Apparently the Jambos are going to vigorously defend their player over the penalty we got last week.
Here's the thing folks: You can look at that incident from the left or from the right. You can look at it from the front or from behind. You can look at it from the top and you can look at it from the bottom. and there is still NO evidence to support the claim that he was touched or even breathed on by KT.
They chastise Broony for calling Walker a cheat when it is they who are trying to cheat their way out of an embarrassing situation.
If it was Sevco doing it I could well understand but I thought the Jambos had a wee bit more about them.

Scott brown was booked in a game 2015 for diving think it was Ross county, it's boring all the hype about it, it's a part of the game unfortunately. Everyone is a cheat nowadays. It's a tad embarrassing we make such a fuss about it, when guidetti n others have blatantly took a dive n won us points no one cared so much then.

I'm with you on this, but at the time there was a niggling doubt that there was a very slight change in trajectory of the players foot. Look at what the manager says- ' he felt a contact AND WENT DOWN'.

To me this sums up the incident and Nielson's naivety. Just because you feel it doesn't mean it's there- and he dove on the understanding it could be thus interpreted. I think they've jammed themselves with the language. Besides, contact is allowed in this game, last I checked.

Did sick note get a ban for it last season or before after video evidence? So why should it not be different for any of the clubs? I mean, it may seem petty, but we can't have one rule for your club and one rule for the rest of the clubs! I think that that is issue here! Why should a Celtic player be banned and other club's players not!
This is what is wrong with the SFA! And as an outsider it totally sucks!

What makes the Jamie walker incident worse is the fact that there is clear video evidence which 100% clearly shows there was no contact whatsoever yet walker says there was, clearly made a fool of himself and neilson and hearts as a club defending his actions doesn't show them in good light either. If walker had been slightly touched no one could argue with the penalty being given. If walker hadn't have claimed to be touched, and the ref gave the penalty he could have turned up at the hearing and said" look I anticipated contact, tried to avoid it and in doing so went down, the ref makes a decision and gave a penalty" not saying it would've been correct but that would've been better than coming up with a blatant lie.

It is daft that there trying to defend it, it's a blatant dive. I'm just sayin for some of us to get annoyed by it, we had guidetti take a total dive, n win us a pen. No punishment for him. So sfa are inconsistent, as we got away with it. There's none of this crap about "walkers a cheat" it should never have been said, so when one of our boys does the same we will be open for criticism, SB should no better as Captain. It's double standards.

Got to say guys, i'm confused. Football is a contact sport.
At corners jostling and holding of shirts etc occurs and is largely allowed. If this happened anywhere else on the pitch its a free kick, yet not in the penalty box. An attempt to defend in the box which results in a touch or intent to touch and the player goes down will probably result in a penalty, yet the above is ignored or allowed. Are there degrees of fouls allowed in the penalty box or exceptions? Stoke and Juventus at corners are brutal yet seem to get away with it. Wee walker thought Tierney would eventually make some contact and dived expecting it and Beaton awards a penalty. Yet all the pulling at corners is allowed?

Brown said what he said straight after the game which in hindsight may not have been the best time to comment on it, however after yesterday's hearing Browns comments have been vindicated as it turns out that walker is indeed a cheat. Like I said if there was the slightest contact fair enough, he goes down and the refs got a decision. As it turned out he went down under no contact but more importantly for me in this case he claimed there was contact which has since been proved 100% not to be true. As for the guidetti incident or in fact any other incident like it in the past does not make it acceptable and any player blatantly caught as was walker, they should be punished no matter the team. I also find it astonishing that a former professional who I shall not name publicly thinks that this sort of incident is perfectly OK in the game, what kind of message does that send out to youngsters watching it and coming through.
