theglasgowcelticway on 17th October 2015 4:58 pm I think the fact we won is hugely relevant and makes this the better time to go on the attack.I remember MON after we defeated Dunfermline on their artificial pitch making the point that our victory allowed him his honest opinion.
*after we won the toss of the coin at the Estádio da Luz, Bob Kelly complained that this was not the way to determine any game never mind a European tie even though his side benefitted from it.
Penalty kicks were then brought in. Unfortunately the 1st game to decide this new format was our semi against Inter.
So sevco get that late penalty from referee Barry Cook, who admitted in a Herald article ..
“I started as a schoolboy signing at Rangers …” .. enough said.
I wonder if he attends the same lodge as the myopic Bro. Muir ???
History will record Celtic won 1 nil today, 3 points & top of the league. Hoopy days ;-))
What it won’t record it the blatant cheating by the ref….unless the club complains….which it won’t….unless it’s compiling a dossier of incidents….which I doubt
Was gonna brag about not seeing any of these pop-up ads yees are complaining about….until today….WTF is Star Alliance, is it a wing of the Star Chamber?
Roy Croppie, hav u thought any further about the opportunity to raise funds for “charritee mate”
smashie&nicieCSC
Bourne, it certainly is.
I would love to ask some media bawheid like Chic Young about the non penalty awards today.
No doubt we would get the standard media reply, it all evens out over the season mince .
Pleased Nadir got our winner today, should build his confidence.
I remember Billy mc Neill going nose to nose with the ref Valentine on the touchline – Billy was showing enormous restraint in not knocking his block off – mid to late 70’s I think
I reckon Muir asked McLean how he expected to get away wi the ICT decision last season.
And got told-Just watch.
Sure enough,Celtic barely raised a whimper and within a few days it was history.
Watch history repeat itself.
BMCUWP,
Why have we let ourselves become so cynical ;-))

Mrs RWE worked with Brian McGinley many moons ago, when he was working in an office supplies place in Bath Street, Glasgow.
He talked openly at work of his allegiance to the a team from The Minty Deathstar Stadium and joked about his “other” job as an up and coming referee..
He was a classic smirker even back then.
We’re talking 1976 now….
Charles Kickham, Billy did it with Andrew Waddell or to give him full title, Doctor Andrew Waddell, he was a pathologist I think.
It was during a game with Aberdeen at Celtic Park.
Our management team wore buttoned training tops at the time much to the disgust of the vomit of football, McNee. He stated on scotsport once, Celtic managers ahould wear a suit not ridiculous training tops. I think it was more to do with having a go at Billy after Cesar had smacked McNee on the coupon.
Watchin Alba Stranraer V Pars crackin 2nd goal for the pars.
Ronny is not shy in airing his views to the media after games, clever in his wording also for an oversees guy.
Starting to call them out this season I think, the press and officials
BMCUWP,
One again, thanx fur the Hootenanny….wens the next wan ;-))
Wales out booo
H.H.
Brian Mcginley gave us two penalties in one game at Ibrox .
My pal’s dad was at a burns supper once. McGinley was there sitting at a table sponsored by the horribles. McGinley sat with Greig and some other horribles looking very cosy in their company.

Aye,mate. I put it down to experience.
BMCUW
haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaw bhoy
you stoap showin aff wae they cyber tips :))))))))))))))))))))
Dallas Dallas where the heck is Dallas
I stand corrected – I remember Billy being toe to toe and nose to nose with the ref – with his big proud chest sticking out – old age must be catching up with me to get the name wrong – Hail Hail
Broony was superb today-again. Thought wee Izzy was right on form also. Most of the boys did well. Until the officials are wired for sound nothing will ever change , even then they will practice being rotten to the core

