WILLIE COLUM loves a red card but the whistler got shy when it came to perhaps the key moment of the first half between Celtic and Aberdeen.

With the game posed at 1-1 and challenges flying everywhere, Ryan Christie was on the ball just outside the Aberdeen area when McGinn went in high AND late, studs first into the Celtic star.

From where we were sitting, there was only one way McGinn was heading and that was down the tunnel for an early bath.

However, Collum proceeded to only get his yellow card out leaving McGinn on the field.

Outrageous decision and here it is again.

Celtic took the lead early in the first half through Scott Sinclair but were pegged back when Izaguirre needlessly brought down McGinn in the penalty area.

Aberdeen should be reduced to ten men, but they still have a full team to call upon for the second half after the bizarre decision.
