Were we appealing against sterling's red card today? Any news on it?

scotty_dog

1.) 08 Feb 2024 20:34:16
Appeal was rejected. Two game ban.


2.) 08 Feb 2024 20:45:05
Rejected. Fast track decision.


3.) 08 Feb 2024 20:50:40
We have appealed it yeah.


4.) 08 Feb 2024 21:06:35
Lost the appeal.


5.) 08 Feb 2024 21:07:01
The appeal failed.


6.) 08 Feb 2024 21:51:29
We were always going to lose that appeal. Referees in media lately saying not getting support from Hampden and a ref finally sticks to their on field decisions
decision. All politics but he misses Ayr and Ross County I think so we’ll cope without and move on.

I said it yesterday and say it again, never a red and ref stuck to that decision out of arrogance.


7.) 08 Feb 2024 23:03:22
Always had to appeal it to be fair but never thought they would let him off, two games that we should be ok without him tho, newsboys should get a start on Saturday still keep a strong line up tho until game is won then get subs on, time to get used to burying teams and get games won as quick as possible, win every game up to split should be enough to wrap up title.


8.) 08 Feb 2024 23:12:43
Feel for Sterling though I’d imagine he would have been starting on Saturday so although we will cope without him it’s a kick in the teeth for him personally.


9.) 09 Feb 2024 00:20:52
People need to take blue tints off he's lunged and landed on boys foot easily a red and no way the appeal was going to work.

We should be compiling the events of season though desser/ roofe goal
The handball last game blatant decisions that seem to keep going in celtics favour the obvious media campaign against rangers with penalties even though celtic have had more in league and conceded none and keep getting soft decisions.


10.) 09 Feb 2024 03:28:32
Red card every day of the week.


11.) 09 Feb 2024 04:01:35
That wasn’t a red and it wasn’t a lunge he slipped studs weren’t showing either. It’s one thing I can’t be accused of is blue tinted specs.


12.) 09 Feb 2024 06:48:31
I was told I obviously have never played football at any level if I thought that was a red. Didn't realise you were only allowed an opinion if you had played.
Storm there was a slip but I've looked at it over and over and the slip happens at the same time as contact is made, it didn't cause the contact, it did mean he followed
through and made it look worse. It
was a silly challenge that didn't need to be made in that area of the pitch and he gave the ref an excuse to flash the red.


13.) 09 Feb 2024 08:07:20
Yeah the chosen few on here that have played the game nonsense Jfm63. don't know why they are on a fans forum in the 1st place has they clearly know more than the rest of us. Guys that played the game 25 years ago know very little of the game now as its completely different to when they played. The other one that's appearing a lot on here a lot is the Clement knows better chat. Yes of course he does but this is a fans forum for fans to debate all things Rangers.


14.) 09 Feb 2024 08:55:11
Thought it was a red personally. Easily meets the first criteria of endangering an opponent and excessive force. Could easily meet the second criteria as well (though I don't think it was a lunge I think it was a slip - either way, the lunge isn't required, the excessive force and endangering an opponent criteria is enough) .

Actual IFAB Rules wording:

Serious foul play
A tackle or challenge that endangers the safety of an opponent or uses excessive force or brutality must be sanctioned as serious foul play.

Any player who lunges at an opponent in challenging for the ball from the front, from the side or from behind using one or both legs, with excessive force or endangers the safety of an opponent is guilty of serious foul play.


15.) 09 Feb 2024 09:27:18
I'm a qualified referee and tbh I don't think it's a red, however I can also see why the ref did give red in real time due to speed sterling went in at. I'm surprised he didn't overturn it at the monitor tho.


16.) 09 Feb 2024 10:03:57
Endangers the safety of an opponent?
Standing on someones toe? Both feet on the ground?
I know what guys i wouldn't want playing for my team or having my back, wow.
Are we now penalising players for being bigger, stronger and faster?

If that's a red card then there is going to be 3 or 4 red card a game.

Celtic vs Hibs, Ralston goes through the Hibs player in the build up to the 2nd penalty, yes he wins the ball but has slide in two feet off the ground and put the Hibs player up in the air.

So is it ok to endanger a player if you win the ball?


17.) 09 Feb 2024 10:09:00
As much as I would rather we weren't as lightweight in todays game. That is a red card all day long by todays standards and had I seen it in any other game I would have expected him to stick to his decision.