Be there or be quite lonely!
Dallas 5.34pm
I was at that game, they nearly scored, think big Bonnar was in goal, there would have been a riot that day, total joke of a ref whoever he was, as for Brian McGinaly we used to play in the Walter Elliot cup (civil service tournament) Mr McGinley never hid his allegiances for a team that is no longer with us, by the way as an amateur fitballer he was a right good ref, maybe because he just reffed the game without caring who won (at that level)
THELURKINTIM
Glad you enjoyed it,btw. And it was great to meet you-and so many others.
Next year,I promise it won’t clash wi half-term or my niece’s birthday. Might be some carnage then!
LEFTCLICKTIC
No-one more surprised than me!
You’d a good yin tae!
Evening Folks,
I see a lot of comments on Brain McGinlay (note the spelling).
Mr McGinley obviously came to my attention as a referee as his surname is phonetically indentical to mine.
I have to say that the first folk I ever spoke to about him was a well know Irish family from the Shawlands area who knew him and played football with him and who had games refereed by him.
They were pretty fullsome in their praise of him as a fair guy to be honest.
At games, I always thought of him as ok – not in the same bigoted class as the likes of Syme or Davidson.
However, I was always conscious of someone in the crowd shouting ” Hey, McGinlay – You’re a Ba….rd!”
Naturally, at such a shout i would look round somewhat concerned in case it was directed at me!
Then, in 1990 I took the decision to move house to …….. Balfron!
In the intervening years I have gotten to know Brian petty well and have been at various local dinners where he has been a speaker or MC when various ex Celtic, Rangers, Motherwell, Morton, Hearts etc players have all been present.
I have always found him pretty fair to be honest — though his jokes are crap and I tell him that to his face.
He is not slow to buy a round and even faster at accepting a drink when in the mood.
I have also heard Bob Valentine, Kenny Clark, Willie Young and various others speak — of those I was most impressed by Valentine though I know Clark better.
No doubt people have different impressions of different people.
Want to watch how Celtic get cheated?
Dallas Dallas
Gave us 2 pens…so that means it should have been four pens.
:o)
Or watch Celtic getting cheated again
BMCUWP,
There’s a slim chance I’ll b there….hopefully….was great to meet u & others….looking forward to doin it again….’cept wae more time and booze ;-))
H.H.
I don’t think McGinley was the worst. Not by a long shot.
Willie Young was an out and out hun. So too was Mike McCurry.
But the master was Dallas. Some of his displays had to be seen to be believed.
Of the current crop, McLean is probably the worst. Collum is just an idiot. Thomson is best at, ahem, “game management”. Guaranteed our next game against them will see him in charge.
Hadn’t noticed Muir until today. One to watch, perhaps…
bsr
it evens itself out over the season
2 per game, that’s a nice even number
Quicky reminder of what what Alan Muir didn’t see
BRTH
Are you Hugh Dallas ?
Only kidding but that is some amounts of referees you are friendly with, probably great guys off the park but on the park their instinct prevails, if I was a ref I would give Celtic everything, thankfully I was more interested in playing that officiating, maybe that’s why there are no decent Celtic fans redding, we were all too busy playing, young Andrew Dallas must have always been last picked to end up preferring to ref rather than play…..
Enjoyed the chat fellow Celtic fans
Take care and good night/evening
BMCUW
after her usual grilling of me ,my mam says to tell you she is asking after you:)))))
Good Evening.
Three points. Top of the league. Job done.
But here are my thoughts on that refereeing performance!
https://theclumpany.wordpress.com/2015/10/17/when-alan-muir-dropped-three-points/
I cannot add to the comments already made about the ref I would give him minus zero marks. Cifchi was excellent today led the line well scored and denied a blatant penalty. Why was he subbed.? Boyata continues to improve and Rogic also making strides.
I was only booked nce in my ‘football career’ . A 5 a-side college tournament. A drop ball and I completely mussit it and kicked the opther guy in the stomach! McGinley booked me as he couldn’t believe I was that bad…. One week later the story about his toilet visits broke..and his carerr was over Divine intervention
Email sent to Jp asking are the board, the supposed protectors of my investment as a shareholder, going to let said investment be jeopardised by the incompetence of Officials. (Citing the performance of The Official both today and in the Cup semi last year)
Have a good night Tim’s
HH
Rogic was terrible today! couldn’t keep ball or pass it to aNYONE..
” Had my players shown the same desire to stop Celtic as Alan Muir, we could have taken something from the game ”
Mark McGhee
ps I was always happy to see McGinley ref Hun matches . He was as fair as anyone can be in Scotland!
We played some good football in the first half especially down the left hand side with Izzy and Armstrong. Good to see Ciftci getting a goal. The second half was marred by two awful non refereeing decisions. The non decision at the deliberate handball to prevent a goal was nothing other than unadulterated cheating.
