That's what they said. Need to see it again but was a clear hand ball 

Yeah, definite handball. I only saw it pretty quick. Looked like inside the box. Maybe not though, need to see it back. 

Not that it matters now, cunts 👍

[Matt Armstrong's Dog]

Fuckibg VAR!!!

You cheating, corrupt, odious bastard.🤬

[starryfish]

Much better without Shinnie

[Dad]

A shit mistake aside - a solid half 👍 

Give it to Bojan

[TheRedPrawcess]

Why does Mulgrew look like he's 27ft next to Crichton and Sutherland?

[Zeus]

Given every fucking week. See the Huns in Dingwall last week. Course it was in the box 

 

Miovski was world class in that half. Best player in the world 

 

 

[Andy_123]

Good half that. A million miles better than I was expecting.

A stupid mistake and a questionable VAR call away from being 2-0 up at ht is a position I never thought we’d be in

[ebbe1985]

You would think by the way that wank faddy and the wee arsehole beside him that we are playing prime Brazil. 
 

all I have seen this half is they are not a great Celtic team. They are dangerous but no fucking way are we being outplayed.

delighted we are in at 1-1. 

[CarrotCake]

That's a decent first half and hopefully gives confidence to everyone that we can win this. 

Looking forward to seeing whether that scales handball was in the box or not.

Re Duk, definitely lost a yard of pace and is frustrating when you know what he is capable of but he does offer an outlet and as we have seen before, he can produce decisive moments. 

Get Clarkson on the ball and Miovski/ McGrath/ Duk running off and we will get at least one more great chance. 

COYR

 

[DelMonte]

Miovski is the best striker I’ve seen in my years watching Aberdeen. Unbelievable today so far.

[a don in oz]

They're not trying to say Celtic have outplayed us surely?

[virtualmontana]

That was a penalty.

If that's against us , it would have been given.

 

Fucking scam.

[DelMonte]

It’s not conclusive it’s in the box. Good decision for me. If it was in the box they’d have to give it but it’s stupid that is a penalty nowadays.

Aye?  Need a good memory like?

[alscotoz]

Only watched since just before since just before Celtic scored. We're playing well. Should we have had a penalty?

Miovski is such a good player

[moray1903]

Best 45mins I've seen us play in months. More in the 2nd half please 

[RedArmyFakshun]

scales was in the box.  a penalty up the other end

and kuhn pushed macdonald in the back.  a foul up the other end.

WOW. WOWWWW

NOTHING GIVEN!@?!? The guy swatted the ball away with his FUCKING HAND. It wasn't arm or anything. His hand!

Any handball in the box even if it's accidental has been given this season......why not this one

The fact the referee didn't what to check VAR is a fucking joke

Absolutely no consistency in Scottish football it's embrassing

VAR 100% gives it the other way.Doing their level best to ensure their preferred showpiece of an “old firm” final.

They've conclusively stated it wasn't. 

We've seen zero evidence to back up that assertion by VAR. In fact most replays look like he was in the box. 

There's a 100% chance that Celtic get a penalty for the exact same incident. 

[JakieBastard]

Clarkson needs to be played in this position all the time. What a difference to get the ball on the deck and play football. 

We look dangerous when we get the ball.

Also, so glad to see we seem to have binned the long throw shite

Be serious. MacDonald was a fucking idiot 

[Rico1903]

If we can pass a bit crisper, weight the ball better at times and keep to our plan defensively we have absolutely nothing to worry about here.

Nice to see Polvara’s composure in the middle of the park. Need Barron to do the same rather than panicking at times. 

We need to get our VAR in the bin. What’s the point when they can’t say if it’s in the box or not? 

[Don_Corleone]

Decent first half. Celtic are not that great - there for the taking. Could go either way.

Really disappointing to lose a goal through a defensive mistake after going ahead so early.

Should have had a penalty through that handball (Celtic or Sevco would have got one for the same no doubt), and we have had some other chances and a few corners. Hopefully more of the same in the second half and we could sneak it.

Agree with the last part but not the first part. The original decision was no hand ball so needs to be conclusive to overturn. Any doubt then the decision sticks.

The issue is that in Scotland they haven’t used VAR that way this season.

[Dandie1992]

Not even showing it. 

Blatant.

Cheats.

100%

looked like at least on the line, which is a penalty

But if it’s at other end & not ‘conclusive’ it’s given for that reason alone🤷
