No_Problemo Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 What has malice got to do with it? You clearly don't know the rules of the game. It was a potential leg breaker, straight footed lunge, over the ball, studs showing. The Hearts lad was lucky his foot wasn't planted otherwise it could have been a career ender.The tackle was made at the slowest pace imaginable. As much chance of breaking someone’s leg as Morelos kick out at McKenna. It also isn’t physically possibly to slide tackle someone without your studs showing to some extent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Football has laws not rules. The laws concerning serious foul play and violent conduct are for deliberate acts. You should know this Willie, FFS your a grade 1 referee. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The law concerning serious foul play is not only for deliberate acts - it covers any dangerous challenge. However, Dicker's wasn't dangerous in my opinion. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The number of people on every one of his twitter replies telling him he's a waste of talent - I felt like the only ones supporting him were us and the Reading fans. One even went so far as to say we should also take Micah Richards, Ross McCormack, Henri Lansbury, Scott Hogan, and Mark Bunn because they were all just as bad...aye, send them up I say...

Popular Post Coooombe Posted August 31, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted August 31, 2018 (edited) Steve Clarke's statement on the Dicker red card. Absolutely sensational, so glad to see him vociferously stand up for the club. Steve Clarke has issued this statement following the decision to uphold Gary Dicker's red card against Hearts. The midfielder will miss matches against Aberdeen and Hibernian after he was ruled to be guilty of serious foul play over a challenge on Callumn Morrison. "I have to say that I’m disappointed but not surprised by the decision of the confidential panel, who chose to ignore our appeal and back the referee’s original decision. "An appeal process that excludes the people involved, namely the player, the referee and officials of the appealing club from putting forward their case face to face with the adjudicating panel will sometimes be open to strange and inconsistent outcomes. This panel will usually be made up of three people and will, in all probability, include no former players, coaches or managers who understand football and the decisions that are made within a game. "My belief and that of the majority of people with a good knowledge of football would say that Gary Dicker’s tackle was a genuine effort to win the ball without malice or recklessness and with minimal contact on an opponent who proceeded to roll around as if seriously hurt only to get straight back to his feet on the issue of the red card. "The period of time between the tackle and red card decision was ridiculously short and lacked a calm and rational approach from such an experienced official. "I don’t want, or need to, go through recent instances where red cards have been rescinded or downgraded on appeal or where violent conduct on the field of play has been overlooked by officials because they are there for everyone to see. "Maybe smaller clubs like ourselves are fair game. "However, as I said at the start, I’m in no way surprised at the outcome of our appeal. As soon as I heard the news, very early in the week, that the referee in question had been appointed to take charge of the first Old Firm match of the season before our hearing had taken place I, and many other people, knew that the decision would go against Kilmarnock. There is no doubt that the perception of most and certainly of our club is that the hearing was pre-judged by this early appointment. "To finish I would like to reiterate my support for Scottish referees and believe that I have been a big voice in backing and supporting these sometimes maligned figures and despite issues like this one, they will continue to have my full respect and support."

paul wright scores Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Absolutely brilliant statement. He must suffer levels of OF paranoia too, as he also thought that we wouldn't win the appeal either once Collum was confirmed as referee for Sunday. "As soon as I heard the news, very early in the week, that the referee in question had been appointed to take charge of the first Old Firm match of the season before our hearing had taken place I, and many other people, knew that the decision would go against Kilmarnock.

killiepiemuncher Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 There will be a few suits squirming in their ivory towers after that eloquent statement. Then again it’s Scottish football hierarchy we’re talking about here so it’ll fall on deaf ears. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Widge Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Good on him. It’s about time managers started taking the hierarchy to task over their continual mistreatment of the smaller clubs. Clarke having a go at the SFA and Wright has taken Scott Gemmill to task over the under 21s. It’s refreshing to see managers now stick up for their teams in the media. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kennysmassiveego Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Superb statement from SSC . Much like Kevin Keegan I’d love it if they attempted to bring a charge of bringing the game into disrepute against SSC The fallout from that and the subsequent examination of there decision could ( but surely should ) be a game changer 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kyle Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 (edited) Excellent stuff from Clarke. I fully expect him to be issued with a notice of complaint and to be given a 10 game ban or something, which will make his point for him.
