Jack was stupid as he gave the referee (or whoever made the decision) something to think about but don’t lose focus that he was sent off due to simulation.

Again, is pushing someone now a red card offence? Or is it the movement (not contact) of the head which is now a red card?

Should you get sent off for pushing someone?

So if he can’t see it then how can he send him off? It isn’t body swerving the real problems - Rangers were poor and should have done better but there is no avoiding the fact that Rangers were, yet again, victims of, at best, incompetent refereeing.

Whilst that may be true, there is literally no argument that the ref’s farcical actions at the end didn’t have a direct impact on Kilmarnock getting the draw.

You could argue that it wasn’t a red but a yellow. But the ref never even gave a yellow.

Jack was jack was stupid moving his head forward like that, especially after the last time but what the hell is the red thinking. What made him change his mind? Broadfoot is an actual disgrace. He should have been booked for the penalty and then also sent off as he would have got a yellow for the incident with Jack. Rangers have themselves to blame more than the Motherwell game but again, we have the most bizarre officiating against us. Even that at the end where the ref stopped the game early on a corner to us. It is just absolutely mind boggling.

Some awful station like Rangers TV? More money to the club I say.

I had the misfortune of briefly listening to the Clyde phone in last night. It is incredible how much of an agenda there is on the programme. It was obvious that the guy who was running it had been told to downplay the Cardiso incident. On numerous occasions he referred to Moult getting a cut eye and Cardoso receiving a “bloody nose”. Not once was it mentioned that his nose had actually been badly broken. It was obvious that this was the message being hammered home. Do they do this off their own back or are they paid by someone to push this agenda?

The sad thing is that we’ve been saying that for ages now.

Well done Rangers for finally speaking up.

Absolutely unbelievable. You think things can’t get anymore farcical then they do. Is this Alvez getting punished for daring to speak out about the cheating referees?

I was really hoping he would make a comment about our players being protected. Are we now relying on Brendan F*cking Rodgers having to highlight the disgraceful treatment of our players by the referees?

I find it pretty hilarious that they beat Dormund, who were nominated for taking in Monaco fans affected by a terrorist event. They won it for a shitey display of an event that their club embarrassingly holds onto. Let’s not forgot that this was the same season that they hung effigies of a religious group from their stand. I don’t think that low point has been matched anywhere in Europe in recent memory. Imagine one of the Polish teams had hung effigies of Jews?

So if it is a yellow for the first one then why is it not a yellow for the second?

Exactly. That is what I think - what is the point with a new manager when he will face the same problem.

Most games this season have had dubious refereeing decisions against us - win, lose or draw. The only non-controversial game I can remember is the 0-0 draw with Hearts at Ibrox.

Don’t forget, he never just got away with it, Tavernier was booked for it.

I’m going to make a prediction - I bet once Celtic have a very comfortable lead in the league, we start to see a lot of decisions coming our way.-

Absolutely spot on.

We had a ban on away fans for the apparent singing on a naughty song. They really must have some sort on influence behind the scenes at UEFA.

Did the Moult incident happen before or after Cardoso?

So after Celtic’s victory at the weekend, Rogers has come out and slated the referee. In a match that Rangers should have been playing against 9 men at most, why are we not out lambasting the referee? Rodgers can do it with no consequence so why the hell are we not doing it week-in, week-out as pretty much every game has been an absolute disgrace, culminating with one of our players suffering a serious broken nose. We NEED to start speaking out. There is absolutely no point in continuing to play if we don’t. I would actually be delighted if Rangers states they were sitting out the next match until our players can be guaranteed adequate protection via an official overseeing the game to the rules.

Nah, only joking, they got fined £9k, not much more than we got fined for throwing paper balls onto the pitch. It really is a strange one how they are not only protected nationally but also internationally.
