Micky Beale has had a swift reply to his request for an explanation over a ‘goal’ from Alfredo Morelos getting disallowed against Celtic on Saturday.

Straight after the match the Ibrox boss highlighted the issue in his interviews with Sky Sports, BBC Scotland and the all-in media conference.

The incident was well covered by Sky Sports, highlighting Alastair Johnston jousting with Morelos with the Columbian finishing the contact by pulling Johnston towards him then using both hands to push him to the ground.

Kevin Clancy immediately disallowed the goal, VAR checked it over and decided that there was nothing wrong with the referee’s assessment.

In the statement following the abuse and threats to Kevin Clancy the SFA announced:

The Scottish FA can also confirm the Referee Operations team have responded to Rangers’ request for an explanation for an on-field decision involving Alfredo Morelos.

It should be a fairly straightforward communication, explaining that the Ibrox striker was pushing and pulling at an opponent before the ball hit his shin and ended up in the net.

There has been no follow up over claims made by James Tavernier and Beale that Jota used his arm in the build up to Kyogo Furuhashi’s second goal.

    It’s starting to get sad about that lot, starting on the refs family about decisions, how far is this going to go.

    Don’t worry, they’ll be back to being world-beaters in the week up to the next Celtic match. I have that from an impeccable source.

    Should have been a two word answer !! This entitled mob howling at the moon because things going from bad to worse down Govan way .maybe they should spend more time on the training ground than in the courts

    Why do the Lavygargllers always blame someone else for their own failures.
    If only everything was perfect in life then Rangers would not have been lliquidated, they would not have ruined innocent peoples lives if they had just paid the debt, David Murray chased an impossible dream and left the club owing millions upon millions, even after he had transferred a lot of debt to his mimtec business which also bit the dust.
    But that’s not the fault of Rangers, it was everyone out to get them, now we have The Rangers and a familiar story is arising.
    Where does it stop, so deep rooted is the hatred that they blame others for self inflected problems.
    All the issues are created at ibrox and it needs to be corrected and stopped at ibrox.
    The Rangers are now the joke club around Europe, smart players won’t sign for them with the baggage the club carries.
    R I P Rangers, the ibrox club really do need to get their house in order or I fear it will be R I P The Rangers also.
