I agree there were a lot of poor decisions there but was that this year? also I presume the commentary was from the Aberdeen Times; not every single one was a stonewaller. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rodhull Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Didn't Dallas f**k up the penalty in the league cup final then give a phantom penalty for St.Johnstone against Hearts a few days later? It's not like there's only a couple of incidents. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've also heard folk giving him flack over the Gary Harkins red against us. It was the correct decision. All that said, I'm not dying on a hill over it being only two! I just think its being overly scrutinised now because there's bandwagon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bairnardo Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Dallas is an abysmal excuse for a referee. Watching his perfomances would make zero sense if you never knew who his dad was. Without even a tiny shadow of doubt, nepotism is the reason he is a top level referee in Scotland 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

101 Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 1 hour ago, tirso said: Totally agree. but i was meaning more the vocational part of the word professional. Paid full time to work full time. I don't see how a referee can really be working full time. The job doesn't work like that. Too be fair I think the referees should do stuff like teaching players the laws of the game - most players clearly don't know all of the laws. I think they should also be all meeting up far more regularly - I would agree that I have no idea what they would do once their career is over but still 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Austin McCann Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Dallas awarded one of the most ridiculous penalties i've ever seen to earn St Johnstone a 2 all draw with Hearts only a couple of months ago. A couple of shockers covers the last few days, but you don't have to go too far back for the howlers to start adding up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
williemillersmoustache Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 4 hours ago, tirso said: unpopular opinion - the refs generally do ok and in isolation each of those penalties at Ibrox could well have been given by many. you could even make an argument that he's been stronger for making the decision when other penalties have been given. why should it matter if there's one, two or three? Making them professional doesn't work. What are they going to do all week? at no point can you recreate that type of decision making. it's not the same as perfecting your technique crossing a ball. If anything being in a usually high powered job, lawyer etc is exactly what they need from a pressure point of view. punishing referees publicly is a sure fire way to stop people getting involved. they're already punished enough as it is without their employers taking away their backing as well. Dallas has made two high profile shockers. That's the sum total. This post is an inverted shite sandwich, good in the middle, jobbie at each end. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gkneil Posted February 6, 2019 Share Posted February 6, 2019 Pat Bonner just being Pat Bonner. Celtic side jumps off the tonight with no issue but can barely get through the full Hibs side even with the names in front of him. Followed that up stating Hibs will be a back 4 before then giving 3 names as defenders, 5 in midfield and 2 up top. Richard Gordon did pick him up on The back 4 reminding him that Lewis Stevenson is a LB. only been playing there for 10+ years Pat. Rounded it off nicely by saying that it’ll be interesting to see if Hibs can pose a threat but that Celtic are focussed on the big games like the Valencia ones and then Aberdeen, Rangers, Killie & Hearts. Nothing but contempt for Hibs tonight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was left saying to the radio "OK Pat, what about Hibs and their new signings"?Then Gordon Smith said there had been more pressure on Rangers than Aberdeen as they were trying to maintain a title challenge. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That game was lasrt season in December 2017. I wouldn't disagree with you about the Shinnie booking and I think the other bookings of Dons players for fouls shown in that clip were all justified. But the point is he let an almost incredible amount of similar or worse fouls /challenges by the **** go unpunished. And that was actually the Rangers TV commentators. Even they couldn't believe it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He then went on about Celtic having a big cup tie at the weekend, do Hibs not? Someone needs to call Bonner up on this shite. People like him and Smith should not be anywhere near a national broadcast. Willie Miller and Neil McCann both defending Allan McGregor too - Miller's comments in particular were pretty poor. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
