Rousseau 10,679 Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 I'm expecting a wee something in the post from Beale for taking the fans' ire away from him. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoohBear 1,148 Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 (edited) If you make contact with a player like that whilst you aren’t in control of the ball, arm on shoulder and tangling the feet then there is every opportunity for the ref to call a foul. I think it was soft but calling it cheating is nonsensical to me. Edited September 3, 2023 by PoohBear 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
yuddie 1,693 Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Well that's wraps for the title then - only a huge new manager bounce gets us back in contention from here imo. Absolutely baffling approach and the players looked like they didn't know what to do either - it was a 4-3- 3 by the looks of it, with the front 3 pressing and the midfield 3 hanging back to evacuate the midfield as best they could. Fucking tragic. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was soft but calling it cheating is nonsensical to me. He didn't call it a foul. He allowed it and there was nothing clear and obvious to suggest he should change his decision (other than his obvious allegiances) 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't, but we had a similar goal overturned for the same in game scenario with Morelos v Dortmund if I recall correctly. It's not a howler and it's been applied before so I can understand it, I just don't agree with it. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rousseau 10,679 Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Just now, Bluedell said: Where do you think the foul was? I just don't see anything. The Celtic player, in control of the ball, is in the process of kicking (connecting with) the ball and Dessers trips him. It's a foul, for me. When I first saw it, I thought, that'll be chalked off. I'm not aggrieved. I could be wrong - I dont know the rules - but it's certainly not cheating, IMO. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RANGERRAB 3,687 Posted September 3, 2023 Share Posted September 3, 2023 Did the VAR ref call Robertson over to have a look at it? It looked to me at the time he’d given the goal. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
