If they had scored from a chance that they shouldn't have had the league would have essentially been over at that point.Not sure it was the worst decision of the season, but it was absolutely the most insane.
He'd need to be near 12 to have any chance of a suspension.You thinking what we're all thinking?
We should get the failed trialist on to discuss biomechanics and all that now.It was a nonsense. What was Butland supposed to do? Reverse thrusters after he'd cleared the ball?
Absolutely but in the very long list of bad decisions against us this year (many of which had to go to VAR for us to get rightfully due penalties) I'm not sure it was the worst..

That decision carried a lot of weight.
He got 1 recently did he not?His first of the domestic season.
He was thinking, How can I fkk Rangers over and try to give St Mirren an equaliser.Never seen such a decision watching football. What was Walsh thinking?
Didnt see the linesmans flag go up guessing it was the forth official as Walsh didn't seem interested as it happened.Did the linesman give it? Or did he just change his mind when he saw the man down?
Certainly didn’t look like he was giving it initially. Joke of a decision either way.
Watch yer watch and yer arse then mateBar 67
Kris Boyd didRangers should be making some noise about this. Irrelevant that it came to nothing, let these bastards know we’re watching everything.
That was his first of the seasonHow many bookings is Butland on?
They were right. If it was a foul it should have been a red card and sending off.I’d love to hear Walsh’s explanation of this. What was even more comical was the St Mirren fans chanting ‘off, off, off’ when Walsh gave the decision.
Benfica away the only other.He got 1 recently did he not?
Yip.Benfica away the only other.

He's not the worst one, still shite though.Really i thought he was our best referee.
We are about to make it through another season of these shite refs making terrible decisions, and none of them ever going our way.
No, there was no goalscoring opportunity because Butland had already cleared the ball long before any contact with the player.If its a foul then surely Butlamnd being the last man he must be sent off for stopping a goal scoring opportunity
Based on what law of the game?They were right. If it was a foul it should have been a red card and sending off.
Cheating! No doubt about it, he’s a filthy little rat. The decision was outrageous but these c@nts think they are so untouchable now and simply don’t care how blatant and bad it looks because there is little chance anything will be done about it.
Denying a clear goal scoring opportunity. If Walsh is saying Butland had to foul the player to win the ball that's effectively what he's saying. It's commonly referred to as 'the last man'. We only say last man because if there is only one player between you and the goals who fouls you then its considered a clear goal scoring opportunity and is a red card.Based on what law of the game?
How on earth can he be deemed to be denying him a clear goal scoring opportunity if he wins the ball first? You are surely at the wind up here?Denying a clear goal scoring opportunity.

Exactly, where was JB meant to go ...? He was in mid air ffs. Also if that was a booking, why was the big clogger (Bolton I think) not even warned about the two foot from behind tackle on DessersQuite simply outrageous. Clearly wins the ball by a distance then collides with the St Mirren player. A terrible decision from Walsh.
Not for me. Walsh has given a foul for a coming together long after Butland has cleared the ball away. There is no goalscoring opportunity.Denying a clear goal scoring opportunity.

I think we all know what the wee goblin bastard was thinking.Never seen such a decision watching football. What was Walsh thinking?
Spot on there, neebur.If its a foul then surely Butlamnd being the last man he must be sent off for stopping a goal scoring opportunity
He didn’t win it illegally. He won the ball legally then committed a foul off the ball - in the referees eyes. That’s not a goal scoring opportunity or a red card offence.But the ref deemed he won it illegally.

An astounding level of stupidity.Journalist in the presser actually asked St .Mirren boss if Butland should have seen Red, which Robinson said it wasn't a red card.
Tbh mate that's probably not even joking either. A disgrace of a decision. I actually thought to myself they would end up scoring from it fs."I know this is a fucking joke of a decision but I have to do something to stop these orange bastards taking three points"
