If var had done its job properly, the St mirren player would never been sent off, Slattery would have had a yellow card and that would have been the end of it.

But they made a James Hunt of it and Slattery gets a 2 game ban instead of a yellow card, it really is a feckin shambles of an organisation, can you imagine the shit storm if it had been one of ghe ugly sisters players getting banned.

The clubs really need to grow a set and start challenging the whole set up, as its not fit for purpose.

The incompetence displayed by officials in general is off the charts. VAR has just given them another opportunity to display how clueless they are, and it can't be described as teething trouble, since decisions are getting worse with every passing week. If that lot can't play with their toys properly, they shouldn't be allowed any.

Deliberately feigning injury to get a player sent off should be a red card offence.

Referees might be incompetent and VAR might be a shambles but I doubt they are actively cheating like Slattery was.

Trying to twist the incident so that the SFA is at fault is ridiculous.

Our player cheated, got caught and is now being rightly punished.

Let it be a lesson to others, Motherwell players or otherwise that that kind of blatant cheating is totally unacceptable.

And BTW the sort of pathetic paranoia that 'it wouldn't happen to this team or that team ' is exactly the same justification the Old Firm use all the time.

Take some ownership.

Will Clancey and co be suspended for their cheating re Chamberlains red card offence on Just? Its on the audio!

Will Chamberlain be cited for a dangerous tackle? or is falling over to highlight an assualt attempt worse than injurying an opponent?

What about simulation to win penalties? 

At the time it could not be proved the saints player connected but now we are to believe he did not. 

Another example of over zealous authorities with a new agenda.

Irrespective of the rights and wrongs they have made up a punishment and hammered the small guys. No chance they do this to Celtic or Rangers.  

Going forward, Con the authorities and be hammered but the officials now need to be held accountable for their lack of professionalism and constant, apparently honest,  mistakes. 

The whole thing stinks. At this point of the season a quiet word in his ear and notice they would clamp down on it next season would have sufficed.

Another point. The saints player being sent off did not hinder them. They were already beat and successfully appealed the decision prior to next game. 

Players con officials at every turn. Where do they draw the line?
