Ultimately though Motherwell had nothing to give and were swept aside with relative ease. Some cracking finishing from us today and some shift from Eddie. You've never been to Parkheed in yer life. I enjoy seeing Celtic trying to take the moral high ground. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course the easy thing Robinsion could have done is tell his team to let Celtic score from kick off. As rare as it happens it’s what usually gets done. Im not going to have a go though as if we did it on Thursday and went through as sheepish as we would have felt I would have taken it. To be honest thats the problem with football, there far too many rules open for interpretation even before you look at supposed gentlemen’s agreements. I believe you are mistaken. I do not think allowing the opposition to score is 'usual'. Although many of the media, including Chris Sutton, agree with you. 'Sutton was involved in controversy in the final game of the 1996–97 season against Arsenal. Late in the game with the "Gunners" leading by a single goal, the ball was kicked out of play by Arsenal to allow an injured teammate to receive treatment. Sutton chased the ball instead of allowing it to be thrown back to Arsenal and won a corner from his efforts. Blackburn scored from this corner and as a result Arsenal missed out on a lucrative place in the Champions League to Newcastle United on goal difference. Sutton refused to apologise for his actions' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robinson has a suspended ban hanging over him, bringing the game into disrepute by allowing his team to deliberately concede a goal would have seen him in the stand for the rest of the season.

There have been many instances since then ffs. You are merely trying to fit Chris Suttons hypocrisy in to this discussion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swello Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Trying to be feel bad about the unsportmanshipness - but not going to lie, I'm finding it *really* funny. Also - good to see we've dispensed with all the hammerthrowing and started to find more sophisticated ways to wind up Brendan. Hope we've got something lined up for Rangers in a few weeks...

Drew Brees Posted February 24, 2019 Share Posted February 24, 2019 Just seen the clip of the Motherwell goal, fair play to them, 2 goals down and Celtic put the ball out for treatment to our own player so why should they give possession back. I would’ve been raging if we had given the ball back in that situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just an example of what is getting more common - where people, especially your mob, decide on an incident depending on what happened to whom. Somebody halves someone. What do think? It depends who did the halving. Sinclair has cheat. Brown gets away with murder. But no Celtic fan will agree with that, until they play with someone else.

It was a stupid mistake, but it did not affect the result and he will learn not to do it again, although as has been pointed out on here it is not against the rules. Our Manager has come out and said it was a mistake. I am reading the reaction on Twitter. It is almost as if we stopped you lot winning the fkin title......now has that happened before....mmmmm. Some Celtic fans have serious anger management issues. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
