If that’s a penalty for hearts we should have had ours yesterday and after we scored it allowed another to make it 2-0.

[expresso]

So Rangers get a penalty for what we didn’t get yesterday. The fourth official basically celebrated with the rangers manger for their second.

That’s where we are. It’s a disgrace what can we do about this????

Also Rangers would never have had that goal disallowed for offside

Aye its definitely being sung loud and clear, agree that it's not been heard for many a year though I do think it got an airing at Easter Road last season. It's a given that there will be loads of praise for a wonderful atmosphere but no mention of the actual bile they are coming out with.

Totally agree mate, sickens me that we didn’t challenge yesterdays decisions more forcibly. We’ve got terrible biased officials in this country and it needs called out at every opportunity.

I agree with your comments and those from Hendo.
They did the whole lot today.
Pulled out some we have not heard for a long time.
And i heard them all in my younger days.
I guess it was 2 fingers to the Dundee FC statement and the rest of us that they dont care.

If these "songs" were referring to Muslims, Jews or Blacks,there is no doubt questions would be rightly raised in the highest political offices of the land here and London and some action taken.
But its songs of abuse aimed at the Irish and Catholics, so thats alright/
Cavemen, and bigots who have never likely set foot in a church bar a wedding or funeral.
They have Catholics in their squad(and have had for years),yet the came out with the
"No holy water in the cup" chant from the past.

I really wish Hearts had beat them today.
And hope the Dons can make it a Merry Christmas for those of us who despise this vile mob.

Cannae stand them any other day of the week but today I say well done Rangers. Another couple of goals would have been nice but it's job done in keeping the yams out of the final.

On yesterday's evidence Rangers will batter the sheep in the final.

[B.H.F.C]

If it’s offside it’s offside but there are things that should be explained like why the line was drawn from Boyle’s elbow. And I happen to think it was a penalty, especially when you look at the two given today. Based on that, it’s unbelievable that ours didn’t even merit the VAR looking at it.

I think it’s a var thing. The **** penalty was awarded so they get involved and the hearts player was shown a red so again they got involved. If the ref hadn’t booked the boy I don’t think it would have been looked at and awarded.
I think that’s how it works anyway. Ours wasn’t given and it supposedly wasn’t a clear and obvious error. They need to look at Var gur bith potential penalties as well as ones given in the filed of play. Football also needs to look at the laws of the offside decision and simplify what part of the body being off constitutes it. I think it should just be if your foot is off the player is off.

I don’t think they’d have got involved for a second yellow leading to a red. It would have been looking at potential penalty, and then rescinding the yellow on the back of it being given.

Was no need for them to get involved in the Rangers penalty. But it wasn’t dissimilar to ours and I think they should have, at the very least, looked at ours. To me, the one I thought we have should have been considered a clear and obvious error but as ever different people will have different interpretations. I honestly wish they’d just stick VAR in the bin.

Don't. It's too soon...

Lucky. Very lucky.

[Mcbizz1998]

Unlucky Spurs. Good on them for having a go. They will end up a lot higher in the table than this Chelsea team you would think.

[LewysGot2]

4-1

[HoboHarry]

Will be interesting to see how this affects Spurs in the coming weeks. The center back is out for a while I'd imagine and Maddison hurt too as well as two suspended. Like us really they have no strength in depth.

[Stairway 2 7]

Spurs City in 3 games will be good, could be a bit of a gap if City win that

[Mcbizz1998]

Ange interview after the game was decent. Saying they would have a crack even if they were down to 5 men. Good on him, wish more managers had that mentality.

It was. He’s refreshing and, now he’s away from Celtic, I can properly enjoy him and his football! He’ll be making it very easy for Spurs fans to get right behind him and his style right now.

Happens to hold the same views as me on VAR too!

[Mcbizz1998]

That’s one way of looking at it. The other is that Dier goal could have stood or either of Bentancur or Son chances go in and Spurs nick a point, Ange is a genius. If anyone was lucky tonight it was Chelsea.

Incredible turn around at a club like spurs who lost a world class player in the summer of that we can agree. Just think the tactics were a bit stubborn tonight.

VAR should only be used for goal line decisions and automated system used in the Champions League for offside.

It gets involved in decisions it shouldnt.

Yes offside and goal line technology. It’s just a farce now, puts me off watching the games.

[Iain G]

VAR should only be used for goal line decisions and automated system used in the Champions League for offside.

It's really now starting to kill the flow and enjoyment of what is a simple game. All the changes in rules for offside and the likes have made it more complicated to referee and VAR now seems to make as many errors as the officials on the pitch.