18.) 09 Feb 2024 10:58:49
Ally with the dictionary definition of blue tinted specs there.

He was neither standing nor had two feet on the ground, Sterling literally slid right through him (though obviously unintentionally) and wiped him out after he stood on his toe.

If he hadn't slipped and gone through him, he wouldn't have been sent off IMO, but he did so he was.

And "winning the ball" means nothing in the modern game, no. If you win the ball with excessive force endangering an opponent you're walking. We've seen it multiple times.


19.) 09 Feb 2024 11:14:51
At the game I thought it was 100% red card all day however after having seen it back although it was careless, definitely only a yellow.


20.) 09 Feb 2024 12:23:10
Never a red.


21.) 09 Feb 2024 12:50:50
It was never a red but the appeals committee were nevr going to over rule it . If Cifuentes`ordering off for the small tap on the Dundee player was upheld then this one was always going to be the same. We should be okay for the next two games without him, take it on the chin and move on. No offence to the " qualified ref" who thought it was a red, we are watching qualified Grade 1 refs getting decisions badly wrong every week throughout the league, not something to boast about mate.


22.) 09 Feb 2024 15:05:38
I said i didn't think it was a red wsl, if that was aimed at me. What i said was in real time I can see why ref thought it was, I also said I was surprised it wasn't downgraded when ref had chance to see it again on monitor.


23.) 09 Feb 2024 15:45:57
Sorry but if that's anyone on a rangers player your all calling red card.


24.) 13 Feb 2024 14:12:11
I'm honestly not!

Not to be, fine margins, who knows if not for all the injuries, could we have done it. Nice to see a full ibrox still singing for the team after the final whistle. On to dundee at the weekend, must win.

03 Mar 2024 15:44:32
Do we think big Phil will change the tactics a bit now, with all the injuries, ie lack of wide players if mcausland joins cortes in the long term sick Bay?

scotty_dog

1.) 03 Mar 2024 16:22:31
I wondered if we’d perhaps see Ishaka, Lovelace or Stevens more?


2.) 03 Mar 2024 16:24:27
Can’t see McCausland being out long term given it was an impact injury.


3.) 03 Mar 2024 16:31:03
Think we'll see Wright start.


4.) 03 Mar 2024 17:05:55
Just when I felt better about the weekend, EHL, you come out with that one?! Thanks!


5.) 03 Mar 2024 19:17:56
Gaun yerself Scotty boy.


6.) 03 Mar 2024 19:29:29
Wright to fire us in to the next round of the cup with the winner against Hibs.


7.) 03 Mar 2024 19:46:43
Why not Wright. At least we will get a trier. Seems to me Clement likes him or why be on the squad every gam. Must be doing something right.


8.) 03 Mar 2024 22:18:20
Get a trier? Let’s just play fans then as well as they will try.


9.) 03 Mar 2024 22:27:20
Correct imperial, not too difficult to work out. Or does the boss, or previous bosses, not know what he's doing?


10.) 04 Mar 2024 07:45:10
We also have a trier who is reasonable high in scoring charts, he gets it stinking on here, at least he scores, assists aye n misses, Wright flatters to deceive imo, Big PC in centre circle wi Broxi "Help! Help!, is there a winger in the stands! " ?.


11.) 04 Mar 2024 07:59:18
MyStar sterling is a RB that's why we got him, he happens to be a very good solid utility player who can play in a few positions, LB is not one of his best, though he has and can, imho.


 

 

24 Feb 2024 17:35:27
Wow, never saw that score coming today! Big Phil is certainly getting his ideas and team spirit across week by week, long may it continue, be nice if they slip up tomorrow as well. Tonight's beer will be very tasty! WATP.

14 Jan 2024 19:10:05
We do score less than those across the city, but is that not because their players ( midfielders as well) are prepared to gamble and shoot from anywhere around the box, whereas we seem to want to score the perfect tap-ins all the time? Surely we practice shooting in training?

scotty_dog

1.) 14 Jan 2024 20:03:40
They don’t score lots of goals from outside the box. What they do though is commit more players into goal scoring positions. PC is addressing that and I expect our goal return to increase and be spread.


2.) 14 Jan 2024 20:23:35
Celtic are faster at moving the ball and creating space whereas we are slow and are faced with 10 defenders to shoot through.


3.) 14 Jan 2024 20:42:10
Cantwell is on 40k a week to provide the goals but he's vastly underachieving.


