kplfishtank 4,662 Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 is this the new breed of ref we are getting, i thought he was dreadful, gave fouls when it looked like fair tackles, played on when he should have given fouls, booked players for tackles but let off worse.i hope this isnt a fast tracked ref because if he is we are in for some poor games Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
King_gazza 1,065 Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Some of the tackles were pretty meaty to be fair. Especially the first 15-20 mins Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Govan Front Antz 15 Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 The ref was poor, big lafferty was lucky not to get sent off by the puppet in the black.Anyway let's just concentrate on the good result and a much improved performance Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
50ShadesofBlue 667 Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 I thought it handled it pretty well considering the rash tackles. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kplfishtank 4,662 Posted January 10, 2011 Author Share Posted January 10, 2011 Thought he was decent tbh in what way, did you think all the bookings were fairdid you not think mcculloch and hammill were more worthy of a card than davis or naismithdid you not think he gave far too many soft fouls, some of which an advantadge would have been better Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieD 19,069 Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Thought he was very good We had 2 or 3 potential straight reds, depending on how over-zealous the referee. In his case, he wasn't. Lafferty, Davis and Ness all made tackles that looked very dodgy from certain angles.Handled it well I thought. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
big dunk 0 Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 I agree the ref was shocking, thought some of his decisions were a little strange ,but if this is the new breed bring back Hugh Dallas Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ekrfc87 6 Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 I thought the ref done well. There were some challenges he had to blow for which did slow the pace but was probably our game plan Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dalton 1,192 Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 Have to agree big lafferty could easily have been sent off tonight the yellow he got compared to the one he didnt was laughable .The pitch had a major bearing all the rain there seem to be alot of mistimed challenges going on even big lee was out of sorts his tackles were tame just let the others get on with it ! The ref wasnt great but at least he managed to keep all the players on the pitch and must have taken the conditions into consideration.Had that been Howard webb or the premiership cronies they would have been red cards.

Irwin Sparkes 97 Posted January 10, 2011 Share Posted January 10, 2011 If that was an Old Firm game, the Tims would be absolutely apoplectic that Davis and Naismith didn't get straight redsI thought the ref was fine Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnson 27 Posted January 11, 2011 Share Posted January 11, 2011 I thought the ref actually had a good game.But I was watching on TV, it might have looked different at the game.Naismith's challenge was poor, but I thought Davis was unlucky.He was anticipating Eremenko playing the ball up the line, but when he dummied it, it looked like a poor challange.Davis is simply not that type of player. But when you slide in on a surface like tonight . . . As for Lafferty, he was a wee bit lucky to escape a yellow card for his first challenge.But he'd never have chased 30 yards and pulled the Killie player back if he was already on a yellow.The penalty was a definite. Crazy challenge.So, in summation . . . On a difficult surface, with a Rangers team committed to shutting down Killie, I think the ref did fine.Let's not base our judgments on his surname, eh?

I would say that that is a fair assessment of the Ref's performance, mate!Davis was a bit unlucky but apart from that, he could have gave Lafferty a card but chose to tell him to settle down a bit and he could have carded McCulloch, so I've no complaints in the general sense of the game.
