    I don't think it has anything to do with being up against world class defenders. Well, of course it was in a way, but he was still capable of beating them and getting his cross or pass away. He skinned a couple of them a couple of times in the 2nd half. The issue was getting options around about him, there were none.

    You can't be seriously arguing that? Nearly EVERY 50/50 went our way. Really lenient in not booking our players as well, many other refs wouldn't have been as easy going.

    Of the history of nonsense you come away with that might be the cherry on the cake.

    He gave at the very least 3 goal kicks which were Celtic corners.

    Giving a goalkick instead of a corner has to be the only decision that didn't go our way. Every contentious tug, pull, 50/50 went our way. He was incredibly lenient in not booking our players for fouls. You're absolutely lying to yourself to pretend otherwise.

    Thought the ref was very fair last night. Psg should have had more fouls at the edge of our box. And at the first goal the ref was spot on, no foul on sinclair.

    * me, that's delusional. I know football fans hate the ref but Jesus Christ, he gave us every contentious one going last night, especially in the first half.

    It was a blatant foul in the lead up to their goal. No matter what that * Sutton was saying otherwise. A clear foul that set them on the way scoring..

    Numerous fouls and corners/goalkicks didn't go our way, to the extent he was overruling the official's on the lines and getting it blatantly wrong..

    Only player to create a clear cut chance for himself. Good save from the keeper aswel. Had a bit of a bad first half but so did everyone. No options around him as we seemed to stay 40 yards back just incase like we scared lassies.

    Second half much better.

    Well... Of course it does.. Going from playing against Shae Logan to Dani Alves - Doesn't take a genius.

    Scott Sinclair, is what he is. A mid-bottom EPL player and an outstanding SPL player. That's the reality, as for the UCL, he's a pot 4 class player playing in a pot 4 class squad, or thereabouts.

    I don't know what you expect Metro, because we haven't seen those days in a long time.

    I don't hate the ref at all as it happens, I just know he let PSG away with murder time and again. Both in terms of their tackling and their play acting.

    Madness. Completely lying to yourself. He even booked their main player for play acting.

    Ah well, if he booked Neymar he must have been pro-Celtic.

    Apologies, my bad.

    My mate said the same thing last night.

    I didn't really notice it but he was adamant that the ref was a * towards us.

    The ref wasn't dreadful last night but he was poor.

    There were a number of fouls we should have got but didn't. In any case it didn't matter, he wasn't the reason why we were battered.

    Thought he was running into dead ends last night, I think some of that was down to the formation we were playing. Normally he has Rogic supporting him to offer him an option.
