Guest Moomintroll Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 We are being punished at every turn now for having an articulate manager who calls out their incompetence in a reasonable, measured and factual manner. By the same measure why should Darian MacKinnon be punished retrospectively for what was a refereeing error? As[mention=26283]lonewolfie[/mention] has pointed out, the arse cheeks are now behaving with utter impunity as they know nothing will happen, meanwhile other teams are being penalised for everything even when it is the referees fault.

accies1874 Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 MacKinnon deserves that. A stupid, dangerous challenge that ended up stopping a great chance for us. Did Stewart headbutt Martin in that tangle on the halfway line? Never mind, just watched it back. Good to see Stewart going for the full-on headbutt rather than the wee flick that usually constitutes a headbutt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killiekranky Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 Kilmarnock are certainly flavour of the month with the SFA just now, a more paranoid club might feel they were being singled out. Fix the SFA ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Estragon Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 Both justified. Unfortunate, because Wednesdays game is ideal for Stewart - his old team at home on Sunday too. Two shit games to lose him for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacKinnon's tackle was a shocker but I thought if the ref took action which he did with the yellow that was it. If the referee claims that he didn't see the full extent of the incident then they can still charge the player. I thought it was an awful challenge and deserved a red card, but I'm uncomfortable with these sort of decisions being picked up by the compliance officer. It wasn't deliberate and it wasn't such an excessively awful foul that merited more action. Stewart's is fair enough I think, although I don't think he would have been punished if it hadn't been mentioned on Sportscene. A decision for the club on whether to contest it and have him eligible for tomorrow, or just accept the ban so that he'll be back for Hearts.

killiemilan Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 Does the compliance officer watch every minute of every game from all available angles?I would be astonished if they do and I suspect that they rely on the BBC to do the hard work highlighting what "deserves to be looked at". In my opinion they either watch every minute of every game or allow certain things to go but they cannot just allow the media to highlight what in their opinion is in need of retrospective action.
