    Tavernier collapsing in a heap around 44:30 and the ref giving a foul against Balikwisha. Was never a foul and Balikwisha would’ve been clean through.

    Everyone went off their nuts at that in the pub. He gave them every 50/50.

    Robertson has handled three of the last six Hun games against us, and he's been a dirty cheating * in everyone of them.

    What's going on here Collum ?.

    Even worse seeing it now again.

    How they blew that for a foul to then in baffling

    But how VAR sees someone spitting blood and needing medical attention, hasn't looked at that is even more baffling.

    Also, what was that nonsense near the end, long ball over bounces/heads a couple times and Shin is breaking through only for the defender to jump over him and take him out - last man and a red card but somehow they manage to claim a foul against Shin who had been booted all ways around the pitch.

    I watched the match replay last night and Robertson has shot to number 1 position on the hun ref ranking list. I'd rather Beaton was in charge that's how bad Robertson is. Our club and manager will say/do nothing of course. In fact it wasn't that long ago that BR was all smiles and laughter with DR after a game. More fool him. We are such an easy touch both on the field and off.

    He let them rugby tackle our players all * day, if this was the other way round & we played like that we'd of gotten 2 or 3 sent off.

    As blatant a display of corruption I've seen in ages.

    That was another prime example of sleekit refereeing yesterday, every chance he had to break up momentum he took. Nothing ‘bad’ or any major decisions blatantly wrong but daft fouls constantly given as Celtic start to build up a head of steam.

    The Tavernier one was the worst of the lot, never a foul.

    I remember thinking at one pint, Robertson has actually been pretty fair. Consciously looked at the clock to check and it was right on the half hour mark. About a minute passed from there and he started his * and I just knew it was goanny just get worse from there.

    Guy is a * scum bag.

    Yeah the other was McGregor I think nipped in and robbed one of them on the ball and played in someone, possibly Maeda and got pulled back for a foul. It should have at least been allowed to play on and VAR checked. Then probably ruled out.

    We were pathetic yesterday but the only reason they looked a threat in the game was the amount of cheap freekicks he awarded them in our half to allow them to swing balls in, without that corners and throw ins they did nothing the same as us.

    Apparently 4 ex refs have all said our penalty being awarded was scandalous and wrong. I can guarantee if it had been a huns penalty then there wouldn't be any of this, everyone would've just said "he's made himself bigger by putting his arms up, and you can't do that"

    But because its us its scrutinised to *.

    When the hun gets their weekly dodgy pen, we have to wait for Collum to sit on youtube explaining it. After Beaton awarded us a pen yesterday SFA came out with a statement 2 hours after the final whistle.

    To be fair, this weekend (including the Rangers game) we've done pretty well on the majority of big decisions.

    Agree. Our penalty was soft, I would've been raging if that was given against us, due to it being a deflection and how close the Kilmarnock player is to the deflection.

    On to the other mob. How the * was their goal from the corner disallowed? That's a shocker of a decision. And of course, Shankland definitely hand balled it for Hearts opener.

    I'm happy for a change that we've had the rub of the green this weekend.

    Our penalty yesterday was on the soft side. I would not have been happy with it being awarded against us.

    The decisions in the huns game were all marginal calls that you could talk either way. The thing about them is the ref called all the decisions on the pitch and none of them were able to be definitively overturned by VAR.

    I think the first 2 are the correct decisions, I don't think Shankland uses his arm as it was high up and Asgard clearly and deliberately interferes with the goalkeeper. Doesn't really matter how weak the keeper was, when you back into a keeper and put your arm across his face when the ball is nowhere near it's a free out.

    The penalty was extremely harsh I thought but once given it wasn't going to be overturned as the contact was minimal.
