Predictable SFA back their team

202

As predicted yesterday, the SFA appeals process rejected Celtic’s application to have Yang’s red card, awarded at Tynecastle on Sunday, rescinded.  The merits of the case can be set aside.  The SFA were being asked to consider whether one of their senior referees intervened unfairly in a manner which changed which team was top of the table with nine games remaining.

That was never going to happen.  Any technical justification for the recommendation to upgrade the initial yellow card would be seized.  Unlike offside, which is a definitive on or off, foul play remains under the remit of referee interpretation.

The lack of consistency, which resulted in a Motherwell player not even being cautioned for a similar challenge on Daizen Maeda a week earlier, is explained by referees interpreting the circumstances differently.

VAR is never going to change the fact that Scotland is a small place with a very small number of teams capable of winning the league.  It has shone a greater light on this lack of consistency, but it will not change people and will not quickly change processes.

  1. Good morning all from a dry, calm 4 degree Garngad.

     

     

    Goodness sake BRRB you are up early.

     

     

    Whatever happens now the Celtic board must go for the throat of these cheating bassas.

     

     

    We pay the highest amount for var based on income, I would definitely withdraw as it is being used as another tool to cheat us, so take it away.

     

    Have we received the audio yet? If not why not?

     

    Have we pressed for it?

     

    We should recieve that before BR hearing as it must have Beaton over ruling Ref which should nor happen.

     

    This audio could form part of BR defence.

     

     

    This had better galvanise our playing staff into consistently blowing teams away .

     

    As our board will probably let it go now or the 5 way agreement will be made public, let’s face it authorities must have something on Celtic.

     

     

    On the hearing I would play these cheats at their own game and say BR is too ill to attend if they are leaving it so that he gets banned for huns game.

     

     

    D. :)

    You are one busy man.Kehoe’s Bar,Quay Street Dundalk home of Tain CSC.Don’t k ow opening time.I’m sure you’ll find a cafe to relax and enjoy some tea.Enjoy.

  4. Ah the globetrotting BRRB’s is on the march again.

     

     

    Whilst us captains of industry keep the country moving.

     

     

    Away and work ya Govanhill toe rag.

     

     

    Oh and have a pleasant time.

  5. Rule 72 states: “No recognised football body, club, official, Team Official or other member of Team Staff, player or other person under the jurisdiction of the Scottish FA, shall in an interview, a ‘blog’ on the internet, on a social networking or microblogging site, or in any other manner calculated or likely to lead to publicity (i) criticise the Decision(s) and/or performance(s) of any or all match official(s) in such a way as to indicate bias or incompetence on the part of such match official; or (ii) make remarks about such match official(s) which impinge on his character.”……..

     

     

    Does ANY of the above Rule COVER what MCINNES said on tv a couple of days ago, when he said that ” VAR was driving us all mad” ?

     

    Will McInnes be punished ?

     

     

    Does ANY of the above Rule COVER the Hun statement about NOT wanting COLLUM anywhere near their matches ?

     

    Where the Huns Punished for THAT Statement ?

    Reading back……….Big j…..you call them out big mhan…and take no prisoners….

     

     

     

     

    A ..true Celt…

     

     

     

     

    Hope your health is good big mhan……

     

    …………..

     

     

    Cheers mate, my health is reasonably okay at the moment. I can’t drink as much as I used to, so I don’t go out much these days.

     

    I havent been out since the day oot with the Bhoys from CQN last Friday. I MAY go out Tomorrow for some beers, as I must go to the Post Office anyway, and that involves getting Taxi’s.

     

     

    All the best to you and the wee Yin….and all your family.

    No and in the case of sevco a consequence of the 5wa whereby the SFA cannot discipline them only CAS but the SFA need to send the case to CAS so a rogue club appears to be not under jurisdiction of the football authorities here and can do what it likes say what it likes and is safe. If Celtic do not get their KC involved in this it’s because we have or some people have plenty to hide.

  8. I watched all of the REAL MADRID v LEIPZIG Match last night.

     

    Real Madrid were shocking and LEIPZIG Should have Won it. They managed to miss several chances.

     

     

    I was waiting for PHIL FODEN to score at least Two Goals in my Lucky 15 Bet, but he was a NON Runner, as he didnt start the Match v Copenhagen.

     

     

    JUDE BELLINGHAM of REAL MADRID was the other potential goal scorer that I had on my Bookies line….He was INVISIBLE.

