The only thing I saw that was debatable was the SJ players trip on Lundstram could have been a 2nd yellow.Fair enough Ed, I wasn't sure. One of those that looked worse than it was then. I thought Jacko took a bad one.

Kevin Clancy is a cheat.These constant accusations about every ref being a cheat are embarrassing.
So you’re basically saying he cheated then?All the refs do Celtic and our opponents wee favours over the season, its not anything knew has been this way for a while.
He is a good ref, we dont have crap refs ive no idea where folk get that idea from, what they do is protect themselves from the media by doing a wee bit of rule bending at certain times ... like today when he was going to book the defender then thought hold on hes already got a yellow. If its our player then hes off.
OP is talking pish. What did the ref do wrong today?
Madden will be doing Premiership matches soon! He’s a FIFA rated Referee and he’ll get bumped up pretty soon IMO. Just don’t think they can throw him into the top division right away.He should clear off to England and do lower league games like Jobby Madden.
Not long after that in the first half he gave a foul against Borna for something very similar - if it is a foul outside the box it is a foul inside the box.Could have been a penalty on Colak
The second yellow for Montgomery
Keeper with the ball outside his box
Getting in the way of play for them, very poor positioning
St. Johnstone player was protecting the ball on the deck and we should have got the foul
Not the worst today but not the greatest either.

I'm not saying he's a cheat, just totally inconsistent. Others have posted on this thread other examples.
I was in line with it and he was clearly out the box. Can't blame the ref for this one, no way he could be sure from where he was. The linesman on the other hand was shite. It's his job to see these incidents.Didn't look outside the box on the replay on RangersTV.
And he gave us the Colak offside goal - so not all bad.
Exactly my thoughts but you get the exact same threads every single week, regardless of who it is and what the result was.Barely even noticed him tbh, wasn’t that bad.
He is an RC who works in a multi faith school because he won't get promotion in a sectarian RC school because of his personal lifestyleHe is
Well known that he is.
Yes I did as it’s tedious nowBut you came in to have a go????
3 games we have won then?Three league games in . Three RC celtic minded refs. Dodgy decisions in each game. No doubt collum will be next in line to try and stop us.
If you read the thread, don't think many were ott about it. We can discuss refs without being blindly accusative. Well, not for Clancy but he IS a cheating cnut.Yes I did as it’s tedious now
Collum retired I'm sureThree league games in . Three RC celtic minded refs. Dodgy decisions in each game. No doubt collum will be next in line to try and stop us.
I’m going by the replays on RangersTV mate. Didn’t look out to me. I was a bit surprised Walsh didn’t give a foul for impeding the ‘keeper.I was in line with it and he was clearly out the box. Can't blame the ref for this one, no way he could be sure from where he was. The linesman on the other hand was shite. It's his job to see these incidents.
Ball wasnt passed forward so no offsideWhen Matondo got his toe to it Colak was in an offside position. Came back onside to put it away but should still have been called as an offside. For once, and probably only the once, we got the break. VAR would have disallowed it.
That’s the rules from years ago mate. Doesn’t matter these days. Colak was in an offside position when the ball was played and came back to score the goal.Ball wasnt passed forward so no offside
He’d have given a foul against Lundstrum for the goalkeeper one of required though.Keeper running about outside the box with the ball in his hand
The push on matondo in the box followed by a pass back
Bizarre refereeing
Hope you're correct. Frightened to think he could be in charge of var.Collum retired I'm sure
You post on a lot of these threads too(the quieter ones) and say over and over every one of them is crap, is that not quite disrespectful towards the refs ?Exactly my thoughts but you get the exact same threads every single week, regardless of who it is and what the result was.
We have had some crap refs in Europe as well but they can’t be accused of being cheats, in Celtics pocket, part of a conspiracy etc, so less gets said about that.
Really.I don't think he had a bad game today.
What did he do wrong? Only thing I can think is maybe he should have given Montgomery a second yellow, but even then I think it would have been harshReally.
Given that the ball wasn’t played forward, I don’t think he was offside at all mate. Watch it again. Matondo gets across and puts his foot it enough to as you say tie the ball across and back to Colak. The ball doesn’t move forward.When Matondo got his toe to it Colak was in an offside position. Came back onside to put it away but should still have been called as an offside. For once, and probably only the once, we got the break. VAR would have disallowed it.
Doesn’t matter if the ball goes forward or not mate. It’s the position of the player and whether he becomes ‘active’ that matters, nothing else. I posted the rules in post #26 of the thread below. Funny thread, with all the varying degrees of ‘knowledge’.Given that the ball wasn’t played forward, I don’t think he was offside at all mate. Watch it again.

I’ll agree to disagree. In fifty odd years of watching and playing the game I’ve gone with the rule the ball must move forward. A player cannot be offside from a cut back. And never once have I been challenged on that.Doesn’t matter if the ball goes forward or not mate. It’s the position of the player and whether he becomes ‘active’ that matters, nothing else.

ball goes backwards (edit. Doesn't matter. If the player is coming from an offside position the direction of the pass doesn't matter. In this instance to ball was played by Matondo and not by the St Johnstone player. ) you should be put on VAR :)www.followfollow.com
To be fair mate that’s the 2nd week in a row an opposition player has been allowed to be subbed instead of sent off. Players take note of these things.
The HIVS will no doubt be flying into our players next week.
You have now, and you're wrong.I’ll agree to disagree. In fifty odd years of watching and playing the game I’ve gone with the rule the ball must move forward. A player cannot be offside from a cut back. And never once have I been challenged on that.
You’re not alone in taking that attitude. However, put simply, it’s wrong. He was in an offside position when the ball was played (which isn’t an offence) but as soon as he becomes ‘active’ after moving back onside he commits an offence.I’ll agree to disagree.

Let’s not forget the card for Goldson pulling back the St J player but when exactly the same thing happened to Matondo earlier in the game, just a foul, this is how the refs cost us suspensions of our best players a tactic I have noticed is in full flow already. I doubt they would be carded for those fouls seeing as year on year they have the lowest card count yet the among the highest fouls hmm.Keeper running about outside the box with the ball in his hand

As I say you can’t be offside from a cutback. If he was offside earlier in the move and not given then tough.You have now, and you're wrong.
Read the rule and we can all move on and accept the rules are the rules.
Today we got a decision in our favour (in difficult circumstances for the linesman).
Well take it, because we don't get many.
The cut back part isn't offside if the ball was ahead of the receiving player. Todays circumstances are quite rare, although we have had it twice in 2 league games.
