Rate the Ref: Alan Newlands (Alloa Athletic - Home, 14th Sep 2019)

[TheDarkBlues]

The ref against Alloa Athletic was Allan Newlands.

How did you rate his performance in this game?

[Valentke]

Didn’t think there’s  was a pen and then the cammy incident . All you can do is laugh at how bad that decision or non decision was 

[Attilio]

Obviously came from the school of 'if someone falls to the ground it must be a free kick to them'.

[Notso]

That Cammy would pen decision alone means he terrible 

[Budgem]

He asked the linesman 'what did I miss'?

Fu#k knows what the response was but that was absolutely astonishing!!

[Bobby123]

That decision when Cammy was brought down was incredible

[8utters]

An abysmal performance by the ref.

Missed a foul for us at the Alloa goal, failed to book 3+ Alloa players, incorrectly gave Alloa the penalty and failed to give us ours.

That's now 3 penalties in the last 2 games we've been denied.

[Derry Drummer]

Apart from Cammy pen I thought he got everything spot on. Opinions I suppose. 

[surreydee]

The Alloa fans gave him dogs abuse when he went in the tunnell at the end .. not sure why ... we got a couple of soft free kicks out of about 50 bad fouls.  Not giving us a penalty was bizarre

Was maybe a little slow in booking a couple of their players but I thought he got their pen spot on. It was an honest challenge but the lad was caught as he shot. He let the shot go wide and deemed no advantage so called it back. Looked right to me. Not much else in the game for him to do...

Voted bad though because the Cammy pen was as stick on as you'll see. Cammy takes and age to shimmy two players off, sets to shoot and then gets clattered as he's about to basically pass into the net. One of the easiest pens to give I've seen in a long time. Bizarre.

sh**e

I thought that he was your typical average ref today. I thought he wasn't biased towards either side and was pretty much just shite either way.

Not sure that it was a penalty with Kerr, looked like it was more to do with the fact that Cammy fell over the ball... but I would need to have a look at it again before I vent my anger and disgust towards the bastard in black... or blue..... or whatever colour they were wearing today!
