Gonzo79 13,581 Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 There's definitely an old feeling coming back. The hatred opposition fans have for Morelos tells its own story. He riles them up something rotten. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacK1950 2,230 Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 Great result and on reading the comments on the sending off I would certainly looking for it to be a sending-off if a similar thing happened against our keepers. All in all felt Madden had reasonable game today. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaffer 1,665 Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 I was on my way to the airport and made the fatal mistake of listening to the BBC radio Scotland team give their after match opinions. Quote of the year from Richard Gordon .... "Do you think Morelos gets far too much protection from referees?". His tone was clear, and I really think he is so convinced it's true. That's what we're up against people. The hatred and blindness to facts is incredible. It was worth listening to though because they just hate the fact that we are top. It was evident in every word, in every sentence, and I'm driving along thinking GIRUY. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

All we can do is keep winning and enjoy their pain 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo79 13,581 Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 The press are out to get Morelos. The boy is a bit of a hothead but he did nothing wrong today. I want to see Rangers players fight for every ball and that's what he did. Rob McLean and Michael Stewart are a pair of fuds. I briefly met Willie Johnston last Saturday and I want to see a whole team with that kind of ability and attitude. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian1964 10,409 Posted December 2, 2018 Share Posted December 2, 2018 Hearts 1-2 Rangers: It was like playing 12 men, says Craig Levein Hearts manager Craig Levein was left furious with referee Bobby Madden after losing 2-1 to Rangers, saying "it was like playing against 12 men". Levein was upset by Alfredo Morelos' winning goal, which was scored from an offside position. He also questioned the treatment of the Rangers striker, who was involved in a series of skirmishes with Hearts captain Christophe Berra. "I've lost my voice from shouting at the referee," Levein told BBC Scotland. "It was a terrible performance - it really was. How Morelos gets away with what he gets away with, I just don't understand. "It was like, as [Hibs manager] Neil Lennon said after going to Celtic Park, playing against 12 men. "How many fouls can Morelos give away without being booked? The one where he jumped into Berra off the ball, the referee said he's just a bit silly sometimes. "That's what he told one of our players. Now, if you jump into somebody, I don't care if you're silly or not, it's a booking." Match report: Hearts 1-2 Rangers Hearts were rewarded for an enterprising start at Tynecastle when Gareth McAuley knocked in an own goal from a Marcus Godinho cross. But Rangers hit back with Connor Goldson equalising from close range and Morelos delivering the decisive goal from a free kick before half-time. TV replays showed Morelos and other Rangers players were offside, with Levein left to bemoan the performance of the officials. "We've lost a few goals at set-pieces, which have been offside, like today's," he explained. "We asked the question of the referee supervisor why the linesmen keep making mistakes. He said it's easier for them if you hold the line on the 18-yard line. "We did that today and he still got it wrong. I don't know what [head of referee development] John Fleming's next suggestion will be - maybe masking sure his officials do their jobs properly." New Premiership leaders Rangers lost Scott Arfield to a second-half red card but held on to consign Hearts to their fourth successive league defeat. Despite losing more ground, Levein was pleased with his side. "I was delighted with the players, the effort after recent difficult times and everything they did to try and win," he said. "I was delighted with our support. And I felt that, on another day, that's a game we could have won. Things are difficult for us just now and the last thing we need was to play against 12 men." https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/46419364 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
