It would have been amazing to win it at Celtic Park but its going to be done by then due to goal difference If it's still technically possible for them to beat us it then an official Parkhead title win is still on the cards. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frankie 8,570 Posted March 4, 2021 Author Share Posted March 4, 2021 Watching the highlights of last night's match back on RTV and worth nothing the game was stopped for around 90secs when Reilly went off injured, yet there was only 64secs of stoppage time before Beaton blew for HT despite a crude foul on Aribo at the edge of the box (which I don't think he even gave). Add in at least two fairly clear penalties denied by Beaton, then I don't blame the manager for showing his frustration during and after the game. It's not always easy for the officials but fair time-keeping is a basic principle and the Itten claim was as clear as they get. It's too easy to point the finger at officials after a bad result but Rangers managed to win the game in spite of them yesterday and in spite of some agricultural fouls from the home side. As such the manager quite right to take umbrage and it's difficult to resist calls for VAR. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoohBear 1,148 Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 I think Gerrard was right, but he should know that it was a battle that he'd never win at that moment. Perhaps he's not bothered about being sent off though. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Frankie 8,570 Posted March 4, 2021 Author Popular Post Share Posted March 4, 2021 Also, wanted to make a point about our players' fitness. Last night Livi (understandably to a degree) were done after 60-70mins. They couldn't maintain their press and retreated into a lower block. Meanwhile, we still had both full backs galloping up and down the flanks whilst it was Kamara and Davis that were in the box to help us score. Given the number of games we've played this season (44 since August 1st last year so an average of 7 games a month) and the CV19 factor, the conditioning and fitness performance of our squad really is fantastic. We hear a lot about Gerrard, Beale and even Tom Culshaw but a bit less about Jordan Milsom and the medical staff who have clearly done as much as anyone else to help maintain this title challenge. Kudos to all involved in what remains a team effort. 11 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Hellander was fouled at the chance he put over the bar. Var would have given a pen and possibly a red there. I make it 3 pens personally. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil's advocaat 1,543 Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Absolutely, our conditioning has been the launch platform for everything we've done this year. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dead right, i only wish Alfie had collided with their keeper rather than try to straddle him leaving no doubt to the outcome which would have been a pen and red card to the goalie. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A draw or a win at the Piggery would then make it offically ours. The Scum have 67 points, with 7 games remaining. We`ve got 85 points and a win on Saturday would push us to 88. They can get a maximum of 21 points, should they win all games, i.e. a maximum 88. Should they fail to win on Sunday, their maximum would fall short of 88 ... I wouldn`t put it pass them not to win on Sunday, so we won`t win the title at their midden. Then again, maybe they muster some courage and try to get us to Scumhut and hope they can get some pride beating us there. In any case, it is just a matter of time. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
