Soft, but you would have been screaming for it if it was at the other end.


Stokes should have walked for the assault on Papac in the first minute. Samaras cheeky wee knee in the back of McGregors head, Ki's assault on Naismith all missed by the ref... from our point of view, maybe McCulloch was lucky to stay on.

Thought the referee was very inconsistent, but at the end of the day Rangers were the better team.


Not surprising to see TLB already moaning about the ref. Celtic FC never defeated always cheated.

I said above the referee was good and was fair but the penalty decision was poor and everyone on Sky said the same, former Rangers players included.


Best team won. But the referee made an honest mistake at a key time on the penalty.


Can't say fairer than that and I won't get involved with you in tit for tat.


Can you let us all know what TLB means?

Thats terrible. No matter what your sporting affiliation may be, you can't condone such mindless behaviour. As Chris Kamara would say, Unbelievable!!!!! Celtic should at least issue a statement condemning such behaviour.

It happens on both sides. Both Celtic and Rangers have bigoted elements to their support. I don't think that is any secret.


Obviously the police will track these people down and convict them, if at all possible.


Hugh Dallas once had his windows broken after refereeing an Old Firm game and he said he knew who had done it. It was his neighbour who was a Celtic fan and he was round the next day to fix his windows and apologise. No charges were pressed. Its depressing that these things happen but thats how heated things can become on Old Firm days in a city split by religion.

I know Rangers fans aren't angels... but all this threatening refs does seem to come down a one-way street...


As you quite rightly mention MM - Hugh Dallas was a victim.

There has also been George McBride, Jim McCluskey and the Private Detective, Dougie McDonald and now these two most recent cases.

The SFA have to act... Lennon, in a position of responsibility, should not be making public remarks about referees in the lead up to the game.

He's also just written to the SFA to complain about Sunday. Who the hell does he think he is????

With spurs defensive problems it's hard to see how they can keep a clean sheet. Spurs must be praying that Bale doesn't get injured, without him they may get another tonking.

    • Big recommendation for Stephen Viccary who has created a magnificent bathroom for us. Quality of work is absolutely top notch. We couldn't be happier - see pics.  Stephen is considerate and tidy meaning working from home during the work was fine (some noise - obviously, it is a demo and installation after all. He does not work on multiple jobs, does a full days work and does ALL the work himself - Tiling, plumbing, lighting (including lighting on a motion sensor under the vanity and in the shower niche - for night time visits 😉), he even changed the door architraves, sorted the badly cracked ceiling and did all the paint work. A full end to end service. Stephen's number - 07941 266 145
    • Highly recommend Dulwich Eco Gardening.  When he came to quote Saied said he’d give our garden back so we could decide what we do next.  Under two weeks of hard work from Saied and Mo and we have the garden back and can see paving I’d forgotten about. Not only did Saied remove our very overgrown greenery. Nature had taken over. He also took back to our fence line overgrown ivy, apple and pear trees and and dealt with a neighbours bamboo that had invaded our garden.  We are now going to get quotes for what we do next so those quoting will be able to see the space.  Saied has suggested someone to quote and will be coming back when he does in case he has any questions or they can work together.  I thought Saied would be a good choice and he was. Quotes from others didn’t leave me with confidence for the end result. That was never a concern with Saied.
    • Having a BBQ (fingers crossed) in 2 weeks and need a small BBQ for veggie bits and any spare benches or garden tables and chairs to borrow to add to mine. Any going? Thanks in advance...
