ex-montrosesaintee Posted May 31, 2015 Report Share Posted May 31, 2015 Impressed with his interview on the news the other day too. Saying how hard he takes mistakes, and how much he watches games back. Can't deny he's gone from the worst referee to one of the best we have. He got two rounds of 'the referee's a wanker' last weekend. One was for swanson's penalty claim, which was soft at best, and the other was for Scobbie's tackle which was world class, and Collum was MILES away. Both decisions were spot on IMO.

Brogan Posted May 31, 2015 Report Share Posted May 31, 2015 Credit where credits due, Collum reffed this well.No great dilemnas but its nice when the talk is about the players not the ref  Excellent refereeing. Didn't notice him until you had to which is the sign of a good ref. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a good ref, no doubt. Â His performance in our semi against the sheep was excellent as was yesterday. Â He was very good last week too, but got to disagree on the Swanson one. Â For me that was a penalty. Edited May 31, 2015 by jhq Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the MacLean dive was probably to give Collum a chance to give 'one of the two' having thought about it, but he was correct to book him. There's a lot of mind games between players and refs out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhq Posted May 31, 2015 Report Share Posted May 31, 2015 You could be right Monty. Â I just don't get this "soft" penalty idea. Â It's either a foul or it isn't for me. Â There's nothing in the rules that says you have to break a guy in two for it to be a pen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kilgour Posted December 19, 2015 Author Report Share Posted December 19, 2015 At the Falkirk stadium today gave the home side a spot kick for an offence that happened well outside the box.He was badly positioned and just took a guess.

Cagey Posted December 19, 2015 Report Share Posted December 19, 2015 (edited) I've not seen it but surely he needs the help of his linesman in that situation?Problem is the linesmen are white as seen today & every game. There was one today at main stand where neither the ref or lirsman made a decision & the n the ref pointed to a throw for us at the same time as the linesman puts the flag up for them.

Kilgour Posted February 15, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2016 Must be doing something right as BOTH Yogi & Del boy were seething yesterday !The sequel and he was even worse.He had 3 pen decisions (all wrong) IMHO missed lots of other things and just generally seemed to let the game go past him.Also embarassing.....the scabby goal nets with the gaping hole and dodgy knots and CHRISÂ Â SUTTONnuff said.

sixties saintee Posted February 21, 2016 Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 On the Ball yesterday, Michael Stewart and Charliie Richmond good first hour, Richmond gave a good insight into refereeing and why Collum gets all the top jobs SPFL gets paid by Eufa and how they are marked to keep them up there reckons he will get Cup Final get a few bob on it.

Tranmere Saintee Posted February 21, 2016 Report Share Posted February 21, 2016 I loved the bit where Richmond said he believes a few refs now get text messages at half time from a trusted friend to let them know how they are doing!! sixties saintee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
