Always found it strange that Hogg and Levein only received 10 game bans and Ferguson a 12 game ban. Both incidents were within months of each other.

Think Big Dunc already had previous tbf
Remember when City signed Mick McCarthy? Apparently loads of first division teams wanted him but decided to swerve because loads in the game were convinced he was prison-bound for nutting some lad from Oldham, Derek Parker? Fractured his cheekbone iirc
Case ended up going nowhere in the end, though I think there might’ve been a subsequent civil action

Ferguson already had two convictions but the incident he was sent down for was less than the incident involving the two Hearts players, which was treated more leniently by the footballing authorities.

Never heard that about McCarthy, but he was hard as mahogany.

Ferguson had a poor disciplinary record as well.
Plus Levein punched the rag **** a couple of times.lol.

That fella needs to be sacked. I totally get it, the fact he'll be pissed off at conceding a 99th minute equaliser in an "old firm" game. I'd be pissed off as well (I still remember the feeling when Owen scored on a different day to win a derby. But you just can't go around handing out Glasgow kisses like that. He's in a position of authority (on the coaching staffl, FFS. And he's had the brass neck to deny that he did it!

It wasn’t me. Reality is never overflowing. Beale the new Messiah, the old messiah’s tactical genius. This denial doesn’t surprise me though. I’m just waiting on Alonso being pulled up for incitement by wearing a natty Italian coat.

Wow, your back, I knew you couldn't stay away. ;-)

Look how inactive the Celtic and Rangers threads were without you!

I was taking a break. I kept looking in and noticed it had all gone to shit. I thought, fuck sake this place has lost its vim and vigour. As you know Gunner, I’m all about the vim and vigour. :) Hope you’re well.

You are joking, right ?
Celtic are the least carded team in Scotland by miles. Probably Britain as well and perhaps Western Europe.
I don’t ever remember Rangers playing Hearts and committing the same number of fouls and Rangers receiving no cards at all while Hearts got 3 yellows and 2 reds. Which of course happened to you this season in the East end of Glasgow.

Celtc supporting Refs give them everything and Rangers supporting Refs are petrified to give any big decisions to Rangers as the mhedia witch-hunt will not be far behind

Fuck me, obviously got your script delivered this morning. I could put up a days worth of clips showing how your brethren refs have never failed to answer the call with a penalty, a sending off and that’s just this season.

Bottom line is you are still pish regardless of how the latest Messiah is being heralded by sevconian hacks.

Heard it all before, Warbutton, Batman, Ginger Top, Portuguese Man of Pish, Slippy the one in a dozen man, now Bealin the genius behind the Slip.

Every time one of the above pricks had ascended the marble staircase we have heard how you are the best, what you are going to do.

One season we implode, not one of you saw a game live in a stadium. We return and your back where you started, 2nd. You better buckle up for another span of choking in our dust. It’s already here.

Given the lesser greens last game, they are in no position to complain about dodgy refs.

One game? What about Rangers getting all those penalties and we attack more and score more? It’s an anomaly I would be grateful if you took a stab at explaining.
 
Check out those Celtic refs giving Rangers a hard time. A fucking joke. Rangers player handles the ball blatantly, nothing to see, goes anywhere near an opposition player, Penalty to Rangers. Take away the penalties and you would be 20 points behind. But even with this blatant cheating we are still miles ahead.

This is why Celtic are against VAR. Officials can look and give clear decisions whereas previously referees in Scotland knew they had to give them the benefit of the doubt every single time in case television replays later proved them wrong. Which always meant their media friends accusing them of bias, bigotry and calls for them to be demoted or sacked. All on the front pages.

A crackpot Internet conspiracy theory if ever there was one
Totally contradicting the facts of course

Celtc concede 0-2 penalties per season pre VAR, this season 7 already, when the rules are applied

All good here, I'm an Arsenal fan this season rather than Rangers of course! Glad to see you back, hope your well and looking forward to a wee spar again going forward! ;-)
