Motherwell v Celtic

Motherwell are utterly appalling though. Usually they’d at least be getting tight and fouling a bit but they’re offering nothing with or without the ball. It’s good from Celtic but I’d like to see us being more clinical and scoring at least one more goal before half time.

Good effort by Commons. Some lad charged to about 5 yards but too much to expect the ref to notice.

Agreed but I’d make allowances for not having Griffiths in there. We should have the game finished by now but we are creating chances and that’s usually a bigger obstacle than putting them away.

Ah FFS sake. Outrageous.

That wasn’t a difficult decision. As blatant as you’ll get.

Celtic denied a blatant penalty there.

Ambrose! Was sure he’d bury that. In fairness that was very awkward for him and he needed to intervene. Centre backs notably absent.

I’m still seething over that penalty decision. This is a low key game and there’ll be nothing made of it but the refereeing is pathetic. Absolutely pathetic. No excuse whatsoever for not giving that penalty.And the assistant has a very clear view of it too. There’s no ball involved, the defender is at the completely wrong angle, the contact is really heavy and extremely obvious. There is nothing even mildly complicated about the decision.

This is fucking ridiculous. Another blatant penalty not given. Muir “missed” the handball at Hampden last season and has “missed” another one. Absolutely incredible.

Ah here. Another scandalous decision. Stretching out his hand to palm the ball down and prevent a tap in.

Armstrong is just so frustrating. Please change him.

Muir last year:

GMS for Armstrong. Not a great game for Armstrong. Hope GMS can rediscover some of his earlier season form, he’s been a bit predictable of late.

Assistant on the near side couldn’t possibly have seen this:

Sutton quipped “he mustn’t have been at last season’s semi final then”.

Celtic have been a bit sloppy in the last ten minutes.

My son has just defecated at the sight of the replay of the handball decision. He’s bang on.

Bitton done. Let’s hope this is precautionary. He’s absolutely crucial. Walking off is a good sign.

Terrible challenge by McDonald. Could easily be a red with a neutral ref.
