Stephen Glass is adamant the biggest refereeing injustice from the Rangers game was the penalty Aberdeen didn’t get.
The unhappy champions have held a meeting with representatives from the Scottish Football Association, listing a string of poor decisions from Tuesday night’s 1-1 draw at Pittodrie, aimed at referee Kevin Clancy and his fellow officials.
Glass refused to be drawn into that but is adamant that the biggest game-changing decision of the night went for Rangers when Allan McGregor fouled Ryan Hedges inside the box and no penalty was given, with the match still at 0-0.
Glass, when asked if Aberdeen had made complaints of their own, answered: “No, despite and I’m sure everybody watching the game would say the biggest incident in the game would have taken care of all the other ones afterwards.
“The biggest incident in the game was missed. But we’ve not [raised the issue]. The penalty incident is the big incident in the game.
"There’s no doubt that would have impacted the game.
“A penalty kick, a potential red card because he doesn’t make an attempt to play the ball.
“You either sit and complain or you prepare for what’s next.
“I don’t want to get involved in it at all.”
Glass believes there was no point in Aberdeen making their own official complaint to the SFA. Aberdeen had similar penalty grievances after their last visit to Ibrox, where Rangers battled back for a point.
Glass, however, has made it clear that he wants to look forward and not back and that starts with Saturday's home Scottish Cup clash with Edinburgh City.
He insisted: “No, what do you achieve? Everybody’s seen the game, seen the incident.
“I don’t know if the referee would accept they’ve missed it or if they think they were right. What do you achieve? Nothing. Everybody’s seen what happened.
“It’s not something I should be getting involved in.
“We took care of the game the other night and we’ve a Scottish Cup to prepare properly for. We don’t want any distractions.”
It is alleged that Rangers claimed that Aberdeen Scott Brown had used simulation to get Ryan Kent his second yellow card.
Glass refused to get embroiled in a war of words.
He stated: “I don’t want to get involved in it at all.
“If you start complaining, then I think you’ve got to be careful what you’re complaining about.”
