0-1 Rangers. 

 

Tavernier with a well-taken penalty. He sure can strike a ball!

Penalty Rangers. 

 

Should that not be a red card, for denying a goal-scoring opportunity?

See post 48 from Mr Bluedell.

I think after the Stokes attack on Tavernier last season it will take maybe a stabbing to get a red card when playing against Rangers.

Jersey tugged in the act of shooting at goal, a red card?

[Rousseau 9,382]

Blow the whistle ref!

 

It's running down the inside of my leg...

I'm debating with myself whether I even want to watch this anymore. It's ruined as an even contest and can tell us little about our team going forward.

I think it’s telling us a lot. Last seasons team would have crumbled.

I note that both BBC Radio Scotland and Sky TV are at pains NOT to mention the name of the Assistant Referee that flagged for the ordering off of Morelos.

 

Chris McLaughlin has confirmed through the auspices of Fourth Official, Don Robertson that Morelos was dismissed for violent conduct.

[Frankie 8,151]

Disgraceful officiating again at Pittodrie - not sure there's any point in us turning up with 11 men there.

 

Morelos was stupid to react but it was never a red card and the Aberdeen player's shove was equally physical but fine according to the Sky commentators which is laughable.

 

Credit to the manager and players though: they remained composed and too their chance when it come with the penalty.  The rules have changed when it comes to such situations but Ball wasn't even booked which is utterly bizarre.

 

A long 45mins ahead.

It is also telling us that Aberdeen are piss poor.

The once much vaunted Mcinnes has a lot to do at HT.
