Fortune's new year "goal"

Does this video show we've been shouting about nothing?

YouTube - McGregor Fouled by Fortune

 

I don't even need to see it again because it's still fresh in the memory.. When we have had incidents go against us like the challenge on Hinkel from Laugherty we were told to look at players reactions and nobody seemed concerned.. Likewise players reaction have been mentioned for other incidents this season but the one thing about Fortune's dissallowed goal is Mcgregors anger at conceding the goal and I've no doubt he felt there was nothing wrong with Fortune's challenge , just the same as the rest of us felt..

 

This one is from a different angle and i'm not sure what to think now . . . I know it doesnt matter but maybe just another paranoia claim for nothing?

 

Try jumping without using your arms ,you will do it but you wont get very high ,Fortune arms are on the way down in that video but like any goalie the seem to get away with murder ,but they can come out with there kness in the air ,elbows going everywhere and they have an advantage of roughly 2ft in height because there allowed to use there arms but they get away with it and the ref always favours the goalie .

 

Nah that jus proves that McGregor was not stong enough. He got a little tap on the arm and nothing more. Should of stood.

 

Where was the foul???

Fortune brushed McShaggers arm, nothing more.



If that goal was given hardly anyone would have complained about it, and it would have been put down to a mistake by the keeper - FACT.




That's only one decision out of about 15 major ones that have went against us this season.

 

The fact that no Rangers player protested Fortune's effort is good enough for me to consider it a legitimate goal.

This * has been happening all season though so it wasn't a shock that the goal wasn't (correctly) given.

 

fortune hasn't jumped into mcgregor though. there is contact on the arms but if you watch it closely fortune is up first and mcgregor tries to go through his arm to catch the ball but isn't strong enough. unless we're now saying that the forward not only has to not jump into the keeper but has to actively avoid contact with him its a goal.

 

Still not a foul for my money, perfectly good goal.

 

Someone else brought it up on another forum.. It's an identical goal to the one we conceded to Dunfermline in the cup final in Henrik's final competitive game for us Im sure.. goal was given then..

 

stil not a foul mcgregor haf heartedly jumps

 

His arm brushed his, hardly a foul for * sake, Bougherra should be banned from football after what he did the last game, IF THAT was a foul, shocking. Notice how the uploader has called Fortune a Jungle Jim ? * racist *. He has the cheek to upload a Billy connolly vid calling him a bigot, what a tool.

 

* * it wasn't a foul SIMPLE!!!!!!!!!!!

 

fortune jumped BEFORE the keeper so it cant be a foul

 

He hits his arm clearly impeding it as McGregor goes to catch the ball it is a foul, and now we have people in the face of the evidence refusing to accept what is clear as day and others won't even look at it. This is a form of mild psychosis in all honesty.

 

U ok? Lol.

Yeh everyone's right, dont know why i had to think about it . . . Mcgreggor wasnt strong enough because it was just a tap, plus there was no rangers players protesting. Pointless thread i s'pose

 

Speaking of fortune, go see my thread in the "beat the bookie" section., pretty hilarious and extremely annoying at the same time haha :icon_mrgreen:

 

Ok mate so when the goalkeeper jumps your not allowed to jump incase you touch him. My *.

Mcgregor was ready to accept he had * up and was once again bailed out by the ref.

 

fortune jumped first.... pretty simple if you ask me...

 

Too many people are quick to forget that football is regarded as a "contact sport".

The ball was in the air and was there to be won, Fortune outjumped McGregor, the fact that he brushed McGregor's arm makes NO difference to the situation...

Fact is, the ball was there to be won and that's exactly what Fortune did.
