Stephen Pressley’s Falkirk team did well at Hampden yesterday but the manager did himself no credit with his half time rant at the referee, who chopped off a perfectly good Celtic goal but annoyed Pressley for awarding a penalty when Thomas Rogne was hauled to the ground.
An irritated Pressley, who always seems to be the one in the middle of any controversy, then gave an inexplicable post-match interview to the BBC, demonstrating as clear a case of Cognitive Dissonance you are likely to find outside of a textbook. At the time he, apparently, hadn’t seen a TV replay of the penalty incident, made no attempt to claim Darren Dods was innocent of the alleged discretion, nor did he suggest the referee had erred, but he was clearly troubled trying to reconcile these facts with his feeling of being wronged.
To all aspiring Cognitive Dissonance posters in the CQN comments section, new standards have been set. You are a bunch of amateurs with functioning resolution pathways and have no future in the game.

I’ll believe it when I see it – but I’ll need conformation before I read it…
Kayal 33- We might get bids for JF in the summer so 500k for Templeton might be forward thinking.
Amadeus – Rock me.
Spill the beans.

There was a hint from Keevins earlier about a breaking story
MWD
Huns in an urn
Superb! Take a bow big man!
ho ho ho, some hun moaning about aluko’s diving ban now
OH THE HURT!!! :D
It’s being alleged that Tommy Sheridans first phone call on his release was to The Krankies.
Nay lad, I am sworn to secrecy
but it’s beyond dynamite!
Get that champagne in the fridge!
Amadeus will stake what little is left of his reputation on this baby.
As the esteemed Starry will tell you, that aint so much.
a bit of rankers chaff on clyde now-minted
I am laughing at Keevins and Speirs, they are both perfectly aware of the story that’s coming out the morra. Talk about biting your lip!
!!Bada Bing!! Kano 1000
Is Tommy now an agent for the huns ?
Hail Hail
they should gie that guy a break its no fair
amadeus…

Just speaking to The Fu99ie Dew and a thought came to me.
I’m stuck in the Office tonight wading through the Tax payments I’ve got to make by tonight and certainly by Mid month February (taking VAT and PAYE into account).
Obviously Cash flow is an issue for a small company like mine.
VAT, PAYE & NIC, Corporation tax, not to mention ELS Self Assessment returns…….
The thought is this……
Do you think if I wrote to HMRC saying I’m not paying any more taxes until the Huns start paying theirs, they’ll understand????
Naw me neither
Mucker
Not sure I still like HMRC but I’m sure that could change very quickly again :-)
Is Jabba still getting the punt from the Daily Ranger and this “Amadeus” story is his parting shot?
T4
BT that’s it blackmail him…
Clyde = the Jeremy Kyle of radio. You know it’s bad, it annoys you and it shouldn’t give it the time of day but is addictive and I always think you need to keep an eye on you’re enemy or and listen tin or what a large proportion of your fellow humans are being fed.
Well that’s how I justify it to myself.
Any road a wee tip of the hat to Mr Delahunt tonight who seemed, at last, after a bleeding eternity scroping around like a in his scants, found some testicular fortitude!
It’s gone all boring and rubbish again now so if ye missed it, he’ll mend ye.
MWD/Awe Naw
Ah wiz a bit doon furra wee while recently – couldnae be bothered posting or reading here.
I should have came on more often – the two of you have had me in fits o laughter here.
Macky – hope it all works out mate.If I can help in any way – just shout. I still have a few business contacts up that way.
Abmucker
If the HMRC take them down and tell any NEWCo to GTF …. I´ll be sending them money and I haven´t lived there for 25 year
Hail Hail
As kenny Clarke said on the ALUKO case there is contact but if that contact happened in a pub you widnae spill your pint.

There is no evidence whatsoever that Rangers are good for Scottish football.
If the argument is they are good for television that is a different matter altogether but it is a discussion for TV times.
Football has already sold its soul to TV companies but what makes me watch football on TV is that football is a sport independent of TV influence. Lose that distinction and it all becomes a soap series and the off switch is the answer.
Now their talking about the Treble!!!
twists:
NP mate. id rather u just concentrated on the health & fitness of all the family.
im sure someone, at some point, will like me within that 1st 10-30secs of my interview :)
