Francis Connor - Cheating Linesman

[BlueNoseBlueblood]

That’s the kind of decision that has won them the league. They get them regularly.

Helped them....we tossed it away too

 

[Crispy Bacon]

Not if they’ve already stopped play

They can’t stop an offside until the attack is stopped if VAR is there. They then check it after.

 

[Davie Weir]

No we hadn't. It was knocked back to the edge of the box. In any case it's irrelevant, why bring it up?

Fair enough I thought we had. As I said, terrible decision.

 

[Brisy]

Absolute cheating c**nts...one of the worst decisions I've ever seen

 

[Angrybluebear]

Performance of officials v Hibs

Interesting stats when Frank Connor's involved in our games.

[Aragorn]

This is where VAR helps

Trouble is even with VAR this wouldn't have been over turned unless we had scored...Does anyone in 'charge' actually look at these decisions at the end of the season ans realize some of the officials are just shoite.

 

[TNT]

5 subs?

6.

3 each.

 

[hms]

Sakala gave them the option by stopping as if he thought he was offside
Stupidity

 

[rtid]

We need VAR asap. That linesman has done us so many times.

 

[Hurleyreyes]

Not if they’ve already stopped play

They're instructed to allow until breaks down or a goal.

Won't stop them ignoring and forgetting though I suppose.

 

[Macky]

This is why the VAR rule of the linesman keeping their flags down until the move ends is going to help us. That linesman was blatanly cheating. Maeda was a mile offside in first half and he never flagged either.

 

[T WATP]

6.

3 each.

They made 4 changes, there was another delay for Abada coming on

They do

 

[Kilwinnin Bluenose]

Helped them....we tossed it away too

Aye but maybe if we’d been given the penalty we should have had at Tannadice things would be different?

It has all gone that mob’s way this season. They play shite they get help.

He’s a cheat.

 

[The Predator]

We need to publicly call this cheat out.

 

[DNA1872]

Frank Connor again? He needs called out on this.

Our clubs needs to call it out , enough is enough

 

[WDYGH]

Not if they’ve already stopped play

True but there will instruction to let play flow, as you see in England.

Only a cheating bast@rd like this linesman will continue to serve his own interests.

 

[Allovereurope]

Stupidity

Connor didnt need the option. He was always giving his side it

 

[Derek76]

Oh don't worry guys am sure our club will call them out

 

[Napsburybear]

I hope head of the referees has a look at this and the linesman is demoted.
Won't hold my breath.

 

[TPP]

The cheating lady's front bottom had about 4 of these.

 

[Gstq93]

Was there not a poster on here saying he stays in the same street as him and he’s even said he gives Celtic afew let offs ?

 

[HowdenEnder]

Must be due a medal this year, along with Clancy.

 

[PortoyMortoy]

It's the same two linesmen always being talked about, they had a couple blatant offside today that were not flagged and then the one at the end with Sakala was. Var has to be brought in for the start of the season, i hate to think about what kind of offside decisions are and aren't going to be given when the linesmen have their blaze of glory before most of their influence is taken away.

 

[Doakes Loyal]

Where does his windows live?

Asking for a friend.

 

[CaliforniaBlue1872]

An absolutely horrendous decision

 

[sg9375]

Another honest mistake.
Why are our players and manager not charging at this lady's front bottom.

 

[Henry Hill]

They won't stop it. And if so VAR overrules.

That’s what should happen aye

 

[Family bam]

He had a few today.

Cheating bastard.

 

[CrunchBear]

Trouble is even with VAR this wouldn't have been over turned unless we had scored...Does anyone in 'charge' actually look at these decisions at the end of the season ans realize some of the officials are just shoite.

But wouldn't they play on and not call it? In case it does go in?

 

[ALittleBitOfTheBubbly]

This is where VAR helps

VAR doesn't make a difference in that situation.

He made the call. It's not as if they'd use VAR to review it and bring it back to a drop ball.

 

[strathavenbear]

I asked on the match thread if it was him. The one that he let go in the first half was just as bad

 

[Shengus Malengus]

First of all you can’t be offside if it’s an opposing player that plays the ball anyway

You could forgive a linesman for not spotting that. It wasn't clear.

There is absolutely no excuse for not seeing the beast on the ground playing everyone onside.

Blatant cheating.

 

[Caldow3]

Connor should never officiate any game again. He's a cheat. Simple as that.

 

[Alan Johnson]

Up there with the Maeda offside at the semi final at Hampden,cheating,corrupt bastards.

 

[strathavenbear]

VAR doesn't make a difference in that situation.

He made the call. It's not as if they'd use VAR to review it and bring it back to a drop ball.

It does as he shouldn't flag until the move is over.

 

[Cooperwasgod]

VAR will show the cheating bead rattler up next season
An absolute cheat

 

[Shengus Malengus]

VAR doesn't make a difference in that situation.

He made the call. It's not as if they'd use VAR to review it and bring it back to a drop ball.

It does if Sakala pokes it away. He never got that chance.

 

[DMac]

Very strange decision by the linesman who seems to make them on a regular basis, always for the advantage of one team

 

[Abacab]

VAR doesn't make a difference in that situation.

He made the call. It's not as if they'd use VAR to review it and bring it back to a drop ball.

But he couldn’t get away with throwing his flag up. As that isn’t protocol.

If he did, then I’d expect Rangers to go for him. But our board always take the dignified silence route.

 

[RWL12]

Sakala gave them the option by stopping as if he thought he was offside
Stupidity

Maybe he saw the flag up

 

[goaaaal]

A crucial point in the game and their Patsy's come to their rescue .

Disgraceful We should be rightly scunnered at their blatant cheating .

 

[tottie beck]

I couldn't believe that play was stopped. We should be putting in an official complain against this guy and make sure he is nowhere near the top flight next season

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

He seems to be disproportionately involved in Celtic games.

 

[Careca]

Roll on var. He should have to explain that.

Lying there well before the next phase of play.

Blatant flag to stop us getting a last chance shot away.

 

[longtallsally]

Came on to post this. Between Maeda being offside by 3 full yards in the cup game to him being clearly offside on 2 occasions today, and us bring penalised for being onside today. Its certainly ramped up the past few weeks and needs highlighted. This is a big year for Celtic and everyone seems to be pulling in the right direction for them to maximise their cash prior to the decision of the class action.

 

[WinkieWATP]

Blatant cheating.

The prick also stood infront of Tav when we got a corner. Only ever seen that twice both against us

From a few years back. The linesman version of Clancy.

 

[WinkieWATP]

Sakala gave them the option by stopping as if he thought he was offside
Stupidity

He was holding the defender off so Wright could run on the ball to shoot I thought?
