Referees need to be stronger with VAR and penalties in general IMO, not just when it comes to shirt pulls. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually thought the Rangers commentary was half decent and Kevin Thomson clearly has a soft spot for us. I understand that nowadays shirt pulling like that is a penalty but it was genuinely the first thing my old man taught me about defending. Hold on to your guys shirt so that you can look all around to see play developing knowing you are still ‘on’ your man. Changed days. I also feel the red is in the same category. For our ‘penalty’ I initially thought it was outside the box and I haven’t seen any evidence to the contrary since. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dons_1988 Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 A shirt pull in itself is not immediately a foul. That is not up for debate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When your defending, you'll find both players will hold shirts, its when one player doesn't make an attempt at going for the ball that then becomes the issue Had the dundee boy yesterday ran with the rangers player and jumped for the ball, while pulling the jersey slightly, imo VAR doesn't even give it a second glance, however to simply not move for the ball and essentially stop the striker from going for it, thats where the foul comes in Defenders really need to be smarter nowadays 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meeniedee Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 I look forward to the seethe the minute(if ever) the rangers concede a penalty for a shirt tug Like I said yesterday there is no way Dundee gets a decision like that at Ibrox ...the ref saw nothing wrong and I'd put money on it that VAR doesn't get involved if at the other end 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange that we had a perfectly good goal chopped off at 3-1 because the ref stopped play early instead of letting it play out, had a yellow upgraded to a red because a ref being 5 yards away isnt deemed to have seen it properly Yet everyone moans about the correct penalty we got Fucking hell 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Huisdean50 Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 Again, the ref had a perfectly good view of the penalty incident and didn't give it. So either the ref is useless, well it is Clancy, or he's too frightened to overrule VAR. As for shirt pulling, holding by defenders, that happens every game outside of the penalty box, mostly, it's the striker getting fouled but referees rarely give a foul. What's the difference with the penalty then? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure Clancy awarding a yellow for what was deemed a red card offence despite being 5 yards away quite makes the point you think it does. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Connolly Posted December 10, 2023 Share Posted December 10, 2023 You have to give Clancy credit though, as presumably giving that penalty early on meant there was no further shirt pulling in the box for the remainder of the game. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does, the poster i replied to said the ref saw nothing wrong at the penalty incident, i merely showed just how fucking incompetent clancy is with 2 decisions that went against rangers, one he looked at from 5 yards away and needed a replay from 50 yards away to see it better, and the other he blew way early instead of allowing the play to go on and then come back if needed 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennett Posted December 11, 2023 Share Posted December 11, 2023 A bit pointless appealing this as it was a red.

"Rangers have launched a bid to free Jose Cifuentes for Sunday’s Viaplay Cup Final by appealing the midfielder’s red card against Dundee" I’ve just seen this. Why on Earth would you appeal that? It’s a red all day long. That said, we’ve all seen blatant red cards appealed and overturned for no apparent reason whatsoever, so why not? ETA is he not, to boot, utterly dreadful and almost certainly going to be binned in the summer anyway?