4.) 14 Jan 2024 21:15:34
They have a cf we don’t.


5.) 14 Jan 2024 21:20:02
It’s cause they have better attacking players mate. Pretty simple stuff.


6.) 14 Jan 2024 21:24:46
Scotty good point mate, can't remember where I seen it but that mob have more shots on goal than us by over 100 I'm sure it was, that needs to change.


7.) 14 Jan 2024 22:20:28
We had goal scoring midfielders in Arfield, Tillman and maybe even Aribo which haven’t been replaced.

Would be surprised if any of our Mids get double figures this year. Which leaves the goals to come from our RB and ST. And we all know how great Dessers is in front of goal….


8.) 14 Jan 2024 22:50:19
Herbert I feel your wording of vastly is being incredibly kind.


9.) 15 Jan 2024 00:56:54
Why is everyone obsessed with goals scored here’s one for you

Last season we scored more goals than season we won league

Problem was we conceeded 3x as many goals good defenders win leagues just as much as attackers do.


10.) 15 Jan 2024 00:58:01
Is there many teams that win leagues by simply trying to out score everyone else

How many games did we win 1-0 when we won league.


11.) 15 Jan 2024 00:59:20
I agree with shoot on site policy though with strikers being ready to follow in for any spills by keeper.


 

 

13 Jan 2024 17:15:37
That was indeed a hard watch, I know it was a training game on an awful pitch, but it got worse the longer it went on. I imagine big Phil has learnt more about the squad today. Some strange refereeing decisions as well.

scotty_dog

1.) 13 Jan 2024 17:39:34
Scotty I actually thought we were better in second half, only raskin played well first half.

Second half mcausland yefeko rice cifu all were ok.


2.) 13 Jan 2024 17:56:42
PC wouldn’t have learned much from a game that was for fitness.


3.) 13 Jan 2024 18:22:33
Apparently Clement received a red card.


4.) 13 Jan 2024 18:34:50
Cifu what dugrubbish mate.


5.) 13 Jan 2024 18:54:30
Agree john re yfeko mcausland rice.


6.) 13 Jan 2024 18:46:18
Second half we had Fraser, Yfeko, McKinnon, Rice, and King all academy players, and with McCausland we carried. more of a threat offensively.
Yfeko might be the next academy player to make the step up to the 1st Team squad.
Agree John second half we we’re better but we missed the physical precence and goalscoring threat from Sima.
Next up FC København.


7.) 13 Jan 2024 18:54:30
Agree john re yfeko, McCausland, rice.


8.) 13 Jan 2024 18:55:46
I thought Yefeko looked a bit more polished than before. 2nd half we put together a few decent passing moves just couldn't finish then off. Training game only though. I eluded to something yesterday about left and right backs and just thinking would it be an idea just to get a fit half decent robust back 6 or 7 and put all our cash on the front end. Is that a model that could work.

Q, Could Kilmarnocks back 6 with the addition of 15 million pounds worth of a front 5 win the SPL.

I forgot my password again so i'm up to a few more dots after my usual user name lol.


9.) 13 jan 2024 20:58:24
again mate, how many times a day can you post the same thing

for info, the players are fit, they wer3 training everyday until a couple of days ago

these games are fir the manager to look at his team, not fitness, so drop that drivel please,

Wouldn't rely on that site for information, last week they predicted a Rangers starting 11, with only 10 players in it!

I would hope that butland has more about him, to think playing in relegation battles at forest, would get him in the England squad.

I could not imagine butland wanting to move to forest, at any price. He turned down more money at utd to sit on the bench, than forest could afford to pay!

Butland could probably earn more at forest, but he turned down more money to come to ibrox. At his age he wants the chance to win trophies and I couldn't see him wanting to play in a struggling forest team, no chance of trophies, no Europe either. I cannot see him ever wanting to join a club in their position.

The club are hardly likely to announce anything until there's something definite in place, are they? We'll all just have to wait and see if anything develops either way.

PSB, I'm with you there, in September the season was "over" and this man has completely turned it around. He keeps saying its not him, it's the players, just hope he keeps rubbing his magic off on them. Disappointed we lost, but domestically that could be a blessing in disguise. Onwards and upwards with big Phil!

Today was obviously about minutes in the legs of others in the squad, but that will be nowhere near the starting line up midweek I hope. We really have to go for the throat and keep the pressure up!
