| 3. Author: wee eck Date: Mon 18th May 2026. 18:31 Wasn`t he the ref who ignored VAR advice in the recent M`well v Hearts match to award Hearts a penalty and stuck with his onfield decision, a decision which the review panel subsequently admitted was wrong? Reply |
| 4. Author: Dave_1885 Date: Mon 18th May 2026. 18:31 So they have appointed a ref that they openly admitted on Saturday made a massive error in a vital game for the league title the week before to the cup final…….. Brilliant 🤦🏻♂️ Post Edited (Mon 18 May 18:32) Reply |

| 6. Author: kelty_par Date: Mon 18th May 2026. 19:41 Yep, rewarding a referee who they`ve just said made a monumental error. Good stuff. Reply |
| 7. Author: Bandy Date: Mon 18th May 2026. 20:58 Problem is every single ref has had massive screw ups this season. Can`t go Beaton after the Nicholson handball. Can`t go Robertson given he had Celtics last game - even though he reffed it ok. MacLean or Walsh were the next in line. Reply |
| 8. Author: wee eck Date: Mon 18th May 2026. 21:15 I can`t see any official announcement that Steven McLean is the Cup Final referee. Does anyone have a link? Reply |
| 9. Author: par_33 Date: Mon 18th May 2026. 22:15 It’s posted on the SFA referee appointments page on the SFA official website. It’s quite a slog to find it though. Honestly don’t think McLean is one of the worst, he was in charge when we beat Hibs in the earlier round. Reply |
| 10. Author: wee eck Date: Mon 18th May 2026. 22:49 Referee appointments on the SFA website are a nightmare to negotiate now. Every single competition is listed and the professional games are just lost in the mess. It`s almost as if they don`t want us to find what we`re looking for! Reply |
