Some ridiculous tackles from the huns yesterday. Considering what Brown was sent off for last weekend

Exactly disgraceful tackles.

Double Maxim without doubt the greatest drink in the world

Tavernier saying it wasn't a peno, FFS

It should have been his second yellow!!!

He was decent but a little hesitant with cards, even towards Celtic players, the difference being they committed a lot more fouls and a had a lot more bad challenges. I think, by the letter of the law, Beerman and Tavernier should both have been shown red cards. I enjoyed watching Beerman though, miles out of his depth.

Did Neil McCann also say it wasn't a penalty?

beerman has potential to be the huns rudi vata. actually that is harsh on rudi vata

my god they have some terrible players. stonewall penalty even by old firm tacking standards

Rudi is a cult hero and was one of the better players at his time in the club, which unfortunately says more for the standard of some of the others! Beerman is terrible though. Their problem lies with how they set up from the start in the fourth tier of Scottish football and they are still recovering. They should have built year on year, gradually improving and developing good young players, instead they kept their budget as the second highest in Scotland and spunked money on SPL journeyman and mercenaries.

Hence why they are financially struggling, enough to keep our Tony in w**king material anyway, and are signing loans and free transfers like Beerman as an act of desperation.

Oh, as I'm here.........

Scumbags tried to break Roberts' legs and the ref didn't protect him

So many dodgy fouls not given/punished yesterday

Apparently the 5 min highlights package on bbc makes it look like an even game lol

There were 30 minutes of highlights on Sportscene last night which told the whole tale.

Maybe the BBC are in on the conspiracy theory too though Ermm

I just watched Sportscene there, the first 35 to 40 minutes were given to the Celtic game, Willie Miller in the commentary box and the two lads in the studio were all unbelievably complimentary to Celtic and all called Beerman and Halliday lucky to stay on the pitch.

It looked even more one-sided in the highlights too, disappointing it was only two.

Even better is that the Huns are starting to turn on Caixinha already, especially for his friendly chat with Rodgers at full-time and for being complimentary of Scott Brown and the media are on his back for using water tumblers to show where his tactics failed in the post-match press conference.

That is why it would have been nice to hammer them and really sow even more seeds of doubt, there is always next week I guess.

Aberdeen demanding 50/50 split for cup final tickets despite only taking 12,000 fans to the semi.

And rightly so. They should fill half the stadium no problem. Celtic's home attendance in the cup competitions has been dreadful for years, we have failed to sell out our allocation for a few cup semis over the years. The sheep have a good support and travel in the their numbers to every ground in Scotland. They deserve a 50/50 split.

Sunday was far too easy. that performance has really hurt the huns. the reality in gulf in class has really hit home, Dont how its taken them so long. Give them a hammering at their place on Saturday and it could send them over the edge. Clap

They sold their allocation for the League Cup Final and will do so again here, in fairness to Aberdeen, a 12 o'clock kick off three hours away with no special trains is a pain in the balls.

Pity if true

Need to get him fit for the qualifiers in July now

There's your summer football
