Neil Lennon unlikely to have a case to answer

898

The SFA are entitled to ask Neil Lennon to explain his conduct at Ibrox on Sunday but I doubt he has a case to answer.  Neil accepted a warning during the first half from fourth official, Iain Brines, for contesting the decision to send off Cha Du-Ri, Brines did not regard this protest as sufficient to call the over referee.  Neil then spoke to referee Calum Murray at the end of the first half without incident or caution.

Murray clearly did not regard Lennon’s comments as worthy of dismissal from the technical area at that time and was did not call Neil to the referees’ room during the interval.  It was left to fourth official Iain Brines to deliver the news to the Celtic manager that he was ordered from the technical area.

Murray and Brines appear to have let the occasion get the better of them.  A referee must be clear in his mind before ordering a manager from the technical area and must take the correct steps necessary in doing so.  He cannot mutter a statement of intent to caution a manager without actually doing so.

  1. If anybody is looking for an oldies music site that plays a selection of

     

    music from 1950 to 1989 while you browse, type in tropical glen and pick a year

     

    and it will play a selection in the background or pick a musical genre,

     

    really good site but you cannot download only listen and better than wee dawell

     

    talking a load of fry,s turkish delight

  2. What game to watch tonight.

     

     

    Real v appoel

    Sammi was only one vote ahead of big Fraser and one poster wanted to have his two votes cast for Sammi so in theory both of them would have ended up with the same number of votes.

     

     

    Your extra vote for Sammi therefore makes him a clear second. Hope that makes sense :-)

  4. glassaghwho…phew. TV went on the blink there and wasn’t showing it. Sorted now.

     

    Thanks

    Was distracted there by mickybhoy’s post. Tried the site he recommended. VG.

     

     

    Twitter I’m afraid is too much of a stretch for this auldyin:o)

  6. i was gonna do this awhile ago, but got sidetracked. relating to government legislation etc. if there was any reason to doubt our leaders in dealing with serious issues, then i urge you all to google hollie greig. in this you will find an utterly disgraceful abuse all the way to the top of our country which is not allowed on any media in scotland or england. a truly shocking story.

  7. Another Rangers fan calling me a @@@@ again for no reason. Rangers winning on Sunday was the equivalent of winning bingo on the titanic :)

    I see the English FA are defying UEFA tv regulations again tonight. Now clear why UEFA dont want to deal with this until the summer.

    Your request last night to a fellow tim to go and commit suicide last night was uncalled for. Actually abject horrific. Your level of argument against those that support such an action was akin to that of recently frontally labotomised hun.

     

     

    An absolute disgrace for a so called tim

    When wee Chick was asked on Shortbread about the St Mirren director,who was asked to resign after showing Gary Withey of the huns confidential info,automatically blamed it on in fighting on the St Mirren board.

    ye’ll not be surprised to hear that the Main St was akin to Beirut on Sunday night. I hear they closed it off at both ends.

  14. The Legend Johnny Doyle on

    Has anyone looked at the game statistics involving Callum (at no time did I ever feel threatened) Murray, Pre & Post (so called) Shame Game?

     

     

    Could he have been encouraged to make amends through a reduction in higher profile games or the removal of other perks?

  16. Mr X loves having a "fly kick" on

    Just opened up the internet there and my home page has a Skysports headline of “McCoist still basking in win”.

     

     

    Dearie me. His vile club faces an uncertain future, Celtic are going to win the league, yet he is “basking” in, when all is said and done, an utterly meaningless victory for them. Merely delays the inevitable.

     

     

    And what about the pictures of him “celebrating” – typical of the over-reaction and theatrical guff we got from him back in the day when he scored against us.

     

     

    Sleekit, snidey, fake and a failure. Yes, Alistair. That’s you. A failure. Out of FIVE tournaments this year and already out of Europe next year.

     

     

    Long may you reign.

    snecker,

     

    remember something about this a while ago, its amazin how quickly we loose track of what really matters.

     

    the complicit media are again showing themselves to be part of the problem, this stuff is easily verified, in fact they provide the media links to the court cases on the site.
