Even Kenny Miller couldn’t find a justification for yesterday’s Tavpen against St Mirren.

Trailing 1-0 Declan Gallagher stretched to cut out a pass into the near post with Antonio Colak then arriving on the scene and jumping over the St Mirren defender. Regular viewers know what follows next.

Refereeing his third Ibrox SPFL match of the season Nick Walsh pointed to the penalty spot, a decision that Miller couldn’t justify as he sat in the Sportscene studio with big Thommo EBT.

Watching the BBC Scotland show, the Daily Record reports Miller saying:

I would love to say it’s a stonewaller but I’d have to say big Declan Gallagher has definitely got the first touch. But Colak comes from Deccy’s blind side, Deccy’s trying to watch the ball and keep an eye on the man but Colak’s movement again, he’s always on the move and being pro-active. He just gets across but Declan Gallagher no doubt got the sole of his boot on that ball so it’s a harsh decision.

Tomorrow Walsh will be back at his day job, training Murray Park starlets at Boclair Academy, Bearsden.

    It’s cheating pure and simple to give an advantage to his benefactors.

    He has awarded sevco 17 penalties in the 24 games he has officiated involving them.

    There is a clear conflict of interest involving this corrupt official when he refs sevco games.

    He has no professional integrity or self respect, and it is scandalous that the football authorities allow him to get away with this.

    This young ref definitely has great potential (excellent in the last derby game)…..

    However he is determined to destroy his career through his obvious chosen path.

    Editor: Says it all that applying the rules is judged to be excellent (except when Kent tripped Abada in the box after 13 minutes with Celtic already 1-0 up). He has an excellent record in red carding Sevco opponents and assisting Tavpen.

    The look of despair and disappointment on the faces of Thompson and Miller on the Sportscene redacted show ,was absolutely compulsive viewing ! Their body language at the reality of Celtic securing 3 points ,proves just how much biased this embarrassment for a sports programme really is ! Obviously the producer of said show is not a Celtic person .

    Alasdair Lamont,that world famous the Rangers BBC person ,must be raking in the licence money wages . He was Sportsound match caller live at lunchtime in Perth ,and was Sportscene agent at the highlights show mic in the evening ! The only way to do that is to superimpose his voice for the later show ,meaning the BBC in Scotland are taking the piss out of the average licence tax payer ! The English have live commentary on their football matches for the BBC ,we in Scotland get crapped on from e great height . Cheapskate half morons !
