It's no shock to anyone out with Celtic.

This is interesting from the Scottish ref association,

Referees perform a difficult role in an intensely demanding environment.

That may have been the case years ago, but when you have three people watching reruns on video and still can't get it right then I'm sorry you lose all sympathy.

This decision aside, my impression is that Scottish refs let a lot more go than 'down south'. I am used to watching the PL and players falling over when their opponent farts near them. My frequent refrain when watching Scottish football is 'that's a free in the prem'. Southern softies.

It's a terrible thing, a game which should be such fun for all is ruined by mainly parents. My son stop playing 40 years ago as he didn't like the way parents behaved at games and played cricket, its improved in most cases where I've seen my grandsons play but there are still idiots who spoil things. I was lucky my Dad didn't see me play until I was in my 20's as he worked Saturday mornings and I didn't play Sunday football till then. It was something I shared with my mates and only our manager judged us.
 
Is the only Scottish team left in Europe Hearts? Or are Celtic still in, but dropped down a league?

Would be funny if the only Scottish team not to have won a game is the one still in... 😂

It's pretty toxic over here too. Was at a briefing the other day for my lad's u15 league. They went through the usual stuff but the league has directed that each team has a sideline and "supporters" from one side cannot cross over to the other. Absolutely amazing and a sad reflection on society that parents have to be segregated from parents of the other team for underage games.

In other top level sports over here, crowds often mix. Football can't even do that for kids' games.

Shaming, we all want our kids to do well but more important is they enjoy themselves with their mates and learn some life lessons.
