    Did you see the gif, mate?

    Right foot gets caught between the guys legs and the defenders right foot clips Stokes left foot AND he was nowhere near getting the ball. Was a desperate lunge and it was a penalty.

    I seen it twice from the first time live and the behind view camera from BBC. Can someone show me the gif I am drunk but from what I seen on tv it looked like a dive.

    He shapes to shoot, commits Bell and then starts to take it round him.

    Stokes has a tap in for the goal... Why would he dive, somebody please answer me that?

    Ach in my opinion guys Stokes was a diving * there. He has done a lot for us this season however he * me off a lot in this game. Seemed to be trying to prove something too hard. Like instead of passing to Forrest on the wing when he was in plenty of space he shot with like two or three defenders in front of him then instead of shooting in the 90th minute he tries to take it round the keeper in minimum space and then dives.

    We've had much worse decisions go against us.
    Could have been a pen but not clear cut at all.
    We lost because half our team didnt turn up, can't really blame gollum imo.

    Not clear at all. His final touch was too strong so he took a dive.That said i think most refs would have given it being in that posistion behind the play.Gollum seemed to take great pleasure flashing the yellow.Nasty little cretin.

    That gif hasn't changed my opinion either I'm right or the vodka has * me up :56:. Plus we can't rely on one decision we were poor. Sometimes we get decisions and sometimes we don't it's football for you.

    There is contact, but Stokes could (very) easily have stayed on his feet, rounded the keeper and slotted home, but... his last touch just before the contact sends the ball out to his left (away from goal). His miscontrol has resulted in him losing the opportunity to score, so he uses the weak contact to go down cheaper than a Leith hoor.

    Would have been very soft if given, and I can understand why it was not.

    If Stokes had had a wee bit more composure, then we wouldn't be having this debate. *, if Hoops had had a wee bit more composure, then I'm sure we wouldn't be having this debate.

    I've not been happy with our strikers for months. I know it sounds like madness to critisise guys with the stats that they have, but neither has played good football for months. In fact, Hooper has been rank rotten!!! It now has me thinking that ANY striker playing for Celtic could score a bucketload in the *-fest that is the SPL!

    Both have missed a half-dozen or so sitters this season. That's not good enough! If Forster had let in 6 soft goals, then he would (rightly) be getting pelters and shipped out. But somehow it's OK for the strikers to miss gilt-edged chances week-in and week-out! How so!? Sorry, but I expect a little more for my £15k+ a week.

    Agree 100%. Get your shot away and play to the whistle.

    Didn't have a good enough view of it at the time to really have an opinion.

    Wouldn't say that gif helps our cause too much but I suppose I'd need to see it from another angle maybe.
