RANGERRAB 3,259 Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Another appalling refereeing performance.Surprised little mention of it on here For starters we should have had a penalty when Kent got impeded in the box. Anywhere else on the pitch that’s a foul. Of course Hertz should have had a penalty too when Edmundson handled but from resultant corner Damour (already on a yellow)deliberately handles. A second yellow card which becomes a red card and a sending off. There were also various other baffling decisions but no one at Rangers seems to want to challenge the increasing number of decisions going against us 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacK1950 2,231 Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Is it really worth commenting on referees in Scotland they are so poor that if VAR were introduced we would have games lasting over two hours trying to sort out their failings and would soon have empty stadiums. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoohBear 1,074 Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 (edited) Look at what happened with Keating. I honestly think VAR wouldn't work in Scotland, the officials are that shit. Money would be better spent on making them full time and giving them better training. Edited March 1, 2020 by PoohBear 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think i read that the top refs down south are on around 50k salary plus 1k per game ,that's an actual career then. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill 13,717 Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Looking at the refereeing performance in Braga last week it was entirely obvious by comparison how poor refs are in Scotland - and transparent that neither VAR nor any amount of training can solve our problems. Every club in Scotland bar one suffers weekly from incompetent referees but we suffer from something far worse. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc 280 Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 European refs know the rules and apply them consistently. That's all that we want and why European games are a relative pleasure. The rules ought to be the same for everyone. But in Scotland when Rangers are playing each ref seems to have a different set of "house rules" that only operate in Rangers games and can be applied without fear of contradiction no matter how stupid. Deliberate handball suddenly not being bookable and handball not being handball if its a bit windy and it's not a Rangers player handling it, being perhaps the two most obvious examples so far this year. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nor free kicks 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

compo 6,141 Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 I dont think there has been a referee from Scotland at any big tournaments in recent times, you can see why. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
