After the latest comments on Leigh Griffith. - "In the eyes of SFA compliance officer Vincent Lunny, the 21-year-old is guilty of breaching rule 200 with "offensive, insulting or abusive gestures" deemed a sending-off offence."
I wasn't offended, insulted or considered it an abusive gesture... Have they even been to Ibrox or Parkhead... I'm offended every time I even look at them...

This compliance officer job is an absolute joke. If the referees and linesmen along with the fourth officials were any good at their jobs there would be no need for this idiot to be anywhere near football. So far apart from LG x 2 he has spotted the worst dive I've ever seen from Aluko, the one at Pittodrie against us, the headbutt against us. All shocking decision that should have been picked up by the officials at the game. He has now offered Houston at Dundee Utd a two game ban for saying that these officials are rubbish. What a joke!

I was offended. I've never given Griffiths abuse, nor did I hear any and was a bit shocked at his celebration at the time. Having done the same a few weeks ago he deserves another ban.

You'd gone a bit further and suggested Hibs just sat about doing nowt in the window until suddenly deciding to sign people later.
I suggested if you actually believed that then you were deluded. Which is true.

This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show QuoteWhat I actually said was "I can't believe no new signings have been made yet. (Both Doyle and Griffiths could well have been sorted before window opened.) I am really disappointed that no centre half, right back and or a leader on the park in midfield has been secured."
Exactly where did I say people were sitting on their hands and leaving it to the last minute? I am stating that I am disappointed that none of our worst positions have been signed. Frustrated yes, deluded definately not.
Finally I still believe you were inferring I was behaving like a deluded Jambo even if you want to paint it differently

The CO as far as I can tell is designed to be a safety net to get players who are caught cheating or of some other serious misdemeanour after a game. Why is that a joke? A player dives very effectively - referee sees it as a pen, and its given. It turns out after analysing it from half a dozen angles that the player was at it. Look at the Aberdeen open against us - the pundits in the studio were split 50/50 on if it was valid or not after upteen replays - what chance does a ref have of being 100% correct in an instant. You give what you see.
I wasnt convinced that the Ivan iver reacted to the Yam boys butt at the derby - I thought there was fair chance hed get a second yellow for simulation himself.
So, frankly, you're spouting drivel.

I don't think it's a joke that there is a post like the CO. Can come good if applied fairly and with an open mind. What I think is a joke is the fact that there is a "Rule 200". Two hundred??? and probably in excess of that!! Pen pushers making up rules for other pen pushers to apply.Last edited by Kato; 12-01-2012 at 11:52 AM.

Against Cowdenbeath he was celebrating his goal - entirely different in my view. Was it a good idea? Probably not. Was anyone other than the compliance officer genuinely upset by it? I d. I doubt it. Is there a need for the SFA to act? Not in my opinion. What should any player do in future after scoring? Show no reaction to ensure they do not offend the Compliance Officer or anyone else for that matter. Should the supporters follow suit just in case the oposing fans get upset at our team scoring? Probably better just in case! Does football benefit? No.
I know I'm going to extremes here but where exactly do you stop before all the passion and emotion disappears?

The reason for the need for the rules is the constant attempts of clubs and players to circumvent them for their own gain. In fairness, Stewart Regan has recognised the too great level of bureacracy within the SFA and has addressed it (worth downloading the "Scotland United" document from the SFA to see what the goals of the gam eare now - quite refreshing.
I couldnt find the rules easily of which the Griffiths' one is 200, but Im guessing a lot of it is procedural stuff that is dull, seldom referred to but necessary as a framework. It would be great if everyone could turn up, play the game and then go, but sadly life just aint like that.

I tend to agree that we need to be careful not to over santise the game. Griffiths however was stupid having gone through the Rangers thing to go gesturing again. You can celebrate, but dont be a fud would be the rule of thumb...

Never mind that the quality of Scottish football is going down the pan fast, as long we have men at the SFA determined to stamp out the evil of slightly offensive gestures on the field of play our game is in safe hands

Football in Scotland is donald ducked. Has been for decades. The level of bureacracy is one thing (which hasn't been addressed, not really, just because he's produced a paper with "goals" doesn't mean we won't get another nil-nil draw a la Ernie Walkers' Think Tank), but the problems are far deeper than non-footballing pen-pushers pushing pens around. Rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic springs to mind.

200 rules is a lot. The game itself only has 17.
It would be great if everyone could turn up, play the game and then go, but sadly life just aint like that.
200+ rules is a joke. The "Ungentlemanly Conduct" rule would cover a plethora of what we've seen in recent years including Griffiths offence.

If a player gets caught diving during a game and gets booked and nae penalty is given the result of the game insnae really influenced. If the dive is missed and the penalty given resulting in the outcome of the game being influenced by the cheating, then I'm all for the punishment being much more severe as it may help cut it out. Cheating is a bit different tae making a silly gesture and a ban for that sort of offence is nonsense IMO, a retrospective yellow should IMO be the punishment. Ban for this, ban for that, is nonsense IMO, the punishment should fit the crime.

The SFA have done many, many stupid things - farting about with kick off times for the benefit of TV is the biggest crime in my view. Making stuoid decisions on when games should be played, but the accusation that this is deliberate rather than historical incompetence is ridiculous. Is it populated by undercover operatives from the world of rugby?

Ungentlemanly Conduct doesnt exist any more, and even if it did in its previous incarnation, it wouldnt cover the Griffiths case in the eyes of the SFA.

The SFA are guilty of doing nothing to help the game here, they are more concerned about placating the Old Firm and after those two the general well being of the game is a poor second.

No it's populated by blazers, a lot of whom are Rangers fans. If destroying the game here meant Rangers going to the EPL why couldn't the incompetence be deliberate?
Discussed on many other threads, but I entirely agree with this stance. Refs are on a hiding to nothing. Managers slating refs directly or implicitly only increases the paranoia and blind stupidity that exists.
What an ignorant response. But you feel free to slate something without taking the time to read it.
Presumably if he hadnt been open and clear about what they were trying to do ypou would accuse them of being secretive or doing nothing?
For your benefit, in essence it says: "The SFA was pretty crap - too much bureacracy, not enough joined up thinking. Here's where we want to be in the next ten years, and heres how we're planning to get there."
But it's much easier to sound off without suggesting anything vaguely constructive isn't it?
Well the evidence is that being involved at amateur an youth levels for years the articles of association for almost any league or body is long, boring and primarily procedural, so no blind faith and as it turns out I found it. And it is long, dull and procedural. Again, the reason for this is not to block people doing things (although this will of course happen), but to stop people taking advantage of loopholes. These people tend not to be the SFA, but are the clubs, players and officials of clubs.
No. It doesnt have any rules. It has Laws.
I dont really understand what you're on about here - reads a bit like you're jealous of University Graduates with their high-falutin' ideas, but maybe I'm wrong.
Ungentlemanly Conduct doesnt exist any more, and even if it did in its previous incarnation, it wouldnt cover the Griffiths case in the eyes of the SFA.
The term may have changed given the rise of women's football but the law (cheers again) still exists. If you can't see how Griffiths offence comes under these then fair enough, be awkward.
