“All this ‘if there’s any doubt’ is nonsense. The fact it wasn’t a foul just means he got it wrong. ”


I think the point is he must have been in some doubt in that it wasn’t a foul.

I’ve only seen the highlights of the game, but McLean clearly gave the penalty because he believed it was a foul. He didn’t hesitate. All this ‘if there’s any doubt’ is nonsense. The fact it wasn’t a foul just means he got it wrong. Fan’s point appears to be that McLean got other things wrong as well. I don’t think that evens it out, it just shows he got things wrong. It happens. Rangers could have had at least one player sent off (how Goss wasn’t even booked is beyond me), so there’s evidence there that he was poor for both teams. The ref sees it once and has to make a decision instantly. If McLean doesn’t see Morelos touch the ball, then for him it’s an easy decision.

Doesn’t make it right, but as Fan pointed out, he feels the ref called a similar incident the same. The fact it didn’t result in a penalty becomes a moot point.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
As has been said two wrongs make a right? Does he rewrite the rules of the game cos he made a mistake prior.

If the ref gives a foul for a player diving does he then give a foul for ever other dive in the game on the basis that he gave the first one?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No-i said that it doesn’t even things out. The point being he called for fouls that he believed were fouls. He just got them wrong.

The point is he wasn’t in doubt. He gave the penalty straight away. No hesitation.

Yeah and the point is he should have been in doubt. Nobody looked at that and thought stone wall pen

‘The referee clearly influenced the game in Aberdeens favour. That cannot really be denied.’

His poor decision making benefitted both teams. Rangers could, and probably should, have had at least one player sent off.

“His poor decision making benefitted both teams. Rangers could, and probably should, have had at least one player sent off.”


Doesn’t infliuence the game the same as a pen ffs


When was the supposed sending offs? 80 odd mins


I’d take that over a dodgy pen against

Why should he have been in doubt if he didn’t see something?!

He should have seen it. It was basic stuff by movemrnt ot the ball. He was 3 yards away with unobstructed view

I don’t know what time the Goss challenge was, but it’s fairly petty to say it doesn’t influence the game. If you’d went down to 10 men, you’d have had the advantage...

Yes in a perfect world, I can accept he made a mistake. It was not an easy call to make, it happens.

Fan has disappeared weirdly after his "thickest comment of the year" contender
---------------------------------------------------------

Maybe the penny dropped with Gilhaus that what he was saying was just plain ludicrous.

Or maybe now that the dust has settled somewhat he has realised that Aberdeen blew their big chance to secure second last night and a draw was in fact a good result for Rangers.

Either way from his last dummy spitting comment he clearly wasn't happy.

Slinked away in a wee bitter Rangers hating huff.....

Clearly he didn’t though, for whatever reason. Literally the blink of an eye stuff for that moment.

Yeah well he should of if he was looking at it and if he wasn’t looking then shouldn’t be awarding anything

did those tackles occur before or after rangers equalised?

“don’t know what time the Goss challenge was, but it’s fairly petty to say it doesn’t influence the game. If you’d went down to 10 men, you’d have had the advantage...”


Didn’t you say earlier that you thought gets dhould have been down to ten men ?

Gers should

No Fans point was that cos he gave a similar tackle as a foul previous then it should be a foul for the same thing for the rest of the match? I gave the diving example above and have had no answers in regards to it.

“

You not seen it?


Have any tims actually seen the game they are commenting on?

Correct-a similar decision he got wrong apparently. All that means is that he thought it was a foul.
