What gets me and has done for some time is players harranging refs. It seems now EVERY decision is questioned and managers have admitted to telling players to continually question decisions.
If I was the ref I would tell the 3/4/5 players who surround me that they have 5 seconds to retreat or they will be booked. Only the captain should be allowed to inquire why a particular decision was given.

Is it true the Rangers fans ordered 2 Millers and a bitter Lennon last Sunday night?

Think most fans quite happy if it is players in their our own team though - remember the "He dived and we know he dived" chant when Darren Jackson won a last minute penalty at Parkhead in 1995-96 - which incidentally could have been a factor in Celtic losing league that season.
Though do not remember Celtic as a club (Burns manager then) getting so worked up about it.

Take our last game v St J. Had 4 or 5 Hibs players piled into the ref and made a scene after Alton's assault, chances are the ref would have reacted and sent the guy off just to defuse the situation. As it is, few Hibs players reacted and SJM made a lot less of the tackle than many would have. That allowed the ref to play the whole thing down and cover up the assault with a yellow.

And I agree, searching for and rekindling the thread was a strange thing for BH to do.
I'm looking forward to hearing what Marinello has to say about it, though.

I’m very impressed I never made a drunken contribution to this, but what is more impressive is the OP’s premonition 😂

I'm going to lock this thread.
I linked it in the thread about Beaton as an illustration of the different perceptions of the refs strike then and now and how our view changes based on what side of the fence we are on.
It's not fair that a snapshot in time gets dragged up without context. I still think my point stands that the viewpoint from then and now has changed massively but I suppose that isn't unique to this topic.PM Awards General Poster of The Year 2015, 2016, 2017. Probably robbed in other years
