Pour some ‘Best wee country’ syrup down your throat

273

Whatever former Scotland manager Craig Levein tells the media about referees’ behaviour will not come as news to you.  As Dundee United boss in 2008 he faced Rangers and was so incensed by the behaviour of referee, Mike McCurry, his reaction cost him a £5k SFA fine.

This is Scotland, it is not news, it is not even noteworthy.  The reaction from sections of the media and referees since a Celtic goal on Thursday tells you all you need to know.  Let them pour some more ‘Best wee country’ syrup down your throat while they are at it.  My only flag is green and white.

    Word of the day is ‘eye-servant’ (16th century): one who only works properly or follows the rules when they are being observed.

    Sevco a new world record for having more red cards after the game, than during them.

     

     

    When most managers before an important game come out with the familiar line ‘it’s important we keep 11 players on the pitch , it’s usually a reminder to the players .

     

     

    When a Sevco manager comes out with it , it’s a reminder to the referee .

  4. AT – I text the Big Jimmy the other day he was not feeling to good. Plus his computer broke.

     

     

    He has ordered a new one and hopefully be on any day now to put the chumps to right.

  7. Are we forgetting the Hope brothers, one of them, can’t remember which one, I’m glad to say, used to come into my fruit shop down in Erskine to gloat about results, not in a subtle way, por cierto

  8. glendalystonsils on

    I see Leslie Deans , the former Hearts chairman is demanding last Thursday’s game should be replayed or Hearts should be awarded the points .

     

    As well as being a champion of fairness and righteous indignation , Mr. Deans runs a firm of solicitors and estate agents.

     

     

    Which reminds me , how did he get on with his money laundering and fraud charges?

  9. Talking of replaying the game, can we get the Ross County infamous hand ball game replayed then?….Oh, and the Motherwell Sevco offside draw game as well?

     

    I’m sure there’ll be a few others

  10. Update

     

     

    Bigjimmys pc has arrived and he is trying to get the wiring all good.so hopefully see him in noo year.:-)

     

     

     

    Let’s all

     

     

    You smell their fear.ask the bloviator why him and prick Galloway actively campaigned against the party that made all those so called advances.and not a word of leaving the country penniless on the road to the IMF in 1976 or that little accounting error that resulted in banking debt being nationalised in 2008..yin and yang,ups and downs,peaks and troughs.advances and retreats.

     

    He and prick Galloway do not like their mantras drizzled in truth.socialist my arse.Pricks individualism is now more tory than the Tories,a handy fagg for the union to spit out their hatred,us v separatists,us vs refugees.prick is a rent a hoor.

    Bobby Tait ex Grade 1,had his request honoured to referee his heroes at Poundland, another regular on the ‘ club circuit ‘ telling tales of the bygone years…..

     

     

    ======

     

    Bada,

     

    You mean Bobby ‘our ba’Tait?when He was reffing a game i had a mate playing vs huns and one in board room,Tait told mates teammate to f..off its oor ba during game and on telling it in blue room to my other friend and deidfc directors omitted only the sweary.he was known in bloo room as our ba Tail.

     

     

    Part of the inculcated corruption we are in bed with now .sad and silent on it sadly

    Back in the 1990s the German FA ordered two Bundesliga games to have their results changed because of refereeing errors.

     

     

    FIFA came down on them like a ton of bricks and warned that results cannot be altered retrospectively. The Germans ignored FIFA and refused to reinstate the original results.

     

     

    FIFA then banned Germany from the 1998 World Cup. The ban lasted 90 minutes as the German FA shat themselves and reinstated the original results.

     

     

    Now we have football people in Scotland demanding that the result of Celtic v Hearts is ameded.

     

     

    Heaven help us.

    To be fair Tom , Deans hasn’t been involved in football for some time . He’s just another ‘civilian’ , motivated by a hatred for Celtic .

  16. SAINT STIVS on 7TH DECEMBER 2021 2:19 PM

     

    MNCELT – NOT OFFSIDE,

     

     

    That is a brilliant image.

     

     

    Off topic: Tait was determined that his last gig would ensure Rangers’ retention of the title. Instead, the unprecedented length of extra time he awarded assured Kilmarnock of victory. Poetic justice or not?

    There’s a lot at stake for Beaton in the cup final and it could go either way .

     

     

    Either he gets as many free pints and nips in his favoured Bellshill hostelry, or he gets a kicking from the resident bears if he fails.

    I do find it difficult to follow your political contributions, An. You once penned a retort to me – in the middle of the night, I believe. It was quite incoherent but one thing I remember about it was that you accused me of being a ‘wee socialist’. You, unlike myself, obviously thought this a pejorative term and a ‘show-stopper’.

     

    I suggest you find yourself a hobby – football?

    anyone hear from the fella, how is he ?

     

    …………….

     

    My PC broke down early last week and then from mid week onwards, I was very unwell and I really thought that I was going to have to phone for an ambulance or get a taxi to hospital.

     

    I was very dizzy ( like 3 times before) and felt sick and I thought I was losing blood again ?

     

    I also woke up with the FLU on Saturday morning…Exactly Two Weeks AFTER getting the Flu Jab my Booster.

     

    My new computer arrived Today, and I had a wrestling match with the connection leads ….the leads nearly won !

     

    I may need to wait a few days to see IF I am well enough to go to the Pub ?

     

     

    Thanks for asking about me SAINT.

     

    HH Mate.

    At Tynie they would congregate at the bogs at the back on the half way line. Then bugger off once we scored. Always the most dangerous of stadiums to be in, even the bigotdome.

    ———————————-

     

     

    From the Celtic Wiki

     

     

    The previous day arch-bluenose and referee Bobby Tait had reffed his last game in the Kilmarnock – Rangers match and had given over 4 minutes of extra time in each half in order for Rangers to find a winner – to no avail – Kilmarnock went up the park to score leaving the mighty ‘gers without a point. Here’s yer broken watch retirement pressie, Bobby. Have a good time doon the ludge.

     

     

     

    i was in the forge wandering about mrs h and her mam getting stuff. there was a tv rental shop right in the middle. quite a crowd gathered to watch the scores coming in. our fear of thems winning a 10 , and coming from behind to do so was terryfying, it occupied my everythought.

     

    We had lost at ibrox a few weeks earlier and that let them back in the game.

     

     

    the scores were coming in thick and fast, and the huns game had been reported as 0-0, but the minutes were ticking past , ibrox full time score didnt come through till seriously like 10 minutes after all others …………………

     

     

    0-1 Mitchell

     

     

    huge cheer went up, mixed in with a few ffs and fenian bassas, very memorable

     

     

    25 minutes in,

     

     

    look even at the size of the travelling support.

     

     

    a cacophony of boos , boo, boo
