That was a tough week and it wasn’t hard to imagine the pall bearer being called at 2:20pm on Saturday afternoon.

He wasn’t needed.

As I sat watching the game, I was gripped by the feeling of deja vu, I was watching a game that I had seen before. The same turgid concoction of misplaced passes and defenders hoofing. It was exactly the type of game that if it wasn’t involving us I would have switched over.

It actually reminded me of every R*ngers game I have watched this season.

I will take the luck we were afforded. The sending off was harsh and unjust. In our predicament I will take it and point to if the MIB had done his job properly then The ‘Senkie full back would have walked for a foul on Forrest and The Man Like A Tree would have been running the yellow card tight rope for 75 mins.

The game was lit up by two wonderful goals from Tony Stokes and a few standing up like a man performances.

    What makes you say the sending off was harsh and unjust, a player has a look at his opponent as the ball comes over he slaps his opponent in the face not once but twice how is this harsh or unjust, let’s not make this incident into something that it wasn’t that’s what the Mankie Scottish are for.
    How many times have we Celtic fc suffered from harsh bookings sending offs.
    Hopefully if this incident proves anything it means the officials are starting to be honest.
    Just watch the media get upset over an honest mistake in Celtics favour.

    In real time, it looked a stonewaller. The player looked and lead with his arm. Numerous replay’s have proved that it wasn’t as malicous as it seemed though HE DID lead with his arm. It’s a booking.

    Like you say we have complained, bitterly, about numerous unjust decisions. If this was against us I’m sure we would be complaining as well.

    All this proves is that the MIB’s are terrble in this country and nothing to do with them being honest.

    I can guarantee Rangers won’t have a decision like that go against them this entire season. We were getting them weekly for 2 seasons.

    When you think back to Mogga’s (is it ok now to refer to him as Mogga as calling him Mowbray always sounded formal and if we were angry with him?) first 6 months the amount of honest mistakes was unreal.

    I felt it would have been a harsh booking tbh. I’ll take whatever rub o’ tha green we can get right now bhoys to claw back the deficit.

    Big game on Wednesday… Need to win this game in hand and again at the weekend to put some pressure on the manky mob.

    The guy jumped knowing he wasn`t going to win. He raised his arm and was far too close to Sammi. He was asking the ref to make a decision.
    If you see Rob MacLean jump up on him in the same way and see if he`s still laughing. :-)
