Willie Collum made THREE big mistakes in Aberdeen vs Celtic last night, according to ex-SPFL referee Charlie Richmond. Celtic's winner The Portuguese winger stuck just moments after Ferguson's equaliser. Tony Ralston's header played him in, but there was debate over whether an offside Liel Abada was interfering with play by blocking off David Bates. "When the header from Anthony Ralston goes forward, Abada is in an offside position. "It’s not an offence to be offside, but he starts to walk back and into the path of David Bates. "He’s interfered with the Aberdeen defender. It’s not like Abada has stood still, he’s initiated the contact and interfered with the opponent. "It’s not about whether Bates would have won the ball, but he would have potentially influenced Jota’s finish. "It’s in such close proximity, too, so Bates could have got across to block the shot. "It should have been given as offside."

It's not. I am, however, a very optimistic, 'glass' half full person. We (unfortunately) need other results to go our way, but they have been. I take that as a positive. And that fact that 4th is still very attainable, and we are still in the Scottish Cup are also positives. The alternative is to be miserable (and I'm grateful I never am). 😊

Yes, but there isn't usually a pack fighting for fourth. The pack is usually further down fighting for top six. As disappointing as Aberdeen's results have been, our main competition (on paper... Hibs and Motherwell) have had results that are just as disappointing. We badly need a settled starting 11. The second half v Celtic has given me hope. If we can replicate that, we could see off Motherwell and St. Johnstone. Failure in those games and Glass would have to go.

😉

Spot on. Aye, going by last night, I wouldn't mind seeing McCrorie at RB with Ramsay playing in front of him putting in the crosses from that side for our 2 up front (which I also liked to see).

Yes, too many changes with inexperienced personnel. Aberdeen isn't the size of club to cut ones' teeth on.

It's so tight that when we win our game in hand that we'll be 6th, one point off 4th.

Be patient. He just got there.

1st goal - Woods should have come for it. (Terrible kicking all night, too.) 2nd goal - unlucky deflection. 3rd goal - from the training ground. Worked a charm. 4th goal - Lewis scores his 7th v Celtic with a great header. 5th goal - offside Also, Celtic orchestrated a premeditated lay down to stop 10IAR. 😊

11 trophies in 10 years (including 2 stars) says different.

First year chairman appoints first year manager and first year Director of Football. It was always going to be a long shot. You reap what you sow.

Enjoyed that.

I didn't say two victims. I said two 'victims'. DG is a victim of society playing judge, jury, and executioner with no end in sight (and I get that many are fine with that). Many don't want him to be able to 'pay his debt' and that his life should forever be a 'hell'.

No, and we have two 'victims'.

Playing devil's advocate... Should David Goodwillie be allowed to earn a living playing football? At what point (after year on year consistent public abuse and paying 100K) is his 'debt' to society 'paid'? Never?

I'm just in from work in a city that has a 5 hour time difference to you.

What did you say, and what did I say? Quotes please. Yes, I love Him because He first loved me. He owes me nothing. I hate sectarianism. I hate racism. I hate secret societies. I hate injustice. I hate cheating. (I hate the things they love.) Righteous hatred is part of being Christian.

Not known for pace.

He'll be a class player for Killie. Needs to play the ball forward more, and needs to shoot more, though.

You are welcome.

Sevco have dropped 4 points already this season to The Famous (while only dropping 3 points to Celtic).

I think we only reduced their allocation by 350. (It's still too much.)

Sevco drop out of first place. One win from their last 4 games. My advice would have been to spend. Spend, spend, spend. Spend like there's no tomorrow. 😛
