Even Kenny Miller can’t make a case for Nick Walsh’s latest Tavpen

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.
