See for me I think calling it corruption makes it easier for those in power to just downplay it and call it paranoia etc
What it is, is institutional bias where those in authority pander to the two clubs in Glasgow, it feels corrupt but calling it corruption lends to far more sinister connotations like bribery and match fixing for financial gain when this isn’t the case. Take Beaton for example, I don’t think he made the decision because he wanted Celtic to win the league, it’s because if he didn’t give it then the scrutiny given from the rabid Tims would have been even worse than what he experienced this week so he felt compelled because he couldn’t face the alternative.
