    If you read Law 12, Fouls and Misconduct, offences against goalkeepers are clearly specified as:

    Fortune's goal is sound, and there is nothing within the Laws that say otherwise. It's a struggle, when you actually read them, to see exactly what the foul was supposed to have been.

    that was never a foul. When you watch the ball go in McGregor looks right at the ref :56: same auld refs give the scum the advantage. And putting up your arms in the air is a MUST so agianst rangers in the refs and assistants eyes its automatic fouls.

    Fortune was up and going for the ball, using his arms for elevation and not even looking at McGregor

    McGregor was running backwards and jumped less than a cm off the ground with his arms limp in the air

    Keepers should be running out and grabbing the ball, not waiting on it falling into their hands

    I dont think there was a foul, goalkeepers have too much protection in my eyes and goal should have stood, although its even worse in Europe. Without trying to be controversial, didnt the Huns have one disallowed against us last season or maybe season before, Broadfoot i think for exactly the same offence which i also thought should have stood at the time.

    Nah , you'll get a row for saying that... :icon_mrgreen: Broadfoot barged Boruc about a foot across his goal line to put the ball into the net on that occasion..

    Brushes him slightly. NEVER in a million years is that a foul.
