Life has knocked me down a few times. I experienced sadness and failures. But one thing for sure, I always get up!

@LiamK86 @lovenkrandz Ball movement on the first contact doesn’t make it a foul. The foul is actually when he is brought down IMO, second and third contact. Law 12 “•impedes an opponent with contact “

@JMbu1982 @lovenkrandz I’m not saying it’s a foul just because there is a first contact. I’m saying the first contact changes the trajectory of the ball meaning by the time the second contact comes in Moore has no chance of getting a shot away which is why it’s a foul on the first contact. i

@LiamK86 @lovenkrandz Couple of referees I know, are going to ask the question at the next meet-up. They see the foul as his standing leg being taken away. There is no first contact in the Laws of the game.

@JMbu1982 @lovenkrandz The first contact moves the ball out the way so that is what stops the shot by the time the 2nd contact comes he was never in a position to take the shot. Thats why first contact is the point of the foul.

@LiamK86 @lovenkrandz I disagree. There is no law about “first contact” I keep hearing that & it’s driving me insane. Players ride tackles all the time. What matters is where the foul actually occurs. 2 things stop the shot: his standing foot is taken & his shooting foot is impeded.

@JMbu1982 @lovenkrandz By the time the second contact comes the ball is already away from him so he’s not getting a shot away. The first contacts is where he is impeded which is outside the box. Should have been a Greek kick and red ca d right enough.

@EwenDCameron @allanbstewart1 @RFC_Michael_ Ewen, please explain this first contact reasoning that is not in the IFAB laws. The first contact was not a foul as the player rides it and then his standing foot is taken out? I have asked a couple of referees I know and there is no such thing as first contact….?

@allanbstewart1 @RFC_Michael_ Var only got involved to see if it was a penalty. It was clear the foul was outside the box at first contact. Irrelevant what happens next

The biggest controversy at Livingston was the Kerr tackle on Moore. It wasn’t a penalty as the first contact is outside the box. The law is very clear on this. The initial contact was outside the box & the rest of his body follows through into the box. "Foul continuing into the box" is only for holding/pulling. It doesnt count for pushing or kicking. However, the big debate should be was Kerr denying Moore a goal scoring opportunity? If the answer is yes? It’s a red card and Rangers have plenty of time to get a winner v 9 players.

@Jas72Boyd No chance, foul is at 10 seconds on your clip. Initial contact did nothing to stop Moore from planting his foot ready for a strike. That’s a penalty.

I know 95% disagree with me, but its clear from this video, control of the ball was lost at initial tackle & not trailing leg contact. By time the 2nd leg hit him, the balls out of control. 100% not a penalty. 100% Foul outside box Law 12 DOGSO. Defo debateable. Ref = HOWLER !

@EwenDCameron Into a contact sport, the first contact on his calf is not the foul that brings him down. The fouls are the second and third without touching the ball. spothttps://x.com/derrohlsouness/status/2025641065169015147?s=46

@ScotlandSky Football is a contact sport. A foul isn’t first contact — it’s when the challenge becomes careless & actually trips the player. Moore is wiped out with his foot on the line, that’s where the offence occurs. The line is part of the box.

🗣️ “The referee called it wrong on the pitch.” 🗣️ “I think it’s a red card and a foul. I don't think it's a penalty." The Sky Sports studio look at Rangers’ claim for a foul on Mikey Moore towards the end of their draw at Livingston ⤵️

With the pyramid now set to shift quite a bit over the coming year, I thought I'd take a look back at the inaugural season of the @OfficialSLFL and look at how each side has fared in the 12 years since. 🧶

Edinburgh City: Edinburgh City didn't spend long in the SLFL. They ended the inaugural season in 5th before winning back-to-back titles and gaining a place in SPFL League 2. The Citizens would go up again, in 2021/22 but rejoined League 2 last year & finished 3rd this season.

@WingsScotland @frankdr49326393 No it’s not. If you think it is, you have no clue about the game. Anyone from any team trying to say this is a foul is delusional or at the wind up! 🤣

No idea why the BBC are punting this as Earth's greatest injustice. It's a BIT soft, but from this angle it's clear head contact and that's idiotic when you're on a yellow.
