‘Petty wee fanboy newspaper’ ‘Wrong again’ ‘circulation heading to zero !!!’ Celtic fans set the Record straight over Jenz red card wish

Taking their lead from Ibrox social media backed by a podcast from two former SFA referees it was all too good to resist for the Sports Desk at the Daily Record.
‘Selik had pyoor got away wae wan’ screamed the gullible and soon their delusions were all confirmed by the Glasgow based publisher.
The thought of checking the Laws of the Game never occurred, get the story out there, count the clicks and get back on to their favourite forums and Twitter accounts for further exclusives.
Unfortunately for their Army of Readers there is no automatic booking for celebrating a goal with supporters.
You will get booked for taking your shirt off (ask Liel Abada) or for jumping over hoardings but not for simply joining supporters in a goal celebration.
Never mind, job done, lets get on with inspecting that offside goal at Ibrox on Saturday and why John Lundstram has never been booked in an SPFL Premiership match…
The Record remains a big favourite of Celtic with the Communications Manager ensuring that they get special access ahead of all fan websites and podcasts.
Maybe he doesn’t know the rules ?? It’s not a booking as he left the field, didn’t‘jump’ as the article says and re entered the pitch – get the facts right please pic.twitter.com/HVRSlqrJ9A

The fear’s set in quite quickly for them, eh. Must’ve noticed the new additions and replacements that arrived in Govan are pish.

Haha your really are a petty wee fanboy newspaper. It is embarrassing you still get away with this old style reports.

Leaving the field isn’t an offence. He didn’t remove his top or cover his face. He didn’t climb the barrier so ? is all he could be cautioned for but it’s got to be judged as a safety issue “approaching the spectators in a manner which causes safety and/or security issues”????

Livi disallowed goal brushed under the carpet Bob. The Greg Taylor assault described as a “wee tackle” and Morelos perfectly good goal.
