We need the media to raise the problem and get it up the agenda at the SFA. TV referees to help decide crucial decisions would be a start and the money should come from the SPFL before any share out of TV money. All grounds should be covered in the SPFL and big TV screens used to display what the ref is looking at so that the spectators can see what happened too.
Cud you imagine if the old firm were behind at home, the last 10 mins wud take an hour to play they wud have the ref looking into everything from their players being breathed on heavily to the family trees of the linesman.

Hello ancestry UK, this is Bobby Madden at ibrox, can you help, quick enquiry for you.

I despair that Avrils quite legitimate gripes are down played as sour grapes from those in the media.

Michael Stewart "rangers were the better team anyway".....so ****ing what they still have to win legitimately.

The Celtic pen decision is also excused because "they missed".

The talk shud be, wasn't a pen, wasn't in the box, two officials missed the keeper being 3 yards off his line.

I don't know what the answer is.

Seen two refs one for each half (so it gives them less to do) suggested but surely that wud be impractical and maybe just end up twice as bad.

The other thing Levin said that was astounding was that the refs supervisor encouraged them to play offside on the 18 yard line as it was easier for the linesman.

Never understand why laser technology cudnt be used at free kicks to help ref with ten yards (instead of thon silly string) and linesman at free kicks. You wouldn't think that wud be expensive.
