David Dickinson and Greg Aitken rob Motherwell as Ibrox video goes viral

Since the Ibrox club and their messengers launched a three week campaign of squealing against Auston Trusty their club has enjoyed an incredible run of favourable decisions.

Willie Collum and his SFA enablers have risen to the task with decisions that have matched the two 60 plus runs of matches under Crawford Allan where no penalties were awarded against the 2012 Ibrox Tribute Act.

Sadly with all 11 other clubs in the SPFL Premiership happy to go along with things nothing will change.

THE MAGIC UNIFORM

Apparently Danny Rohl is on a fantastic run of results. Much like Micky Beale was in 2022/23 when he slipped into the brogues and smart club blazer with flannels. Now we know why that combo is so revered among bears.

If Russell Martin had dumped his trainers and scruffy jumper he could be managing the league leaders.

Whatever combination you put in charge the outcome is assured.

There are few more staunch households that the Dickinson’s and the Aitken’s. Both family Facebooks are reeking.

Dickinson’s extended family don’t hold back. Family pictures down at the Masonic Lodge, Uncle David in Australia retains the views and politics of Linwood in the seventies.

Greg Aitken is a little more subtle. He plays up the Kilmarnock card although his profile picture sharing cheeky banter with Ally McCoist during a match is a bit of a giveaway.

Whatever combination of Dallas, Walsh, Robertson, Beaton or whoever is appointed the message from the Auston Trusty outcry is understood.

At Ibrox on Saturday Motherwell were the victims. Manny Fernandez is the new Connor Goldson, he has a free pass to do as he pleases in his own penalty box.

FERNANDEZ THE NEW GOLDSON

The home-side were leading 1-0 in the 90th minute when Lukas Fadinger burst into the penalty box, turning past Manny Fernandez.

The former Peterborough defender flicked up his left leg, catching Fadinger on the knee, falling over in clear view of Dickinson. The match referee didn’t want to know. He also knew that his pal Aitken on VAR wouldn’t go near it.

Fernandez is certainly enjoying some ‘good fortune’ from a run of honest mistakes. The type he’d never see at Peterborough where he was known as bomb scare

PATTERN OF ASSISTANCE

At home to Livingston on November 22 a shot from Tete Yengi was heading for the net when Fernandez swung his left arm to block the ball. Referee Ross Hardie waved play on knowing that Beaton on VAR would never award a penalty. Honest Willie Collum later apologised with Livingston losing 2-1.

Away to Dundee United on December 3 Fernandez swung his arm at along throw in to clear the ball. Dickinson waved play on then gave the visitors a 98th minute penalty to earn a draw.

Dickinson did what all Scottish fans expected of him against Motherwell.

Livingston, Dundee United and Motherwell have all been denied points against the Ibrox Tribute Act.

The three week media campaign following their League Cup semi-final defeat has paid off brilliantly.

SILENCE ISN’T GOLDEN, IT IS ENCOURAGEMENT

Not a peep was heard from Michael Nicholson about the double assault on Johnny Kenny by Derek Corneilus and Mohamed Diomande. No one highlighted the penalty claim for the foul on Reo Hatate until four days after the match. The handball of a cross from Michel Ange Balikwisha has never surfaced.

Nicholson and 10 other club CEOs know the drill. Apparently Scottish football needs a strong club out of Ibrox.

Scottish football needs 11 strong CEO’s and full publication of the 2012 Five Way Agreement and the earlier drafts.

Peter Lawwell steps down as Celtic Chairman on Wednesday, at least 13 years too late. If he is finally leaving the building.
