Jersey Jim Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 First Saints game of the season for me this Saturday. Flying into Inverness tomorrow for a night on the 🍺 then train to Aberdeen early Saturday morning, looking forward to my visit to the Granite City, but fear a hammering for us up there as our record is shocking at Pittodrie.

Guest faircity Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Time for action. Not sure what, play him regardless or boycott the semi or something, I don't know. This outrageously corrupt setup in Scotland needs exposed to a wider audience. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We now know that deliberately kicking out at opponents isn’t reckless, we’ve seen it more than once this season. Maybe someone should just kick out instead to break down an attack, it’ll be nothing more than a freekick and allow your team to regroup.

RDFH64 Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Cowardly bastards trying to make it look as if they debated it thoroughly before announcing their sentence, or maybe Rodgers managed to speak to them afore his game started. I see McKennas victim has recovered enough to start tonight’s game🖕 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is pointless but is their any point parting with hard earned cash to watch a competition that is clearly loaded against the majority of teams competing in it? These appeal results cannot be interpreted any other way than blatantly wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDFH64 Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Was he only cited after Rodgers complained about it or were they looking at it already, shows how Rodgers reacts when things aren’t going his way and he’s under some pressure, greeting faced prick moaning about everything.

Orraloon Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 He hits the the Celtic guy half-way up the thigh with both feet off the ground. He can't be in control if he is flying through the air with no contact with the ground. Red card without a doubt. Ref fucked up. It was more like a Kung Fu move than a tackle.

Inconsistency and making things up as they go along is the issue here. It stinks. They've been shown up for what are. What happens next? Not sure, but it's not encouraging anyone to part with their hard earned to watch the duopoly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the double standards though. Morelos was red carded for kicking a player off the ball, caught on camera and absolutely no doubt it was the correct decision yet it was overturned. McKenna's appeal has far more going for it than Morelos' one did due to the fact he played the ball before any contact and it's debatable whether or not he even know that Edouard was coming. No surprises which way the rulings went. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ger intae them Posted October 4, 2018 Share Posted October 4, 2018 Wake up. It was a red card all day long... just because you get a few dodgy decisions doesn't mean you can appeal the obvious. They should shut up... what is it with moaning nowadays? Everyone wants to greet to order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
macy37 Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 I can’t believe anyone truly believes that it shouldn’t have been a red. The issue is that it was done after the event, that is the only issue here, that our referees are so bloody poor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had McKenna been unjustly given a red card for an accidental clash then he would have received a one game suspension. Because the ref didn't make a call, McKenna is now given two games? Is it fair on McKenna to now miss more time than what the incident originally would have cost? Awkward encounter? Yes Deliberate? No. McKenna was only interested in a hurried clearance to the point where he used his weaker foot. (Keep in mind that the Celtic player started tonight.)

Happy to be corrected but my understanding is that the officials had to miss the incident for this panel to review it. Did the ref and his assistants honestly miss it? I doubt it. an extra game ban, no explanation given🙄 if anything all fans should be standing against the SFA and the SPFL right now because of what has happened recently morelos kick - red was right call naismith stamp - no retrospective action but there should’ve been browns elbow - no retrospective action but there should’ve been mcregor kick - no retrospective action but there should’ve been mckenna incident- retrospective action claiming no official saw the incident the semi final debacle - enough said im not claiming conspiracy theory, I’m claiming incompetence and a lack of knowing the rules of the game What’s the fuck is wrong with the people running the game in Scotland?

I’m sure your club and supporters clubs must be due a statement soon. It’s been a a while. you also seem to be claiming Aberdeen should just accept it. You’d be greeting like a bubbling bairn if this was happening to rangers. As I’ve explained above, try to think bigger picture.

sbcmfc Posted October 5, 2018 Share Posted October 5, 2018 Can any one give any precedent for a citing for a bad/clumsy tackle? The whole disciplinary system is now beyond parody and Aberdeen seem to have got the brunt of the bad while Rangers have got the benefit of the good. It’s no wonder they have a weegie complex.

That’s not really a tackle though. The point I was making was people get cited for off the ball incidents, kick, stamps, elbows. I don’t remember any for clumsy challenges.
