BrahimHemdani 1 Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 (edited) I apologise if this has already been discussed on the main thread about today's game (sorry, can't be bothered reading all the pages to find out) but did anyone else see this incident? After approx 38 minutes in the first half Griffiths slipped and fell when contesting possession with Wallace on the touch line and the ball went out for a throw in about in line with Rangers penalty box on the main stand side. When he got up Griffiths made an offensive gesture with a bent arm and his other fist, directed straight at the Rangers fans behind the goal. He was roundly booed most every time he was on the ball thereafter. It is very difficult to believe that this was not seen by the stand side linesman but no action was taken. Hopefully Mr Vincent Lunny will be investigating first thing on Monday morning. Edited December 10, 2011 by BrahimHemdani 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

After approx 38 minutes in the first half Wotherspoon slipped and fell when contesting possession with Wallace on the touch line and the ball went out for a throw in about in line with Rangers penalty box on the main stand side.

Burley wasn't sure if it was made to the supporters or McCoist. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest superrcooper7 Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 I don't see why it shouldn't be investigated; after all, he wears the wrong green top to be swept away. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was directly facing it and it was definitely made at the spectators behind the goal who he was facing at the time. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

forlanssister 3,114 Posted December 10, 2011 Share Posted December 10, 2011 I was directly facing it and it was definitely made at the spectators behind the goal who he was facing at the time. Definitely was aimed at us, though I don't think it was really worth taking offence at I do concede if it was one of our players it would be all over the phone-ins and on the front pages in the morning such is the society we find ourselves now living in. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
