    Refs for next 3 games

    Have to be honest and say my heart sank when I read that

    Iain Brines (again) for Der Hun on Sunday

    and

    CHARLIE RICHMOND versus the Yams on the 3rd.

    I can't believe I'm typing this but Charlie did alright in the game we had him in before, but Brines!! Brines doesn't get to ref many SPL games - on account of his ******ness - but guess what the GFA give him the biggest game of the season....

    [We've got someone called Brian Winter for the Saintees btw]

    Charlie has been good for us for a good few games now...I think he's lost his mantle as worst ref ever, his reputation is now undeserved IMO.

    No danger. He's overseen more potential riots thanks to his woeful ineptitude than any other referee I recall for a good long time...he is just THAT bad.

    We would have been struggling to hand pick worst refs for these 2 games.

    Brines is the worst, most "I am Mr important" Ref in the SPL, I just hope he is strong enough for the Huns game.

    He came down hard on cheating Rangers in the 1-1 Ibrox draw, and gave us lots of 50/50s. Also gave us a very soft pen in the st johnstone game.

    Charlie is a Hibby

    Winters

    have had him a few times and he carries several stones too much for a referee .
    He was the ref that sent off the Dundee United full back for a legitimate on Naismith when he was still with Killie tho he had the guts to admit his error and got the ordering off rescinded tho it didnt help United as they then lost 2-1 after being ahead prior to the ordering off .
    Also cant believe the "Charlie is ok statements" he is a clown and one swallow doesnt make a summer and will take a lot of better performances before I change my opinion on him .
    Brines is an inept clown .

    Cool

    With a full house-top of the table game against Rangers being live on the box, I don't think that Brines will be able to help himself. So look forward to stop start as players and fans alike are continually reminded that the dude in the black is the real reason we have all turned up. Maybes SKY can do us all a favour and set up Ref-cam as one of their viewing options. If he is told in advance that there will always be a camera on him, he may have a decent game.

    That'll be three bad referees then

    Winter was utterly abysmal in the last Hibs game he refereed (2-0 win over Hamilton at ER last December) and almost looked as if he'd never seen a football game in his life. Hamilton's one intention on that day appeared to involve attempting to injure our boys at every opportunity, compounded by the fact that the ref seemed content to stand back and let them get on with it. It took him until late on in the 2nd half to book one of their players despite the amount of shocking challenges that had gone unpunished earlier on, including a particularly bad one on Fletcher before HT (IIRC) where the offending player wasn't even given a talking to.

    Charlie's performances in Hibs games this year have been too good to be true so is due a bad match. Brines is just an absolute buffoon.

    Dougie McDonald. One of the better refs in Scotland

    Oh and on the topic of referees, anyone know what's happened to Calum Murray and Eddie Smith this season?

    Haven't seen them mentioned anywhere of late

    Richmond reminds me of Jeff Winter from the EPL, a self-promoting fud-dodger who just luuuuuuuuuuurves to be centre-stage with his big grey bulbous head looming large in the camera lens, barking out the orders and trying, and failing, to look like he's not a man to be messed with.

    He's a pernickety, c0cknosed scrote of a man who is long overdue a prolonged stint refereeing amateur football where he won't have cameras and security to prevent him getting a burst lip.

    And if you think that's harsh, don't get me started on Alan f***ing Freeland.......

    To be honest, Richmond has improved a lot since the worst ref performance I ever saw v Motherwell I think - when the players just stopped paying attention.

    Brines is still crap, can't forget Morton last year.

    Brines is awful.. Remember the Motherwell game.. It got to a point where HIbs players couldn't make a tackle because they kept getting a fouls against them...

    Don't know about Murray but Smith was the clown who sent off Chris Innes at Celtic Park then had to tell him to come back on as he had only received one booking.... He will have probably been pumped to Division 3 ....

    Definitely. The sooner he's back refereeing in the top division the better.
