I'm not condoning it but does the ref need to give straight red. Perhaps yes, perhaps no Would you say the same if he called a Black player a "Black boy"? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm sure I've heard much worse standing pitchside most weeks. I'm not condoning it but the ref needs to have a word and maybe if he repeats then take more decisive action No. Rules are rules. There’s no equivocation on discrimination. Red card rightly issued. ”have aword”? With yourself, maybe. It’s awful for Brechin. They were holding their own, too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marten Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 What a disgrace from McKee, inexcusable and Brechin City will rightly be fuming with him for letting them down like that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps yes, perhaps noPlayers have to set the example, it’s taken a long time to change crowds attitudes to racism but it had to start with the players, we’ve all heard homophobic language on the terraces and some of us have probably used it ourselves in the past. The SFA and SPFL are rightly trying to change this and any player using it will likely face serious disciplinary action. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlansHotBath Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Rightly gone, and hopefully McKee gets a lengthy ban. There needs to be a zero tolerance approach to this shite. On top that, imagine being another one of those Brechin players, having to go back out in this important a match knowing a teammate has got you down to ten men for something like that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I certainly wouldn't utter that language in my work place or to anyone and a moment of reflection I now realise it's a straight red. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunning1874 Posted May 23, 2021 Share Posted May 23, 2021 Austin should have buried that. It's not looking massively unlikely for Brechin to sneak a set-piece goal here and Kelty haven't been great, but surely the man advantage is going to tell. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
