I fuking hate agreeing with anything that favours the filth, but that's definitely a foul on Cod chops..
Why the the hell Robertson's taken so long is rather strange though.
I have to agree with this, it was a foul.
However, it definitely is a strange one. The more I watch the whole thing, it stinks. Robertson doesn’t give the foul. He doesn’t even kind of give the foul.
The foul was
against the defending team (Celtic), in their own box. He then allows play to go on for a further 5 seconds, paying zero attention to Johnston.
He allows the attacking team (Aberdeen) to have a crack at goal, chase the rebound and only when they are fouled in the penalty box, does he decide to give a foul to the defending team.
Advantage is ordinarily given, if a team who have
been fouled still have the ball in an attacking position, rather than pulling the play back to give them a free kick.
On what planet does a referee give advantage to a team who have
committed a foul (Aberdeen) and go as far as to let them have a crack at goal and thereafter be fouled inside the box?
He was never giving a foul against Johnston until he realised there was cause to give Aberdeen a penalty.
