I remember a previous Gers game at Shielfield Pk, played well over a year ago, when at 0-0 Berwick Rangers had a corner on Rangers left. Corner taken and the a Berwick defender scored with a free header. Suddenly the ref had disallowed the goal for some reason! It was televised on Sky Sport and the commentators quickly analysed it, thinking there was a push or some logical reason why this ref disallowed the goal - nobody touched anybody else and the goal was good and there was utter silence in the SS studio until the main commentator finally piped up, 'There was nothing wrong with that goal, I'm baffled'!! Come to your own conclusion re that one as well!
One of the worst incidents of all time in Scottish footie was in approx. 1986, again a Rangers match and this time v Dundee Utd at Tannadice, when an on fire tangerine team scored 3 x disallowed goals (offside) and every one of these goals was shown on bbc sport to be onside. The referee, a guy named K O'Donnell, was discreetly removed from the SFA list within a fortnight following this match. Come to your own conclusions re that incident as well!! It's about how football leagues can be won, particularly when it can become a tight end to the season!!!
