The amount of handballs Aberdeen had that we didn't get was ridiculous.
Aberdeen missed a trick today. One of their players should just have picked the ball up and ran with it under his arm into the goal such was Thomson's inability to spot a handball. The only one he spotted was when Moussa got barged in the back and fell on the ball.

And dont get me started on his awful positioning. He nearly blocked the first goal! effing awful referee.

You can only miss out on a booking for celebrating a goal if you do not play in green & white hoops it seems
Under Strachan it got ridiculous. We were getting guys sent of for it due to second yellows and cousin scored at Ibrox and practically did a tour of glesga and wasn't booked. Mind McDonald got booked v gretna and he barely let the pitch.

Im sure the first old firm game at Ibrox that season Ferguson scored v us and just about rangers player including subs were piled up trackside way even mccoist getting involved.

No booking for John running into the crowd against Killie.

Just Celtic players who get booked for celebrating goals

With Collum doing Sevco yesterday and Thomson at us I’m presuming it’s Madden for next Saturday.

Could be Beaton but he done the 5-1 at Ibrox end of last season. Madden it is.

There was one handball right in front of him in the 1st half then one of the sheep defenders saved a Dembele shot in the box. Thought Thomson was rotten today and allowed Aberdeen to foul at will.
I could have sworn he booked more than 4 of them :suspect:

McLean has been pretty much out the picture since that Sevco/ Motherwell Semi-Final. Dallas is nowhere near experienced enough.

So to sum up, it’s going to be a Hun.

Collum also failed to send Tavernier off for a clear second yellow when he fouled Jones early in the first half.

Harry Cochrane booked for less of a challenge than Tavernier. Decisions always too inconsistent with Scottish refs.

Hibs player Brandon was right in the crowd when he set up the winner don't think he was booked either.

For a few glorious moments yesterday I thought Thomson had scored our first goal :lol:

The hand balls were genuinely awful, he is a shambles of a referee but I still prefer him to Madden

Agreed, but only because Madden is a cheat whereas Thomson is just a poor referee.

Didn't book half as many as he should. It was ridiculous in the first half. It was almost like he was embarrassed at the number of fouls he was having to give against them so decided to start ignoring them so it would not look like he was biased towards us. It seemed that pulling shirts in particular became OK. Thought his display was rotten.

Madden is in the all time top 10 with the likes of Wharton, Davidson, JPR Gordon (my number 1), Dallas Sr, Tait and McCurry.

Yesterday was a perfect example of bias...
A player gets pulled back while his team is breaking.
Ref shows a yellow card. So he knows the rules.
In the same match another player gets pulled back when his team is breaking.
This time the ref shows nothing. Because it was Celtic that was breaking.

This should be sent to the SFA with UEFA in copy asking for clarification.
Together with other "inconsistencies" like the booking for celebrating a goal (in Scotland aka "the Celtic rule").
These are not your "could be a yellow but the ref chose not to give it" events that are debatable. Those are the law of the game and the refs know those rules(see above) but consistently fail to apply it when Celtic is innvolved.
There are so many instances of Celtic having another set of rules that it stinks to high heavens.
Anyone who thinks that there is no bias("just bad refs") will struggle to explain those "inconsistencies"...
