He says Polworth did swear but at the Aberdeen player not the ref. Does that make any difference? If we appeal it will get downgraded to a yellow meaning two yellows and a sending off. Overall penalty points would be lower though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No - so it would be stupid having admitted to foul and abusive language, for the player or manager to even consider an appeal if that’s reason in ref’s report Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the alleged language was directed specifically at the ref then fair enough, but if Polwarth was giving the player who had just upended him a mouthful, is that really a booking or a straight red. Given the general shite performance of the ref in the game, I think an appeal might be justified in this case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spit_It_Out Posted January 24, 2021 Report Share Posted January 24, 2021 I kid you not results aside but some of the refereeing the last 3 games has been shocking against us.If it was the ugly sisters from Glasgow the way they go on about it you would think it was a conspiracy.

bobbybingo Posted January 24, 2021 Report Share Posted January 24, 2021 The more I see the penalty that should've been, the worse it looks from our point of view. I don't buy that our players missed it - anyone watching the game saw it straight away and Alexander was chirping at the fourth official - so why the feck were they not screaming at the ref? If that's how bothered they are about things, the game's up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said it before, we need VAR in Scotland, its not perfect but it would look at some of the shite decisions we get from refs up here and hopefully highlight their obvious errors.

joewarkfanclub Posted January 24, 2021 Report Share Posted January 24, 2021 Thought we played reasonably well first half., sloppy defending for the goal aside. Good reaction from the players after the goal and short of some awful refereeing decisions should have been level at the break. Im not sure why folks think Polworth should have been red carded in the first half. It was clear that Aberdeen had marked him out for some "attention" so I can understand why he reacted the way he did when getting taken from behind again. Of course we have seen red cards given for less (see 2nd half) but that doesnt mean its right. I thought the ref got that spot on with a yellow card apiece. Not sure what has happened for the red card itself. Polworth does try to draw the foul but gets clattered from behind yet again, so if something has been said, surely that has to be taken into account? The ref has played advantage to us, so the card cannot be for anything Polworth has done in the tackle. Will be very interesting to see if any explanations are forthcoming. After that, what happened was kind of inevitible, although I was surprised that no action was taken against Ferguson for a quite blatant elbow on Crawford. If the referee had evened things up there it might have given us some hope. As it was we have Liam Kelly to thank for keeping the score respectable. I dont think things are totally doom and gloom. Our deficiencies havent changed, but we did respond better to going behind than anything I have seen this season. The manager will also be getting more of a handle on what he needs to do to get us up the table. I would expect one or 2 more signings soon.

Still an easy couple yellows if you ask me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't believe we have a hope of over turning the red and frankly don't believe we should appeal. Polworth got knocked over and the ref played advantage - perhaps the Aberdeen player should have been booked. After advantage was played the ref came back to Polworth - in what looked to see if he was OK. Polworth was on his knees but facing the ref and must have said something. His fault, total idiot for mouthing off, he's clearly someone who's unhappy in life. I think he's the most creative player we have but his attitude is poor - if he wants to move back up North then we should let him go now.

grizzlyg Posted January 24, 2021 Report Share Posted January 24, 2021 When Ref showed the red card Polworth didnt exactly look totally shocked. If he believed he was totally innocent then surely he would have protested more. An appeal is just a waste of money as wont get overturned.

The excuse will be "reported" as cost, but the reality is VAR will disproportionately affect the Old Firm and so will never be allowed! Everyone gets affected by shite refs, some teams (like us Now) more than others at times, but the constant is always that the Old Firm get every 50/50 their way, and some even more blatant decisions too. VAR would even out a lot of those decisions and Lawwell will never allow that 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"He is our most creative player", and he is shite. We create very little from midfield to assist the forwards, hence we don't score a lot of goals. His form has fallen of a cliff, and he needs to be dropped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All it generally takes is one goal to beat us because we are so ineffective up front and frankly no permutation of forwards is going to change that on the supply they get.

This issue was mentioned on P & B, a variable site in the extreme. We pretty much knew last summer that David Turnbull would leave, so that only left Polworth as his sole successor in the midfield creative role, unless you include Jamie Semple, who was punted out on loan. What if Polworth was injured? What if he lost form......? Again a failure of recruitment last summer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Great Balls of Shire Posted January 24, 2021 Report Share Posted January 24, 2021 I saw it but didn't hear commentators saying anything, but was that ball still in play in first half, when Seedorf cut it back When watching , didn't look over the line.

We badly miss Donnelly who is far more of an influence than he’s given credit for. We were fine last season when he played even without Turnbull.

Alexander must be wondering about the standard of reffing up here. Last weeks v Rangers was touch and go but the pen v st Mirren and the non pen yesterday plus seedorf cut back.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
