I honestly think this time the Club have to speak out!

Sometimes I can see how an official can maybe not have a clear view or be duped by a diving player but this is beyond incompetence and a 'mistake'.

There was more than one official with a very clear view and for the good of out game, they need to be held accountable for these decisions.

Mrs E it was as if the officials were determined to put brakes on treble.

Mrs E said as much earlier

League Cup final against Kilmarnock Stokes is denied a Stonewall last minute penalty

Semi final against Hearts in the Scottish cup semi final the hand ball last minute that they got that we never got the EXACT same decision at the other end that NL ran onto the pitch to remonstrate

Even this season TWICE at tannadice , The Scepovic chopped off goal and the VVD sending off and the soft penalty against us given!

Someone has to point out the "totting up" in big games even for future reference

Or if anyone please can point out the last BIG decision we got in a BIG domestic game please enlighten me?

What is the point in the goal line officials as I can't think of one ever making a call. As for the 3 today all within 15 feet of the hand ball only says to me it was 11 against 16.

I know some will cringe but I am not speaking with the advantage of hindsight , I flagged up the danger of McLean and Andrew Dallas having charge of our treble attempt . I know many on here watch games in various European Leagues , I very much doubt if anyone has ever seen a decision like we had to endure after 44/45 minutes today .
We told that these things even themselves out over the course , Mr Mc Lean chose not to go down that way when he awarded an equally blatant penalty and dish out the red card to Gordon .
We will know if the SFA is corrupt or not by what they deal with McLean Muir and Dallas. I remember when big Yogi Hughes hit the scrum Willie Johnston with his knee after both tousled on the ground . The referee ( I cannot remember his name ) was an International referee , after that he was demoted to lower decision and Junior football.
Our three cheats today must never be envolved in a top league game .

These sort of disgraceful incidents have been going on for over a century and we rarely take them to task.
It has happened in many televised games so the evidence is available and the biased is overwhelming.
We are the most powerful club in the country and we generate income for every other club in the division, carry the flag for our country single handedly in Europe every season, earning cash for Scottish clubs every time we progress.
The reason we continually suffer from cheating officials and obstacles and hindrance from our Association is because we bend over and take it every time.
It's high time we flexed our muscles or made concrete plans to play our football elsewhere, away from corruption.

Mrs E/DN30 forced myself to watch highlights, the referee has a clear view but even more important the official behind the goal is only feet away and is looking straight at it, I genuinely believe that all the talk from Ronnie about the treble has put the SFA heid yins in a panic and they have had a "word" with the officials, I predict these officials will now be fastracked onto the SFA's FIFA list "for services to the cause" Paranoid?just because I am paranoid it does not mean people are not out to get us. Cheating Barstewards and I want the club to make a statement. But even more worrying is we have a hard game on wednesday with a tired squad this is their next target to stop Celtic winning the league, we are Celtic we will overcome any and all obstacles and win the title hail hail

I just think with HD telly and technology these days, officials need to up their game (or just do their job)

This is why we end up with conspiracy theories etc. That today could not be anymore blatant, ridiculous decision and embarrassing.

Hearts & Hibs have been speaking up and this time, I expect the same from Celtic

We got cheated, no doubt.
But still we lead at half time 1 0. We should have been able to rise above it . Granted the decision cost us but surely we can see our own frailties cost us.
I've no doubt RD will be more worried about putting that right then an officials decision

I've said as much down the page a bit Bobby but the decision itself needs addressed, it was diabolical!

Celtic were still leading but what we were doing in the lead up to the penalty, from the state of the corner to Matthews and Gordon is anyone's guess.

Definitely , today was sore , but we need to look a little away from officials as bad as they were and look at our own downfall . We didn't do anything right leading up to that goal and sending off.
We were robbed , plain and simple , but we were winning 1 0. No point in only blaming officials , we need to look in house then learn . Blaming officials however shite they were doesn't help . Most damming stat is we were winning 1 0 with 45 mins left against Inverness?? Ffs should we not be able to hang on . As I've said earlier , the build up and the sending off was avoidable . Forget the **** of a referee . The theories off being hard done by . I live in England because my parents couldn't get a job in scotland . We know it happens , but if we'd defended well enough we could have stuck two fingers up to the lot of them. The referee was sh*te but we should have done better . We let ourselves down. Forget it and move on. I'm sure RD knows this and we'll move on stronger

Mrs E I think our young players were not prepared to over come the decision made before half time and we're still playing in a shocked state of mind . Not unenough cover when corner was cleared

I've only just watched the highlights, not good.

Their 3rd goal, the goalscorer was unmarked and had lots of space - what were we doing?

Tonev - strange one but shows we maybe don't have many options as we think. Granted GMS & Armstrong were cup-tied but they did play last week and were as poor as everyone else.

Forrest was the best players 1st half and suffers for Gordon, on hindsight should have been Commons.

If Brown and Biton are injured, who plays their role?
