This just tops it off, doesn't it. Let's just treat the wee team like a joke. I would like the SFA to explain their referee failing to deal with the stamping and diving/simulation of the Celtic players, the illegal pitch invasion by the Celtic manager. Then for the SFA to explain why they have failed to deal with it all.

Sunday was a joke to sit there after paying for season ticket watching either my team be done by either an incompetent ref or cheated its one or the other and also to have fans quite obviously not there to see the Accies rub our faces in it, never knew so many Accies fans like videoing a poor Celtic side celebrating a tarnished win.

All the reports in next days papers from professional reporters watching football every week seemed to see Griffiths stamp on Woods. The above BBC report says " It relates to a first-half incident when players from each team surrounded referee Nick Walsh after Leigh Griffiths stood on Accies' Sam Woods." NOT, allegedly stood, but stood. Even the BBC seems sure of the facts.

With both the Referee and Ross the standside linesman wearing FIFA badges, and both within 5 metres of the incident, it is nothing short of a dereliction of duty to 'miss' what TV commentators said, (and subsequently said) about the stamping.

There have been far, far worse outbreaks of on-field trouble with other teams in Scotland, and which have gone unpunished.

The authorities JUST don't like us being in their 'big' league. Hypocrisy like this almost wants me to see Accies in the Championship, and away from the bigots for a good few years.

Sad, SO sad, as the Donald would say :cry: :cry:

Update. Have a look at the BBC photo 1hr ago https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/scottish. Now that couldn't be a Celtic player trying to pull back the referee, could it? Thought any man-handling of Officials was a no-no?? :)

You are totally correct, but look at the player who is doing it, the number one player in Scotland, who can do no wrong. It just sums up Sunday it really does.
