Colin Hardie-
Back to Ref League Table
- 28/04/07 Hamilton v Saints 188 (29
votes) - A bit over officious at times but held back on the cards
and tried to let the game flow
Brian Winter
Back to Ref League Table
- 05/08/06 Saints v Clyde 37 (11
votes) - Absolutely rank. Far too whistle-happy and with a pair
of linsemen who would be more at home in the circus given their
clown-like performance. Denied us a decent penalty and had some strange
interpretation of the rules.
- 10/03/07 Saints v Partick33 (8
votes) - Not brilliant and plenty of cards but at the same time
didnt take any crap. Too whistle-happy though.
- 21/04/07 Saints v QoS 81 (21 votes)
- Pretty pish with cards all over the place and almost lost control in
the 2nd half.
Scott
MacDonald - Back to Ref League Table
- 16/09/06 Saints v Airdrie 38 (12
votes) - Absolutely dire at times - petty bookings dished out and
a lack of control over some hefty challenges.
- 02/01/07 Saints v Ross Co 33 (7
votes) - Poor control and some strange decisions. Also for a game
with as many stoppages there were no cards shown which was strange.
- 17/04/07 Clyde v Saints 30 (7 votes)
- Another whistle-happy encounter with some petty freekicks and
inability to let the game flow
Charlie
Richmond- Back to Ref League Table
- 20/01/07 Saints v Airdrie 34
(8votes) - Had worse games and little real controversy. Seemed to
enjoy giving players tickings off though.
- 25/03/07 Saints v Scumdee 43 (16
votes) - Poor control at times but at least he showed the cards
when needed..
- 14/04/07 Celtic v Saints (Scottish Cup Semi) 85
(29 votes) - At times infuriating but at least awarded us some
freekicks. Should have given us at least one penalty though
Kenny Clark
(Paisley) - Back to Ref League Table
- 07/04/07 Gretna v Saints 38 (16
votes) - Oh dear. So much for the best that Scotland has to offer
as petty cards were dished out but more serious offences allowed to go
unpunished. Not very good.
Eddie SmithBack
to Ref League Table
- 29/08/06 Saints v Queens Park ( Challenge Cup) 44
(7 votes) - Nothing too controversial and played advantage
well.....
- 31/03/07 Saints v Livi 33 (14 votes)
- Pish. Dodgy red card for the Cat and daft offside decisions meant we
were against it most of the afternoon.
Stuart Dougal
(Burnside) - Back to Ref League Table
- 08/11/06 TFOD v Saints (CIS Cup)64
(11 votes) - Good solid game but suffered from some late flags -
not that we were too bothered given the final result.
- 25/11/06 Saints v Livingston 33 (6
votes)- Not a bad game but a couple of questionable offsides.
Craig ThomsonBack
to Ref League Table
- 31/01/07 Hibs v Saints (CIS Semi-Final) 160
(35 votes) - Dished the cards out early but kept reasonable
control of a pretty hectic encounter.
- 17/03/07 Airdrie v Saints45 (10
votes) - .Very poor decisions thanks to some dodgy linesman and
the card seemed to be dished out at strange times. Not his best
afternoon
Crawford AllanBack
to Ref League Table
- 17/02/07 Saints v Accies 45 (9
votes) - So-so game with some poor decisions but at least he kept
the cards to a minimum and let the play flow.
- 13/03/07 Partick v Saints 34 (10
votes) - Red carded Ando but totally inconsistent and almost lost
control late on. Very poor
Mike RitchieBack
to Ref League Table
- 23/09/06 Livi v Saints 34 (6 votes)
- No cards but let some wild challenges go and somehow failed to notice
a blatant penalty for Saints.
- 09/12/06 Saints v Scumdee 49 (10
votes) - Some petty booking and denied us a stonewall penalty
(again) but at least booked Rae to give us some entertainment.
- 02/03/07 Ross Co v Saints 25 (6
votes)- Lost control of the game early on and let far too many
OTT tackles go. Possibly should have red-carded McInnes as well and
denied us a stonewaller late on.
Stephen Finnie-
Back to Ref League Table
- 28/10/06 Clyde v Saints9 (10 votes)
- Absolute total and utter pish. A man so blind he was conned by some of
the most blatant crappy dives ever seen in the Scottish game. An
absolute disgrace.
- 06/03/07 QoS v Saints 14 (4 votes)
- Card happy by all accounts but I misses this one.
Mike McCurry
(Wegieland) - Back to Ref League Table
- 28/02/07 Motherwell v Saints (Scottish Cup) 76
(13 votes) - Fairly good game but let some soft fouls go. At
least he kept the cards to a minimum.
