@LordCLQTR @TheScotsman She gets paid more as a KC than a law officer

@TheScotsman Hmmm Somebody doesn’t fancy any questions in Holyrood committees. It must be bad if she’s jumping off the gravy train!

Lord Advocate Dorothy Bain tells John Swinney she is standing down trib.al/cQvTVHR

@JamieBrysonLLB You an advocate now too 🤣🤣🤣?

Just finished a full day in the High Court, out to check the phone- how has John Beaton not been suspended from refereeing & an investigation commenced yet?

@Erudite4Unity Fuck me, all the rats are coming out of the woodwork. Beaton never gave Celtic anything in real time “eagerly” or “unhesitatingly” Maeda wiped out - no penalty or red Trusty - handball, elbow in the face and push in the back! VAR Grow the fuck up - Huns not even playing

I was asked an interesting question today. Has Beaton been bribed, has he been threatened or is it just plain cowardice that makes him give these decisions so consistently, so eagerly and so unhesitatingly?

@L2Box1 Aye ok Billy 🤣🤣🤣 Away and pull your wire

Please go and look at the clip of the throw in, Celtic players foots over the line, so the it is or is not handball doesn’t matter, there was a foul throw in NO PENALTY @ScottishFootballAssosiation?

@pieandbov Were you Hun animals playing?

I’ve seen enough. If he’s given that for handball, as we are being told, then that is an absolutely SCANDALOUS decision.

What a treat to hear a world renowned physicist lecturing us all last night on the way a ball bounces .

@KBob64 @henke_hoops @ClydeSSB And the world remains silent on Maeda being clobbered - penalty and a red

@henke_hoops @ClydeSSB Problem is Beaton did not think it was a pen until he was sent to monitor. For the 3rd time this season he has not given us a penalty which he has had to go to a monitor to tell him he's made a mistake and needs to correct it.

Gordon Duncan not being very impartial tonight @ClydeSSB John Beaton thought it was a penalty, Andrew Dallas thought it was. Many think it was, many think it wasn’t. Should the 2 refs have thought, “I think this is a penalty but I better alter that opinion in case others dont”

@p____67 Getting a boob job 😊

Is it not a bit weird that we never see Jota? Was he there last night? Feel like I’ve no seen him in ages

@CornerRadish @MacGerrard_ Great guy - that’s why he threatened to harm hi girlfriend, tried to hush it up and got drummed out of Hibs for bullying. Fucking legend so he is Rat more like

@MacGerrard_ Lenny is a good guy. I remember Craig Levein singing his praises for his attentiveness and support after his (Levein's) heart attack. Lennon has always been a bit of a pantomime villain but he knows his stuff and calls it as he sees it

Neil Lennon on Sky Sports “ Yes I’ve seen it! I’ve listened to all the opinions today, there’s not a discussion to be had! Motherwell have been cheated out of a point. If that happened to any club in the league they’d feel aggrieved. John has been foolish, I can’t see how he made a decision and I don’t see how the referee association hasn’t come out and apologised”

@EwenDCameron @JonnyLavn @Rangers4life_ Course it did ya fucking clown! What is the circumference of a ball compared a head. His hand was in front of his head. Did it vanish

@JonnyLavn @Rangers4life_ Didn’t hit his hand, though That’s why it has been WIDELY CONDEMNED

🚨SFA STANDS BY JOHN BEATON This season has been an utter embarrassment and last night was the tipping point. I’ve never seen a decision, in Scottish football, to be so widely condemned and this should be a watershed moment for our national game All fans should unite against Temu VAR and the poor refereeing standards. And before anyone says it….YES….I’m very aware that Hearts have benefitted from some poor decisions this season. However, we need to look at the bigger picture here and demand change. A good start would be… …SACK WILLIE COLLUM.

@EwenDCameron Ok fuckwit Seeing as you didn’t answer before - which of the 3 infringements in the 1 incident were not fouls? Handball? Elbow to face? Push to back? And then there was keeper on Maeda - Red and penalty! No? And just how hard done to were Hearts? Not even fucking playing

@JohnWight1 Jim is giving his best David Tanner defence. If he goes quiet folk will forget he said it

The clear penalty was the result of both a handball and an elbow. The anti-Celtic voices in response are redolent of something else.

@JamieBrysonLLB Mind the Huns were buying him beer too

He should never referee again. Just what do they have on Beaton that he’s so blatantly debase himself & cheat in front of the world’s media?

@citizentommy Fuck sake Tommy - are you not familiar with the vanishing hand trick?

Absolutely conclusive. Stonewall penalty every day of the week. We should have had a penalty for Maeda being wiped out by the Motherwell keeper in the first half but no outcry about that one from the Celtic haters. The anti-Celtic bias in the corporate media is shameless 👌🍀

@attendant1867 @TadhgHickey So we should just let dishonesty rule because we do know that applies in Scotland? VAR has correctly overturned many duff calls None of these “contentious” decisions were given in Celtic’s favour in real time

@scripture36 @TadhgHickey I hate VAR being the great invention they claim .Watched football happily and unhappily for 46 years it was better before VAR .Even with all the mistakes , that’s what I’m saying .Not talking about individual incidents or games .Refs should ref for good and bad

Yeah.

@brz_1872 You were not too pleased when Shankland handled the ball if I recall

If Hearts go and do it on Saturday, they’ll have not only won the league against all odds, they’ll have done it while being governed by the most corrupted group of officials in any football league in Europe. It will be the most commendable title win we’ve ever seen in Scotland.

@alegil2101 That’s because there were multiple infringements - all of which were penalties. Handball Elbow in the face Push in the back One incident Let’s ignore the red card and penalty for the assault on Maeda by the goalie tho. Sshhh

🤣🤣🤣 this is also wild from Martin o'neil, he has no idea what it was given for but says its a clear penalty, wow

@attendant1867 @TadhgHickey So are either of them penalties? Quite simple aye or naw? If so what the fuck is the problem? Neither were given in real time

@scripture36 @TadhgHickey It might well be a penalty , that’s not my gripe it’s VAR .Im not a “hun “ My team thankful play in the championship and it is a great relief there is no VAR

@mmgeissler @JamTarts Fuck you

Couldn’t be more bored of penalty chat now. Let’s just go through there on Saturday and get this won @JamTarts

@TonyMcKelvie Aye - let’s just ignore an elbow in the face and a push in the back. Fuck right off Oh and Maeda being wiped out earlier - where’s the fuss about that. What’s a red card for a goalie after all?

It's absurd that a handball like that results in a penalty. There is no correlation between the significance of the foul and the consequences of the award. It’s a crap rule. But the ball hit his hand and his hand was raised above his shoulder and the rule directs a penalty kick.
