Alan newlands. Not even a regular premiership ref.

Cheers. He's a joke.

***BILLYHIBS*** · 31-01-2023 09:26 PM

If that is the Uglies that is a foul on the goalkeeper every time

No doubt about it

Can we not get officials from abroad to operate VAR? Fed up with these corrupt cheats from the West wrecking the game in this country.

That's what I would go for as well as some of the VAR decisions or lack of decisions are now becoming a joke. I have seen numerous challenges on goalkeepers this season with minimal contact given as fouls.
Rangers seem to benefit from more decisions or lack of decisions from VAR than other clubs. Other clubs forums seem to echo the same opinion.

It's. A baffling decision

Watson clearly just comes and barges into Marshall

Its about as easy a foul on the goalie you will see

White is probably fouling too but Watson is the clear one

The ref had to give it, it’s a free kick in every game. To then compound it by reviewing it back and still not giving it is unbelievable. We’ve been at the wrong end of a good few VAR decisions and never had a questionable one in our favour. When you look at the ones Rangers have escaped with it beggars belief. There has to be more in this than just bad luck, it’s actually added to the already harsh deal we get from officials.

I actually agree. Week after week it just highlights there's literally no point in having it if the people using it are absolutely useless and not qualified to do their job.

They did do their job. VAR was always going to be as good as the people looking at it. Cheating, corrupt west coast ref’s got their dream Christmas present

**Chorley Hibee** · 31-01-2023 09:31 PM

Compare that foul tonight (that wasn't given) to the foul (penalty) awarded to Rangers at the weekend.

The more this continues the more I'm ready to chuck the game up here.

What is the point in propping up this farce.

Agree about the ref. There's actually a point before play resumes where the camera is focussed on him with a few Hibs players around him complaining, he seems to mouth 'nothing to do with me, VAR is checking'. It's ****ing absolutely something to do with you, do your job and give the foul in the first instance.

If it's nothing to do with ref's then just get them to **** and let the game be run by VAR.

The unholy spawn of Alan Freeland no doubt

**gbhibby** · 31-01-2023 09:36 PM

The best referees we had in this country was when the Scottish refs went on strike and we had foreign refs. R H Davidson would be proud of the refs today

Opinion on VAR hasn’t changed since the first day it was introduced in world football.

Same **** decisions, now just takes longer to make them and ruins watching the game while they’re at it.

A constant ****ing nonsense.

***basehibby*** · 31-01-2023 09:52 PM

Serious question here - would it be appropriate for a member of the public to make a complaint to the Police over this incident? It's as clear an indicator of match fixing as you're ever likely to see - like the VAR guy has been nobbled or something. I know some naive types will give it the "it could never happen here" line - but match fixing DOES happen around the world and in multiple sports and I see no reason to believe that Scottish football refs are somehow immune to corruption - are they not always complaining about their pay afterall? In this case it's so blatant that I would have thought an arrest and confiscation of laptops/phones etc for investigation would be a reasonable step to take. How can someone possibly get something so incredibly wrong?

**HarpOnHibee** · 31-01-2023 09:53 PM

**HibeeHibernian4** · 31-01-2023 09:58 PM

Did we get asked if we wanted var by anyone at the club?

**HIBERNIAN-0762** · 31-01-2023 10:04 PM

Seems like it's only two teams that are benefiting from this farce and that's the huns and that maroon trash 😡💩

**GreenCastle** · 31-01-2023 10:06 PM

Am I right to think that clubs are actually paying for VAR and the higher up you finish the more you pay for it ?

So guess who top 2 are..guess who pays the most for it..

Co-incidence ?

**Zazu62** · 31-01-2023 10:06 PM

Did anyone see the rangers game at the weekend? Don’t know why st Johnstone even bothered turning up

A good comparison. Lack of consistency in their decisions is wild.

The decisions are very consistent. We never get them.

**GreenCastle** · 31-01-2023 10:11 PM

VAR just shows how bad are refs are and always have been.

Sooner we get a higher level of refs the better - not sure why we don’t open it to all and not just local Scottish refs ? Seems a bit backwards and closed shop.

We don’t even open it up to local Scottish refs… mostly just weegie refs

We don’t even get “local Scottish refs”. Local if you’re in Glasgow/Lanarkshire. Opening it to Scottish referees from the East, North East, Tayside, Perth, Highlands etc would be a start. But as you say, it’s a closed shop.
