D ROBERTSON - Celtic v Hearts

I hardly watch Scottish football on tv, but given the stakes
attached to this one, I’ve been very impressed with Robertson
thus far.
He has hardly been noticed and you certainly don’t want a game
of this magnitude whistled to death by a fussy official, which
he hasn’t.
Some great advantages played and the two cards thus far
deserved.

Excellent performance so far I agree with TTFL. Now a correctly
awarded penalty, clear handball offence.
I’d have liked to have seen the Hearts manager binned for his
aggressive approach to the 4O and his sarcastic clapping.

He’s done very well so far. It’s a huge decision but nobody can
have any real complaints about the penalty - correct decision
IMO. Hopefully a similar controversy-free second half.

I rarely watch Scottish football, is it normal procedure for the
staff of a team to hold up the sub board instead of the 4th
official?

Quite a poor call by AR2, seemed clearly onside, perhaps
confused between the players. Correct VAR overturn. Robertson
has been superb, however, two KMI incidents went Celtic’s way,
they were 100% correct, but I’m not sure the rather ungracious
Hearts manager will see it that way.

Good performance by the referee today
You can understand why he will be upset with the var decisions
in the previous games, a penalty that wasnt that was given and
one that should have been given not, so its a bit harsh calling
the hearts manager.

What a shame those scenes are.
Pathetic. Embarrassing.

Twice Celtic fans have invaded the pitch before the full time
whistle has been blown in the space of a couple of days.
How is it fair that a pitch invasion has basically ended the
game in two Celtic games?
How can you stop it? How can you punish it?

That’s really cruel on Hearts and you can understand the
frustration McInnes must be feeling. Hearts were the best team
over the season and would probably be champions but for a
ridiculous call the other night. However Robertson was fantastic
today, howler by AR2 for the winning goal!
From a fans perspective (I have family ties to Hearts), would
have been nice if the game had been abandoned after that goal.
Terrible behaviour from the Celtic fans

Disgraceful scenes at the end with fans flooding the pitch…
Robertson had no choice but to end the match when Celtic got the
third goal.
Terrible flag from Roome on the far side, fortunately VAR was
there to correct the wrong.
Thought Robertson was excellent today.
