Diadora Van Basten Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Thought he was very lenient to Dundee and very strict on us. In particular his unwillingness to book Dundee players after he played advantage was annoying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdl2002 Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Think he let Woodburn off the hook with a yellow after using an elbow. But yes i agree i can think of twice where scumdee players escaped after the ref had played advantage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hmfc1965 Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 I thought he let the game flow better than most, although we had a couple of cheap bookings in the first half. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should have had a foul in that incident. Blatant push right infront of the arsehole assistant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikey1874 Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 It's hard to keep up. Other players even accidentally kicking an opponent in the head have been sent off. Seems keepers diving on ground are fair game. Very young I learnt about a goalkeeper that was sadly killed when that happened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s what I thought if it was accidental it should have been a yellow and if it was deliberate it should have been a red. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tommy Brown Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 We are not going to blame the ref, surely? Yes, Smith was fouled first, was he giving it, who knows bar the ref. But Ben's elbow could have been red and as he had not blown for a free kick had to deal with first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ex member of the SaS Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Can anyone explain how Adam stayed on the park? The guy is past it and kicks players instead of the ball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People get chubbies for his “wand of a left foot” every time he passed the ball a guy behind kept pointing out to his son how amazing it was. Never once commented on better crossfield balls Soapy played. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DS98 Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Beni probably had one of his poorer games by his high standards but Adam could hardly get within 5 yards of him. Whenever he did he just kicked him. Quite how the ref never acted on this is beyond me. Can’t believe that fat **** and his team escaped with a point.

Pasquale for King Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Extremely poor ref and main stand linesman, not the reason we didn’t win but didn’t help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were no cops in the one area that was likely to be a flash point, just stewards. It was only when Dundee scored and their fans breached the sterile area, that a few Cops moved into the area. From my seat directly opposite in the Gorgie, I didn't see anyone getting lifted. Unfortunately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gashauskis9 Posted October 23, 2021 Share Posted October 23, 2021 Used to work in the same office as him and he always came across as a conceited, attention seeking bellend. Makes total sense that’s he’s now a top grade ref, fits the bill. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheridan kicked Craig Gordon in the head and nothing was done. Actually I'd say Sheridan changed the game for Dundee causing disruption all over. Maybe if he hadn't been kicked in the head Craig Gordon would have caught the throw in. Re Woodburn as the pundits on Sportscene said you need to look at other angles. And a Dundee player elbowed a Hearts player in the face and was booked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
