Motherwell v Celtic 13/05/2026

I see the fan group, that owns Hearts, has issued a statement about refereeing standards. The Society should do the same.

SFA need to get some outside help to improve our officiating (on field and VAR) the monthly VAR review should be renamed what it actually is

“It’s only an excuse”

pretty damning reflection on our standard of officials when we have zero representation at the World Cup. 😳

if we have already Solicited help from another country then we are Fkd. 
 

just to add that I am trying to be objective in my views, I still don’t know how Hearts didnt get a penalty for Longelo’s “arm” ball in our box.

Between “talking” about this and a big mug of coffee, I’m sure my blood pressure is thru the roof. 
Time for a walk !!

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.

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.

Hung off from posting last night as I was way too angry about what transpired at the end of the game.

Regardless of our thoughts on the matter, it doesnt really change anything.

Hibs last minute winner means we need to go to Easter Road and get something. Given we have won 1 and drawn 2 against them this season and now have an injustice to fire the belly, we should embrace that situation.

Re last nights game. I really despair about any Motherwell fan who watched that last night and is anything other than proud of our performance.

Many Motherwell teams in the past have utterly capitulated to Celtic. But we went toe to toe with them for 90 minutes and were the better team by every metric, other than the one that actually counts.

It was a great performance and, but for a bit more quality/composure in the final third, we might have won that game.

There is a real feel good factor about Fir Park right now. Three stands up singing and bouncing in a game against one of the ugly sisters is a rare thing indeed.

Finally, to address the issue of our record against the top 6. It is true that we have only won 3 out of 19. But we have also drawn 8. So in 11/19 games the top 6 couldnt beat us either and of the games we did lose only Hearts beat us by more than 1 goal and our performances have been more than decent.

We should embrace these times and use the injustice we all feel about the season as a whole to fuel us going forward.

Everyone to Easter Road......

 

Absolutely agree with everything you said.

And it looks like everyone's going: 2 seats remaining. 

Edit: Sold out now.

The team deserve a sold out backing!!!

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).
