McCoist eviscerates ref in ‘scandalous’ Celtic vs Rangers call rant

Ally McCoist strongly criticized the refereeing standards in Scotland, directing his frustration towards Nick Walsh for what he deemed a “scandalous” decision during the Scottish Cup final between Celtic and Rangers. McCoist, known for his affiliation with Rangers, expressed his anger at the officiating at Hampden Park, labeling the officials’ incompetence as “ridiculous.” McCoist’s outburst against the refereeing came as he discussed Rangers’ loss to Celtic in the Scottish Cup final. During a conversation on Tuesday morning, McCoist responded to a text from a Celtic supporter who jokingly sent a message of commiseration to the pundit. Host Jeff Stelling then provoked McCoist’s passionate criticism, suggesting that the Rangers legend was dissatisfied with the performances of referee Walsh and VAR official John Beaton. McCoist heavily criticized the decision to disallow Abdallah Sima’s goal for a push on Joe Hart, describing the display of the officials as “embarrassing.” While acknowledging the legitimacy of the push, McCoist argued that a penalty should have been awarded for an earlier incident involving Greg Taylor holding Nicolas Raskin. In a direct assessment on talkSPORT, McCoist described the situation as “scandalous” and lamented the consistent incompetence of the officials, stating that such disappointing decisions have become the norm in Scottish football.
