Angry Lomas slams referee over three decisions

Furious Steve Lomas slammed referee George Salmond for getting THREE crunch decisions wrong against Celtic.

The St Johnstone boss was aggrieved by both goals that his side lost and felt that they were denied a penalty when Thomas Rogne and Francisco Sandaza clashed in the penalty box.

Lomas was ‘mightily aggrieved’ by the decisions that went against his side who have an outside chance of clinching a Champions League spot next season with Rangers failing to meet the UEFA licencing deadline

“I don’t want to criticise referees but, in our opinion, we didn’t get the rub of the green,” the St Johnstone boss stated.

“Sandaza had a blatant penalty, the second goal is a free-kick on Liam and even the first goal came from a very soft free-kick.

“At 1-0 we were still in it but the second one was the killer. Liam was clattered and I don’t understand how the ref can’t see that free-kick. Celtic then break up the other end and seal the game.

“I am not here to witch hunt officials and they say these calls even themselves up, but I am not seeing it at the minute. Celtic Park is a hard enough place to come to and to try and get something.

“Celtic are a fantastic team and thoroughly deserve their championship when it happens, but we feel mightily aggrieved today.”
