Rangers under attack on crazy Hotline as Celtic fanatics cry hallelujah after penalty conspiracy goes mainstream

BBC Scotland broadcaster and journalist Richard Gordon has put the cat amongst the pigeons with a column which hints at a conspiracy theory behind the lack of penalties awarded against Rangers.

It doesn't take much for the Hotline cynics to get on board when foul play is suspected as the Light Blues record comes under scrutiny again. While Record Sport columnist Ryan Stevenson is questioned for expressing his confidence that Hearts could do a number over the Ibrox club on Wednesday night.

Henry Moffat, Stirling, said: "It's good to see neutral pundit Gordon now joining fans outside Celtic on the Hotline in drawing attention to the shocking stats of no league penalties being awarded against Rangers in almost two years. The bias being shown to one club by VAR is attracting huge attention and cannot be swept under the carpet any longer. "

Billy Barry, Dundee, said: "At long, long, last, one of the most respected and experienced Scottish sports journalists and broadcasters, Gordon, has broken cover and openly questioned the "incomprehensible statistic" of Rangers' staggering run of 68, (now 69), Premiership league matches without any Scottish top-flight referee, or assistant referee, deeming any kind of challenge by any Rangers player in their own box as illegal or unfair. It's about time too! The last time they had a penalty awarded against them in the league was on January 18th 2022."

John Rush, London, said: "I am shocked it has taken Gordon to state the bleeding obvious when he insists that there must be some level of subconscious bias why Rangers have not conceded a penalty for almost two years.. Subconscious is nothing, even knocked unconscious you won't get a penalty against the Rangers."
