No, because it's incumbent on the SFA to address this problem and not go for a quick fix.

Make them full time and declare their team. That way we will have a broad spectrum of refs and only the best will be kept in rather than what job they do.

Why anyone thinks an re teacher would be a good ref is beyond me

Making them full tims just means paying more for the same mistakes.

Get a load of Irish Refs to come over, just so Celtic can see what it's like to be Rangers for a season.

I remember when they got foreign refs in before and one of the refs from Malta or wherever gave a stinker of a decision against Celtic.

Var ain't perfect, but it'd make the honest mistakes excuse much more difficult to hide behind, i'm all for it, foreign ref's ain't the answer although it would be an improvement over the current lot.

Our referee was from Luxembourg and he had an excellent match. Thing I noticed was his positioning. He was always close to the play but usually just being the ball.
If you watch our refs they are constantly in the way of the attaching team...usually just a few yards in front of the guy with the ball.

Seems to be that the foreign refs understand that they are there to referee the match but not get in the way of the play. They Scottish refs seem to think that the priority is just to be in the best position for them.

They are badly trained and that all comes from the man who runs the show despite no longer being employed here.

So your ref was well-positioned but still made that stinker of a decision. OK.
