I just watched bbc highlights of Rangers win v Aberdeen and "fair dos" to the referee, Madden, who finally sent off Morelos but I think he had no choice to do that anyway. Prior to that, and throughout the match, Morelos was "playing"/fouling Aberdeen defenders - looking at the player, not the ball, and cynically fouling late!! Then we see a horrendous studded challenge by McGregor on Lewis Ferguson, a "leg breaker" and a "stonewall pk" when the score was 2-3!! Nothing done by Madden!!!??? This is after the 4 x pk Dallas awards at Ibronx - a farce!! I notice Lewis Ferguson dished out some retribution to a goalie who has 'history" re this kinda offence!! I would've taken more than a yellow card if he did that to me and he wouldn't be walking off the pitch!! But there is a huge alarm "ringing" among lotsa Scot footie fans re Scot refs and their role in favouring Rangers with "big decisions"!! It is highly suspicious!!
Sevco are appealing the morelos red card
Because they know they will prob "get away with it" Jim!!! Look at the past few months of Rangers players who have been consistently reprieved - some of it is highly suspicious!!
I forgot to mention re the same match that even the McKenna hand ball incident was covered in ref controversy as Goldson, who headed the ball off McKenna's arm that was claiming offside, moved back from an offside position - another AR who conveniently ignored offside this time instead of ignoring when fouled players are actually positioned outside the pen box. I notice Steve Clarke's comment re ref inconsistency criticised by Stevie G but Clarke rightly pointing no names were mentioned and the theme of his conversation was glaring inconsistency re similar offences. He should've just said there is a clear bias if the offender is a Rangers player!! Then Stevie G can have something to "chew on"!
If that red gets overturned there is no justice. Not only did he go in with his foot ... twice from what I could see ... he wasn't fouled himself. I think the only card that should be rescinded is the Aberdeen lad's. Hope Morelos' ban is extended.
Wowwww! Morelos red card upheld Amelia and a 3 game ban imposed by the SFA! Justice done! Now for McGregor - 2 match ban!
Incredible that for once the SFA did the right thing.
McGregor has also been long due a ban for his sneaky kick outs.
A wee bit of "pressure" from the footie community finally paid off!?
Nah mate, I actually reckon Dallas jnrs insane performance v st Mirren left them no room to manoeuvre. Otherwise Morelos would have walked free.
At the end of the day madden not sending off McGregor and awarding that clear pk for Aberdeen has probably kept sevco in the title race. They know full and well what they are doing.
I agree re that end line! Notice the big decisions that have "bailed out" the huns and indeed kept them in the title race. Madden is a cheat and proved it before in certain Rangers games with again some pro Rangers decisions that either gave them an advantage or ensured the opposition were not given that "life line" or advantage! There is a number of SFA officials who are trying so hard to keep Rangers in the title race and a lotta Scot footie fans are observing these efforts and are aware of what is actually going on as the inconsistency is absolutely glaring!! I actually think it is a "mixture" of bias, incompetence and intimidation as well!! Just an opinion but I reckon it is a fairly accurate observation.
