Manage episode 357302929 series 3439876
Welcome to the latest episode of Get Involved Referee! In this episode, we delve into the world of Scottish football, examining the ins and outs of the SPFL and discussing some of the most contentious refereeing decisions.
We start by taking a deep dive into the time between a foul taking place and the game continuing before the VAR check. What actually happens during this time, and why is it so important for the referees to get it right?
We turn our attention to a couple of specific incidents that have caused controversy. Should St Mirren have received a penalty in their match against Celtic? And why did Rangers receive a penalty in their clash with Kilmarnock? We take a close look at both incidents, examining the evidence and debating whether the referees made the right call.
But it's not all about specific incidents – we also take some time to discuss the wider issues affecting Scottish football today. One of the key topics we cover is IFAB's decision not to protect the safety and well-being of football players. What does this mean for the players themselves, and what can be done to ensure that the game is as safe as possible for everyone involved?
