Chris Jack: Is it time to reassess the role of the Compliance Officer in Scottish football? By Christopher Jack
 IT is eight years since the Scottish FA introduced the role of Compliance Officer as part of changes to its disciplinary procedures. Now, it may be time to get back to the drawing board. When Clare Whyte, the latest incumbent to hold the post following the tenures of Vincent Lunny and Tony McGlennan, is talked about as prominently as she has been at times this season then there is a problem with the system.
The CO position is a thankless task and no matter what decisions are reached on any case that is put forward, there will always be a party involved that are left angry and upset.
Accusations of bias and conspiracies can never be proven and remain the barb of choice of supporters online but real concerns and questions over the protocols can’t be overlooked. It is not just fans that are quickly losing faith with the SFA and those that implement its rulebook and there seems to be a growing feeling within the game that the current way of doing things isn’t fit for purpose.
It was Lunny that played down the talk of ‘trial by Sportscene’ four years ago now but events this season have done nothing to dispel fears over how incidents are raised and dealt with.
Matches that are live on television – like Rangers’ win over Aberdeen at Pittodrie was – automatically generate more public debate and there is greater scope for moments in those games to create headlines, and subsequently be raised as disciplinary matters.
Controversies in others – like celtic’s victory at home to Hibernian – don’t get the same attention, though, and challenges such as the one Scott Brown made on Mark Milligan go unnoticed because it remained on the cutting room floor. It is unfathomable how the Compliance Officer can take no further action against Jozo Simunovic for his appalling elbow on Oli Shaw but Darnell Johnson, whose tackle on Emilio Izaguirre was dealt with at the time as he received a yellow card, now faces a hearing in an attempt to avoid a two-game suspension.
Gers keeper Allan McGregor has the same battle to fight this week but there was no citing of Lewis Ferguson for his retaliation towards the 36-year-old later in the match. For the record, it is understandable why Bobby Madden sent Alfredo Morelos off and why the appeal was rejected. Likewise, it was no surprise that McGregor was cited. It is the process and the lack of clarity and consistency around it that is the issue, however. Just when players, punters and pundits think they have it sussed, a situation comes about that seemingly defies logic and goes against the precedents.
Now, another incident has been thrown into the mix from the weekend. At Rugby Park, Alan Power was booked for a high foot that caught Ryan Jack in the face. It was a nasty incident and one that could have been far more serious.
Steven Gerrard refused to be drawn too much on it post-match, but Rangers will keep an interested eye on the actions of the Compliance Officer in the coming days. Once that drama has subsided, another will almost certainly follow sooner rather than later and the cycle will start all over again. It is already becoming tedious.
Scottish football can’t get itself into the situation where matches are being re-refereed the morning after the night before. That isn’t good for the game. If a referee sees an incident, he deals with it and that is the end of it. If he misses it, these things happen and that’s life. No two moments are the same but it is the lack of consistency that will lead to the whataboutery. Once faith in the system is eroded, the SFA have a real problem.
There should still be a route for players to go down if they feel they have been harshly dealt with and an appeal avenue has to stay in place for red card decisions. But the status quo of some issues being highlighted more than others and some being dealt with differently is causing more problems than it is solving. There seems little consistency in the way that cases are brought and handled. A panel at Hampden shouldn’t have more power than the man in the middle. The referee’s word used to be final, so let’s make that the case once again.

It’s the hatred. I agree it’s in every walk of life but it manifests starkly in the football
They believe, or at least do their best to pretend they believe, that the game is rigged in our favour. 
Outside of us two. The rest of Scotland say the game is rigged in the old firms favour but mostly big bad Rangers. 
Sporting rivalry is one thing and indeed is an attraction, what would be the point of sport without rivalry after all. But there has to be mutual respect. There is not only a complete lack of respect in our game but it’s actually out and out hatred. 
We hate celtic Aberdeen Hibs and Dundee united. They all hate us even more. We dislike most teams. They all hate Rangers. 
Rangers, through years of careful and sustained propaganda, has become a by-word for bigotry and sectarianism. If you are a Rangers fan you are, in every other football fans eyes, a knuckle dragging, bigoted troglodyte stuck in a different century. That’s the narrative. That’s the propaganda and it has seeped into cultural consciousness. 
We try to build bridges... we get taking for a ride. We try to fight our corner ....we get ostracised further and accused of elitism. Rangers bad no matter what we do. 
Maybe I see a different perspective from afar and it’s not as bad as it seems but it looks awful from here.

