Old Firm Ref Appointment EDIT - Beaton to Ref

Make no mistake. There will be a major game-changing incident in this game on Sunday. Beaton will get media plaudits if its against us, or be publicly annihilated for weeks on end in the same media if its against them.
Lets just hope he gets the call correct then, that's the most important part, not the aftermath afterwards.
 
Or he's past caring or worrying about them after rodgers named him v Hearts.
I think he'll ref to the best of his ability and we'll get the 50/50's then the rats on var will step in.
It's fine for VAR to step in, I'm all for it. The ref gets a better look and can make a more informed decision. That would be the ref's preference as well if he makes the wrong call. It's all about the Rangers and what we do. It's no use us claiming it's all about the Rangers if pantywetters in here want to make it all about the ref before a ball is even kicked.
 
Had a wee look at the dark side to see their thoughts on the officials appointment for Sunday.

What’s telling is the serious lack of examples they have of injustices in OF games.

Bassey getting a soft free kick 2 years ago and Morelos getting away with a couple of bookable offences 6 years ago is genuinely as much as they can muster.

I can only imagine them if they had two perfectly good opening goals chopped off in the last year alone, and if our players were getting away with constant second yellow offences like theirs did in the last game.

Just about every OF from the last two years has at least one absolute howler going in their favour.
You only need to look at the last calendar year's worth of League Games

2-3 Piggery - Morelos goal chopped off by Clancy blowing for foul on Johnston before ball went in. VAR unable to check.

3-0 Ibrox - Nothing controversial in that game as we swatted them aside.

0-1 Ibrox - Offside goal (correctly) ruled out in 1st Min, Dessers 'foul' given by VAR to chop off Roofe goal, Maeda gets away wth 'late' tackle on Tav with no booking, Maeda forearm smashes Cantwell with no VAR check nor a booking.

1-2 Piggery - Johnston swats ball away from Sima, no penalty, no check from Walsh due to Collum's arrogance and phantom 'offside' later found due to all Sky pundits including Neil Lennon criticising the decision. Johnston, Bernardo and McGregor not sent off for 2nd bookable challenges.

If any of the above had gone against Celtic in just ONE game, there would have been summits called and sacrifices made.

Eh?
 
The future rangers v celtic matches should be refereed by neutral officials from outwith the uk. If our refs cry wolf,then they should be told plain and simply,you're biased,you're incompetent and you're not good enough for this particular fixture.
Chill. We've managed for 150 years with Scottish refs. They've also been deemed not good enough every one of those 150 years. Play on and if you can't win that's on you.
 
Does anyone know what the tinkers are saying to this on the puddle board. Bet they are saying it's a conspiracy.
 
When Beaton refs the game, he loses control of it, the decisions are inconsistent & often players are endangered because of what he lets go. He's a f*cking disgrace who shouldn't be trust to ref yer wean's games on a Saturday morning.


But apart fae that, he's a nice guy
You do realise you are describing every one of the current crop?


FWIW - I thought Beaton was decent in the game where Jack scored. Took 2 days for Rodgers to feel aggrieved.

I watched a recent Edinburgh derby where he was decent.

The decisions he highlighted in the Hearts-Celtic game were correct! It was a red. It was technically a penalty.

Something to watch for on Sunday is Sutton stirring the faeces! He has previous - and with Beaton too.

If Beaton did give us a decision which Rodgers didn't like - I think he would be absolutely hammered if he criticised him again. And the refs would be up in arms.

I've a feeling that when they make the film about this game it will be titled 'Four Bheggars and an Imbecile'

Look at the image that BBC Scotland have used.

Fucking embarrassing, yet again.
 
Just seen a Tim posting on Facebook that Nick Walsh is Rangers supporter saying he was a PE teacher and a coach at rangers academy for kids and Column ain’t one of them. He also posted pictures of Beaton at the crown bar in bellshill.
They seem to forget we call him cheating Beaton
People on both sides put their own spin on every ref in the country and it’s the same pish every time these games roll around. Truth is these refs are just shite at their part time jobs.

Wish it was C3ltic supporting ref as according to Peter 'the pointer' Grant he would give everything to us B-D Met J Beaton when he worked at my work as a student never gave me the impression he was Gers man. I think he wanted to be sports journalist so that def does not put him in our camp!!
 
I understand the logic but they’ve already shown they aren’t afraid to pull a bent decision out the hat at Ibrox. They just aren’t afraid of us the same way they are afraid of that mob. If we lose on Sunday and it’s due to a shocking decision, we will be raging, club will put a statement out, media will quash it, onto the next. Operation stop Rangers winning the league is in full flow and Saturday just emphasised the proof of that.
This ^ ^ ^
 
Beaton will be under intense pressure on Sunday. The other handpicked officials will remind him what is expected of him.
 
I still can't get it round my head that at the previous OF game there were FOUR septic-supporting officials and not a peep from the press.
 
STV have it in their headlines for their 6pm news programme.
Same as BBC Scotland this afternoon (and most likely tonight again).

Beaton being put under severe pressure - he'd be better to just quit now.
 
Off the park this has been one of the most boring and exhausting seasons I can remember.

