Not a referee bashing thread, more SFA...

Watching the Arsenal Chelsea game, little incident at the goal where a penalty could easily be given for the challenge but ref played sensible advantage and goal was scored, Gray in the studio wondering whether ref wouldve given penalty if Song had missed, they then get word from the ref that had Song missed a penalty wouldve been given...

Again shows how easy it is for referees to come out in England and tell it how it is, explain there decisions etc, where up here our ref's get to hide from there decisions by the SFA not allowing them to discuss this during/after the match

If this was introduced in Scotland the standard reason from the refs for dodgy decisions would be "I'm fi Larkhall, awright"
