Or “no complaints” because a yellow is a yellow even technically.Disappointing from Gerrard.
All he had to say was "Technically, maybe a yellow - but, it's certainly not one applied consistently".
Pedro was right about refs - and people within the club clamped down on him.Where's the SG from Aberdeen away on the first day of last season gone?
Stevie, Gary Mac, Stewart Robertson: All good guys and more than competent, but where are our attack dogs?
Building "great" relationships with BT and Sky?
Well the last three games have been on BT and Sky and it sounds like Timmy TV (I imagine).
When are we going to start hating these cvnts as much as they hate us?
Refs. tv channels, governing bodies, print media?
They all still eem to have carte blanche to take the piss.
dont think anyone is arguing about that mate. Think its more why the letter of the law gets applied to Morelos when the Motherwell players get away with far more?What Alfie was booked and then sent off for was 2 bookable offences.
People need to start taking the Blue Specs off.
100% agree it's a sending off all day long. We can moan about past instances all we want doesn't change what's happened today and Morelos only has his self to blame. Imo a sending off was coming for him the way he was playing today.Because it's a clear as day 2nd yellow card some people need to take the blue tinted specs off and imagine you were a neutral watching it
You are chopping off half of his comments. He was very scathing about robertson
I love our gaffer.
But how can he see the double standards aimed at our centre forward then have no complaints?
I despair sometimes.
Or have I misunderstood what he meant?
He pretty much did, he said Robertson couldnt wait to send someone off - I don't know if that was on sky though. Heard him on clydeGerrard should have said, "Alfie was silly, it was a stupid gesture and I have no complaints, I just hope every other player in the league is treated the same if they make a similar gesture."
PR gurus who want us to simultaneously refuse to speak post match and call them out as cheatsThe statement writing experts out in force. cringe.
Yep. Of course the crackpots on here expect Gerrard to jump infront of the media with a dossier with detailed pictures and evidence of previous incidents involving Brown and Lennon. There’s nothing else Gerrard can say, he’s a professional.The manager is right. That was on Morelos and him alone.
Does being a professional stop you asking why the rules are not being applied to everyone? These decisions are costing Gerrard so it's in his interest to say something. Same applies to the ridiculous amount of incorrect penalty decisions made against us.Yep. Of course the crackpots on here expect Gerrard to jump infront of the media with a dossier with detailed pictures and evidence of previous incidents involving Brown and Lennon. There’s nothing else Gerrard can say, he’s a professional.
I’ve lost count how many times I have seen an opposition player doing this, especially at Ibrox all totally ignored by the officials on every occasion.Bang on man. I think lad is a bit daft and made an arse of it. If a player from another team did that we would be screaming for a yellow card.
The problem is Alfie was punished correctly so SG can't have any complaints about the 2nd booking for it.I love our gaffer.

He should have questioned why he wasnt so ready to show the cards earlier in the game when Alfie was subjected to thuggery from well players..Its poor by the Gaffer and why we keep getting shafted by these officials again and again. How many times do we need to be kicked off the pitch or done by a terrible decision like at Hampden before it sinks in that officials play a huge role in the outcome of our games as much as the teams we play against every week ?
That's not what he said.Think you have misunderstood mate. He meant he has no complaints with Alfredo.
My main criticism of him
He is unbelievably naive in media interviews
Denied 2 stonewallers
Donnelly should have had a red for the Morelos tackle
Countless players have done what Morelos done and never get booked
He said today post match Robertson couldnt wait to send someone off, and that he knew it as soon as Robertson booked Jack before 2nd half kicked off.Wish the gaffer would question some of the biased reffing out..maybe wary of getting hammered for challenging them?
People can rage all they like but taken on its own merits, that was a yellow card offence, no question.
My main bug bear is the double standards when you see what other players have gotten away with.
I'm starting to think I listened to a different one to everyone else as most people are cutting off the part where he criticised the referee, whilst complaining he didn't criticise the referee.Naive? Grow up.
Have you listened to the interview?
The victim mentality is beyond pathetic along with some of the things held against everybody.What would he hope to achieve by commenting on a sky tv interview? No matter what he said - it won’t lead to a change of events or improvement in officials
Another ridiculous thread

He did, blatantly condemned the referees handling of the match. He clearly pointed out that the ref was desperate to send someone off.Why? Its true. There are ways he could have worded his comments towards the Ref but he did need to open his mouth about the Ref's handling on this match..Its shocking he didnt
Not to mention that in order to say Celtic he has to acknowledge it was a 2nd booking for Morelos. He called out Robertson handling of the match but there is little else he can say without being brought up on charges or slated.It's almost like some people (lots in fact) just don't like Gerrard and will never accept him. Even after a very good away win they are looking for something, anything to throw at him.
It was undeniably a yellow card with the current rules. If he comes to the interview whingeing that Celtic don't get those decisions he'd look quite childish and would get slaughtered from all quarters.
Seemed to me he handled it in a professional dignified way.
There our problem, i dont think Gerrard knows fully the extent of religious prejudice against our club by officials or maybe he doesnt want to believe it for his own reasons i dont know, whatever the reason accepting decisions like those 2 yellows on Morelas is not going to eradicate it, i suppose it will make it worse.I'm really not happy with that interview. Looks like the club are just going to keep accepting being refereed to a different standard.
Gerrard does not think Catholic referees are biased against us why, i dont know why but there you go.The problem I have with this is Lego done it at end of old firm last season towards the gers fans went all the way to the compliance officer and low and behold no case to answer . What a surprise! That is what’s getting up most of our fans noses the double standards.
I love our gaffer.

Shocking from Gerrard. Flung Alfredo under the bus.
Poor from Gerrard. Really poor. We invite these decisions on ourselves with comments like that.
