I accept your apology, and my wife will delighted to have the title “queen”.

 

By the way, you actually think that Aberdeen voluntarily went out on to the pitch at that time? I think you’ll find that teams go out on to the pitch before the start of a game at the behest of the referee.


Dundee United came out after our players lifted the flag on Saturday.

As I said, no way would’ve the **** been out in the pitch if we were playing them.

Just while I remember, imagine getting all pissed off because the referee blew the whistle to start a match at the conclusion of a song being played over the PA and not midway through it....🤦‍♂️😂

Fair play to the DJ, timed it perfect, it’s almost as if he knew how long the track was and what time the game kicks off.

Was your game live to the nation on Sky against the most offended against team in the SPFL?


This was your original quote:

"By the way, you actually think that Aberdeen voluntarily went out on to the pitch at that time? I think you’ll find that teams go out on to the pitch before the start of a game at the behest of the referee."

I provided a counter-example from literally 24 hours earlier of a referee not behesting anything and a team staying in the tunnel until the normal time.

With due respect to Killie, this was a game against Celtic at their home ground. The opposition do as they're told and I've no doubt they were told to come out when they did.

No they don’t nor do they have to. Aberdeen made a choice to participate so your gripe is with your own club not Sky and not Celtic.

I hope you don’t mind me disagreeing with you, but yesterday I’m sure that Aberdeen were told to go out when they did. Not that I expect you to believe me.

I remember attending a St Mirren game at Parkhead which was the first one of the season after Tommy Burns died. 

It was like attending a memorial service. At one stage I expected a shroud to be brought on. 

Don’t get me wrong he was a great player and terrific servant to Celtic but this must have gone on for 30mins before kick off.

No-one to blame but yourself for going in thirty minutes early.

Who told them they had to go out?

Given our supporters buses arrive around that time and there is no salubrious pubs nearby that cater for away fans then that’s why we are in early.

You don’t have much experience in going to Parkhead in a League match.

In fact you may not even have been born the last time Morten were in the top flight.

The cost benefit analysis of AFC telling the officials that they'll just wait in the changing room until the nonsense is finished with thank you, and the ensuing tsunami of sellik mewling about disrespect versus what happened is very finely poised.

So you are upset Celtic paid tribute to one of their greatest sons, in their own stadium for their own fans? 

Is their a rule on how long a fitting tribute or celebration of someone’s life should take?

There! 

When I was a lad teams would wear black armbands and both sets of supporters would have a minutes silence pre kick off.

Ever since Diana died there has been this public mourning which is OTT.

Perhaps your club could have arranged a special game after his death to raise funds for a skin cancer charity at Parkhead and held an appropriate memorial service.

FWIW Saints fans did not boo or disrespect the “service” or the minutes applause.

The referee.

You know that for sure because it’s not in his remit or does he have the authority to tell players to go out early and observe a guard of honour which isn’t compulsory?
