That all said, it’s been a sh1t season for Aberdeen and Mcinnes has a massive rebuilding job in the summer following some very poor transfers in the last year. I’d still rather he was our manager than not. I will revisit this opinion in September. I admire your tolerance Defoe man hugging Ferguson a nano-second prior to the first (cough) penalty / TV evidencing an offside 'goal' as being, well, 'offside' is lost on them (You can kick people though, that's fine) We're rubbish to watch for sure - The kinda stuff that would make your eyes bleed Milne & McInnes are spinning a lot of plates right now, and the natives are far from happy with the shyte they are coming away with Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a bellend. His team had lost before the start of the game thanks to his tactics but to deflect the blame away he'll just point at the ref. Hopefully a friendly visit to the SFA disciplinary committee will be forthcoming. All managers need to stop this blame shite and just accept when their team is second best. Just act like grown ups for a wee change. I can see both sides of this. By all accounts Aberdeen were dung and never laid a glove on Rangers, but ultimately the game was decided by 2 penalties, one debatable, one not even close. Aberdeen also have another player unavailable next week due to the 2nd yellow for Considine. So I can see why Mcinnes is frustrated with the officiating. Whether Aberdeen deserved anything from the game is a different matter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately the biggest offenders are Rangers and Aberdeen . The Aberdeen team are, and have been for years, relative experts when it comes to gamesmanship/cheating. 90% of their game consist of niggling fouls, dives and shinnie complaining to the referee. Unfortunately this time.they have been outdone. Cant say I'll shed a tear. Fly with the craws and all that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However any Aberdeen wrapping up todays result as an illustration of Scottish Football being corrupt are utterly deluded. That was a game where we totally dominated Aberdeen from start to finish. Defoe smacking Lewis in the gob wasn't even debatable in your world? Right you are Colonel Blink. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Farcity Posted April 30, 2019 Share Posted April 30, 2019 20 hours ago, RenfrewBlue said: I disagree. Lewis saw Defoe coming and decided to leavea bit on him, maybe because he thought Defoe was going to do that to him. I also think Defoe was trying to give Lewis a whack, although probably not in the face rather than being defensive. Maybe I'm seeing aggression where there is none but that's what it looked like to me. At which point did Lewis "leave a bit on him"? Serious question as I just watched it back and he just doesn't. At least pretend eh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest I have no real issue with that either as it's meant to be a man's game. Defoe obviously had intended catching the keeper but realised he was about to get thumped himself, hence the flailing hand. So either book them both or tell them to behave. It wasnt the biggest mistake the ref made though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your own manager was calling a conspiracy for years against rangers after ONE game of the season. Maybe your own mob should get the house in order before criticising others.

It wasnt the biggest mistake the ref made though. Lewis had to run out to catch the ball, he collided with Defoe just as he caught it. If Lewis had slowed down to avoid a collision, he wouldn’t have caught the ball. He didn’t catch the ball, then take a sidestep towards Defoe in order to make sure he hit him. We’ve been in the end of some bewildering and extraordinary refereeing decisions this season. I thought Mcinnes had called Katic out for cheating. I didn’t hear him call the ref out but I’m not surprised if he did - there’s no way those two pens are given save for two teams. It’s time ref’s were called out for such weakness.
