no dogs in the race, like the normally dismissive English commentators on Talk Sport, some of whom have spoken glowingly of Motherwell's football, e.g. Agbonlahor. My prediction is that the SFA will circle the wagons as usual and jive-talk their way round the controversy until the season ends and that Hearts will avoid defeat on Saturday while we smite the Leithers mightily. Oh, and JBA will get out of Scotland ASAP. He surely must realise the toxicity of the whole OF thing. Very proud to be a 'Well fan.

As i have said to sellik workmates and mates in general. If that was awarded for the well last night you would have been feckin raging

Not a suprising reaction today in the scottish media about the penalty. Those of a celtic leaning and bitter Hibby fans think it was a penalty. Everyone else saying its a joke. The against arguement has been hijacked by Rangers fans. Hypocrites! Those two clubs have colluded to bring us to this decay in our game. We also have the media stirring the pot to try and create even more content in their pursuit of attention for themselves. Meanwhile nothing is being said from the authorities. Year on year Scottish footballs standards on the whole spiralls downwards and without proper leadership and accountability our game will remain in the gutter. The cycle could have been broken this year but those in charge dont obviously like change. Scotlands shame continues.

I never watch it tbh, but I'd be surprised if he admits any wrong decisions awarded in favour of the OF that wins them games.

Dont expect the well society to comment about the Celtic support when one of their top men is very friendly with the green brigade.

I am still hoping Jens sees unfinished business with us and with backing with board can bring in some quality, plenty to gain.....nothing toulouse Sorry folks 🤪🤪🤪

The silver lining from last nights crazy decision is the amount of pundits from England and beyond that I've heard talking about how great a footballing team Motherwell are. I know there's been lots of plaudits within Scotland but I can't help but feel another level of pride when it's far reaching. A real credit to Jens everyone at the club. Additionally now there's broader questions being asked about OF favouritism - that's not something we could have ever generated had it not been for the impact this has on the final game. Finally come Saturday and I appreciate this will benefit Hearts but I can't realistically see any dodgy decisions being given in favour of Celtic - simply too much scrutiny.

🤣😂🤣

Every VAR review ive watched there is at least one descision that Gollum admits was wrong, pen/ no pen, red card/ yellow card etc. So they freely admit they get it wrong, but take no responsibility for their actions, and the is no sign of any changes or improvement.

My guess is the VAR review show will be cancelled. If Collum says it wasn't a penalty, then he's admitting a terrible decision has impacted the title race, and if he says it was a penalty, he makes himself and the SFA a corrupt looking laughing stock.

It's the song that is sung at games now, no idea who started it, think well Bois created it. I love it ( see...I do give the Bois praise) I prefer it to the thunderclap

Lead story on the STV news, the "penalty" desicion from last night, worlwide condemnation, ridicule, worst var judgement ever etc. There was a token celtic fan who said it was a stonewalller, oh and o'Neil says he could not see it clearly.. Twitter full of fake AI images to confirm it was a pen, no doubt Collum will use them in the VAR review.

Its strange that after the pitch invasion by Celtic fans and their celebation with their club's employees, that no party has been moved to comment. Not MFC, not the Society, not the SPFL or SFA, not the Police and not Celtic FC. All being swept under the carpet? Its a sad reflection of events that almost all the widespread discussion has been about matters other than the football.

What a feckin 24 hours I am having. Still raging about last night and then just waited 35 mins on a bus from Glasgow to get home from work. jeez I need a pint!

What is the “stand up and sing for Motherwell”?I have seen it mentioned several times lately but have no clue what it is. 🙁

Still f**king beeling after last night. I've usually calmed down the day after a bad decision, but not this time. Strange since it doesnt affect what we need to do on saturday, but ruins what would have been a fantastic night for us and scottish football in general. I've never been one for accusing scottish officials of corruption. Bias, incompetence and social pressure influencing decisions in favour of the bigger teams, yes. But not corruption. Last nights VAR decision, there is no defence. Corruption, clear as day for all to see (except those clowns who choose not to).

Hope the team wear it again at the weekend so that it isn't just remembered for 'that game'.

I think jens will have seen enough about that rancid club last night to steer well clear of them.

SOD, Johnny K and Tom Sparrow were all immense, but I went for Fadinger who was just everywhere. Showed how much we miss him when he isnt there (or wearing a face mask!).

To inject some positivity into the discussion we have sold 2k tickets for this, so the away end will be sizeable and noisy. A fitting end to an incredible season. I hope we get at least the point we deserve for all our efforts this season, but even if we dont, the squad deserve the proper send off they were denied last night, especially with a few of them definitely away in the summer, Slatts in particular. Once more, "Stand Up And Sing For Motherwell!"

South of France or East End of Glasgow? Mmmmm let me think about that one🤔

The team deserve a sold out backing!!! COYW

Absolutely agree with everything you said. And it looks like everyone's going: 2 seats remaining. Edit: Sold out now.

Every club needs to take every opportunity to call out this nonsense Dave as and when it happens, sitting back and complaining about Var, poor referees, perceived bias etc, etc but doing nothing about it, will change nothing. The SFA sre shit scared to upset either of the ugly sisters, as are the Scottish football media so change wont happen overnight, but it has to start somewhere.

Also i want to add at this stage they can show any stills they want the key to it all its not 100 percent conclusive in anyone of them so Beaton and co gave that penalty on the grounds it looks like or might be.
