Another Bad Show

Dundee Utd v. ICT And so to Eddie Smith. He can be a bit card happy at times, but seemed to have "left" his yellow card in his dressing room for the first half.

He started off pretty well, though and was quick to stamp out any early signs of trouble. However, as the game progressed, it was obvious that he felt the need for Scotland's two main hopefuls for the Commonwealth Male Synchronised Diving Team, to get as much practice as possible. Despite several efforts to con decisions, neither Barry Robson nor Lee Miller were carded for their efforts. On at least two occasions they merited a "9". Come on Eddie. As for Mr. Fernandez, it was obvious that he would attempt to kick everything that wore an ICT jersey. When his booking finally arrived, much to the delight of the sizeable travelling support, the ref took about 3 minutes to point to all of his previous misdemeanours. (Note to self: That explains the injury time.....)

Over the piece, it has to be said that the officials were above par. 6/10 on this occasion.
