This may be a couple months old but it’s such a great insight into the thought processes that go on between the referees during games. Can you imagine this in Scottish football?

He played a whole 4 times for us in 2011.

Heard that before. So refreshing to see a ref who clearly respects the players, and has their respect as well.

Thought that was a bit sketchy myself

Can you imagine 'there's a foul there if you want it' and it's not given in an old firm. Christ the conspiracies.

Think he just meant so that he can see the video for himself and can then explain it properly to the players.

Do you want me to go to the monitor to sell it says to me that him walking over is to justify a decision that has already been made?

Live microphones in Scotland would never work, especially a Rangers game. To many secrets.

This will be part of the next TV deal-live mics and cameras in the dressing room at HT.

We should welcome this-it would drive performance if they were fully accountable 100% of the time.
They’re getting more than 1k a game ffs.
