I never judge incidents on stills because that's stupid. In my footballing universe, none of them would've been fouls and anyone in favour of VAR would be shot on sight but alas, nobody cares what I think. Should also mention that Celtc FC would be outlawed.

It's not a new thing that goalies are given far more protection from officials than outfield players. Touch a goalie and it's pretty much automatically a foul. There are always instances of grabbing and shoving, involving attackers and defenders, at corner kicks, most of which aren't penalised.

Another thing the yahoos are better at than us - the dark arts (on and off the pitch).

Another transfer window full of Shankland chat. Oh goody!

Leeds v Southampton on just now. We want Leeds to win, as we get a payment if Kamara goes up.

If you think the refs are biased, just state that. I think the referees are of a poor standard and make questionable decisions on a fairly regular basis. I also think some of them are scared to give big decisions against Celtc due to years of clever PR from Paedo FC and constant threats from their scummy fanbase. I also think some of the hysterical responses to certain decisions that don't go our way do us no favours, as we just fall squarely into the 'two cheeks of the same arse' insult we're regularly subjected to by the rest of Scottish football.

Sounds more like a good guy. 😉

Shoving a keeper will often result in a free kick. Keepers are more protected than outfield players - that's widely known amongst the vast majority of people who watch football.

Using speech marks to refer to Raskin's push on Hart just invalidates the claim. He very clearly had two hands on him and gave him a shove. If we're going to raise concerns about officials, let's do it with evidence and facts and not make stuff up.

There are no sugar daddies. The trick is to utilise our resources better. Bringing Beale in as manager has cost us this season.

Clement was quick enough to send him out on loan, so I suspect he will be happy to sell (as would any sensible person).

Apart from Diomande, I wouldn't miss a single player. The main focus should be clearing out the likes of Tav, Goldson and Lundstram, as well as bringing in some more effective attackers.

Why not? This is a forum where we air our opinions about football, so there's no point skirting around the issue.

Just get to the point. Do you think the SFA officials are biased against Rangers: yes or no?

Fair enough. VAR and the over-focus on referees are just another couple of reasons why football is less enjoyable than it was in the past.

There are always mini fouls at set pieces. Goalies are over-protected and that's the case globally and has been for years. We need to pick our fights carefully, otherwise we just get accused of paranoia.

F*ck knows. Back on course, there were certainly some poor decisions today but I don't think VAR chopping the goal off was one of them. The two involving Sterling (him not getting the free kick and the booking) were both shocking decisions.

So Raskin was being fouled and fouling Hart simultaneously. Goalies always get protected more than outfield players. Raskin shouldn't have given the VAR team such an easy decision to make.

I've seen a few people saying this. A foul is a foul. If a player trips up an opposition player when the ball is 20ft away, it's still a foul, regardless of where the ball is.

Understandable.

If there are options, I have no idea why anyone would listen to Liam McLeod commentating on anything. The pitch he talks at is quite painful to listen to - sounds like a dying puppy.

Jesus wept. He's not good enough and that's that. Could barely get a game for Aberdeen.

Whenever I see him starting or coming on, my heart sinks.

A hard one to take. Overall it was quite an even game but we were on top when they scored. In all honesty though, we never really looked like scoring and lacked conviction up front. I hope Cantwell and Silva were tired, otherwise swapping them for Wright and Matondo were both odd moves. I'm glad the season is over. Hopefully Scotland give us a few laughs over the Summer and we can clear out a large number of this squad of perennial losers.

Looks like Raskin and Diamonde in midfield, with Sterling wide right again. What is it they say about doing the same thing, over and over and expecting different results...groan.
