Hertha/BJFC1938 Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 I called the troon victory and they will be a force this season believe me . I had no doubts that they would go up to newlandsfield and do a job . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
archieb Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Pollok denied 2 stonewall penalties due to an incompetent ref. Troon totally outplayed us though and deserved to win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lokforever Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 What's a blank elbow and who are Pollock? It's east to say don't complain about the ref when the decisions go for you, that's 4 stonewall penalties denied in 2 games all caught on video, hard to take.

Troon Fc Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Great to see a starting 11 with an average of 23.5 years old doing the business against a very strong Junior team! The young lads are blossoming down at Portland Park! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobRoyGuy Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 It wasn't a strong junior team, it was a decent Pollok side who had 12 players available. Also you make the point of the average age of your team, let's not pretend you only have young players you have excellent experience in the team that will also cost a right few quid. Troon will do well this season, won't win the league, won't finish second maybe third or fourth if. All my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fb81 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Fans are quite entitled to complain about refs on here - although it gets a bit boring when it's every week. But some players and management of Pollok FC should not be slating refs on Twitter IMO. Very unprofessional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The standard of refs isn't great at times but it's a bit of a tired excuse at times for me when your team don't perform. Footballers on an off day will make as many if not more mistakes than referees, it's too easy to blame refs all the time . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lokloyal Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Troon have assembled a powerful looking squad-are there ex seniors in there or is it mainly junior/amateur grade guys? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackD1908 Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 Now seen the highlights and stills from Saturday. How we never got a penalty is beggars belief. You can see why everyone is raging at the officials after Saturday and Wednesday. Ref gets his job right and we are potentially in a semi final and have at least a point on the board. Troon's best player on the day should have been sent off in the first half. Who scored the second goal? Oh yeh same guy. Someone has to officiate the officials.

You see ref supervisors lots of times at games. Remember taking in a game as a neutral a couple of years ago and the ref was genuinely honking , through a good source I heard that the referee supervisor gave him top marks though Sometimes I think it happens as to crucify a guy could make him pack it in and they try to encourage them to keep them at it It's so frustrating when big decisions go against you but there's no game without them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big difference between a dodgy close challenge or a debatable handball and 4 clear cut decisions that impact the game and show the officials don't understand the rules! It won't help but the incompetence must be highlighted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobRoyGuy Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 You can highlight it till the cows come home. No referee, no linesman is gonna read. Fair enough it will maybe make you feel better but that's about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manintheknow Posted August 31, 2015 Share Posted August 31, 2015 I'm almost certainly old fashioned but ..... I do think the management team at Pollok need to adjust to the fact that they are at a top club which demands certain standards of behaviour and decorum. I like the boys and am a huge admirer or Stuart Ralston as a coach and man but.... As a team they sailed too close to the wind many times at Shotts and they were no shrinking violets in their amateur days. Pollok didn't lose because of the ref. They lost because Troon were the better team. Tony needs some advice from the older heads around him because Pollok need a management team who can fill the big suits that come with that job.
