The Only Thing Dodgy About the Penalty was the ref’s hesitation

[Tormusk1872]

The hesitation shown by Beaton to award it. I thought he was going to let it go, he obviously knew that he would be pillared by everybody and their granny if he gave it and he therefore gave it a moment or two thought before pointing to the spot. Correct decision and we’ll done to him.

Atleast he took a few seconds to think about it in the past he rushed his decisions and got it wrong

 

[Pistonarms]

What about Portious theatrics to him when he awarded it

 

[ChildOfGoth]

Was Porteous carded ? Don’t think he was

 

[shawlandsbear]

Totally agree

 

[Zapp Brannigan]

The fact Beaton awarded us a penalty tells you there was no doubt about it.

 

[The_Degan]

What about Portious theatrics to him when he awarded it

Aye but he obviously got the ball , think that’s what he was claiming anyways

 

[WDYGH]

Longer than Celtc fans thought before going balls deep in their sisters.

He’s been in a very similar position before, Morelos vs Aberdeen, just as close to it and got it wrong. I thought he was getting ready to do it all over again.

 

[daven37]

I wonder if the rhabids will set a detective on him to monitor his movements.

 

[The Goalie]

Last 2 games he's been in charge of us he has given us a result changing penalty in the last 10 minutes. Not a fan of beaton but he had not a bad game tonight for both teams

 

[Tormusk1872]

I hope they stake out the Crown Bar in Bellshill. That would be as much a waste of money as getting an advert printed in French in a German speaking newspaper.

 

[OnTheWay]

The first thought that genuinely went through my head was that he knew it was a stonewaller but paused to keep the tims on edge before sending them into timplosion.

I prefer to see it that way tbh.

 

[Dofek]

The fact Beaton awarded us a penalty tells you there was no doubt about it.

And the fact Andy walker agreed confirmed it.

 

[Luthgibear]

Why didn't McGinn get booked for screaming in Beatons face?

 

[LC1872]

People trying to argue against a penalty being awarded tonight is up there with one of the most embarrassing things in Scottish football over the last few years. It is so so blatant

 

[Britannia89]

He definitely took a few seconds longer than needed. Was he waiting for confirmation from his assistants if they thought it was a Pen? Considering he was yards from it I thought it strange.

I understand your point but it shows you where we are at when we are saying well done to this guy for not cheating us yet again.

 

[Melbbear]

was an egg of a desision ||||||||||| sorry .

 

[Gibraltar Loyal]

I thought he took a second or two to see if ball was going to fall to a Rangers player to play advantage.

 

[contiva]

Thought he got it spot on if I'm honest - lulling porteous into a false sense of security that he had got away with it and then going for the kill and awarding it..... absolutely brilliant....

Thanks for the explanation John, was wondering what the pause was all about before you pointed to the spot.

 

[Mount_Bear]

Probably the best domestic refereeing performance we've seen this season. Fair play to him.

That's the thing about Beaton - he can go from top refereeing one game to the most atrocious, amateur, downright dangerous performance the next. Think he could be a top ref if he had the benefit of full time in this country. As it stands he's so wildly inconsistent he can't be trusted.

Crown for a pint? We've got a lock in

Watch Porteous screaming at Kemar when he took the penalty.

[SCG]

Why didn't McGinn get booked for screaming in Beatons face?

He did

 

[WDYGH]

Why didn't McGinn get booked for screaming in Beatons face?

For the same reason he didn’t get booked for kicking the ball away in the first half.

 

[The Goalie]

He did

not at the penalty, later on

 

[delboi]

What about Portious theatrics to him when he awarded it

I thought he was trying to win a pen at one point. Almost fell over

 

[TheHound1872]

McGinn’s reaction would be used as porn if he wasn’t the ugliest man in football.

They say us getting a stonewaller is “cheating”.

When the real cheating would be if he DIDNT award it.

It's a change from his usual cowardly decisions. Free kick on penalty box line v Aberdeen to completely ignoring some stonewallers

 

[temperance]

Jack Ross says “it’s soft, I would be looking to get it if it was my team, but Kent went down too easy, I’m disappointed the ref gave it” . Make your mind up ffs.

He really is an unlikable twat.

Agreed felt like forever waiting on him pointing to the spot. Made the correct call I the end.

 

[ChildOfGoth]

It’s funny to think that Porteous told himself that wasnt a foul there’s something of a void in his brain I think . He challenged Kent when the ball was about half a yard to his left and challenged left to right ie entirely off line and off balance .

Is he the type of guy that would go round the doors asking folk for there empties

 

[bilkobear]

What about Portious theatrics to him when he awarded it

I thought them hilarious and quite pathetic in equal measure.

 

[Texas ranger]

Funnily enough when the teams were coming back out for the second half Beaton came out of the tunnel laughing along with Porteous. I thought, I wonder what the contentious decision will be with Porteous in this half and who’ll be laughing. Sure as fate he’s involved again.

 

[Stuart pid]

He definitely took a few seconds longer than needed. Was he waiting for confirmation from his assistants if they thought it was a Pen? Considering he was yards from it I thought it strange.

Maybe playing advantage?

 

[Stuart pid]

Was Porteous carded ? Don’t think he was

Nope.

It was the Scottish Government, that were to blame, for the, hesitancy LOL

 

[cooperman]

if that pen was not given, the media would then say it was a pen, but just brush it off in their reporting

 

[Buffalobluebear]

You say that like there’s a possibility they won’t. it’s probably already been arranged

 

[jigster]

" Scottish football needs VAR "


Words you won't hear in regards to our penalty last night

 

[Chopper1974]

Was Porteous carded ? Don’t think he was

No cause i had porteus to get booked and 1st goal roofe on a coupon…..was raging!!

 

[nybear]

He did

he booked in the 94 minute

 

[Mr Wilton]

His hesitation reminded me of the Aberdeen away game a couple of seasons ago where he gave it outside the box!

 

[hms]

McGinn’s reaction would be used as porn if he wasn’t the ugliest man in football.

There another 2 that’s equally as ugly and funnily enough both are his brothers.

 

[Relentless]

Jack Ross said if it was up in the other end he'd be looking for it, but because it was at his end he thought it was a soft penalty. Just sums up Scottish football..

 

[Mr Wilton]

Jack Ross says “it’s soft, I would be looking to get it if it was my team, but Kent went down too easy, I’m disappointed the ref gave it” . Make your mind up ffs.

Of course if it were Boyle he’d still be rolling around! A soft penalty is one where it’s difficult to tell the contact. There’s no disputing he left his leg in and took Kent down. Just cause he didn’t wipe him out doesn’t mean it’s soft!
