    Definitely was a red imo, needs to wisen up because he got away with one there.

    In terms of performance, he done OK. Not as good as the last game, but he's had many, many worse games than that in a Celtic top.

    The hamilton guy grabbed his foot and turned Griffiths around, Griffiths also stopped all his weight going on the hamilton guy buy planting his left leg, if anything Griffiths did extremely well not to stamp on the hamilton man, Sutton got it spot on.

    Debatable.

    He did turn towards him but don't think he could do much with his feet.. One of those ones only he knows..

    The reaction from the Hamilton boy possibly tells a story.

    It could have cost at a time when the game was in the balance, so stupid.

    Was stupid from him. Gave the ref a decision to make.

    Didn't have good game overall. His touch was way off.

    I'm not sure there can be because he was booked.

    Was poor but still complimented eddie quite well so it's worth sticking with imo for the time being.

    Yes because that's exactly what happened when he stamped on Ralston.

    Selective memories these *.

    Christie was booked too. They make up the rules as they go along.

    I think it was 50/50...could have been costly with a different ref.

    Have to eat humble pie regarding a previous comment re Mcoist...what a fukin silly * bringing Morellos into the debate.

    Couldn't hide his disappointment today...

    Wasn't even a yellow never mind a red. * grabbed Griff as he turned over leaving Griff nowhere to go and Griff lost balance then other player shoved him.

    Think he's maybe tried to jump over the Hamilton boy and made a hash of it. On another day he'd have seen red.

    Don't think it was intentional but he's swerved one.

    It looked bad from a certain angle, but the Hamilton player clearly pulled his foot down. Correct decision.

    Foot was being held and he lost his balance, another player that has the brown syndrome , it's his fault he caused it

    This is my take on it aswell, the shove and pushing the refs arm away was worse imo. That gave Walsh the opportunity to send him off more than the so called stamp.
