Welcome to "GET INVOLVED REFEREE," the podcast where we dive into the thrilling world of football officiating! In this episode, we unpack a wild match at St Mirren Park, filled with a crazy red card and an unfortunate penalty giveaway.

We seem to be grappling with interpreting the "Clear and obvious" rule, and we discuss the challenges referees face in applying it consistently.

One hot topic on our agenda is the rule regarding goalkeepers being penalised for coming off their lines. Join us as we dissect the nuances of this controversial regulation and explore its impact on the game.

We can't help but rave about Steven McLean's outstanding performance in a recent derby game. However, our referee, Steve Conroy, sheds light on an intriguing theory. He believes Steven's exceptional skills in player communication have affected his chances of officiating high-profile matches. Apparently, UEFA and the SFA prioritise card-giving over building relationships on the field.

Join us for an engaging and insightful discussion as we uncover the intricacies of refereeing in football. With expert analysis, captivating anecdotes, and thought-provoking debates, "GET INVOLVED REFEREE" is your go-to podcast for all things officiating.

Welcome to the "Get Involved Referee" podcast. In this episode, we explore the concept of a "clear and obvious" red card and whether referees are getting it right.

We also discuss the recent controversial incident where Rangers were not penalised despite a clear red card offence on Sunday. We ask whether this is a trend impacting the league's credibility and whether more needs to be done to ensure fairness and consistency in refereeing decisions.

Furthermore, we tackle the issue of referees getting involved in the game and its impact on the outcome. We reflect on Willie Collum's decision to send off a Hearts player against Celtic and ask whether referees should be more impartial and let the game play out without their influence.

Finally, we preview the upcoming big game at Ibrox between Rangers and Celtic and discuss the referee appointed for the match. Will they be able to handle the pressure and make the right calls? Tune in to find out. Join us as we explore the fascinating world of refereeing in football and get involved in the conversation.

Get ready for an action-packed episode of the Get Involved Referee as we dive into the highly anticipated Glasgow derby between Rangers and Celtic.

First up, we're talking about Don Robertson's Derby debut, as he stood in for the injured Willie Collum. We'll analyse his performance and discuss whether he's ready for future high-profile games.

But that's not all, folks. We'll also dig deep into the John Lundstram challenge and compare it to the Graeme Shinnie challenge. Did Robertson make the right call, or was it a missed opportunity for a red card?

Next on the agenda is the issue of diving in the game, with accusations flying around that Barassic was trying to con the referee. Steve has a different opinion, though. He believes that Borna Barišić caught his studs in the ground but looked for a penalty to compensate for poor play. What do you think?

We'll then move on to the handball rule, which has been causing confusion among fans and referees alike. Steve Conroy confesses that he's lost track of the rule after VAR intervened and gave Inverness a penalty against Falkirk in the other Semi-Final. Meanwhile, Des argues that the decision was never a penalty.

Finally, we'll wrap up the episode with a discussion on fans smuggling pyros into the grounds and the controversy surrounding Todd Cantwell's refusal to share water with Celtic player Reo Hatate. And to top it all off, we'll be making predictions on who should referee the final, with Des and Steve agreeing that John Beaton will be given the big game.

In this episode, First up, we've got former Grade 1 referees Steve Conroy and Des Roache, who are calling on the SFA to do the right thing and rescind James Jeggo's red card. They're convinced that referee Craig Napier got the call wrong, and Hibs' appeal on Wednesday should be successful. But with the panel having set a precedent the week before by throwing out Graeme Shinnie's claim for wrongful dismissal, will they find it in Jeggo's favour? Tune in to find out what Conroy and Roache say about the situation!

And that's not all, folks! We've also got former Rangers star Alex Rae joining us to discuss the upcoming Scottish Cup semi-final between Rangers and Celtic at Hampden. Rae is pumped for this season-defining showdown and thinks Rangers need to bring their blood and thunder if they want to come out on top. With Callum McGregor being one of the best players in Scotland, can Rangers nullify him and secure the win? Rae has plenty to say about the game plan and what Rangers must do to clinch the victory.

So, what are you waiting for? Tune in to "Get Involved Referee" for all the latest and most exciting news from Scottish football!