     

     

    My Bets are ON for Tonights Fitba.

     

    I wouldnt be surprised to see the Huns get a DRAW against BENFICA…..I hope that I am WRONG ?

     

     

    LOL

    Cheers DESSY Mate. Thank you for your response.

  10. Don’t know why we’re getting wound up . The Celtic board will do nothing . The blogs all full of ideas what to do to highlight the continual cheating . We watched Scottish football being made a laughing stock ,we watched on as a sfa appointed bluenose was getting the job of administering the cou de gra on us . I have watched the same scenario multiple times over my 66 years following the celts , after what the Mibs are getting away with it very clear that it is being allowed with Hampden HQ consent , there backs are covered . Meanwhile the absent landlord is on the golf course not giving 2 hoots what is going on .

  11. Google another friend of that Ibrox Mob ,all positive stories,Celtic all negative,so come on Celtic players win all our remaining games and stick it right up them cheating rats ,as for the fans forum how do you join them

  12. Sorry about this bhoys . But did I read that second place in the league get the chance to get to the CL through 2 qualifiers . . Anyone know .

  13. `rule 72, which rules out criticism “to indicate bias or incompetence on the part of such match official” or “make remarks about” match officials that “impinge on his character”. `

     

     

    I can understand the `bias` and `character` rules but are they really saying that Managers cannot criticise perceived incompetence ?

  14. Dessybhoy

     

     

    Your posy has stopped me in my tracks! I’d forgotten about the 5WA in relation to discipline.

     

    I’m trying to remember what was mentioned back then.

     

    Are we saying that the SFA have no jurisdiction over sevco2012 or was it the originals rangers (currently going through liquidation process) which is no longer under the auspices of the SFA and must be dealt with by CAS?

     

    Must admit, I’m unsure. Huge can of worms either way

    As a Hamilton ‘bhoy’ myself it can’t get much better than that. 😀

     

     

    Congratulations, you must be a proud great grandfather. 👍

    Jimtim,

     

     

    I’m sure that was what was mentioned the other day. 2 qualifiers first, then we’ll sign the 8 players we need to put up a fight in the group stages….

  17. Back to Basics - Glass Half Full on

    Didn’t see any of Real Madrid game last night but, by all accounts – including Big Jimmy’s – they weren’t great.

     

     

    Perhaps Carlo Ancelotti’s mind was elsewhere while he was giving his team the rousing pre-match speech?

    Footage of the brawl was posted on social media.

    …………….

     

    the Daily Ranger claiming that it is uncertain IF Fans of either club were involved…..DESPITE a STILL PIC and a short Video on THEIR PAGES showing at least Two fans wearing Hun Tops being at the scene.

     

    Do the DR NOT look at their own Pics and Videos ?

  23. Go

     

    The 5wa relates to the new club and yes that is my understanding of this agreement, rules for some no rules for another unless it’s applied by CAS which the SFA will not refer a case to.

  24. Any manager that criticises a decision by a match official is in effect questioning their competence.

     

     

    It seems there are some that wish to keep BR away from Ibrox in what I believe will be the pivotal game of this league campaign. One defeat in 15 derby games probably goes a long way to explain this desire.

  25. JimTim

     

     

    SPFL runner up goes into Q3. Lose that and it’s straight into europa group stage. Win, and the CL play off beckons. So two rounds to navigate to get into CL.

     

     

    The last I seen (3 weeks ago), as things stood then in terms of coefficients and league standings throughout Europe, the Scottish runner up would be seeded for both rounds. That could obviously change if it hasn’t already.

  26. It’s understood casuals who support Italian team Atalanta were in the area following their 1-1 draw with Portuguese side Sporting Lisbon in the same competition.

     

     

     

    ….

     

    The above comes from the Daily Ranger about the violence in Lisbon last night.

     

     

    It goes on to say ” during the fighting…the cry of ” Come on Then” can be heard.

     

    I can just imagine those Atlanta fans shouting ” Come on then, in their broad Glesga accents ?

     

     

    Yer aving a laugh !

  27. FAO BRRB at DUNDALK RACES….

     

     

    Ive just had a quick look at the RACE CARD for Dundalk tomorrow as its filled with mostly LARGE Field of Runners.

     

    Good luck getting many winners from that meeting.

     

     

    However, IF YOU get any Tips whilst in Dundalk, please Text me the info, if you can ?

     

    Cheers and HH Mate.
