Another west coaster promoted way above his ability because he comes from the right place and rubs shoulders with the right people.

He's guaranteed a cup final in the next couple of years. Meanwhile talented refs from Edinburgh, Dundee, Aberdeen etc will continue to ref 4th to 7th tier football for daring to be from the wrong place.

Forgetting the penalties for a second, what about him stopping play first a free kick towards the end when Obita had the ball and was driving forward?

Also, why did he blow for full time before we had the chance to take our free kick at the end of the game. They’re meant to let the attack play out.

I only caught the last few mins of the game so I can’t comment on the other decisions at this point, but the free kick at the end of the game was a strange time to stop it. That being said, it was never a foul to us in a million years.

That to me looked like blatant cheating. He didn't blow for the foul on Bowie, but when he saw the ball broke to Obita who was charging up.the pitch in the clear, he blew for a foul.

I don't think he is a cheat, but he is utterly hopeless - and as someone else mentioned, is only in situ because of the association he is affiliated to.

I’ve no doubt some refs are actual cheats, the majority are just utter pish.

I’m sure Mike Tumility was one of the refs who jacked it in because of the location bias.

You are old enough to remember refs coming from all over Scotland and it saying where they were from and guys like the Valentine brothers who I’m sure weren’t allowed to referee games involving the Dundee sides.

He said to Gray afterwards that he had to follow the letter of the law on the handball rule and give a penalty and yet White came in the back of a Hibs player and caught him which I think should have been a yellow.

He also blew for a free kick to us when Obita had the ball and we had a chance to break… there’s absolutely no consistency applied by the officials .. to describe them as amateur is to good for the lot of them .

I think first penalty is a penalty. You’d be screaming for that. He missed it.

White was definitely a yellow basically just an early kick on Triantis. You could see him giving the benefit of the doubt because it was so early which isn’t really following the letter of the law

VAR does give penalties because, as soon as VAR tells the referee there's a potential penalty to review, the pressure is on the referee to agree with what VAR has asked him to look at. It's very rare for the referee to disagree when VAR intervenes.

VAR will have confirmed ball touched hand and the ref then had to go and interpret if it’s a penalty. That’s what “we” want isn’t it? The ref to be the decision maker.

Genuine question but what’s the difference between the one against us and the one Rangers were denied yesterday?

Identical situations from what I can tell? Both clearly accidental, neither impacted the game (I think this is a rule for jostling in the box, not sure about hand ball), both bounced off the ground into a hand not tucked in, both had time to react in that it wasn’t bothered against their hand from close range and neither had a hand movement towards the ball.

We can’t even use the ‘Penalty Rangers’ argument as the decision went against them!

I don’t think penalties like that should be penalties but I don’t know what the current rules state. I also think if VAR are stepping in for our one, they should have stepped in for the Dundee Utd one.

For your last point, I think it depends if the referee sees the handball and communicates to VAR that he doesn’t think it’s a penalty, in which case they’d take his decision unless what he’s described doesn’t match the picture.

I don’t think Dickinson saw Cadden’s handball at all or Saturday which is why he was sent to see it. I think if he had seen it and told VAR he was happy it wasn’t a penalty then that’s the end of the matter.

I haven’t seen the Rangers one to answer the rest of your post, but that’s what I think will be the difference between the two as far as VAR’s input goes. The VAR review on YouTube had good examples of similar types of decision where the communication from the ref tells VAR what he’s seen and if VAR see the same they won’t (shouldn’t) question him.

Extract from the rule book below - still got absolutely no idea how a penalty was awarded against Cadden:

‘Handling the ball

For the purposes of determining handball offences, the upper boundary of the arm is in line with the bottom of the armpit. Not every touch of a player’s hand/arm with the ball is an offence.

It is an offence if a player:

-deliberately touches the ball with their hand/arm, for example moving the hand/arm towards the ball
-touches the ball with their hand/arm when it has made their body unnaturally bigger. A player is considered to have made their body unnaturally bigger when the position of their hand/arm is not a consequence of, or justifiable by, the player’s body movement for that specific situation. By having their hand/arm in such a position, the player takes a risk of their hand/arm being hit by the ball and being penalised
-scores in the opponents’ goal:
directly from their hand/arm, even if accidental, including by the goalkeeper
immediately after the ball has touched their hand/arm, even if accidental’

A farcical decision (as was the 2nd penalty) and the club should really be calling these out publicly.

It's the consistency argument for me.

One week you have the penalty given against Cadden (correctly I thought) and then the next you have the one up at Aberdeen last season, where a ball has travelled 30 yards, the centre half sticks his arm clean out to handle it, and both the ref and VAR officials tell us there's nothing wrong with that.

There's no excuse for that level of inconsistency.

Yep, doesn’t meet any of that criteria. The unnatural position is clearly there to stop players stretching their arms out then clearing it wasn’t deliberate when it is smacked against it. It is not for the ball hitting an arm by accident when it is already on its way out the pitch when the player has his arms in a normal position when on the turn.

The Rangers one Gallacher didn't know where the ball was. Cadden one argument would be Cadden did and his hand was outstretched from his body however I think it was harsh as Brown deflected the ball just in front of him. Both soft imo

That’s 2 goals in a few days for us that looked in real time to be offside (miles offside in Hoilett’s case) but upon closer examination were perfectly timed runs and good goals.

VAR checking these goals and allowing them to be given is a big lump of food for thought when it comes to the “should we be using VAR” debate as in real time I think they’re near impossible decisions for a linesman to get correct.
