  1. lets all do the huddle on

    hang on…

     

     

    i was being sarcastic earlier about the VAR lines being drawn by crayon.

     

     

    are folk trying to say that there were no VAR lines that the ref checked and he was only going by the tv pictures that we all seen?

     

     

    theres no way that can be true, thats a major scandal if it is.

    I agree that like Kyogo Greg is not as effective in the style Brendan likes us to play.

     

     

    I also think he has been handled very badly. I can’t believe he even bothered to put in a shift at all today.

     

     

    Perhaps you are right btw.

    As for how he has been treated by some sad folks who have never done much in their own pathetic wee worlds well that’s a different matter.

     

     

     

    I sit amongst such sad wee folk desperate to abuse someone for makings mistake. Psychologist would have a field day.

    Away and lie down you utter fool – it’s a football blog. People have opinions. What age are you ? 12 ?

    We should have enough in the tank to win the league.

     

     

    Perhaps today will ensure we know the 100% needed to win the cup v Hibs Hearts Aberdeen or whoever plus officials.

    He weakened the whole left side of the defence today, too wee no physicality in contact but thats not his fault, he looked as if he couldn’t be arsed today as did Idah, McCowan was also crap and i’m not sure he can play for Celtic either. Early promise has wilted.

    Cheating dips to a new low.

     

     

    Thought Celtic were punished for a very sluggish start, and the predictable but ’wrong’ team selection from BR. After transfermeggon in January squad is ‘light’ copyright BR, and it shows when you are forced to make three changes, to your original choice by half time.

     

     

    Adam Idah hooked for not showing in the first 45 and Greg Taylor for showing up only in the wrong places suffered the same. Luke McCowan was more than unlucky to be subbed. Jota could have rescued a point had he not saw the headlines, instead of a simple pass to Kuhn. Daizen Maeda did score twice, but for Alan Muir’s age old brass bawbaggery.

     

     

    Home game on Tuesday three more sleeps till Paradise, they can’t chalk them all off and Brendan Rodger’s excellent stewardship goes for the treble with added incentive to knock Hibs out of the Cup to boot.

     

     

    MOM Daizen Maeda

     

     

    VAR There wasn’t enough evidence on camera to show that the ball crossed the line, so Alan Muir cut out Steven McLean’s pitchside review, and just overruled it himself. A new one, even for Hamdump as long as it benefits, anybody but Celtic.

     

     

    You only need go from week to week to see officials (with previous) who only observe what they want to see. If you get honest mistakes from the referee – you’ll get them from the VAR official too, any neutral adjudication would have just left the goal as given.

    With all due respect, those calling for Alan Muir to be sacked are approaching the issue from the wrong angle. We don’t need a witch-hunt. Instead, here we have a perfect opportunity to shake the very foundations of Scottish football. Going by the letter of the laws of the game in Scotland, our second goal should only have been disallowed if evidence unequivocally demonstrated that the ball fully crossed the by-line. If that evidence doesn’t exist, and it seems that it doesn’t, we’re within our rights to demand that the game be replayed due to a failure to apply the rules. Really, this is a perfect opportunity to show that we won’t put up with this level of officiating.

     

     

    I would add that if we were successful in the above approach, Alan Muir’s position might become untenable. However, the message that it would send to other officials would be infinitely more important. The worst thing we can do in this situation is let this situation pass without kicking up hell about it. Asking for the game to be replayed would bring much more attention to the situation than anything else. I believe that there are precedents for this in other European leagues.

    Big Jimmy, looking like it was over the line? Isn’t enough for VAR to overturn an on field decision of goal, Johnstons foot was over the line, no conclusive proof the whole ball was over the line.

     

    ……………..

    B78 – the manager’s immediately called out VAR and name checked Alan Muir in his post match interview.

    YES…YOU are correct mate.

     

    I was wrong to Post earlier that the Ball ” looked” as though it was over the Goal Line at DIAZENS 2nd “Goal” in my earlier Post.

     

    As others have said….WHERE was the PHOTO that the VAR CHUMP Mr Muir made his decision to overrule the ON FIELD Decision by the Ref ?

     

    I stand corrected as it was NOT ” An Obvious error” by the Ref McLean.

     

    MUIR and VAR just GUESSED !

    Bias and prejudice, he should be sacked or at the very least have nothing to do with any Celtic match in the future or the team in second place.

  29. An Dún on

    Ad hominem attacks on anyone is below the belt, more so when it’s a fellow Celtic fan.

     

     

    I unreservedly apologise to Burnley. It won’t happen again. If a mod could delete my post @3:59 , I would appreciate it. Once again, Burnley, my apologies.

    Ireland will win the 6 Nations anyway so I was rooting for Wales.

     

     

    Contrast the forensic analysis needed to overturn a Welsh try that was given by the on-field officials with what was needed to rule out a Celtic goal today.

  41. mmccartney on

    Big Jimmy you’re excused pal, just a wee hiccup for us today, Muir has made an axse of himself. Muir and McLean were the two who didn’t see the Griffiths header getting palmed off the line in the Scottish Cup Semi against Inverness a number of years ago. some things never change.
