ShedTA Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 The ref had an absolute howler, it was like he was making it up as he went along. I think PH had a bit of a selective memory in his post mach comments though, there were a number of big decisions that went against Rangers that could have made the game over and done with in the first half (very strong penalty claim, ref giving offside when 30 yards behind play (linesman didn't give it) so he didn't have to make a decision on whether or not to send the Falkirk keeper off for handling well outside his box). On footballing terms I thought it was a good exciting game, all of the goals were great and the atmospehere towards the end of the game was good (largely down to both sets of fans being absolutly raging at the ref). To be fair to Houston he did say the ref had some awful decisions in the first half some of which rangers should have got. But his comment that the ref probably cost them the game is pretty accurate.

But his comment that the ref probably cost them the game is pretty accurate. By that logic, the referee's inability to give Rangers a Pen and potentially send of their Keeper 'could' have cost them the 3 points. I can understand PH's issue, but, for the free kick, Law gets the ball, hits it off the guy who's momentum takes out Law. Get the Luxembourg, Israel and Malta referee's back again?

The guy from Luxembourg, Alain Hammer, has retired unfortunately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But his comment that the ref probably cost them the game is pretty accurate. Utter nonsense. The Falkirk teams inability to put a tackle in cost them the first goal. Poor goalkeeping cost them the second. Falkirks inability to clear the ball properly cost them their third. Self inflicted wounds that no amount of Peter Houston's inane ramblings can conceal.

sbcmfc Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Houston doesn't come across that well in the interview. Looked up the highlights. Good goals! Can see why he gave a free kick, but can see why Houston thinks it wasn't... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thewolf_1980 Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 Watched it on Sportscene last night. In real time, I thought it was a clumsy challenge but the replay shows that the Falkirk defender did get a touch on the ball before making contact with Nicky Law. It's a dubious call but certainly not the shocking decision suggested by Peter Houston. Four cracking goals in the game too, although the 'keeper probably should have done better with Tavernier's free kick. I can't comment on the offside/handball outside the box incident from the first half because the normally informative and fulfilling Sportscene highlights chose not to include it...

They're baffling. They chose to omit Andy Considine missing an open goal in the Dons vs Celtic game the other week. Baffling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimstroma Posted October 5, 2015 Author Share Posted October 5, 2015 Game should be replayed with a new Ref. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debian Posted October 5, 2015 Share Posted October 5, 2015 The more I see it the more it'd a free kick. Falkirk player only gets the ball because Law kicks it at him. The Falkirk players gammy follow through fouls Law. . 100% free kick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
