A lot of fans will be going Into the game with their back up and the first 50/50 that goes against us a lot of people will be on his case which may make things worse. Hopefully we get a decent consistent performance I think that this is the issue. Most people just want (and would accept) consistency from Referee's who apply the rules and common sense in equal measure, regardless of the teams involved. Saturday was so far removed from this, that it is actually difficult to come to the conclusion that incompetency was the reason for his decision making. Surely, if he is actually so poor at his job, he would be removed permanently, not just pushed down to the Championship for a week only to be reinstated thereafter? I have been converted to the belief that he consciously made decisions to impact our ability to win the game. I'll let others decide what this is called.

VladimirWeiss69 802 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Collum is probably a better ref than Beaton but that ain't saying much, you couldn't get much worse tbf! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
loyalfollower 1,543 Posted August 16, 2017 Share Posted August 16, 2017 Beaton, madden and Clancy are abysmal refs, Craig Thomson and willie Collum are average at best however and I might be totally wrong but us and them have the most fans in Scotland and the likely hood of a ref being fans of either club is very high add to that how poor they all are then I'd only employ refs out with Scotland on a full time basis Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barring a dominant start which, we were woeful. We didn't deserve anything from that match. After scoring early on, we should have been out-of-sight, but they absorbed what we threw at them and we quickly ran-out of ideas, resulting in their equaliser. The goals we conceded were a disgrace. They were fucking amateur. Our defending was worse than the referees performance. Self flagellation, ok Opus Dei member. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
