Celtic have stepped up criticism of Scottish referees on their Twitter account today. 

Ange Postecoglou was very outspoken during his media conferences yesterday, highlighting how he told his players to avoid tackling and physical contact in the closing stages of the Scottish Cup tie against Alloa Athletic. 

The hoops boss highlighted the responsibility that referees have to apply the Laws of the Game to protect players, at Alloa Callum McGregor, Liel Abada and Yosuke Guchi were all injured with Stephen Welsh and Jota lucky to avoid being added to that list. 

It is very unusual for club media to highlight any areas of controversy, last season the club provided no coverage of Neil Lennon’s explosive criticism of the authorities following Celtic’s training trip to Dubai. 

Despite Postecoglou’s comments it remains to be seen if Celtic take the issue up with the SFA at the 2021 AGM Ian Bankier claimed that the club was working on referee issues in the background.

    It’s about time the spineless Celtic board started causing eruptions with the sfa ,what happens if one of these tackles ends one of our players career. They are his employer and are duty bound to look after his welfare at work ie on the football field.

    Eternal thanks to Wim for what he did. He not only stopped the financially doped old Rangers from cheating their way to 10 titles, he also started the chain of events that eventually lead to their final demise in 2012.
    The new club has a proud record of one major trophy in 10 years.