Needs stripped back as you say. Or limit the number of VAR calls a team can ask for during a game on anything outside the penalty box.?

[J-C]

VAR should only be used for goal line decisions and automated system used in the Champions League for offside.

VAR should only be used when the ref wants to verify a decision similar to rugby or in a case of serious foul play the ref has missed. Offside was one if the main reasons it was brought in with goal line technology, its overstepping its role now, meant to help refs not do the reffing for them.

It's creating lazy officials on the park, too.

All of them safe in the knowledge they can be bailed out by their pals in the office.

Athletico Madrid tonight is a lose-lose for neutrals with a natural hatred for the Ugly Sisters. A Celtic win would be disappointing to say the least and a Celtic defeat would be ecstasy for the currant buns. On balance, for me, a Celtic win is preferable.

Absolutely pathetic from Callum McGregor the most overrated player in Scottish footballing history. Hartson stops short of criticising him though.

That’s never a red card for Maeda

[Scorrie]

I really don’t like VAR. slow every foul down and they always look worse. I didn’t think that was a red for Maeda

[greenlex]

Ridiculous red card decision there. It’s barely a yellow.

[greenlex]

😂😂😂

[Since90+2]

[Donegal Hibby]

Thought that was harsh , yellow would have been enough of a punishment imo .

[LaMotta]

These days you are lucky to get away with a tackle like that. Maeda is a bit over exuberant at times when there is no real need to be ( e.g. Easter Road in May).

[HibbyAndy]

VAR getting involved yet again when it doesn’t need to. No a red that.

It’s a soft red but you can’t go in with your studs showing like that.

[greenlex]

I’m not even sure it’s a tackle to be honest. He’s just trying to block the ball. If anything the Madrid boy kicks him. It’s more a coming together.

[B.H.F.C]

The game at ER when he got sent off, I’m positive he was trying to get sent off. He’d had about 4 fouls after he’d been booked and then just ran in and kicked Fish. He either had a bet in or just couldn’t be bothered playing.

[DaveF]

The officials don't seem to look at these incidents with any context. The Madrid dude is kicking through the ball and it's his exaggerated follow through that catches Maeda - all he is doing is dangling a foot trying to block the ball.

A nonsense decision.

[Tyler Durden]

John Hartson thinks you can stud someone in the shin as long as it’s not malicious. Guys a clown

[Trinity Hibee]

He dangles a foot. Never a red card.

How a VAR official gets to overrule a referee who gave a yellow is beyond me. Ange said it well, ref has no authority now. What’s the point on even having one nowadays.

Freeze framing also shouldn’t be a thing. Just makes it look worse

[hibee_girl]

He’d have been the first calling for a red if it was on a Celtic player

https://twitter.com/TransferSector/status/1721987427919667322

He's late and catches the boy studs up half way up his shin. I think these days that's always going to be a red.

Aye really. His leg is stretched almost sideways not going straight in. The Madrid boy is the one going in with most force there.

Seconded :greengrin

Thirded

[HoboHarry]

In the modern era that's a red every day of the week. Doesn't mean I agree that it should be but that's how the rules have evolved.

[Billy Whizz]

As it stands we are one point off the bottom of the League. Although the league is so congested, we need to to start winning games back to back

[blackpoolhibs]

I'm watching Martin Lewis so i've not seen the sending off incident, but from here on the sofa in Blackpool i think it's a stonewaller of a decision, clear as day it's a sending off.

[LaMotta]

I don’t think we could go up to 4th but that’s splitting hairs. Realistically we’re a weak bottom 6 team and could lose more games than we win. The winter window and how Monty strengthens the team is vital. Given our resources, it would be unthinkable if we are staring at relegation in the last quarter of the season.

Don’t get the we could lose more than we win summary. We’ve drawn a few for sure but in each of them have been either up in the games or played well and certainly no one could have complained if we had all three points in them. I think we are more likely to be top six than bottom even if not pushing for third.

[B.H.F.C]

Kettlewell might be the next to go. Motherwell look to have fallen to bits lately.

I'd be kinda ****ing delighted if Livingston went down, in all honesty.

You’re correct, we have been ‘up or or okayed well’ in several games but as the season progresses these sort of scenarios will put much more pressure on the team and Montgomery, and I just hope we can strengthen the team to cope with what’s ahead.

We've lost more than we've won for the last two seasons.

In a league of this standard that's unacceptable, especially so given our outlay.
