Good stuff.

Be interesting to see the rationale behind the Decision that everything Morelos done was fine

I know people have a soft spot for Celtic on here, but they have some nerve. If the officials and SFA did everything properly, then Scott Brown would forever be getting pulled up.

***Keith_M*** · 04-01-2019 04:15 PM

Will they be raising the same concerns the next time Scott Brown tries to cripple an opposition player and still doesn't get a red card?

Do they? I don’t.

I agree with your Scott Brown point though.

We certainly don't.

It's only a couple of crazies that claim it to be true.

The SFA will only answer to Celtic though and the rest of us. We’d all like to know and it would be the same if it was Celtic and huns where asking. They need accountability for this, Morelos getting off when it would have given Killie a huge advantage in their next match is hugely unfair.

**SideBurns** · 04-01-2019 04:21 PM

If this was about one dubious decision you could perhaps accuse Celtic of having a brass neck, but if Beaton is saying he witnessed all those incidents involving Morelos but didn't think any warranted action then it is tantamount to an admission of bias.

Any one of them could've been a red card in isolation. Celtic's statement was inevitable and justifiable.

**BegbieHSC** · 04-01-2019 04:34 PM

Good on them! About time the SFA were formally called out.

Refereeing standards in this country are shambolic. I can call 2 games last season that we did not win, as a direct result of bad officiating.

How the **** can it be right and fair that Morelos got sent off against Aberdeen that the ref seen and decided it was a sending off? Yet the ref decided 3 where okay and you can’t look at them again? Makes no sense at all.

Exactly. And what about the killy boy that got mccann the sack, never a red. They make it up as they go along.

Yes. There’s clearly something not right about it. I wonder if the SFA will toss Beaton into the flames to deflect and avoid too many questions.

**murray26** · 04-01-2019 04:47 PM

Beaton on co. Were horrendous against Celtic at ibrox to suggest different or play the old soft spot for Celtic card is just burying your head in the sand, can’t see anything getting done about it as the SFA are determined to see the bigots return to the top.

Don’t see the need for whataboutery on this one. Time this issue was addressed properly. Two of the match officials were former season ticket holders at Ibrox and photos have emerged of the referee at a Bellshill Loyal pub after the game. We should have the same system as in England where referees are not allowed to officiate games where their team is involved.
Even if there were not 3/5 incidents in the game where Morelos could have been carded no official should be put in charge of games where he maybe susceptible to bias.
This plus a disciplinary system that has no consistency or a wilingness to be transparent has created a situation where the majority of Scottish supporters have no faith in the SFA or the referees association.
Aberdeen have asked for an investigation and I would love Hibs to step up to the mark.

**Lago** · 04-01-2019 04:50 PM

Quite right too. It pains me to say it but they are the only club to challenge rangers/SPFL/SFA. The rest of us hide under the duvet.

Sir Roderick of petrie will just tell them to 'move on' and accept certain levels of cheating

Yeah but he's got his eye on the ultimate prize of being top SFA dog.

***Hermit Crab*** · 04-01-2019 04:59 PM

Always cheated, never defeated. The same goes for those hun pricks as well.

lots of laughs, our club couldn't even stick up for one of it's employees receiving vile sectarian abuse in recent months, no one at board level of our club will be rocking any boats

***NORTHERNHIBBY*** · 04-01-2019 04:59 PM

Getting the excuses in early. It was someone else's fault. Now what was the question?

True unfortunately.

**emerald green** · 04-01-2019 05:23 PM

The Celtic statement is correct. I have no soft spot for them, just to be clear.

In a parallel universe it would be nice to think that we could deal with the issues facing Scottish football one at a time. Otherwise we go round the whataboutery merrigoround. Gotta start somewhere
