Bizarre no attempt to play the ball, both feet off the ground and knee high. Surely red? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diamond Scot Posted August 21, 2022 Share Posted August 21, 2022 2 hours ago, vanderark14 said: I'm with you on everything except the lundstram red, he is coming from behind with absolutely no chance of getting the ball, he's not sliding alongside. He is coming from behind but he doesnt go through the back. The actual contact is more akin to a flick from the side. Ie he hits the side of the hibs players foot rather than coming in via the heel. Id be amazed if it isnt overturned. Whether he has a chance of winning the ball or not doesnt factor into whether its a red or not. (He has zero chance of winning the ball). If that was a factor then every pull of the jersey from behind would be a red card as you cant win the ball with a shirt pull. Its a cynical foul but by the rules it can only be a yellow. Rangers dont deserve to win these games though which is why they wont win the league. They are far to much possession based. Great for Europe. Risky in Scotland.

Fairbairn Posted August 23, 2022 Share Posted August 23, 2022 I have to say, the EPL this season so far is the most entertaining it's been in years. It seems the refs have been instructed to let a lot more things go so we're seeing almost 90s style games with proper challenges and a lot less diving and writhing about. And in the 3 or 4 games I've seen both teams seem to want to attack so it's been much better than the pish most of them were churning out in recent seasons.

With the very limited Epl football I've seen.id agree regarding the regs but I disagree regarding the less diving and rolling about. There was plenty of it during the Man Utd v Liverpool match.

In terms of contact he's barely touched the boy and if you look at it, it looks like he's purposely done enough to just knock him off his feet. If you want to see malice and venom have a look at Ally Love's tackle on Lowry at the end of last night's B game against Dumbarton (which was only deemed a yellow btw). And I'm not claiming conspiracy before anyone piles on, just shite officiating as I've been saying for years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whilst we want to keep the physical nature of the game, we don't want skillful players being driven out or having their careers ended by hammer throwers. Really shouldn't be that difficult to achieve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure what relevance a tackle in a lower league game has to do with this one issue. Collum was right behind him and at pace the tackle would have looked knee high and malicious and believe I'm the last to stick up for collum.

Lowry was being Billy Big Bollocks the whole game, being an absolute dick towards the Dumbarton players, especially the keeper and winger, both as young as he is. You pull that in nonsense at league two level and there is only going to be one ending. Hope the kid is okay and has learned his lesson.

Denny’s Yard Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 The whole “assault on a young boy” narrative is a nonsense anyway. He isn’t 9. He is playing men’s football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangers especially have pushed for B teams in the cup and lower league. Then they get a taste of what those lower leagues can be like and it is a complete melt down.
