Big Stall Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago Reality is we went to Celtic park to a team whose budget is astronomical compared to us. We dominated possesion but couldnt make it count. The game swung on the pen/red as we were 100% in it to that point & to be honest even after it until the third went in. Was it a pen - probably yes. Bit double jepordy to get the red. Chamberlain should also have been off. Disapointing yes, but we were neither humped nor humbled. Get back on the wins next week & close out the season strong. 3rd is still available if others fuck up which they will..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

twistandshout1983 Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago Now that we are officially out of any title race, and despite Hearts being 1-0 down I make no apologies for saying I hope Hearts win Stopping either of those two Glasgow mobs winning this league will be a relief to most and hilarious, and as Billy Connolly once said a refreshing change Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, I get the reasoning behind it. Arguably, we're the best footballing team in Scotland. However, we failed to reach 2 cup finals and will finish 4th or 5th. There's a disconnect straight away. The bottom line is that too often we fail to turn quality possession into goals. To put that in context, we are very much work in progress and everyone knows that we need to improve for next season. We, the fans, just need to reduce the hype and expectations for now and stay grounded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shots 13 to 12 for Celtic. 6 to 3 for Celtic shits on target. I thought we were the better team first half and after 15 mins of second half we got passed Celtic being on top and had started to regain control before the red card threw us for a loop. Of course, issues to work on but still a lot to like about our team. I’m expecting us to roar back the next few weeks at home. Wimmer talked about shoots on target but you have took it to a new level 🤣🤣. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just amazing how quickly some have forgotten the absolute dross we've watched under previous managers compared to this season. I'm not getting hyped I'm just happy to see the team play football the way it should be played and to great effect most weeks. Christ, we've earned it. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andy H Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Rugby lead the way on how to use VAR. We need to be taking lessons from them on how to do it properly. I love the fact the refs broadcast the discussion to the stadium so everyone knows what is happening. I think if our VAR did that there would be riots Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for his actual competence as a ref, he made 4 huge calls in our games at Pittodrie and Parkhead, and VAR 'corrected' 3 of his clear and obvious errors.

Yes, seems to me he's simply assuming the mantle of the likes of Craig Thomson, who really seemed to have it in for us. The OF play referees like violins with their constant complaints and it works. Tough Gove for the rest of us....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy Dosser Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Just seen the foul by Chelsea's James on the Newcastle number 12 in tonight's match, which went completely unpunished. The game's in a real mess over penalty box jostling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robsterwood Posted 56 minutes ago Report Share Posted 56 minutes ago Scottish referees worst in Europe. Watched Newcastle Barca game and various times player had 2 hands on players in box and not even yellow card. Var ruining our title bid due to dud referees. Cheating beating. Nearly every time they have to look at var screen they give the decision. Absolute Muppets. Need to get rid of them all and get ones from England.

AllyMax Posted 10 minutes ago Report Share Posted 10 minutes ago With hearts losing today, just watch as Celtic and Rangers both start to get 'narrow' wins involving penalties and winners in the 100th minute. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
