PGMOL release statement

Page 2 of 2

posted on 10/4/23

PGMOL should be disbanded and anyone associated with them retired permanently from football officiating. Time for a new start and a new direction. They're utterly useless down to their core.

Robertson grabs the linos forearm, the lino tries to shrug it off and catches Robertson in the process. Robertson proceeds to be a whiny little bītch.

Much ado about nothing.

Maybe if players stopped abusing and confronting officials every time they feel hard done by, we wouldn’t see such actions.

If Robertson had done that to anyone in a bar or in the street he’d have had his jaw properly swiped.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
And, as you well know, the best officials are the ones that engage and explain with players and don’t just act the superior cvnt and fck off cos I’ve got the flag / whistle. I realise there are lines and that approach not always working with some players or situations but the limited look I got of it the official seemed in the latter camp?

It wouldn't happen so much if the officials knew their ass from their elbow. Some of the decisions we are seeing are inexplicable.

Wasn't even a foul. You see it all the time defenders brushing off opposition players with their arm. It is a contact sport and not every contact with the arm is a foul or yellow. State of the game these days, honestly. Man up.

Still bitter he played for your rivals, baz?

Robertson had been having a go throughout the game as I saw it, so there has to come a point where any official just thinks it’s not worth trying to explain to someone who a) doesn’t care what he says, b) thinks he has the right to harangue an official and c) abuse him at will.

I’m kind of surprised that an official hasn’t reacted before now and whilst the game has improved from the Ferguson approach to officials, this kind of behaviour seems to be creeping back in.

Something has to give.

Maybe a ban for the official, but a hefty fine for Robertson as well?

They should be allowed to iron things out themselves.

Let Robertson spew his bile and grab the official, let the official lift his elbow to him.

Let them continue to do that until Robertson gets ironed out.

the lino is greek, so the chances are he's gay. Fair play to Robertson if he's been playing hide the sausage with the lino's other half.

Maybe in Glasgow. In the civilised world we would just apologise for them touching us. Oh you bumped into me? Sorry.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Let me know next time you’re in a bar near me

Or are you kidding on that people down south don’t react when faced up to and screamed at with most expletives under the sun?

No, we’re educated adults.
