For describing it as incompetent Brendan Rodgers got a one match touchline ban, bearing in mind Beaton’s background most Celtic fans would have used another description for his decision making from Tynecastle.
Today from a match that they have won Celtic have the opportunity to ‘press for the highest standards in relation to the VAR process in Scottish football’ which is apparently something that they continue to press despite the lack of any evidence.
Referee mistakes over 20 years have been put together onto one video clip by the team at the Celtic Forever podcast.
The video is a year old but covers some shocking decisions which clearly shows a pattern of unusual decisions or honest mistakes across a whole range of…
John Lundstram is not interested in the ball, all he is doing is looking at our player, and he blocks him, and it gets given as VAR as a penalty.
Was it a foul? Yes. Did VAR get it right? Yes. But should it ever have been looked at in the first place? Give me a break.
A clunky blue line was drawn across the pitch, bent in places and clearly showing Watkins’ shoulder goal side. Nicholson will probably put it down to teething issues.
Don Robertson was on VAR duty, a decision was taken in less than two minutes, to the surprise of the Kilmarnock striker his goal was allowed to stand.
Muir, like McLean and assistant referee Frank Muir, had a clear view of the incident but neither of the three opted to apply the Laws of the Game.
