the only good thing to come out of yesterday is this, after such appalling displays by Bro. Beaton and now MADDEN, it has now clear that there are huge clouds of suspicion around them which is now more than plane to be seen. If both their efforts to help the Hun, there isn’t a snowball’s chance in hell of either of them getting any of the remaining Glasgow Derbys this year, including the semi final which carried a lot more importance than yesterdays day out
Hill was offside.
Maddens performance was what we expected , not one of us didn’t, know how it would pan out . But at the millar tackle on Armstrong , not one Celt made a meal of it , or had a word with millar .
Had Neil Lennon been playing ,he would have had more than a word . Same with holts tackle on Roberts . This team are too soft , they accepted what was being handed out . After the first five minutes ,I knew Forrest would be out the picture , it was to rough for him , same with Sinclair . No all in all it was a bad day at the office , and unless we man up , more of the same will come our way . With regards quality , we are miles in front of them , we know it ,and they know it . Hence the bullyboy tactics yesterday ., and yes I know it makes it easier for them ,with a compliant Hun ref , I still think we should be putting ourselves about more . If yesterday proved anything ,it was that BRENDAN still has some improvement s to make .

I’ve looked at it a couple of times this morning – I think he is onside.
What really annoys me, is that these cheating twats think they are as good as we are….and with a bent ref on board. They are seeing the possibilities.
Now, as we seen yesterday, all it takes, is a hun ref….and things can quickly be evened up.
If i was a Celtic player this morning….Id be very angry.
Are we really going to let these hun cheats, cheat us out of a treble?
Id expect our bhoys to rip them a new one in the semi…..im looking for a reaction.
I expect Brendan wont be happy.
Ive seen this picture too many times now, they have always needed to cheat to beat us.
Sad, sick bigots.

Just seen penalty incident again. On the replays after the contact you can see Madden in the background slightly out of focus but clear enough. His hand with the whistle goes towards his mouth, then he changes his mind. His first thought was PEN, then he remembered who he was.
THE GREEN MAN SAYS SACK THE BOARD
Are we really going to let these hun cheats, cheat us out of a treble?
——————————
Maybe. They will have a damn good try anyway.
The good thing about yesterday is that the their hubris is back. As you say, they think they are as good as us. They will genuinely go into the semi final expecting to win. And with the right choice of referee, who can blame them?

……… If both their efforts to help the Hun, there isn’t a snowball’s chance in hell of either of them getting any of the remaining Glasgow Derbys this year,

There are plenty more of them waiting to step in.
BRTH
That looks like good value. Really looking forward to a good Celtic night.

Can anyone confirm the assistant referee flagged for a penalty as John James is claiming?
Davidopoulos
Yeah….they are celebrating a scabby draw, 30 odd points behind.
Surely the most stupid fans in football.
If we allow them to cheat us…They will. Its as simple as that.
If the PLC continued to ignore it….It wont go away, it will get far worse.
It sickens me so much, that i just dont bother going now….had enough of it.

Nothing will be done about it.

Just watched it again, linesman kept his flag down, he was out of shot for a second then came back into view, flag down.
Unbeaten run continues…. 11 v 14 …
Cmon the hoops!! Thats the message we all should carry with us. One point and they go wild, they know the big picture,we are here to master them.
Davidopoulos
Sadly my friend, thats the only certainty….that it will continue unchallenged.
However…im glad ive managed to restrain myself from paying to see my team cheated, over and over again….like a broken record.
Makes me sick to my stomach.
Its not football….just rampant dishonesty.

5 mins 32 secs, Madhun gives pen, striking similarity.

Quite sobering.

How do you know nothing will be done about it ?
You don’t even support the team yet you seem to know so much ?
Just because the daily record or the sky sports news folks don’t tell you stuff does not mean nothing is being done about it.
So what’s new, I was at Hamdump for the 1970 cup final, disgraceful cheating then, disgraceful cheating now.

Not all of us knew how it would pan out.
On the last article, a couple of posters hinted that he was not the worst.
One criticised John James’ very prescient post about Midden, and suggested that as an ambitious pro he would be aware that the ‘world was watching”, and would not want to “embarrass himself”.
The problem is, he’s not worried about the world watching,only his bosses and a certain demographic in Scotland.

The official signal for an assistant referee to indicate a penalty kick is to raise the flag for the foul and immediately move to the corner flag. (Flag across chest is NOT a recognised signal By FIFA)
Haven’t seen a reply of the incident that shows that angle, but regardless, it was a definite penalty. Touching the ball at any stage of a foul challenge (as in Law 12) does not prevent that award of a direct free kick or penalty.
BRTH @ 9.50…appetising menu for the vegans…bread, olives and black coffee…mmmm! :-)

Nothing will be said by the PLC….and the cheating will continue, as per usual.
Im not paying to be cheated…you can if you like.

