    Dallas put it right because I think he knows there is no way he couldn't. There are mistakes they can defend when wrong and explain why they may have come to that decision but two hands, you can't really.

    He did disallow a penalty for a forearm smash though.

    Willie Collum has been a lot more transparent so fair play to the guy, he’s clearly trying but the standard of the base level referees are absolutely woeful.

    That St Johnstone goal was never a foul in a million years on Idah, anyone thats ever played at any level as a striker or centre half can see he just crumbles after feeling hands and taking a * touch

    It must have been boiling Hugh Dallas' blood watching that....knowing his son is on the VAR and * up a perfectly reasonable plan to chop off Celtic's equaliser.

    Everyone else did their bit......linesman...flag immediately if Celtic score......referee..chop their goal off...don't ask any questions...just do it.

    "......* VAR and replays and having to be honest actually have a valid reason to chop the goal off? * unheard of!! Since when??? What reason??? We never needed an actual reason before." says Dallas, screaming at the TV in his living room ...."See Jorge Cadete...Ibrox...New Year 97'. Never needed a reason then. Chop off the Celtic goal and worry about a 'reason' later. That was always the way of it..." ....he laments the good old days as he bursts into tears beneath his king billy picture on the wall. Shaking in disarray and anger he remembers the hard graft he used to put in to maintain the order of things in his country. He remembers great bigoted deeds of old..
    Like how he took a pound coin to the face and gave rangers a penalty for it right away....

    ...he takes the belt with the big buckle out his drawer....and waits for his son to get home....

    Andrew Dallas will now be grounded,.... pocket money stopped immediately...and have his phone taken off him as punishment...until he learns his lesson...which is......VAR and facts and rules.....not nearly as important as doing your duty to keep the Fenians down in this country.
    The Dallas family now are reduced to the back of the walk this year for not sticking to the plan...and it's that Andrew's fault

    He allowed a facesmash against St Johnstone, so really what could we expect.

    Thats a blatant penalty. Realises he's been caught on the back foot and pulls him back..

    They got about 2 or 3 penalties against the diets and sheep last season for less than that in last minutes..

    We dont make a big enough deal to force var to have a look. Every player going mental at the referee and they'd check it. The silence meant he could ignore it, knowing full well it was a foul

    Had the other playera stopped, flung arms in the air and screamed about it - aka what that lot would have done - then var would have been used and they wouldn't get out of it.

    However, we didn't and the ref and VaR took the obvious option out.

    When it's a pretty obvious pull like that from behind, in the box and the smaller man is dragged down.....it shouldn't matter..

    On a side note, is there any player that gets away with as much as Diomande and Raskin. Two players who are allowed to antagonise, foul, go in late, pull, dive and rush the ref as much as these..

    There always has to be one (or two). Goldson was the last..

    A midget and skinny wee rake acting the big men. They both need cementing.......Engels showed how easy it is to fling that wee Belgian * about and Diomande is also about 7 stone soaking wet..
