Shafted By Appeal Tribunal


Recommended Posts


I said they wouldn't overturn it, I imagine McInnes knew that too but wanted Hayes for the Hamilton game to give the best chance of going 5 points clear. Also why Parker and Pawlett got a run out to see who to play on Sunday on the left Parker/Pawlett/Rooney or possibly Shinnie if he brings Flood into the middle.

Disgraceful decision. I suppose we should have expected the SPFL to punish us for beating their beloved tims.

 

This will just make it all the sweeter when we win the league. Did it in the face of blatant corruption from SFA/SPFL.

 

McLaughlin should be moved to the right wing based on his performance against Hamilton, he looked pretty good going forward.

100% expected it though after the victims greeting about the SFA conspiracy against them. This may sound hypocritical but the tackle really was not a red card & the fact that (with the benefit of so many TV angles) they can still effectively say it was a certain red card is (like you say) disgraceful but all it does is highlight the fact that they really do not give a shite about upsetting anyone except the ugly sister.

Had that been Scot Brown that card would have been overturned without any doubt.

Had that been Scott Brown, we'd have had a player booked for simulation.

I don't remember seeing any angle that actually shows it to be a good tackle nor a bad tackle to be fair

 

In which case they are always coming down on the side of the Ref - if he remains convinced then without clear evidence otherwise (and I haven't seen any) they will side with the ref

Lol but true really

I don't think it's a conspiracy or bias, it's just incompetent weegies.

 

If were as serious about challenging as we say we are, we should have the strength in depth to deal with it for the next 2 games.

There is that but you cannot help thinking that they were backed into a corner for fear of the "conspiracy theorists" that it was only a matter of time would surface.

The angle from the DD/MS corner showed his legs were bent in & he basically only caught him with a knee & took the ball. Was a 50/50 tackle which he won. Lustig cheated & he knows he did.

So it's now illegal to win the ball and follow through with a knee in a sliding tackle?

 

Aye ok, Nae bother.

It is depending on who you are & how much media backing you can rely on

 

The break will do him good, wasn't playing at his best the other night as well, we won't miss him.

Will certainly do him good. A few players could do with a week off at this moment but he will be a big miss. Would much rather he was just "rested" for the Hibs game.

Think we have more than enough quality to rest players for the Hibs game but we need our best players for League duty in this run of games.

 

As has been said though, hopefully it just galvanises the team on Sun.

Would have expected the ban upheld had it benefitted the huns somehow - I guess the SFA are defering to the other Glasgow team in their absence.

 

Its a blow, but as Oxford Don says its a chance for someone else to shine and stake a claim for a regular staring berth.

You have it completely wrong.

 

Glasgow itself is corrupt. It is implemented to help BOTH sides in equal measure, to ensure hegemony.

 

Anything else is just weegie whataboutery, the SFA help BOTH teams, as do the referees.

I don't think that's how these appeal processes work, though.

 

I'm pretty sure it's not the case that the review panel sit down and look at the incident as if they had never seen it before and had no idea of the outcome. They are there to find justification for the referee's decision. If they can find anything that does so, they'll use that to uphold the decision.

 

I would imagine that in this case, it is perhaps the speed that which Hayes goes into the challenge, in a crunch-like manner, that Thomson has deemed worthy of using excessive force (given the distance he is from the ball, the distance he is from Lustig, the position of their respective bodies too). The panel will have understood this, taking into consideration Thomson's position at the time too.

 

Personally however, I don't think this should have been a red card. Yellow for me at worst. The disciplinary panel might have felt the same, but I'm positive it is the process above that they've to follow.
