Just watched some of the first half yesterday on Hibs TV. At the game I thought the tackle on Gray was a straight red. Seeing it again it is far worse that I thought. A real nasty high tackle.

Tackle on David Gray

Think the lad is Daniel. Recognise him from youth football and only 18. Aberdeen youth if I am right. Accidental probably.

SDG got hit on the mid way point of his shin and he already had his foot 6 inches off the ground. The ball was around a yard away when Harvey made contact. One thing is sure it was a good deal worse than the two Bartley reds or the McGinn one

Potential leg breaker. Referee should have done his job properly and sent the Dumbarton player straight off. I wish the referee was allowed to explain why he decided not to do so.

Shocking tackle!!! Last thing we need is more injuries with McGinn, Harris, Kettings etc already side lined, that's a fair chunk off a squad there, ref's need to step up and protect the players.

What's the thinking and / or logic behind not allowing referees to speak after matches? Is there any?

It might settle arguments, give clarity, and lessons may be learned to avoid mistakes being made in future.

They get a penalty decision wrong, they say - "in real time, from my angle, it looked a foul, having watched it back, I was wrong, I apologise"
They get a hand ball wrong - "in real time, from my angle, it looked like it didn't touch his hand, having watched it back, I was wrong, I apologise"
They give a yellow for a shocker of a tackle - "in real time, from my angle, it looked like a yellow card offence, having watched it back, I was wrong, I apologise"
It wouldn't settle any arguments, it wouldn't mean they would be a better ref in the future either.

The end of the same season the referees put it to a vote at the Old Course Hotel in St. Andrews to speak out after games, it was unanimously rejected by them!
And ever since the veil of silence is only broken by phone calls to apologise to the Uglies for wrong calls!!!!

I just don't see what's wrong with hearing what the referee has to say, even if it is only to admit he got a decision wrong. Or actually got it right, as the case may be. What's wrong with transparency?
If evidence could also be produced to clearly show if a decision was correct or incorrect, so much the better. I can't see how this wouldn't help to settle any arguments.
We clearly disagree. No big deal.

What makes it all the more galling is the amount of money paid for part-time work?
£800+ expenses and do not seem to be accountable to anyone!
If a player makes a mistake its yellow or red cards, if referee makes a mistake "he's only human"???
Why don't the SFA or SPFL publish the reports on games made by Supervisors in the stand at every game?????

I'm not suggesting they give explanations for contentious decisions immediately after games. Maybe 48 hours after the game to allow time for review?
As you say, they and /or whoever is responsible for such matters don't help themselves.
