Rangers v Celtic

Collum doubling doon

and they say it’s not corrupt lol

 

lint never forgets

 

I was there.

 

front row seat for the masonic cheat show

 

Common sense prevails

 

Did he post the trusty kick to the face?

 

Out of interest, how many stitches did Butland need after Trusty forced him to vigorously blink?

 

It’s violent conduct. That’s the only thing that matters here

 

So you get sent off for touching somebody's head with your head, like a very soft headbutt and also get sent off if you touch somebody's face with you hand, like a wee play slap. Yet if you deliberately put your foot to somebody's face/head whilst on the ground it is only a yellow card and the reason it is only a yellow card is because the guy didn't need stitches? What a time tobe alive.

 

Violent conduct occurs when a player uses or attempts to use excessive force or brutality against an opponent, teammate, match official, spectator, or any other person when not challenging for the ball.

Lol

 

No buddy, the stitches question was just out of interest.

Joe Hart was kicked in the head, violently, twice playing for Celtic and both on field decisions were Yellow Cards.

 

Who cares.

It's a namby, pamby game played by big girls blouses and has been for years now.

Bunch of prim donna ****tahs that cry if they break a bastarding fingernail.

****s, the lot of them.

 

now do endangering an opponent

 

Well those decisions were wrong.

 

Nice call

Cornelius should have seen red for endangering an opponent.

Doesn't apply to Trusty as once again FORCE is important in the decision.

 

Not corrupt?

 

Enter it into chatGPT. They say it’s a red card.

they reckon force doesn’t matter if it’s a deliberate kick to the face

 

If its a deliberate kick to the head, why did he turn his foot sideways?

He could have just toed Butland right on the nose.

He turned his foot, why?

To catch the rebound and score, that's why.

 

Key distinction: "Excessive force" vs. "unacceptable act"

The IFAB and referee guidance explain that:

• "Excessive force" doesn't only mean high physical power.
• It means the act goes beyond what is acceptable in football — it's not a legitimate challenge and shows disregard for the opponent's safety.

So, if a player deliberately kicks someone in the head, even gently:

• It's not a challenge for the ball.
• It's a deliberate act against the opponent.
• It endangers safety and is completely unacceptable in football.

Thus, the referee treats it as violent conduct, even if the contact was light.
