    GB wanting VAR

    That means me having to listen to 5 or 10 more minutes of absolute nonsense from some " fans " and I'm sure I read their ain't enuf class 1 refs to operate it at championship level.

    Guy yesterday got his decision overturned by 5 Arbroath players, no chance of him sticking to his guns against VAR.

    Just watched the highlights on DeeTV. Referee gave the free kick and was walking away with no intention of getting the card out - should be shot for letting himself be influenced by the Arbroath players. A decent referee would have booked at least one of them for ungentlemanly conduct - exactly the same offence as waving a hand in the air indicating yellow card the way the foreign players used to do a few years back and that they got booked for.

    Var is only worthwhile for undermining refs decisions. Need to redraft laws for offside decisions and handball in the penalty box.

    The SFA should be ensuring that all their referees are capable of abiding by the rules of the game and not being brow beaten by opposition players into getting an oposing player sent off.
    In my opinion Scott Lambie who was the referee in charge of yesterday’s game was hopeless and he should never be allowed to referee another SPFL game until he undergoes a very long extended period of retraining.

    Hard to tell from camera angle but he seemed to run from behind the defender after the ball was played. Looks onside.

    With nost of the officials that run line in scotland there is an element of guessing and those that shout loudest.

    GB is more in face of ref than any of our players, which dosent always help.

    Other teams surround the ref, it's just not the Dundee way, as is PATG, communication with fans or any semblance of moving forward together.

    I genuinely thought this side was growing up but Monday was a fricking disaster......reaction, bouncenackability whatever you want to call it .....I hope to see it Friday .....in the flesh as usual cause I'm so far in I can't get out even if I wanted to.