William Collum-
Back to Ref League Table
- 26/08/06 Saints v Ross Co 64 (10
votes) - Reasonable game if a bit late in dishing out some of the
cards. Didn't get any of the major decisions wrong which has to be a
first for a referee.
- 16/12/06 Accies v Saints 32 (7
votes) - Far too petty with some of his decisions and seemed to
dish cards out for the softer challenges.
- 10/02/07 Scumdee v Saints 76 (17
votes) - Some strange bookings but little real controversy with
either spot-kick.
Dougie McDonald
(Edinburgh)- Back to Ref League Table
- 03/02/07 Falkirk v Saints (Scottish Cup 4th Round)
40 (7 votes) - Good game and
nice to see a ref book someone for diving.
Craig Mackay
- Back to Ref League Table
- 19/08/06 Saints v Accies 29 (10
votes) - Correctly sent Scotland off but failed to give us a
penalty and after dishing out early cards looked like losing control of
the game.
- 21/10/06 Saints v QoS 91 (14 votes)
- Decent enough game but a bit late in dishing out the cards this time.
- 27/01/07 Saints v Gretna 118 (18
votes) - Only one card in a solid performance although there were
some soft offsides at times and Saints were denied a decent penalty
claim.
Alan Freeland
(Sheepville) - Back to Ref League Table
- 30/09/06 Scumdee v Saints 38 (12
votes) - An absolute stinker although at least Lyle's sending off
can be blamed on the linesman. Denied us two good penalty claims while
allowed McLaren away with umpteen handballs. This man is an arse.
Mike Tumilty-
Back to Ref League Table
- 22/08/06 Saints v Elgin City (CIS Cup) 37
(6 votes) - Some dodgy offsides but let play flow as much as
possible and got the penalty right......
- 06/01/07 Saints v Ayr (Scottish Cup) 29
(9 votes)- Very poor afternoon with some strange decisions.
- 17/01/07 Ayr v Saints (Scottish Cup Replay) 24
(8 votes)- Christ the man is a nightmare!!! Strange bookings,
whistle happy and when you dont know why your own side gets a decision
its time to really worry.
John Underhill
(Edinburgh) - Back to Ref League Table
- 08/08/06 Saints v East Fife (CIS Cup) 33
(6 votes) - Kept his cards in his pocket but some strange
decisions at times. We'll have a lot worse though.....
- 19/09/06 Saints v Dundee Utd (CIS Cup) 116(16
votes) - Decent enough game with cards kept in pockets and
refusing to give in to Kerr's penalty diving.
- 14/10/06 Saints v Gretna 44(11votes)
- Kept the cards in the pocket again and no complaints about the penalty
but really really poor at times.
- 22/11/06 Ross County v Saints 9 (2
votes)- Wasn't there so no comment from me
- 13/01/07 Livi v Saints 21 (6 votes)
- Abysmal performance in nightmare conditions. Allowed timewasting all
over the place and some heavy challenges to go unpunished.
Iain Brines -
Back to Ref League Table
- 26/12/06 Saints v Clyde 39 (10
votes) - Pretty poor control for most of the game although at
least the cards weren't flashed too much
Martin Sproule-
Back to Ref League Table
- 09/09/06 Partick v Saints 44 (7
votes) - Gave them a deserved penalty and some hasty offsides
against us but a decent game. Reluctant to dish out the cards which
helped as well
- 02/12/06 Gretna v Saints 17 (4
votes) - Missed this so no comment from me
Steve Conroy-
Back to Ref League Table
- 18/11/06 Airdrie v Saints 25 (7
votes) - Poor game with a shite linesman as well. Should have
red-carded Halliwell in the first half and generally lost control of the
play.
Chris Boyle-
Back to Ref League Table
- 15/08/06 Saints v Raith (Challenge Cup)22
(10 votes) -Absolute shocker with Raith allowed to escape
punishment for kicking the ball away and kicking a Saints player in the
head - the only real surprise was that Harty didnt get any penalties for
diving.
- 04/11/06 Saints v Partick 71 (13
votes) - Good game and kept the cards in his pocket as long as
possible. A couple of dodgy bookings but compared to some a real wonder.
David Somers-
Back to Ref League Table
- 12/09/06 Morton v Saints ( Challenge Cup) 18
(6 votes) - Dire - far too whistle happy and wrongly booked
Scotland for diving when it was a stonewall penalty - especially harsh
given Lilley had two warnings for diving with no card.
Chris Boyle-
Back to Ref League Table

Calum Murray-
Back to Ref League Table
- 12/08/06 QoS v Saints 18 (4 votes)
- We've had worse but far too officious and reluctant to punish some of
the heavy tackles. Still both sets of fans booed him at times so he must
have done something right.
