Have always been of the opinion that laying the blame at a football match - or any other occasion - takes away responsibility from the perpetrator. If you're of the mind that lifting your hand to anyone is OK, you'll do it any day of the week.

I hear you. However, circumstances were that Rangers needed goals to win the league and, by the 92nd minute, had committed all out to attack. They were just picked off. Danger of assuming it’s reflective of current - and increasing - standard.
