Norris Cole 0 Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Iain Brines. :ffs::ffs: Yes, that's right, the man who cannot referee 90 minutes involving Rangers or Celtic without indulging in an "honest mistake" or two. The man who single-handedly put green and grey ribbons on the SPL trophy in 2008 with a string of the most blatant displays of cheating I have ever seen in football. The man who famously disallowed Zander Diamond's last minute equaliser at Parkhead for no reason with no subsequent explanation, without doubt the turning point of the season. The man who, after a Falkirk v Celtic match during that tainted season, Bairns player Michael Higdon said "The ref must be a Celtic fan. I could have knocked him out to be honest". Be on your guard rangers. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norris Cole 0 Posted September 22, 2009 Author Share Posted September 22, 2009 Who are the decent ref's in the SPL? the ones not biased against Rangers? Eddie Smith, Iain Brines, Steve Conroy, Charlie Richmond and Tom Murphy are all bent as a �£7 note. The rest are just shite. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazza_8 233 Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 Are any of the Scottish refs used by UEFA for CL games or FIFA for World Cups? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norris Cole 0 Posted September 22, 2009 Author Share Posted September 22, 2009 Are any of the Scottish refs used by UEFA for CL games or FIFA for World Cups? Unbelievably yes. I find it incredible in this day and age that the world's premier club football competition has part-time referees. We all saw the consequences in the Chelsea v Barca game last season. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
br1ndy 0 Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 The bottom line is it shouldn't be down to the refs if we win our games our not. Our first half performances have to improve. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you, you're right, but it's not really the point here. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa 0 Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 All we can do is keep our fingers crossed that Brines has a better game than Conroy's shocker at Rugby Park. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluedell 5,356 Posted September 22, 2009 Share Posted September 22, 2009 The bottom line is it shouldn't be down to the refs if we win our games our not. Disagree. I don't see why we should have to score 3 goals to ensure that ref decisions don't play a part. Going back to the 2007/8 season, refereeing decision played a huge part in that season. It makes the difference between drawing with Celtic and losing to them and which ultimately cost us the title. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
