Petition against compliance officer

[Bear all]

FANS RAGE SFA compliance officer Clare Whyte under fire as over 8,500 football fans sign petition for her resignation
The petition comes after the SFA judicial panel upheld a decision to hit Rangers No1 Allan McGregor with a two-match ban

MORE than 8,500 football fans have signed a petition calling on SFA compliance officer Clare Whyte to resign from her post.
The petition, on change.org, has racked up a large number of signatures in less than 24 hours.

McGregor will serve a two-match ban
It comes after the SFA judicial panel upheld a decision to hit Allan McGregor with a two-match ban.
The Rangers No1 was cited for his high challenge on Aberdeen star Lewis Ferguson during the Light Blues' 4-2 win at Pittodrie last week.

Whyte has overseen a number of citing incidents this season and the petition started by Jason Gillies, has called on her to step down or be axed.
After losing their appeal against McGregor's suspension, the Ibrox club called for a review of the disciplinary process as 'a matter of extreme urgency'.

McGregor failed to overturn ban after this tackle on Ferguson
Referee Bobby Madden took no action at the time but compliance officer Whyte issued the punishment after reviewing TV evidence.
McGregor attended the Hampden hearing in person to plead his case but was unable to get the punishment overturned.

The Ibrox club also failed in an appeal against the red card dished out to Alfredo Morelos in the same game with the Gers striker currently serving a three-game ban.
Whyte has had a busy week after a number of incidents.

Kilmarnock's Alan Power faced no further punishment despite catching Ryan Jack in the face with a high boot.
St Mirren's Paul McGinn also escaped a ban.
But Hibs new boy Darnell Johnston was banned for two games for his crunching challenge on Celtic's Emilio Izaguirre.

Edit. Now over 9,500 have signed the petition.

I see they left out the glaringly obvious incidents.

So far all compliance officers have been Catholic, three I think so far.

Aye I get the previous ones were - is it confirmed that the current one is and also a celtic fan? Or is she simply a useful idiot?

She would have to be such an idiot to NOT realise if she was being used as a pawn in a sectarian issue !

Right OK - so is she a mentally challenged or not?

Leanne Dempster now about to take on the SFA apparently and will be lobbying other clubs.

Bump for the petition.

Normally there’s a target number for a petition so that it actually goes somewhere like Downing Street for example .

I think it would need to reach 250,000 before that happens.
We’d need at least 50,000 for it to go somewhere.
