As a former referee who spent a few years in the wosl set up until end of the 21/22 season, consistency of officiating, backing by the SFA for officials out with tier 1 of the pyramid, training and observations by peers as opposed to observers who have been out the game for years and have no practical application of the new laws and interpretations, accountability for officials, transparency by officials, allowances for officials to show some personality in their matches as opposed to the linear robotic route they are going down.

Thought we played well Saturday, playing against a team who have recruited largely from leagues above bar the Darvel contingent following Mick to K Park. Didn't feel we were ever out the game, things could've been different had their second goal not come from a non existent free kick that was nothing more than standing your ground.
