    The irony of your post will take some beating

    While he's right about DJ the fact you love Sutton's idiotic behaviour says it all :D

    He's an utter moron who thinks he's taking the fight to the big bad Scottish media, deluded as ****.
    There's also a difference between rightfully criticising someone for what they said and being a derogatory little dickhead while doing it.
    Sutton is the latter.

    One could even say he's tailor made for some of you ;)

    So basically you agree with Sutton?!

    Seems like the failures in the transfer market are now firmly being found out.

    Garner ? Tries hard, but simply doesn't have it.
    The defense gets worse every single game, but the finishing up top has been woeful.

    Waghorn misses a chance from 5 yards out ? What the actual ****.

    Luckily we have the ref to help us out.

    No, you had Hayes for that

    Watched the 2nd half, two very poor teams on display today

    Edit: What a free kick

    Cracking free kick, wasn't a foul though.

    Who's at fault Jelle?

    Great free kick.

    At the end of the clip they show the tackle that caused the free kick. Looks like the rangers player got the ball cleanly but he was slightly behind the player when he made the tackle so you could see how the ref could give a free for it from his view.

    Warburton's overreaction is revealing, had it easy last year stepped up a level now and he's struggling at this level.

    2nd biggest budget in Scotland and they'll struggle to make the top half of the table without making a change somewhere


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,086 ✭✭✭✭A Dub in Glasgo


    To be fair, 2nd place is on 12 and 7th place on 9, not much of a gap

    Savage free kick. Absolute peach. Never a foul in a million years though.

    2nd place isn't good enough but is a must!

    Not happy, pressure of trying to be second best seems to be taking toll.

    It wasn't a foul but these things happen, it wasn't like it was a penalty kick that was given in error. Warburton's post match reaction was telling. Sometimes a manager will deliberately "lose the head" with officials to maybe get them "think" about future decisions in future games, it's hard to know for sure, or maybe Warburton is feeling under pressure and lost the head?

    Neil Lennon got a 6 match touchline ban when he was Celtic manager a few years back for confronting officials post match in a similar fashion, will Warbs face any such sanction for his post match outburst yesterday one wonders?

    Warbs has been offered a 1 match ban for his outburst last Sunday.

    Slap on the wrist for Warbs.

    Ridiculous slap on the wrist. Didn't Lennon get 6 games for similar.

    Warbs doesn't seem to be able to handle the slightest bit of pressure, so I doubt this will be the last outburst though.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 9,839 ✭✭✭Jelle1880


    Hilarious that you claim Warburton can't handle pressure in a post that talks about Lennon :pac:

    In other news: Apparently Hibs and Rangers both had their charges by the SFA for the incidents at the Cup Final withdrawn. Rangers' charge was withdrawn because Hibs' charge had been dismissed.

    ****ing joke that is, thousands come on the pitch, hundreds storm to the Rangers end intent on trouble, players get involved and somehow it's all fine ?
    Basically saying if it happens again it's allowed.

    Lennon could handle the pressure, of that there was no doubt. He had to endure death threats, bullets in the post and being attacked by fans of your club and others and took it all in his stride. He probably took his frustrations out on the games officials, but I reckon he knew what he was doing, probably trying to bully them into giving decisions in his teams favour which a lot of managers do.

    Do you think Warbs was doing the same last Sunday, or did he just lose the head?

    Maybe Warburton was just complaining to the ref about a decision that cost his side 3 points ?
    If it was overly aggressive then a 1 match touchline ban seems fair. As long as he doesn't start to sneakily claim there are 'honest mistakes' being given against Rangers.

    I doubt however that if he would have been sent to the stands that he would have then gotten into an altercation with the fourth official. Or did you forget that that was why Lennon was given a 6 match ban ? The fact he has gotten another ban since then clearly shows he has issues when it comes to his behaviour.

    Considering Forresters 2 challenges this season that should have should have been reds, he'd need to have a neck made of brass to complain about mistakes against his team.

    Part of Lennon's make up as a manager, a lot of manager even the very top ones often get touchline bans for having a go at the officials. Doesn't stop Lennon from being a fairly good manager, did a good job at Celtic, did a reasonable job initially at Bolton and has made a good start at Hibernian as well. The "honest mistakes" reference came from one of the officials back then. As for Warbs, I think you might have to get used to his outbursts, there's a good chance there'll be more of them. Will you question Warbs "behaviour" then Jelle?

    Are you Chris Sutton ?

    What the **** are you even on about ? He had the one at Pittodrie, that's it.

    No, why? Is he alone in thinking late, wreckless, headless challenges should be given a red as according to the laws of the game??

    He's the only idiot who brings up Forrester in every conversation it seems. Hence.

    Your post didn't even make sense as Warburton isn't talking about some perceived bias against his team.
    Unlike others.

    You're beginning to sound like Warbs now.

    Speaking of pundits Derek (Charlatan) Johnstone it appears was saying that Warbs was unlikely to have used foul and abusive language in his outburst last Sunday, however it turns out the officials report appears to indicate otherwise.:pac:
