A question to those who are "paranoid", whatever that means.

Looking at the videos brings it all homes.

There is an overwhelming majority who feel the same as me which is reassuring but like everything else in life, we can't all have the same views. So as much as I can't understand why someone may not see the SFA as being biased I do respect their opinion.

It is hard to think that someone is out to get you and it is also hard to imagine that a force would deliberately play a part to ensure a particular body keep control when it doesn’t financially benefit them.

What is the alternative?

That the majority are all gone mad and want success so bad they are determined to blame others for the downfall of the club they love.

I have to admit I look for every decision that is made by Ref’s against us every week now and I get * when I see things happening that I don’t see happening to the team we are playing.

e.g. We where called for offside against St Johnstone for a player who wasn’t even on the ball just because the goalie spilled it as the shot came in. Yet not just 10 minutes later St. Johnstone had a player in an off side position as they where attacking and there was no offside given.

Petty you may think but if you where to look at it from a different analogy.

If your partner was out to all hours and many a lad is texting her and she is saying that they are just friends , then one time you are out with your mates and you see your girl with her hand going through some lads hair smiling away at him. After asking her about it would you still be thinking, she wouldn’t do that to me, just because she says she isn’t?

[FONT=&quot]Just because you think something like this couldn’t happen doesn’t mean it can’t happen and I am not talking about your partner playing away when I say this.

only last week hugh dallas said in the paper that whenever he was refereeing a rangers game richard gough would say to him"whenever i raise my hand its a foul to us".for me this is an amazing faux pas that "conveniently" no one in the media has picked up on. this suggests the rangers captain expects to be given the rub of the green. like i said i can't believe this wasn't picked up on or should that be i can easily believe this wasn't picked up on.

 

john hartson is in the sun today saying in his column that he believes it aswel after the penalty decision against the huns.....well done big john

link no on the sun website yet

 

That sounds more plausible than the rest of the theories flapping around.

I disagree with most of this, especially the bit in bold. And from a Nick Cave fan, no less. Nonsense.

I'm beginning to take your posts with a pinch of salt. You're getting to overworked in this debate and your last line is

 

Yeah, that video really makes the blood boil.

 

You just fancy me and want to see where I sit so you can come and fire in.

That makes sense.

I'm sorry, right, but I a little sentence structure would go a long way. I canny read posts like this.

I'm the same. I fail to see what they get out of it.

Also, don't Celtic have a much larger fanbase than the Huns, which could be the case in Scotland?

Craig Levein & Peter Houston Huns?

Craig Levein & Peter Houston Huns?

 

SFA? Simple - it's the Mason thing bhoys and we know it!!!!!

 

craig levein has sold his soul to the devil taking the scotland job.he's not a hun no but he has become part of a corrupt institution.they were never his tactics against the czech republic but thats another thread and houston is part of it now with him

 

I think the fanbase is based globally rather than National. I don't know for sure but I personally think there is more huns in Scotland than Tims. Around the worls there is more Celtic fans which is why we play alot in Australia and the U.S.A.
But as I say, I don't know for certain. But in every job I have had it is mainly rangers fans that work there and I am in the minority of Celtic fans. But I am a lucky Bhoy in that 95% of my china's are Tims

 

I'm not cocooned in a bubble at all. I went to a Catholic school, then a non -denominational school till I was 16 and left. The latter school I went to was one of the biggest in Glasgow and I didn't suffer or know anyone who suffered any bigotry due to their Catholicism.

I'm not saying it doesn't happen, it may, but I am close to 30 years old and lived in Scotland most of my days, in Dundee and in Glasgow, and I haven't see this happen. Not taking the * I just haven't. And I've followed Celtic since I could see.

Not a pointless thread, 6 pages and going. Off you tot.

Good post. Your analogy is funny but I see your points. I wish more people relayed their views like this instead of:

SFA ARE OOT TO GET US HUNS ALL IN THEM * THE SFA YOU MUST LIKE MY OPINION OR UR A HUN

More posts like jcwelsh's please.

