Honest Mistakes Thread 2016/17 onwards.

What * hope does the league have when that moron Davidson is coming out with this *;

Overall I think VAR has been a success, it has been good so far - but the weekend was one I just didn’t understand.

* slave talk.

Watched his side get * over with 2 red card shouts, completely reversed to give a side an unfair advantage against his own. And THATS the limit of his indignation.

This is the crux of the matter.

We're alone in this. As long as the pundits cry "hysterical paranoia" and the other clubs turn the other cheek, NOTHING us changing.

Nothing has changed since the days of Cadettes papers, "good goal Nacho", Dougie gate, ref strikes... It's just the same corruption in a different * wrapper.

We need to drag every team in Scotland with us, light a fire under the whole * thing and tell them to choose a hill to stand on, or a * grave to die in.

 

Watching that just highlights what's wrong with Scotland

 

Seen a couple of different angles for the handball last night. That * Robertson was looking straight at it and he wasn't going to give the penalty until VAR intervention. Exactly what were up against.

 

He's right up there as one of the worst for no giving out justified reds to our opponents..

Pretty sure it was him at Tannadice last season when Turnbull or someone got done quite bad. Porteous on McGregor gashes right below the knee. KT by Bowman horrendous gashes on the knee..

Proper * the guy..

 

Same ref that refused to take any action against that Sands for the huns when he pulled down the Ross County striker when through on goal at Ibrox.

 

Mate he's had loads. Flies under the radar..

He was the * who gave County a late penalty up at Dingwall when Schalk took one of the worst dives you'll see..

A rat * who id say is the worst in the country for failing to protect our players..

Others are worse in other ways..

 

Let a terrible challenge on Ideguchi go aswell against Alloa. Still * me off that one.

 

So so many..

He's a wrongun..

 

That KT/Bowman one. That was the worst one out of a * of a lot, Calmac/Porteous I never realised how bad it was, cos Calmac is sneakily hard as *.

That Bowman one though,I can remember saying to you at the team KT would be better leaving Scottish Football before it takes too much a toll on him.

Sadly, by the time he did, he had a manager that he was playing under in Rodgers that pushed him beyond what he should have and he’d been playing against * like that.


And it has took it’s toll on him. Watching him against City the other night, I felt sick because it’s obvious at 25, the strain we put him under and the lack of protection for him up here, he’s not what he should be at that age. People * bout him leaving, for me it was probably too late for him to protect his career,

Clarks red overturned. Another honest mistake to help out the team in blue.

 

Aye I remember mate. It's a joke that we even have to talk about players leaving for their own safety..

That Bowman challenge was one of a long catalogue of late ones on KT. He was singled out most weeks. Also had his jaw broke as well that went unpunished in the final..

McGregor has been subjected to loads now as he's seen as our main man. You only have to look at Halliday first game last season and then Porteous at Easter Road. Again, both stayed on the park..

Lol..

That's him available to face us now..

So the penalty was never a penalty, pretty much everyone agrees on that, it bounced up off a back and hit the boys hand from a yard away..

The Clark tackle wasn't a red. I've watched it and he was pushed in the back, made a clumsy tackle and didn't connect whatsoever with his studs. Collum didn't check the monitor but after a minute and word in his ear, out it came..

Then Jack makes the worst one of the day and Collum immediately gets the yellow out.....Walsh calls him over as it's worse than that but he bucks the trend and stays with his original, terrible decision..

All in favour of one mob again..

Can't see it anytime soon but can you imagine if they get one decision against them soon late on or that costs them the game. Something like the O'Riley or Bernabei handballs. They'll take to the streets..

 

It came up on the big screen decision red card serious foul play.

VAR rules say the referee should be called over if they think he has got a clear and obvious decision wrong. VAR had no authority to instruct a red card.

There are trying to say the red card was Collum's decision. It clearly wasn't his decision. An explanation is required on this matter.

 

Aye it was never his decision..

Card happy Collum waited about a minute and with word in his ear. If he was giving the red his self then he would've done it much quicker. History tells us that..

 

I don't get why they can't make it like rugby where we can hear the conversation between the ref and the var it would make it so much better instantly

 

Because they don't want that level of transparency or accountability.

 

VAR actually worked as intended during our game v DU. Both decisions that were overturned, the decision was made by the on-field referee after being asked to take another look on the monitor. The decisions weren’t made by the VAR official.

It surprised the * out of me that they got the process right. Surprise surprise they didn’t get the process right when it came to the other mob.

 

VAR worked for Jack's tackle in the same game. For some unknown reason Collum didn't red card Jack.

Why did the VAR send off Clark then ask for a review on worse tackle?

I think someone has highlighted VAR broke the rules giving the first decision. Rather than coming out and admitting the rules were broken they are pretending it was Collum's decision.

 

I've been watching it for a few games now, it doesn't even look like the refs are refereeing the games any more.

The decisions look like they're coming from the VAR room with the refs given orders from upstairs rather than officiating themselves. It's a poor poor situation with the SFA nowhere to be seen, no addressing the fans, no explanations of why the shear number of mistakes are still happening.

Then the latest 'blunder' of a ref sending a player off after both discussing it with VAR and checking the monitor. Cards shouldn't be getting receeded, that's why VAR is there to stop these 'mistakes' happening.

It's just proof to the rest of the league that the dice are loaded and its not going to change any time soon. The SFA seem to think VAR is a flawless system and it's working perfectly.

 

They're trialling this at the Club World Cup with a view to bringing it into all VAR games in the future.
