    If it wasnt careless or reckless, how would you describe making contact above the knee after swinging for the ball?

    Why are you so desperate to justify a hun penalty? You don't help yourself here mate  😂 

    I'd describe it as accidental contact which in no way would stop a diving wee cunt from getting to the ball and taking a pop at goal..

    The right decision wad the one made by Beaton to begin with. A yellow for simulation.

    The problem with what you say is that its not what the rules are.

    Nowhere in law 12 does it mention that any contact has to be enough to make the opponent go down. 

    Very few fouls that are correctly awarded in football would result in a person going to ground. If a person is kicked on the leg in a non football context then the natural thing to do would be hop about abit, not fall to the ground. In football though its accepted that players fall over when kicked. Thats what happened here, Johnstone swung and kicks Silva. I dont think anybody is disputing that. The only consideration then is whether the ref thinks its in careless / reckless. If it is then its a penalty.

    I saw that whilst also saying Silva and players like him do my nut in. He was rolling about trying to get Celtic players booked or sent off all game. He was very much looking for Johnstone to connect with him but thats then what happened.

    Ok ffs, the tackle was neither careless or reckless. It was a dive regardless of any rule you quote

    Really poor game in terms of quality but action and incident packed.

    I normally like Sutton but having him commentate on this match is pointless as there is the natural bias.

    I thought Rangers penalty was a dive real time. But when you see the replay Silva is caught about the knee. He goes down easy and might have gone down anyway but Sutton just repeatedly said he was already down at the point of contact, even though at the same time you were getting numerous replays showing that wasnt the case. What this did was take away from the other aspect which was how much did Johnstone touch the ball. Unfortunetly Sky didnt even show that part of the replay.

    CCV was the standout for Celtic.

    Tavinear, Goldson and Lawrence were shocking for Rangers who were lucky to get a draw.

    This will sound of coming from me as one of the most anti OF fans on here but the quality wasn't that bad IMO.

    Walking away, it’s a hun trait 

    I wouldn't be surprised if talksport told him to stay away after those comments. 

    His mask is really slipping lately. Hopefully it comes off completely and people can see him for what he really is. Maybe we will get the added bonus of rangers being under the microscope too.

    Good post but I think your not up to date on some of the info, I'll give you my opinion for what it's worth. 

      McGregor - think is training & could even feature in the Old Firm game this weekend.

      Hickey - may not play for Brentford again this season but expects to be fit in May , so let's hope training & match sharpness can be gained in our June friendlies as we desperately need him. 

      Brown - don't know but prefer he wasn't selected anyway. 

      McKenna - Pleased he is back playing as even though he may not be a world beater we really do need him. 

      Hanley - Wasn't aware Wagner had said this , if it's true I would be very concerned as he is a naturally burly guy who needs to be playing to keep his levels up, if he isn't starting regular for Norwich before the end of the season I wouldn't want him starting for Scotland. I'm actually very concerned Clarke's loyalty may mean 2 of our central defence choices will be a either not match sharp or past their best in Hanley & Cooper .

     Nisbet - sadly injured but hasn't kicked on at Millwall so the jury's out on his long term international career.

     Stewart - Believe is doing light training but after breaking down so quickly from a previous long term injury I can't see Southampton risking him this season unless Adams etc are seriously misfiring. 

     Doak - Idk but hope your right that he could be back training & even playing by May. Be a very pleasant surprise if he could make the first team squad again this season & make an impact . I'm sure most of us should love that to happen just to see what Clarke would do especially if the squad is increased to 26.

    Ramsay - sadly injury has ruined his season, he may also be suffering from Patterson style confidence issues as he didn't even get off the bench on Monday even though his league one side Bolton brought 5 subs on in a 5-2 victory. Sadly we can't really call him even a potential Scotland player at this stage . Next season will be very crucial for his future, let's hope the lad stays fit 

    I don't think Nisbet, Doak or Ramsay had any chance of making it even if they get fit. Stewart and maybe Brown have a tiny chance if they bangs in a few before the end of the season but again, its very unlikely.

     

    The others mentioned are players we need, especially McGregor, Mckenna and Hickey

    If it was the other way round, he would be sacked by now, up on FA charges and most likely the police would be involved. Obviously a different situation, but when Shelley Kerr hosted a meeting drunk that ended up in tears and players having issues, it was swept under the carpet. Different standards apply to different sexes, who would have thought that.

    I see that Emma Hayes has blamed male aggression, what a two faced pig ignorant cow she is.

    No action taken against Hayes. If that was a mens match.....the offending manager would have a touchline ban and possibly a fine.

    A clear message sent to men working in the women's game.. if they had any sense they'd get the fuck out of it and let women do it on their own.

    apparently not being recorded in a similar way to JKRs.  Murdo fraser is on “the list” however.

    joanna cherry has a sensible outlook - a shame the snp kicked out one of their most sensible leaders

    The law isn't the problem. The problem is how the media have reported it. There are morons reporting humza for his infamous speech about white people occupying top tier positions and people reporting jk Rowling for saying a trans woman isn't a woman. Neither are crimes.

    Job done by the media though.

    I'm not a football pundit, who young kids look up to, a Scottish football legend, a representative of a football club so to speak.. Yes, I will go off my nut Sunday morning, play a few rebel songs, get in the mood with my pays.... Then that's it.. 

    Difference is, I did not go on public radio and tell the entire fuckin world to go complete bigot on Sunday !! He just prompted hate and bigotry whether you like it or not.. Folk will act on this because of who he is !! 

    I called Ally McCoist a bigot few year ago on this board and got pelters for it. Well I guess I wasn't wrong after all. 

    No disrespect to you mate, I see what you were saying, but it's completely different dynamic.. I'm just a wee Celtic supporter, a nobody, McCoist is a so called legend spreading his hatred..... 

    Using your logic, you are happy for rangers fans to be bigots because they are not on TV or Radio??

    "If you hate the f*****g Celtic clap your hands"

    I mean, unless the hate crime bill is extended to the feelings of a football team.... TBF it's Celtic, they'll be offended if the winds blowing against them.

    If we're going in to this territory, there'll be hate crimes reported for messages on this forum.

    "Hello, I'd like to report a hate crime. @LoganRoy called me a cunt, and i've had to take 3 days off work"

    someone else who doesn't get or understand the hate crime law
