United to appeal Red card. Have video evidence from other angles.
There are limited camera angles in VAR in Scotland which means it can only catch certain images.
If it is not 100% then get it to ****.
If United the appeal they should demand VAR is removed until it can be run properly. With this amateur lot in charge of Scottish football that will be never
This!! But are you surprised that we rushed it through and have made a c*nt of it? Scottish Football at its finest.Quote:

I'll be angry if they even downgrade it a yellow, it shouldn't be a booking full stop. I'm not one for generally having a go at refs, but the standard here is bogging. On Beaton, I specifically remember him giving one of the worst decisions I've seen last season when awarding Hibs a handball penalty against St John at easter road. He is completely hopeless as are most of them, which is another reason we shouldn't have VAR up here, it gives us 2 incompetents sets of officials instead of one and therefore twice the opportunity to mess up, and highlight just how poor they are.
I'll be pretty surprised if this isn't the way it'll pan out. It's hard to see any milage coming from our appeal. If the red card is overturned it just officially embarrasses TWO referees at once.Quote:

In our Scottish Cup tie v Celtic at home last season he left unpunished Hatate raking Freeman's leg.
On Saturday he took home £850 + 45p/mile (£75).
He's a EUFA ref and can earn between £2.5k and £7k for their games.
Just shows you don't have to be very good.
Thanks be to Transfermrket.

Ref (very close) waves play on. VAR ref (miles away) sees something (ahem....) Straight red???? What a crock of Sh**e.....
No like Twitter to have a load of *******s on it. 🙂Quote:
