Rightly or wrongly, pulling a shirt like that once your opponent is past you is a booking every time these days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He could have easily carded Anderson earlier in the game as well after the (imo good) tackle on Kingsley, so I suppose you could make of that what you will. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnydun Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 (edited) Some Jambo takes on the refereeing....

On 18/12/2021 at 18:47, Insert Amusing Pseudonym said: I was more annoyed with Collum for him somehow not booking Anderson later for him scything Halliday. Which tbf, I can't blame him for. On 18/12/2021 at 19:03, Insert Amusing Pseudonym said: I mean it's his default tbf. I don't think he favoured anyone, he's just genuinely shite. I thought we had a good shout for a penalty he ignored on McKay, but he gave a fair few soft free kicks to us on the edge of the box when we were defending. He never seems to have control of a game Edited December 24, 2021 by johnnydun 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think anything could unite Scottish football more than Collum being done for Match fixing. Feel all warm and fuzzy inside just thinking about it.

RandomGuy. Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 Unfortunately Collum has years of strange, inconsistent, decisions to fall back on to prove there's nothing odd about him treating similar incidents differently. But tbf most of them clips are understandable bookings. I think the Griffiths one is the worst but I dunno if he was booked for his reaction rather than the foul? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G51 Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 Griffiths was booked for persistent fouling. That was his fifth foul. Investigations like this are obviously launched because the bookies have seen a flood of money on a very small market, not because the refereeing decisions were questionable. Could be wrong but I’m pretty sure this has nothing to do with Collum. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benjamin_Nevis Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 Collum is simply a dreadful referee, who gives the impression he absolutely loves a game to be all about him. It's hard to imagine him being part of some cunning plan to scam the bookies 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From reading the story I got the impression it was the players that they were going to investigate rather than Collum, I.e getting themselves deliberately booked. I may have misread it though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I may have misread it though. It is the players. Anyone who watches us regularly cannot be surprised at the 4 that got booked. Anderson is robust and I like that, McGowan and Mullen try like f**k for the team and I like that and Griffiths has forgotten he’s not playing for the arse cheeks. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stu2910 Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 How many players on the pitch were nearing the yellow card threshold? See where im going with thisIt’s a fair question, but given that the players on the pitch were pretty much the only players we had at that moment, it’s hard to believe we would be trying to get suspensions.IMO, there’s 2 cynical fouls (McGowan and Anderson) and 1 dissent (Griffiths) which will always be bookings. Mullen doesn’t even touch Haring I don’t think but if Collum thinks he does and it’s a foul it’s probably a yellow. Hard to see that there’s anything strange going on on the football side. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJF Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 Aye, it’ll be the players rather than Collum that the investigation will revolve around. I’m not sure exactly what the triggers are, but I remember reading something that for a bookmaker to raise an investigation around suspicious betting, it usually involves a pattern of bets (either large singles or numerous smaller bets) significantly larger than you would normally see on a particular market coming from multiple accounts. I think they also have the data available to see whether or not these accounts could be linked or associated persons. So, if they’ve asked to open an investigation, it sounds as though they believe there has been some insider info leaked rather than it being punters have clocked that these specific players were likely to get booked and have taken advantage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ric Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 Looked at the story, looked at who the referee was. On one hand, I do believe Dundee players would do this because, after all, their season has been awful so far and it's that sort of thing that hits your club when you are already in trouble. On the other, it's Colum, who is simply a dreadful referee that takes his capriciousness very seriously and will book people on a whim. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think Collum booking players is the issue, it’s any bets perceived to be suspicious surrounding the bookings. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
