Griffiths' stamp

There's so much wrong with this.

Lennon says there was no malice. He would have been 'bewildered' if Griffiths had been charged, 'he was just trying to free his leg'.
Lennon would have been foaming had the roles been reversed.
Had Sam Woods been the stamper rather than the stamped-upon, what do you think might have happened?
'We're big on discipline here'. Said Lennon who confirmed this with a 'quiet word' with Griffiths about the shove on Gogic which earned both a booking.
A 3-man panel of former referees found referee Nick Walsh had acted correctly in keeping the red card in his pocket.

Does anyone remember an incident about 5 years ago behind the goal line at the Shed end. One of our defenders flicked out a leg in the general direction of a Celtic player after a tussle as the ball went out of play. He was retrospectively banned. An innocuous flick, not near the player, ball out of play.

The SFA today have charged the two teams with 'failing to act in an orderly fashion' over the incident. So as well as Accies not gaining the player advantage with the game goalless they're away to be docked £5k. Stamped on and shat upon. Good old Sellic.

Re: Griffiths' stamp

Not a red card for me tbh mate! However that charge is a embarrassment, football is a passionate game, sometimes boils over so what that’s what we love about it

Think you are writing about the Gavin Gunning and Virgil Van Dilk incident. YouTube video below: Mad Gav made his kick more obvious than the initial one from Van Dijk, but the panel watching that in the following days must have had very poor eyesight not to have noticed the full incident. Which was really nothing, no reaction from the players or aftermath of any kind.

Aye, Celtic as a club and their fans like to think they are hard done to, but they get off with rule breaking much more than most. I wonder why?
