At Ibrox today Steven McLean hoisted the total up to a half century.
It is now 50 SPFL matches since a penalty was awarded against the Ibrox Tribute Act, following that decision in January 2021 by Kevin Clancy a dossier was leaked to Sky Sports much like last week’s hysterics.
It took just four minutes for McLean to point to the penalty spot today but despite his vast experience Tavpen failed to find the net. Later in the first half Tony Watt was bundled off the ball by Ben Davies but McLean assisted by Andrew Dallas on VAR allowed play to continue.

It really is incredible that three clubs in the bottom six have a higher penalty differential that Celtic who have ran up 98 goals in 32 SPFL matches.
David Dickinson will referee tomorrow’s match away to Kilmarnock, Celtic were awarded back-to-back penalties against Hibs and Ross County but there isn’t likely to be much money placed on a penalty being awarded to the visitors tomorrow.
