    One of the most out of depth * referee’s I’ve ever seen. Handball aside cause they are now giving those every week, not seen our claimed one yet though.

    Their goalkeeper dropping the ball and picking in back up is an indirect free kick to us, anyone explain why he gave a free kick to them?

    And 1 minute added when it was at least 5mins, * laughably bad. It’s getting worse with each game.

    He'll say he gave it for a foul by Maeda, even though it wasn't a foul and he didn't blow..

    Just let their keeper drop it and pick it up. Lol..

    Another proper wee weasel. First half their player has a head knock in our half. They have the ball so he let's it go.....as soon as we get it back he blows to stop the game..

    Second he's in a terrible position and the ball hits him. Or rather he just decided no to move whatever or even open his leg's....then has the cheek to give us a drop ball miles back from where we were..

    You could honestly go on and on and on. Him blowing for a freekick against O'Riley when he won the ball cleanly and the likelihood of us scoring was high....was farcical and set the tone early on..

    Another game again as well where opposition players just drop under no challenge and get the freekick. Happened first half in their box..

    See this is the thing, we know there is bias, but there's also incompetence across the board, they are totally clueless and lack any sort of consistency in their decision making.

    I've gone from fuming at the refereing to feeling sorry for the * reffing our game. They look so clueless at times, it can't be a good feeling going out there not being up to the required standard.

    Time for the SFA to seriously step up their game because this is a horrible watch for fans, players and refs alike. It's time for full time professional refs in the Premiership.

    It’s not that hard to be consistent though now var is their and an actual rule book. should be now free from the interpretations bull * that hun pundits are hitting out with the reason behind the inconsistency is clear agenda on what happens to another team in the league

    Ultimately I think the wisest course of action would have been to take all that money we spent as a league on VAR and used it instead to headhunt a team of actual professional referees from England and/or Europe.

    Now that we've went and bought into VAR, we now need to put a bunch of checks and balances on it. Conversations between all the officials in-match need to go on record for a start

    I’m past the point feeling sorry tbh clearly only two refs get away at being incompetent and it’s collum or Clancy as half the time they get it right the other are constantly at it they bed the rules and situation to try influence the game that farce with their keep just one of the highlights

    Just shows how you can still cheat even when the technology is in place, they turn a blind eye when it suits, can only see things getting even worse tbh.

    Even if you remove the context of any possible bias, handball decisions like they've been awarding are just terrible for the game. I'd kind of get it if it was blocking a direct shot on goal, but ones like today on the edge of the box, arms down by his side are just ludicrous. It's incentivising opponents to play for handballs rather than, you know, actually trying to score goals and play football.

    You just know that when the season resumes there will be similar incidents that won't be punished, maybe if it wasn't a Celtic player the penalty would never have been given, this is where we can level the bias accusation against them, you only have to look at the number of bad decisions we have had in the last few weeks, it's ridiculous.

    The SFA should be forced to outsource the VAR reviews to another country. They beam the images back to the VAR headquarters in Scotland. How difficult would it be to stream it to a VAR headquarters in another country.

    I vote Republic of Ireland.

    This, it's actually more infuriating knowing that they are deliberately making these decisions knowing they are wrong. How the * do Ross County get a penalty for that today, yet we don't get one for an even more obvious handball actually IN the box AND for the two handed shove on Ralston. Absolutely crazy.

    It would be interesting to compare how many penalties we get per minute we have possession in the oppositions penalty box to how many we concede per minute the opposition are in our penalty box.

    I'd like some accountability from them, explinations as to why certain decisions are reached, problem for them is that we already know the answer.

    A blind man could see that was never a penalty today, close proximity and arm in a natural position, what exactly made it a penalty, if you look at the rules of the game there is no logical explination as to why it was given, other than the fact that the ref saw an opportunity to cheat and took it regardless of how bad it would look.