Just rampant irrational gibberish, lunatics speaking on behalf of every club in Scotland.

Where's the enjoyment or fun for these people in watching this sport?

Popped on my broswer on edge. Nom idea who Eric Knott (Knut,K unt) is but presume thi is the start of the media manipulation for Sunday
 
It is quite mad the way that as soon as our fans moan about a ref someone always brings up a decision we got a while back that upset them. One will do any one just one is enough. Well there you go that evens it up and add some crap timothy said on his forum or in my work. Really crazy behaviour.
 
Could be Beatons last ever game if we win.

They won't accept that we just beat them on the day and will 100% blame Beaton regardless if he does anything wrong or not.

It won't be worth his while refereeing again if we win this weekend.
 
An absolute shite bag referee who'll know tow to celtic pressure surrounded by the league of known sympathisers.should be an afternoon of strange decisions,VAR chaos and blatant cheating. Well still win and sicken many many hateful trash.
Beaton will be intimidated in the dressing room before the game and he'll know any close calls in our favour will be overturned in by the var cheats. Linesmens flag up as soon as we look dangerous will be a problem.

When has a referee ever packed in the game completely after an individual football match in Scotland? You could maybe argue Dougie McDonald but he continued until he got told he wasn't required any more.

No danger Beaton is packing in reffing after Sunday. The guys at the top of his profession in the country atm.
 
Irrespective of who gets appointed Rangers players will get bookings for things that Callum McGregor & co. get away with all the time.

And IF it is Beaton, the pressure to furk Rangers over will be intense to say the least

Why should the guy, really..??!

That vermin have threatened him, made public his phone number, address(I think) and endangered his family. Their club officials have bawbaged the man too. He should be as strict as he can with them and completely run them to every rule.

They refs should be harder on the Paedos than any other team in the league considering how they've been frontrunners, by a distance, treating the officials deplorably.

The pressure this year is higher than ever with the new champions league.

If we win his windows will be smashed and his family threatened no doubt and alot of media attention.

He got hounded for recommending a red card for a fly kick to the head against Hearts.
 
Beaton won’t cheat, he’s just not very good. It’s the VAR refs I’m more concerned about, they have time to work out if they’ll get away with cheating.

The refs know from the start the pressure that comes with the job. No danger Beaton quits even if he is hounded after Sunday. It's a short career in a job they have worked extremely hard to get into the position they are in.

As I said earlier, both sides of the divide would be paranoid, come up with conspiracy reasons and say it is a terrible appointment regardless of who the ref was for Sunday. Personally the ref should be an afterthought if we bring our A game.

Saw that. A referee appointment making the news headlines. When does that ever happen? Not like it's a slow news week!

The VAR team can only ask the ref to have another look, it's the ref who makes the call. The referee's decision is final, same as always. Intae them Rangers, no excuses about refs. Go and win a game of football when you have home advantage. That is it.

They can ignore things as well, remember.

Furuhashi dive, ref gives penalty, VAR ignore the dive. I’ll give you evens.
 
Guaranteed beaton will be the last non catholic celtic supporting referee we get this season. And he's shite.and a shitebag who'll do his best to stay on the safety side of them and their press pals
 
John Beaton did not bring Robertson's attention to the embarrassing penalty GIFTED to Celtic against Hearts - which still worries me!!!!

Perhaps that's why he brought Robertson's attention the other 2 incidents -and clearly Robertson felt he had to make an HONEST decision.

We need to win well to eliminate the rogue-ref factor.

Only a ROGUE SFA would involve ANY of the past disputed officials for this game!!!!

Who would you have then? You’re not getting foreign refs, so who of the current Scottish cohort do you want?

Holy nervous, panic stricken, flapping birds batman. I can taste the fear from you from here mate. Don't behave like this in real life. Steady. Chill. We're ready for this game. We have confidence, belief and better players. And we're at home. It is up to us to go and win and if we don't it's new players we need not new refs.
 
Beaton is a terrible referee. The SFA might think it makes them look strong to appoint him but when we win the Beaton and his family had better go straight on holiday. Not much can be done for their house.
 
Why do folk honestly post stuff like they got messages and they heard from a reliable source it's Collum :))

At least they didn't say they would give money to charity if they were wrong about something though, and then not pay it.

Like you did.

And the vermin will show themselves as the lunatics they are. Let’s get them pumped and take the ref out of it. If they react badly after a defeat with little controversy it will demonstrate their entitlement for all to see.
 
What’s the craic with the “John Beaton drinks in a Rangers pub” conspiracy chat they come out with then?

I’ve seen an out of context picture where he looks about 15 years younger do a lot of heavy lifting for their theory he’s a big Rangers fan :D

I’m assuming Beaton had a couple of drinks in a bar one night. Said bar happens to have a Rangers bus leave from it. Beaton then never drank there again and over the course of his life he’s probably happened to be in a bar where a Celtic bus left from. He has no interest in either but the Tims and their confirmation bias have latched onto something that is irrelevant to feed their conspiracy. Is that it or is there more to it?

I live in the same estate as Beaton (and Mulvanney) and about 2 miles away from the pub that Beaton was pictured in, and any idea that he goes there to drink with Rangers fans is a fucking farce.
