Looks like it’s because they both got booked against hearts

The SPFL and the SFA should be investigating why Willie Collum did not abandon this game due to thick fog.
Sitting in the Main Stand you could hardly see the Main Stand side touchline let alone the middle of the pitch.
Collum should be explaining why he did not abandon the game as there was no way he could see both goalmouths from the centre of the pitch. It was a farce.

Did you stand in the centre of the pitch and check whether or not you could see both goals? Or is this another one of your researches based solely on your opinion that have provided a conclusion from which you will never be swayed despite the hard fact that a very experienced referee, who was in fact able to stand in the centre of the pitch and check if he could see the goals, deemed that the game should proceed?

Do you believe that you know the laws of the game better than Willie Collum?

Sitting in the Main Stand when the fog became dense you could only see the players on the pitch when the ball appeared close to the Main Stand side edge of the pitch.
Once Hearts scored to make it 1-0 there was no way that Collum was going to abandon the game.
Here is an interesting thought.
If Collum had abandoned the game due to the thick fog would the yellow cards issued to Leigh Griffiths and Paul McGowan have been cancelled.
I do not know the answer to that question but hopefully some of the ‘experts’ on this forum will know the answer.

As previously stated it's not about what you or I can see from the stands it's what can be seen by those actually on the pitch.

I believe the bookings would still count as the referee would have to submit a report whether the game concluded or not. Although a game is abandoned it's still a formal fixture under the auspices of the relevant national association.

I just watched footage of the Paul McGowan booking back on another forum. Maybe you should consider seeing a doctor (if you can get n appointment) as there's a distinct possibility you may have cataracts. From the camera situated in the gantry in The SE Enclosure the camera can see right into the back of the Main Stand.

I left this game early as from the front of Coxy you could barely see the half way line. Perhaps Gollum could see both goals from the centre circle but it wasn't a spectacle at all for the paying customers.

Rules are if you can see both goals from the centre spot the game goes ahead. Unfortunately, especially once it's started, the view from stands isn't taken into account.

I didn't leave early but if memory serves they scored at the Shankly end and I didn't see it from The Coxy.
