Rangers fans tend to sing songs that annoy Celtic fans regardless of who they are playing, as witnessed last week. This is not the thread for discussing anything other than football though so we'll leave it there.
 
Celts come from behind and win 3-1 against a very impressive Hamilton Accies side. They started off like they did indeed have something to prove and thoroughly deserved their lead, Celts proved too strong though and ran out easy winners in the end.

Celts go top due to better goal difference. Hail Hal.
 
More than one penalty was waved away. Just what do Celtic have to suffer to get a penalty as today's performance from the officials was nothing short of shocking.

I was very pleased to see us walk away with all three points. The forward line was looking very composed and but for the officials and the woodwork, the scorline would have been even greater.

In all fairness Eddie I think McDonald done the right thing if the linesman told him what we all suspect.

Referee had a better view of what happened and immediately points to the spot.

Linesman zips down to the corner flag only to saunter back up in-line with the 18 yard box and call the referee over.

If the linesman saw the keeper get a touch first then why did he immediately head for the corner flag?

The officials where nothing short of incompetent and I'll never believe a word Dallas says as according to him, referees are infallible and never make a mistake unless it's an honest one eh?

I don't blame Collum for messing up the penalty decision as he was blind sided but what I find more disturbing is that the other officials where silent on the matter whereas they have been pretty quick to alert the referee about penalty claims in recent weeks.

Rangers deserved their win as Celtic's tactics seemed to go nowhere in the second half. I feel that the penalty may become rather important come the end of the season when it may boil down to goal difference.
 
McRod, I would rather keep this confined to PM's but since you asked. You continually make multiple posts within seconds of each other instead of combining them into one single post. This looks like you are trying to up your post count or it is simply laziness on your part, to combine quotes in one single post?
 
Tinfioil hats not required. Just because you are paranoid, it doesn't mean they aren't out to get you.

Do you remember when Rangers where going for ten-in-a-row and where playing Killie at Ibrox? Only two games remained to see who would win the league, Celtic or Rangers. Bobby Tait, a known Rangers supporter, asked to officiate at the game as it was to be his last before he retired. Rangers needed a win and with the score 0-0 at full-time the referee was happy to allow quite a bit of injury time in an effort to give Rangers time to score the winner. Kilmarnock upset the party by scoring in the 8th minute of added time and if I remember correctly, the whistle wasn't blown until 15 minutes had passed. I rest my case.

omg, an example from 10 years to show the depth of the paranoia you suffer from. :D

It really is hilarious. :)

So, in your opinion, a glaring example from ten years ago isn't relevent? It just goes to show how blinkered our friends in the south of Glasgow are. Yes, it is hilarious to see how that example backfired isn't it? :D

Oh, and two posts in two minutes again. Post uppage. Deny, deflect, deny again. :rolleyes:
 
Did I mention anywhere outside of Scotland? Although, we have been on the end of some very dubious decisions in Europe against the likes of Arsenal, AC Milan and Juventus but I'll put that down to players conning the ref and not the ref conning the players as is what has happened here in recent weeks.

I give a glaring example of the dubiety of Scottish referees and you dismiss it because it happened ten years ago. I could also point out Mike McCurry's dodgy diisplay in the game Rangers had against Dundee United two years ago. Legitimate goal and a stone wall penalty denied to allow Rangers to gather up all three points. Last season, 9 out of 12 managers complained about referees in games involving their team playing Rangers. Take off those blue tinted specs please.

Adversity only makes the victory taste sweeter.
 
In the last few seasons, how many times have Celtic suffered from 'honest mistakes' in games against Rangers? If there was nothing to complain about then Celtic wouldn't question the refs decisions. Corruption is endemic when you considere how far back it goes.

Do I really need to post a picture of Tiny Wharton giving a masonic handshake to John Greig as he was about to officiate at a Rangers game? Knowing that something is seriously wrong at the SFA does not mean you are paranoid.
