Paranoid? Not paranoid enough over Farry, Dougie Dougie and Dallas

With no answers or explanations offered the usual suspects have been playing the paranoid and conspiracy cards to deflect away from the events at Ibrox on Monday.

After the match there were no questions to Ange Postecoglou about the handball incident when Connor Goldson pushed away a shot from Carl Starfelt.

BBC Scotland tried to airbrush it from their follow up coverage of the match but the pesky internet bampots wouldn’t let it go.

They kept on the subject, threw up more examples of double standards while someone briefed the mainstream about an irrelevant Q and A from IFAB. Not the Laws of the Game.

The video clips continued, the stats came out and the full on deflection kicked in. Celtic fans are paranoid, look at all of the trophies they have won.

The trophy count is irrelevant, what is an issue is that the Premiership leaders have had five penalties awarded against them in 21 matches. With a vastly inferior goal difference the Ibrox club have yet to have a penalty awarded against them. Domestically.

In Europe four penalties were awarded against Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s side in just 10 matches. It can happen.

Today at Celtic Park Nick Walsh refereed Celtic for the fourth time in 21 matches, on Monday he’ll be back at his day job working on the fitness of the Murray Park starlets.

Tomorrow at Tannadice Steven McLean will referee the visit of Micky Beale’s side. His brother started off his journeyman career at Ibrox, dreaming of playing for Rangers.

In England no such conflict of interest would be allowed, in Scotland it is all part of the culture.
