Alfredo Morelos: Is the Rangers striker unplayable or unpalatable? Alfredo Morelos was a "menace" and "unplayable" against Aberdeen on Wednesday. The Rangers striker was also "a liability" and "petulant". In a fixture that seems to bring out both sides of the Colombian, he scored twice - his second a goal of admirable beauty - in the 4-2 win at Pittodrie, but was also dismissed after tangling with Scott McKenna. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/47152939

I think I said that at the beginning???, without checking maybe not!?, I thought I said Ferguson conned the ref???

I remember as a young player I was taught how to trap a player, trap his arm under your armpit, fall and drag the player with you, looks a foul all day long. It was a pen, but Ferguson used that tactic, you can clearly see him holding Tavs arm & jersey, clever but a penalty

Some fans questioning why we have signed so many players may just realise now why! our players are judged to different standards and so will be targeted more than any other team, we will need the whole squad if we are to seriously challenge ST Pats FC

Lifted from FF He can appeal against last nights Red Card.Fast Track appeals are normally held on a Thursday, but if we appeal late afternoon, it is unlikely the appeal will be held today, which would leave him free to play on Saturday, in the same way that Stewart was free to play (and score) against us for Killie earlier in the season, whilst waiting for his appeal to be heard. 4.1 Where a player is reported for a sending off offence, and that player has also been Determined by a Tribunal to have committed an additional sending off offence in the same match , or has previously been reported for a sending-off offence in the same Competition in a Season, an additional suspension of one match for each previous sending-off offence will be applied.4.2 Any additional suspension shall become effective on the 14th day following the date of the match at which the sending-off offence occurred and shall apply to the Competition where the sending off offence was reported.Page 127 of the SFAs Judicial Panel Protocol.https://www.scottishfa.co.uk/media/3999/scottish-fa-jpp-18_19.pdf

My point is Rangers are judged to different standards, that is plain to see in every match Rangers receive more scrutiny by the Rangers hating media

Of course, it happens every week in every match in every country, Ferguson was nowhere near the ball, just highlighting an incident where only one player is scrutinised

Tell you another thing, they conned the ref for their penalty, you can see Ferguson has his arm over Tavs' shoulder and holding his top when Ferguson falls he just drags Tav with him

I didn't think he did anything wrong at the time, when McKenna fell he raised his feet/legs and as you say hooked Morelos legs on the way up to kick him in the face

The bold Michael Stewart says even if you win the ball and follow through it is a red card all day long!

Agreed, Ferguson had no chance of getting that ball and could have stopped, pity he got up after it
