Lennon Miller might aswell retire from international selection the now probably won't get a fair crack while Clarke is in charge I will be shocked if he picked him. If Fletcher goes before him and a few others its nothing but a disgrace tbh.

I have looked at the images multiple times, video and stills, and tried to be as impartial as I can be. At the end of the games that night it didn't make any difference to what we needed to do at Easter Road after the Hibs result at Ibrox, but I can't for the life of me see how they can be so definitive with those images. Willie Collum: "for us there is clear evidence", "in our opinion this is clear" "VAR, AVAR and referee are the important people here". Andrew Dallas: "definitely hits his arm" Seems to me they are basically saying it doesn't matter that most people, other than Celtic or Hibs fans, can't say one way or another whether the ball definitely makes contact with Sam Nicholson's hand/arm it's what we think that counts. For me they are seeing, or say they are seeing, something most other people can't. Most people can't see ghosts either.👻

Anything is possible during the summer. Reality doesn't kick in until September.

I reckon thats a deflection tactic...change the narrative to tje unruly fans.

One point that really gets my goat is context of what's happening around a player is completely ignored. For example with Nicholson, there's no aknowledgement that the Celtic player nudging him could result in him handling the ball and completely ignoring the fact that he must have in part used his head to project the ball 20 yards out the park. Similar with Longelo- because it hit his upper arm he's ok - what about the player pushing him into the position. Putting any MFC bias to the side what is clear that a) we don't have technology and b) we don't have professionals who understand the context. For me there's no question the game is much worse for VAR and needs binned.

Most people think that about them but the SFA is a cosy wee corrupt clique that thinks its untouchable and can do no wrong, their sense of entitlement and the "we are never wrong" attitude is unbelievable.

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 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.
