You're a troll, nothing more and to be honest it speaks volumes you already been on here and got your bit in to deflect attention away from another ridiculous refereeing performance in your favour.

Blowing kisses booking lol, aye I'm embarrassing myself. Grow up!

I’m a troll?

OK let’s look at our head to head games.

First game at Rugby Park I said we were denied a clear penalty on Goldson. You said that’s nonsense, nothing to see. You later changed your mind and agreed it was a penalty. Game changer against Rangers

Game at Ibrox Kilmarnock are awarded a penalty. You said it was 100% a stonewaller. You couldn’t believe it was even up for debate. I said No Penalty as he’s done everything to keep arm at side. SFA independent panel rule it a clear VAR mistake and no penalty.

Last night I said it’s not a penalty with Lundstram as his elbow is tight to body at impact BUT I can understand why referee gives it as after impact the power of cross knocks his arm away from body which may make it look as if his arms away from body. I am hoping once you’ve seen it again you’d agree. Inexcusable for VAR not to see that. Sky Sports panel were laughing at how ridiculous it was and even our good ‘friends’ at BBC highlighted why not a penalty

I am not doing a great job at trolling as i highlighted the second half incident which for me is 50/50. Certainly more a shout than the one you got.

If I was trolling I’d be screaming for the Findlay handball that I thought was never a penalty. After seeing it again I’ve seen them given but not overly upset at not getting it. Mayo’s is just so blatant but thankfully didn’t cost us anything

I’m not going over your Red card claims as they are nothing incidents. Barisic was rightly booked for the pull back.

As for Danny Armstrong. I ve said I like him as a player and he does push boundaries, as he did last night, he’s an annoying little shit. I also don’t believe he should have been punished I was merely pointing out if you want to nitpick over the smallest offence how ridiculous it can get.

Thanks for the European well wishes. Unfortunately I believe you’ll get your wish as Benfica , although a little up and down, are as tough as we could have got.

Anyway I genuinely wish your team all the best for the rest of the season. I’ve said many times how much I admire the job McInnes has done and has to be in with a shout at a manager of the year nomination.

But get the pitch so far tae fuck!!!

In short I genuinely call it as I see it. More often than not I’m correct but even when I’m wrong it’s an honest opinion
 
Bobby Maddens take on the Lundstram Penalty..

“Easy to understand the live decision due to where arm position finishes. At the point of contact the arm is tight to the body and the defender does not make themself bigger. Difficult to understand why an on field review wasn’t suggested and a still of the point of contact presented to the referee. If I can identify that image on my phone, VAR should be able to find it with a system that’s costing the clubs well over a million a year”…..

Almost word for word my take on it!
 
As i had zero intention of watching either of the 'ugly sisters' in the cup last night i decided to watch Livingston Vs Motherwell, a ground 80% empty, pissing it down, plastic pitch and quality akin to Hough End, it was character building and brought out my masochist tendencies, not many budding Jim Baxter's, Jimmy Johnstone's on show last night i have to say.

Lennon Miller for Motherwell is actually a very highly rated youngster. No idea how he played on that dreadful playing surface but many top teams are keeping tabs on him

Livingston look doomed to be playing in Championship next season. Not sure you could have picked a worse game to watch but I belief Ross County v St Mirren the night before pushed it pretty close. We don’t do ourselves in favour promoting our domestic league

You got something right at last. It’s not a red card. It’s not even a foul.

Well done you

Glad to see our manager calling them out and will be looking for answers from the authorities.

As I say, a complete troll. I'll happily engage on here with any old firm fan who offers something sensible to a conversation, you're certainly not one of them. I've posted a clear image of a clear foul and you retort that it's not and proceed to post a blurred image with zero context.

You continue to bark at the moon as you wish, blocked.

I don't disagree with most of that, but I suppose it's a consequence of our appalling deal with our appalling sponsor (Sky). They provide pittance to our game and only give a shite about two clubs. Their choices of televised matches over the early part of the season means that because of TV allocations, we don't get to see the games which most of us would want to at this key stage.

I believe (but may stand corrected) that post split there's a chance of a huge match between Livi and Ross County but it won't have the opportunity to be televised. Likewise last season with Killie Vs Dundee Utd and Ross County during the last 2 games of the season when all 3 had the unfortunate possibility of finishing anywhere between 10th and 12th.

Sky are a disgrace to our game and when you look at last night's card and the fixture which almost had to be picked for TV it speaks volumes why the games on its arse.
