First point - it’s absolutely, unequivocally, in no way a penalty.

Second point - it 100% would have been given at the other end.

The referee’s instinct is to give the benefit of the doubt to them and against us, with VAR used to scrape together some sort of justification for the decision.

I disagree. It is undoubtedly a penalty - Marcondes was obstructed by a player who had no chance of playing the ball - that's a foul and in the box it's a penalty. Much more so than the Obita one that's on the next clip where obstruction is minimal.

If nothing else the mindset of referees and the authorities is ruining Scottish football. They must be stopped for our game to survive.

He goes down easy but dont agree with the no way a penalty assertion

Goldson impedes him. I think thats a foul.

Remember Rocky on Colak last year? Colak made an even bigger meal of things than Marcondes did and got the pen, which backs up most of your post.

This is where I’m at. Never a pen but they’d get it.

I tend to apply the Colak penalty they got last year for absolutely nothing as a test of what is/isn’t a pen.

[Callum_62]

Defender wrong side contact made

Obviously only works one way

The ref gives that that's at the other end and var uses seeing contact as justification

Absolutely guaranteed

Goldsons arm is much more contact than Obitas on sterling

And the pundits lined up to justify the colak penalty too

Absolutely madness

The Colak test applies here, remember Rocky “gave he referee a decision to make” and was “clumsy” etc? Pundits were clear it was a penalty then, so surely this is as well?

Does anyone have footage of the moment immediately after the footage finished? I’m sure Goldson tried pulling Marcondes up before pushing him down again. Ball is in play in the keeper’s possession, if Emiliano isn’t wanting pulled up then it surely has to be a foul?

Here is the Colak "penalty" from last year:

[Callum_62]

It's fine though, these are all calls that are totally above board and made with the greatest integrity

Mind that time Newell got kicked in the head at Ibrox? . Or David Bates playing basketball at Easter Road

All easy ones to miss and go in favour 100% to one team

For those saying it would get given at the other end, it DID get given at the other end, last night and at the derby.

Colak one is one of the most ridiculous penalties ever given. Colum wasn't it.

That was ridiculous for ex players to say that was a pen. Utter nonsense

[500miles]

You grab like that at a corner, it's a pen and there's not even an argument.

[Carheenlea]

If one’s a penalty, then so is the other.

I wouldn’t be giving either, but going by what referees are awarding some clubs the Marcondes claim has to 100% be awarded on a level playing field.

[Callum_62]

Whoever said Marcondes was lucky he didn't get booked for diving couldn't have seen it back

There's genuinely more meaningful contact from Goldson than there is by Obita

Can remember not that long ago Porto scoring a perfectly good goal at Ibrox and it being ruled out for eh no reason.

[yerauldda]

Goldson then threw him to the ground again straight after.

It's mad eh?

The more you think about examples the more obvious the bias is.

1979 cup final?

McCoist diving in the box on Souness debut at Easter Road and getting a pen.

McCoist punching Mark Fulton on the side of his head from behind and getting nothing. Saying that it was hectic few minutes.

More of a penalty than the one against us and when he ended up crashed into the keeper it looks like hand ball to me too

[LaMotta]

For anyone still not persuaded that should be a foul on Marcondes last night, here's a wee reminder of a penalty awarded to Rangers at Livvy this season by the same Ref and VAR officials, Mclean and Kirkland

We’re all goosed.
I was all for var but its being used in the wrong hands.
The same bias will always be.
We must parachute sevco into the championship etc

To be fair it must be really hard for three officials on the park and for the VAR team, watching from 4 different angles, to see whether that's a dive or not. (signed Richard Gordon and the sportsound team.)

That's still the one I think is a penalty. If you grab a player, pick him up then launch him to the ground, I don't know how VAR could look at that and think there was any reasonable doubt a player had committed an offence.

I obviously do know why, but I'm trying to look at it objectively. You could probably compare it to the Rocky/Colak one for infringements that don't really impact the game but still apparently constitute some sort of offence for one team but not another.
