Celtic are considering expressing concerns about refereeing standards to the Scottish Football Association ahead of Sunday's Old Firm derby.

I'm sure they aren't trying to put pressure on the referree ahead on Sundays game at all. Funnily enough I don't recall them huffing and puffing when decisions go their way.

I know the 'big' teams get more decisions for them, these things happen, but to suggest there is some form of 'establishment' conspiracy against them is laughable.

Does anybody know how you go about buying shares in abortion clinics in the Stamford Bridge area?

I think it's great that the club are helping to bond with the fans. There's no love stronger than that built on shared paranoia.

C'mon the hoops.

Decisions against Celtic - Masonic conspiracy
Decisions for Celtic - These things even themselves up over the course of a season.

Some of the phone-ins this seasons, especially in the last few weeks, have been hilarious. Callers claiming the media, referees, SFA, SPL, tea ladies and even the ball boys are all in some grand scheme to steal the league.

I personally would have thought Monkeyheid selling half his team, wasting huge amounts of money on a loan deal and making baffling tactical choices (We are 4-2 up, what we really need to do is take off a defender and put on another striker

) would be more of a reason that Rangers are sitting 7 points + a game in hand clear.

But how would looking inward help to feed our paranoia?

I don't recall the substitution of any defender although if he had substituted a certain left back it might have prevented giving away a penalty. The only other defender I recall leaving the field was O'Dea and that was because of the red card.

I also don't recall the referee with any significance in that game so assume he had a good game.

I think we've found the perfect reason for England's failure to get past the semi-finals this year in the WC:

No options at left back? A good enough reason as any.

There are plenty of options at left back that are better than Bridge though.

Doesn't matter to Russ, any old excuse for a dig at England, soooo boring now

Don't forget my "any old excuse for a dig at West Ham" as well

It's a valid point, Cole won't be there, neither will Bridge. If Terry doesn't perform at 110% the blame will be placed on the defence.

You don't need to be from a country that didn't qualify in order to see that
