    Have you watched the film?
    It wasn't a film, just folk putting their long lived opinions across, that you passionately, and vocally, vehemently disagree with.

    As I said in an earlier post they could have made a 15-20 minute short film/documentary if they wanted to make a serious point but instead they made an embarrassing hour long tabloidesque piece for the hard of thinking which totally undermined any point they were trying to make.

    P.S. Here's the thing.
    In the last 60 years Celtic have won the League 33 times to Rangers 22, the Scottish Cup 24 times to Rangers 17 and the League Cup 19 times to Rangers 22.
    Those facts would suggest either an incredibly incompetent effort over the last 60 years by the all powerful conspirators and their referees against Celtic or there has been little or no conspiracy.

    Genuine question, why are you attempting to make out, that there wasn't a hierarchy, within refereeing circles? Just about every Hibernian supporter over the age of 30 knows that there has been? Why are you so passionate, on the side of, the Bob Valentine's, Craig Thompson's, Craig Napier's etc?
    Nope.

    There is no referee's conspiracy in Scottish football.

    Your critique is of the quality of the film then, not with the point they are making, which is very sound.

    Sure, bias exists, but let's focus on calling out bad decisions with evidence rather than jumping to conclusions about secret societies pulling the strings.

    and the League Cup 19 times to Rangers 22.
    Those facts and a conspiracy theory against Celtic are mutually exclusive.

    Well they really aren’t, both things can be possible at the same time if you give it a bit of logical thought.

    My local lodge had a recruitment tent at the village fair two years ago. On a boiling hot day, every family was in shorts and shades. The brothers were in blazers and ties. The youngest looked about 70 and in no shape to run about for 9 seconds let alone 90 minutes blowing a whistle.

    There's little doubt that in the days of Bobby Davidson, Tiny Wharton and the Lanarkshire Referees Association there were many Masonic referees. But the craft has been shrinking faster than Nick Montgomery's win bonus fund so any anti Celtic bias will surely also be ebbing away?

    You would think so, but if the Biscuits recruitment policy of hiring jambo pals on sportsound/open all mics etc, is evidence of no change, then who knows. When I hear at least one Hibs voice on sportsound/open all mics then I will begin to think change is afoot. We need Billionaires like Bill Foley to invest in our club and real change will happen. Money talks, Billionaires can change cultures.
