Was ref right or wrong to give a pen on Saturday?
Only seen it once and thought he caught him.....Dee commentator (unbiased obviously 😁 ) seemed to see a replay and thought no pen.
The type of penalty we have given against us regularly - QoS another example. Giving the referee a decision to make is just plain stupid, especially Collum who loves giving penalties and booking / sending off people, the more controversial the better for him - all about the power.
I didn't think it wasn't a penalty, not nailed on but not a blatantly poor decision.
Not a penalty for me, plus the player was moving away from the goal, typical of type of decisions you get from Collan.
Doesn't matter whether the player's moving toward the goal or away from it, a foul inside the box is a penalty. Definitely soft but the problem is giving a control freak like Collum, and a lot of our other referees, the chance to give it.
Penalty against us but not against a certain other two clubs.
What annoyed me with the penalty decision, was the contact was deemed to be a foul, yet all over the park , players from both sides made tackles, many of which were fouls, but never given,
Why should it be different in the box ?
Collum loves giving penalties, it puts him in the spotlight and he loves that.
Saturday was a prime example of what he wants, Dundee won 2-0 and had several other good chances against a decent but very negative and stuffy Arbroath side that are difficult to break down and to score against; and here we are talking about one of his decisions.
Funny how folk see things, I thought Arsenals pen a stone Waller yesterday, my dad thought not as shot already in row z.
We were watching the game I said to him...."Did you ever think you'd see folk lying behind a wall when you were watching Doug Cowie and co"
Didn't even dignify question with a response.
Games completely different from what I started watching mid seventies, it must look baffling to those who started watching in the 40s and 50s.
