Rangers star Ryan Jack calls for Willie Collum to be demoted by SFA

The incident which has incensed Jack

Ryan Jack has called for Old Firm referee Willie Collum to be demoted by his SFA bosses.

The Rangers midfielder slammed the official for failing to spot that he’d been fouled by celtic’s Tom Rogic at the start of a counter attack which led to Olivier Ntcham's derby day winner.

Ibrox boss Steven Gerrard hit out at the whistler when he insisted Collum cost his side a draw.

But Jack, drafted into the Scotland squad on Sunday, called for Collum to be dropped to the lower leagues as punishment.

The 26-year-old said: “I think that’s what should happen. If you’re making mistakes time and time again why should you be refereeing top games?

“I felt Rogic took my leg away when I was in the air and when I came down I went over on my ankle. That one was costly for us.

“We’re the ones that lose three points, we have to live with that. I don’t know if anything gets done if a ref gets things wrong.”

Taig like behaviour, moaning about a 50/50 decision 70 yards from where the goal was scored and wanting referees punished. Gimp of a boy.

50/50 ??

[Tom0411 1,226]

Also denied us a goal scoring opportunity from what should have been a free kick on Barisic's side of the pitch.

[Marky. 6,927]

Sore one, but we can't go blaming referees.

See if we had done more to win the game, and gotten a bit unlucky, then perhaps you could say we weren't helped by the referee.

The way the game went, you can't go looking for excuses like that to bail out a pretty poor showing.

[AGM_72 3,643]

I think it was a foul but this is a bit ridiculous.

[BridgeIsBlue 66,606]

Oh dear, the muck won't like this one bit. 

That'll be him facing the firing squad now.

It’s not ridiculous it’s about time we started putting pressure on Referees like this. The players and manager just never had the balls to do it before.

[BridgeIsBlue 66,606]

Also, weren't we all wanting action taken against officials who continually make a rip roaring cunt of themselves every week not that long ago? 

Now that we've started to highlight their moronic mistakes more and more it's getting ridiculous? 

Flipflop Media strikes again.

I wouldn't say it was a glaring error, would you? Dermot Gallagher on sky sports suggested it was a foul against Jack. I don't agree with that, if anything I'd say our foul but it's not a horrendous refereeing  decision for me. We see plenty of them against us in Scottish football but that wasn't one and to blame it for our defeat is mega taig like behaviour. 

[Bydo 3,224]

Wasn’t a foul and it didn’t cost a goal.

Him rolling about like a wee lassie and then our inability to deal with a counter attack cost us that goal.

Dermot Gallagher says Steven Gerrard was wrong to feel incensed about celtic's Old Firm winner against Rangers.

Gallagher also feels Allan McGregor should have been sent off at Parkhead

Incident: Rangers appeal for a foul on Jack Ryan by Tom Rogic in the lead up to Olivier Ntcham's winner in the second half. Steven Gerrard was left incensed by the match officials after the game.

Dermot's verdict: "He may well have been calling a foul, but to give Tom Rogic the advantage. If you look, it looks as though Jack jumps into Rogic, I don't think Rogic does a lot wrong. I don't think it was a foul, and if it was a foul, I think it was against the Rangers player."

McGregor should see red
Incident: Allan McGregor kicks out at celtic's Kristoffer Ajer after punching away a cross, but referee Willie Collum sees nothing.

Dermot's verdict: "Everybody who has seen it knows it is wrong. He would have got sent off, and it would also have been a penalty. The ball was still live. 

The Ref watch on it on sky sports

Putting our game to one side.

He should be demoted because he is a horrendous referee.  

The red card he gave a week ago to the Kilmarnock player sums him up.

Just one of many poor decisions.

[Terry Hurlock Loyal 12,133]

It's quite simple, if the management want to call out referee incompetence - build up a dossier of referees and pay a vocal QC to press the SFA for "clarification". It's been done before, and it's lead to the mess of the SFA we have now. If you are not going to do that, then all this posturing about refs after poor results and performances is going to lead to absolutley nothing, so either do it or stop whinging every couple of weeks when things don't go our way. It's starting to get old already.

I don’t think it was a foul tbh.

Ref gives the foul goal doesn’t happen and we walk away with a point simple really mate. 

Cant blame the ref for what was a disappointing as fuck performance from us, especially the first half and we got what we deserved out the match but he did miss what to me is a blatant swipe on Ryan Jack and ultimately it cost us a goal. 

And fuck dermot Gallagher ffs

As we all know Gallagher is a scum fan who will always defend his scum team.

Sport scene had an angle that clearly showed it was mate, Rogics knee knocked jacks leg and cause him to roll his ankle. Deffo a foul.

[standup 829]

Its only a matter of time till a poor refereeing decision costs someone their life, this is fuckin serious, people could die,  and know this, Officials", their blood will be on your hands. Murderers the lot of you.

 

Hows that for pressure on the ref.

[ForeverAndEver 71,528]

Ryan, if anybody is going to be demoted it's your midfield partner.

Rogics left leg I think sort of hooks him on way down. But I only noticed that a few times after seeeing it. So it's not an obvious decision and certainly not one that we can blame losing the game on.

Nah but it’s enough for us to start putting pressure on officials, we should have been doing this ages ago.

too much 'dignified silence' for too long while the fenians appeal every decision, no harm in getting our point across in the media

yet it appears it was obvious to the assistant who called it as a foul, but heyho guess we should ignore that?

You might be right about putting pressure on officials.

In the context of the match, though, it feels a bit pathetic. We barely had the balls to stand up to their players so whinging about the referee feels a little ridiculous to me. I understand the manager doing it as there's only so much control he has once a game kicks off, but the players can or should have the ability to influence the game over 90 minutes. Regardless of whether that's a foul or not (again, I think it is) we could have prevented that goal.
