The Hun press is becoming a joke! Brown did nowt - MOVE ON!
#15
I must say haven't the past 10 days, between Wed 27 Jan to yesterday, been so enlightening re Rangers FC and the highly questionable ref decisions/stats associated with their players' actions through the Scot footie season so far plus the biased coverage that emanates from a big chunk of the media/press. It all started with that Morelos stamp on Porteous on Wed 27 Jan which should've seen Rangers down to 10 men inside 18 mins of the game - a clear ref misjudgement (or other) although his view from 8 metres was unimpaired!!Thumb down Then Morelos scores the winning goal but days later given a 3 match ban by the SFA ref review panel!!??? Seven days later on Wed 3 Feb a worse 1st half offence is committed by a Rangers player, Roofe, v Saint Johnstone. I'd deem it the most horrific challenge of the season so far!! However, the referee called it a yellow card offence!!? This ref was again positioned about 8 metres from Roofe's "leg-breaker" and his view was unimpaired!!!? Rangers proceed to win the match on another 1-0 score line and benefit again from another crucial/wrong ref decision?? Days later the SFA offer a two match ban to Roofe. One can see a common theme unfolding or, as suggested by some partisan Hun fans and pundits, it is mere coincidence. The failure by Scot refs in certain matches throughout the season is glaring and definitely "open to question" - they've been given every ref decision on pks and red card offences (Scot Prem matches) since the start of the season. The only glitch was v Saint Mirren in a Scot League Cup quarter-final when a pk was finally awarded against them and they were eventually beaten for the first time - FUNNY THAT EH!!!? Rolleyes The other thing that struck me is how passive most of the Hun media and press responded to Roofe's tackle as I "went out my way" at my local newsagent to study some of the unionist "rag" reports (Thursday 4 Feb) on their match v Saint Johnstone. The deliberate "playing down" of this horrific offence was disgraceful when I reflect back to their reaction after Ryan Porteous's red card tackle on Barisic last season at ER Stadium. I'd include Rangers attempted intimidation of Porteous in that critical comparison. Another thing that struck me after that outrageous Roofe tackle was the passive post match response of the Saint Johnstone officials incl their manager, Calum Davidson!!? Were they frightened to criticise/object, are they Hun backers or is there no great team spirit/camaraderie in their squad?? Just a game of footie even though one of their players almost had his leg broken by a reckless Keimar Roofe!!? I found this response to be baffling!! Even the likes of bbc Sportsound was passive re their summary of Rangers win v Saint Johnstone - literally "airbrushed" the Roofe incident from their narrative - a total cover up of the facts and the advantage that Rangers were given again by an SFA assigned referee. I'm curious to read and listen to tomorrow's response to the Roofe ban from the same press/media people who are so disingenuous when it comes to this kinda stuff - an absolute disgrace and I'm sure we are not the only Scot footie fans up n down the country who are aware of this sham!!
