Tavernier getting missiles thrown at him

[Stuart_WATP]

I notice that conversation was a helluva lot shorter and quieter in commentary today? Absolute filth scum

[Sonsofwilliam1989]

I heard Celtic will now forfeit the game and we will win 3-0 because of it

Board should be out all guns blazing after they kicked up shit when it happened at Ibrox

 

[DarthVader]

Barely mentioned on Sky.

Sweep sweep

Kinda missing the point. It happens to them and it’s talked about at length. Happens to us and it’s brushed over very quickly in few seconds.

But I’m sure you already know that

 

[The Golden God]

Could tell the commentators were desperate for the camea to pan away so they could sweep it away.

Nothing but scum

You've missed my point. The post was about how quickly it was brushed over on commentary. Absolute silence. When it's the other way it's banged on about for days to come

I think he's possibly highlighting the double standards in Sky's reporting of incidents.

And when did referee's ever just throw it back on the side of the pitch.they usually hand it over to the police or 4th official

 

[GEODGC]

They have thrown missiles at our players from that corner for at least 20 years. Nothing is ever done about it.

 

[willemtway]

Looked like a hefty metal grinder

 

[Jelle1880]

Won't be mentioned again and I'd be surprised if it ends up in the official's report

 

[madridista]

This is what I picked up on, too. Seemed to be no communication with the 4th official either.

 

[thenewvr]

Didnt surprise me when you saw a foot long flare thrown on the pitch earlier after the goal.

 

[captcaveman]

Why? It should receive the same front page media headlines and Celtic fans described as "thugs" and Police Scotland to give updates as they did when it happened at Ibrox!

 

[jdm1873]

That's not the OP's point. They went on about it for ages yet it was barely mentioned. Yes fannies on both sides but treat them the same.

 

[GeeSpot]

Hopefully Tav/Rangers do what they did and make a deal of it, report to police. They'll get DNA off a grinder no problem and that area has plenty CCTV coverage. Should be easy enough to identify Juan Ghuy this time.

Sweep Sweep

 

[sr1983]

We'd still find a way of dropping points with that

No point debating with this one mate, wants to punt Rangers fans out the Broomloan for away tickets and stuff like the hanging effigies and vile songs they sing are just banter and we need thicker skin

Wee baldy fud was probably going to have a bong wi the contents.

Old firm. Is what it is. Shouldnt happen but it does. We do the same.

 

[tazzabear]

This is why we’ve lost the PR battle.
We don’t shout loud enough or for long enough when we’re the victims.

 

[TheFrenchTank]

Nothing will happen, Celtic and their scum fans who are dragged up have carte blanche to do what they please.

 

[King Baldwin IV]

Collum didn’t even give the objects to the fourth official as evidence. So, so odd (but not surprising).

Cut there allocation again next season 8oo tkts max for the scum

 

[bud_light]

Should have walked off.Hes the captain and highlight the situation to everyone

 

[rangeral]

Sky's commentary I think was a clean feed for all broadcasters taking the game

Yes they could mentioned it but there no in game voice promotion of the midweek games/final day just a caption

 

[Blu_ultra]

DNA? For something thrown at a game? I love your optimism on the competency of police Scotland.

 

[Onslow52]

Old firm. Is what it is. Shouldnt happen but it does. We do the same.

If it's 'the same' why's it not reported the same?

 

[KensingtonBlue]

North Korea would be proud of their cover ups

That said Scottish football is getting worse for this. Hibs & Hearts fans are at it now too. It only seems to be us that gets highlighted though

 

[Eck2104]

Spot on

 

[Live-It-Up]

Don’t know mate ask the SFA/teams in question.

 

[Neild79]

Ned behaviour that.
Also noticed how close some of that lot were when he was taking corner kicks.
Practically standing right next to him screaming their wee 19th Century Terrorist faces aff.
Hounds the lot of them.

 

[GeeSpot]

The problem wouldn't be the police or putting it into their DNA analysis backlog, it'd be the club or Tav reporting it and the media picking it up, which puts the scrutiny on it in the first place. If we don't, nothing will happen.

Thanks for clearing that up.

No wonder we get the pish ripped out us when this is the attitude.

 

[JudgeDread]

Our Fans get rightly slated for it - when it’s Celtic Fans - swept under the Carpet - still haven’t got the guy who hit Ricksen with the Lighter Years ago !!

 

[Stuart pid]

We need the board to be making a massive fuss over this but all the press will say is that it's sour grapes from the losers at Ibrox.

 

[Charing]

Collum didn’t even give the objects to the fourth official as evidence. So, so odd (but not surprising).

It was Collum throwing the missiles.

Big difference is that when its them its quickly forgotten about with sky etc

They care when it's our morons chucking stuff.

I noticed that aswell

 

[NHAMPTON_BEAR]

It should be called out - people doing this are just scum.

 

[skorn]

And when did referee's ever just throw it back on the side of the pitch.they usually hand it over to the police or 4th official

Exactly.
When the target of such missiles, a team captain, hands the ref articles that have been thrown onto the pitch ... and it just gets thrown away ???
Certainly worthy of some Rangers feedback you'd think.

Indeed, even as Collum tossed the items over the touchline, more and more missiles rained down over that entire corner.
Does the ref not have some duty of care to protect players in circumstances like that?
Shame that Tav didn't put his hand up to the back of his head (as many many others would have done) -- he almost certainly did get struck. It would have been difficult not to have been.

 

[L_D]

We have fans who do exactly the same, get over it, who cares.

Settle. We've had fans with waves upon waves of missiles and nothing has been said bar a paragraph. They've had a few missiles by our fans and it's been in the news for weeks. Twitter for months, tagging journalists..

They know what they're doing, I don't like it but that is what they do.

 

[RangersUK]

That’s what I thought, if that hit him that would have done damage. Those things are heavy.

 

[remembertheepoch]

But we get an hours documentary and 5 page pullout in the papers about it. Thats the difference.