I don't think unless someone comes out and goes:

"I worked for the SFA and I can show you here, X, Y & Z are all at it and on the Huns payroll"

 

I don't think they are bias I just think that the individuals are incompetent. Its very frustrating to see such second rate officials in such meaningful games.

 

u can also look to the tommy burns and scotland scenario for a little bit of hun bitterness the last celtic man to be scotland manager jock stein i still stand by that tommy burns was passed up for the scotland because of a few under the table handshakes R.I.P TB but there is without a shadow of a doubt a corrupted SFA against celtic i cant remember the last time celtic got a decision for them in an old firm match if you look at last season there was a poll up that the huns gained so many points from dodgy decisions and celtic lost just as many from dodgy decisions anybody remember when artur had a free kick given against him for handling the ball outside his box before he punted it? when footage clearly shows he let go off the ball about 3 yards inside the box i think it was against aberdeen

 

The sfa are part of an anti catholic/irish establishment that are out to get us,were not paranoid either * the sfa

 

Dont come across as Smug on here ,Thats a couple of posts that i and others have noticed that you have posted patronising others on here ,All thats asked of posters on here is not to use Text Speech and to use the English language ,Some are better than others but the main thing on here is to get your point across ,Nobody talks down to others like you have done ,carry on posting and debating but dont be smug .

 

Willie Collum's decision in the Old Firm is not just a bad decision, it's blatant cheating as he didn't even see the incident.

The SFA can back referee's who see decisions and call it wrong, that can go down as yet another honest mistake but we should be demanding an explanation of this incident.

We're being cheated left, right and centre but this is the clearest example of cheating that I've ever seen, they simply can't defend this decision.

If anyone got a chance to read John Hartson's article in The Sun today - he's got it absolutely spot on.

 

well the simple answer atm is, ther is something amiss.

Im not sure what it is, but theres something going on.

And to answer the question "What do the SFA get by being biased to the huns" With the financial state the huns are in, they need all the help they can get, and if the huns go into a spiral, lose big players, finish 4th etc, then the SFA will lose alot of money, as Celtic and Rangers are really, the only attraction in Scottish Football. So its in the SFA's interest to give the huns a helping hand. Which will make it all the sweater when the leagues resting in Paradise

 

The standard of referee in this country is poor to say the least, I totally agree that the refereeing decisions that hasn't gone our way is scandolous and rightly heads must roll, I really think in this day and age it is more a preferential Bias from the referee himself rather than an SFA protocol, only problem being is by the look of it, most of these top flight referees are leaning one way, that is a problem which I struggle to have an answer for.
we are in a minority but as usual we shout the loudest, that is what gives me hope something will eventually crack, when that happens, it'll all come out in the wash.

What is peoples views about other European officials brought in to our game for Big games? I would be all for it.

 

They wont change anything,it just makes it much sweeter when we win knowing we did it against the odds,and we werent supposed to win its the ultimate "* you" to them.

 

If you look at last season alone the hunns got every * decision going, last minute penaltys, about 5 to name a few maybe even more, injury time for them seems to be 5 minutes if there struggling, or if they need a goal, its quite clear the refs and the sfa are biased towards our club, there has been some appalling decissions going against us and we are not paranoid or hard done by, its a complete farce, the hunns get everything going, thats why your not hearing any moaning coming from them, * them * will be delighted over in govan.



The sfa has bent over backwards to help them win league titles to get them out of the mess there in/ debt wise, league titles bring cl money and the sfa/ refs/ and linesmen have done there * * best to get the hunns were they are now, Its comical that were been dragged through the papers with stories of paranoia???? ffs this league is laughing stock to the nuetral down in england for some of these baffling scenarios.


A wish a could count back to the ammount of wrong desiscions going against us, but there have been far to many!!!

 

Well, I'm afraid you'll have to explain what exactly you disagree with. The fact is, Celtic will always be associated with Ireland and Catholicism. That is a fact, it cannot be disagreed with.
