The furore which has bubbled up across the city over the foul on Lagerbielke has changed the narrative of pain to victimisation, one we saw after Morelos had a goal chopped off for pushing a player over last season.
Now predictable Newco fan sites are coming out quoting whatever former referee or pundit wants to put their hand up and complain for the sake of an interview.
One you wouldn’t have thought to be among that number is Bobby Madden who has come out to defend Don Robertson and it must be said Alan Muir who was on VAR duty.
I have very little respect for all 3 names but it seems that they all agree with the rules.
The football from all angles mob however have found a couple of other former referees.
What is conclusive for me is the videos above, they show players with their feet tangled with the opposition player who is in possession being fouled by a player being over zealous in a challenge.
I understand that football is a contact sport, but pushing players over whilst tripping them at the same time cannot be allowed to stand.
It was a foul all day, imagine if it had been the other way around, there would have been bears on the pitch if VAR had allowed that for Celtic.
The next few weeks will be interesting to say the least.
