The Scottish FA are likely to review an incident that let to a penalty for Rangers in their 2-1 win over Dunfermline, BBC Scotland has learned.

 

Pars manager Jim McIntyre claimed Rangers' Sone Aluko dived to with the spot-kick, converted by Nikica Jelavic.

 

Alleged simulation can be processed using the SFA's fast-track procedures and compliance officer Vincent Lunny is expected to review the incident.

 

A decision would be made on Monday at the earliest.

 

The penalty was awarded by referee Steve Conroy when Rangers were already a goal up, with Martin Hardie the player penalised.

 

However after Jelavic netted, Joe Cardle pulled one back for the Dunfermline to set up a tense second half.

And the talk on the radio about this horrific piece of Rangers cheating worries me that he'll be judged by Jughead Clarkson and taken out and shot.

 

septic players never dive by the way, huh!

If he did dive then he should be punished. The SFA simulation panel will be busy because players dive all the time.

Maybe they should investigate this one as well

Zero problem with this being investigated - it was a dive and it should be reprimanded as such. But the discrepancy that other similar cases don't always get hauled up is a little disquieting.

Yeah, I doubt we'll be hearing much from this panel in the future.

Does this mean that the SFA are going to investigate every penalty?.

Only ones which involve Rangers.

 

Who actually reports these things to the SFA ?