I get with your sentiments mate, but we don't walk away. We fight back.
TBH when a sport is rigged to favour one, there is little point in participating as it is not a level playing field and you are conning the punters out of their hard earned cash. The game in this backwater is now in reality a fraud.
Their sphere of influence now spread far and wide in Scottish society from politics, to the judiciary, to the footballing authorities and whilst they cheat our club in their agenda to lord it over us, they cheat the whole of the game. They corrupt and taint everything they touch. It is what they are born to.
It has gotten that bad. They are a cancer of society as a whole and in the game specifically. i said in another thread that the whole system needs cleansed, dismantled and rebuilt to be worthy of the game it represents. Dishonesty and corruption is now very transparently the way of the world and we stand back and allow it, whilst the taigs exploit it to the full. They have no conscience, no shame. Their dominance over us is what matters, no matter how they achieve it. 
The evidence of bias is blatant and imo, now up to the Club to address this very publicly and in no uncertain terms. Gerrard comes with no baggage and has readily witnessed it and he could be that catalyst for change. 
I think many miss the first principle in all this, in that foorball is sport first and foremost, that supporters pay out their hard earned for. When there is institutional cheating, it becomes a fraud and neither worthy of participatiing in, nor paying out your hard earned for.
I'll go back to when WE made our first mistake in all this and that was when we accepted getting unceremoniously punted to the bottom division. Our stand should have been made then, because the authorities would have backed off. Green was terrified of not making his money and the support in the possibility of no football. We showed our weakness then and we have been sullied ever since. We allowed ourselves to participate in their fraud.
It's not hard to join up all the dots and our club and our support either make a stand now, or the game is fucked. Only in Scotland, the world's newest banana republic.
 
 

Mate. It’s fuckin soul destroying.
Football was never about this. It’s not meant to be about endurance and suffering. And I don’t mean supporting Rangers, I mean Scottish football.
My club will always be my club but the whole game is fucked. The lower leagues were better than this pish. It’s not about the so called “banter years” between 2012 and today it’s about the hatred in the game
I am in Oman, my boy has a Rangers top and knows his favourite players (Tav, Halliday and Morelos) he sees me watching every game, although he only watches the early kick offs himself. He only knows the football
But the hatred in the game is all pervasive. He asks why our players are getting sent off. He asks why do I think celtic are the bad guys. He asks about referees and commentators and supporters songs. 
Our game is toxic and no amount of “no surrender” is going to change that. Unless there is a gutting of the footballing authorities and a massive resetting of how it’s run, for the benefit of all clubs then I don’t see how any father is going to keep their kids interested.
The media is so anti-Rangers, that I know folk that mock Rangers even though they don’t know anything about Scottish football. 
At the end of the day its supposed to be a sport. A game. Fun. Enjoyment. It’s not supposed to be a battle. A propaganda war. I shouldn’t need to have “spirit” to follow my club. I shouldn’t need to take political positions because politicians are victimising my club. Members of parliament shouldn’t be acting in favour of their teams. National broadcasters shouldn’t be demonising our players and our fans. 
I will always love Rangers. Doesn’t mean I can’t despise Scottish football and frankly why would I want that for my son

You know we can be as facetious and flippant as we like about this but I’ll admit to getting scunnered with it all. 
At 42 years of age and living overseas I am just about ready to chuck it. The games fucked. It’s actually embarrassing. What must Gerrard be thinking about this tinpot backwater pish. 
A Compliance Officer with certain allegiances that takes her directions from watching the BBC coverage. Shock jock pricks like Sutton and Stewart who just spout controversial pish to get a reaction. No responsibility for the hatred and anger that they stir up. The list is endless of the lack of parity and one sided treatment
The treatment Alfredo is getting is fucking brutal and while we can argue it’s because of his race or nationality, it’s simply because he is a Rangers player, if he was wearing the hoops it would be a completely different narrative. He’d be a 30 million pound player by now, I dare someone to tell me that’s not true? 
It’s been going on for over a decade now and it’s not even subtle. The SFA and SPFL need fucking gutted and the whole lot thrown out and start again with complete transparency on the independence of the games administrators.
The BBC Pacific quay needs carpeted and neutrality restored. Ditch the click bait era controversy and bring back fair factual reporting 
The whole country has been completely fucking poisoned by fenian wankers and their agenda. 
I recall when Rangers fans demanded that “we deserve better” from our board, well now it’s we deserve better from the authorities.

I recall when Rangers fans demanded that “we deserve better” from our board, well now it’s we deserve better from the authorities. 

You know we can be as facetious and flippant as we like about this but I’ll admit to getting scunnered with it all. 
At 42 years of age and living overseas I am just about ready to chuck it. The games fucked. It’s actually embarrassing. What must Gerrard be thinking about this tinpot backwater pish. 
A Compliance Officer with certain allegiances that takes her directions from watching the BBC coverage. Shock jock pricks like Sutton and Stewart who just spout controversial pish to get a reaction. No responsibility for the hatred and anger that they stir up. The list is endless of the lack of parity and one sided treatment
The treatment Alfredo is getting is fucking brutal and while we can argue it’s because of his race or nationality, it’s simply because he is a Rangers player, if he was wearing the hoops it would be a completely different narrative. He’d be a 30 million pound player by now, I dare someone to tell me that’s not true? 
It’s been going on for over a decade now and it’s not even subtle. The SFA and SPFL need fucking gutted and the whole lot thrown out and start again with complete transparency on the independence of the games administrators.

Where does he say he is unlikely to stay? 
He says he is Liverpool’s player. Which he is.