‘I dont even support the team’
I suppose 40 years watching Celtic home and away doesnt count eh
Aye Pedro the biggest support in the world, they are that big ,that none of the millions could save them from liquidation,bunch of chancers,who have survived,by Corruption, through the years,
As frustrated as everyone about yesterday. Especially the performance of Madden in allowing such over aggressive play to go unchecked.
Blatant penalties
Career threatening attempts at assault on celtic players
Subtle free kicks given such as the one leading the their goal
Blatant pushing of our striker completely unchecked at every arial challenge by Wilson
Clear attempt to intimidate our young centre back by getting in his face pre their goal
For me Madden had it all yesterday. A disgrace of a performance which I am confident will be highlighted in the right way over the coming weeks.
Our manager is surely too clever to leave it as just about a bad penalty call. I am sure he will feel a bit chastened and will use the evidence well in the weeks ahead.
The physicality of the past few weeks from Rangers is an interesting feature. A Change from Warburton style. I wonder where the influence has come from ?
This will win them more but it won’t be a panacea I am sure.

Lol — anyone with any special dietary requirements should shout — otherwise you are just going to be forcefed whatever food and drink comes to hand!!
A good 3 inches away from touching the ball anyway.
Burnley
Is something being done?

I hope the memories of their celebrations at the end of the game yesterday are fresh in our players minds…….
———
Five years from now (if they are still around) they might look back on yesterday as their high point.
“Remember that day we got a draw at Celtic Park?”
Yesterday changes nothing for them in terms of their long-term viability.
Anyone think our crowd were a bit schizophrenic yesterday.
Amazing support pre game and up to 70 minutes or so and then they transmitted nerves just when the team needed backing to see it through.
Boyata trying to gee the support up around the 80th. minute or so was something we don’t see too much at Celtic Park.
Even the normally fantastic green brigade seem to run out of steam in the last 15 minutes.
‘A liability when the going got tough’ was how an English guy I spoke to after the game described the crowd. I thought that was a harsh generalisation but this was the first time in the Brendan era I felt the nerves really transmit between crowd and team.
Usually the common enemy of a cheating ref unites and engages the support but even that did not seem to do the trick.
Burnley78
Your ignorance is evident.
Carry on
ERNIE LYNCH @ 10 40 .
Thanks –hadn’t seen that . Sadly -nothing new ..
Sordid unregulated raw capitalism with sleazeballs taking advantage of the desperate . The sheer number involved means there are regular bus services between small town Sicily and ends of the earth towns in Ukraine , Romania , Moldova , Albania and Bielorussia .. . If you are really lucky you can witness the spectacle of women fighting each other for the right to be employed/ exploited. . Some of it is Mafia business , some of it is naked individualism .. Such women cost less to exploit than eg Tunisian / Libyan / Moroccan men .
In true Sicilian style – the see nothing , hear nothing ,say nothing thing applies.
Green Man
You said you don’t go and support the team anymore.
I do. It is simple.
Burnley78
Yeah…It would suit you to pretend that it is simple.
However, as i said, I wont pay to watch cheating, you can fill your boots.
Look the other way, and pretend it isnt happening….like the PLC
Folks,
The facts of the matter are as follows:
According to Dave King he has spent £18 Million on this new Rangers creation and he has only another £12 Million to spend.
They have to pay out on any redundancy contracts for their owl management team, and the new manager has to build a new team from scratch with that same £12 Million.
Half of their current team are loans and guys who are not going to be there for next season for one reason or another.
At the start of the season, they had in place a manager who was hailed as the next big thing and was touted for many a good top flight job and who won awards for his managerial prowess last season.
They were, we were told, confident that they could either win the league or mount a serious challenge to Celtic for the title.
In fact, they are 33 points behind us and have taken one == yes one== point from a possible nine against us so far!!
Does anyone doubt that by the end of the league campaign the gap will be circa 40 points?
What you saw yesterday were the celebrations of a wee team mentality — a wee team snatching a draw at Celtic Park rightly celebrates. The Rangers played to their strengths yesterday and caught our team napping in second gear. They got a result and they are right to celebrate as there was a real chance they were going to get humped.
Celebrate away.
But they are 33 points behind, have all sorts of troubles off the park and all sorts of questions to face in the coming months.
Celtic have to build for the semi final, then hopefully the final and then Europe in June.
Rangers have to pray for the season ticket money and then scout around for as good a team as they can find for next season. Success for them is not to find themselves 33 points behind this time next year.
That is not guaranteed by any means.
Green Man
Ignorant of many things for sure
Certainly I am ignorant of whether anything is being done about The performance of the referee on Sunday.
I am inclined to take the view our Manager will deal with it accordingly.
I have the confidence he will get club backing if he feels it is of value.
You seem to feel you possess a higher knowledge which is fine.
It doesnt matter how good a team is or isnt…..a bent ref controls the result.
