The SFA are set to hammer Kilmarnock boss Kenny Shiels for his claim that Andrew Dallas was manipulative and dangerous.
Shiels made those claims last week when a charge against him was dropped after evidence was produced of his confrontation with Dallas, son of shamed former ref Hugh.
After being cleared of the charge Shiels hit out at Dallas after being made to sit in the stand as his side lost to St Johnstone at Rugby Park.
“Things were fabricated against me,” Shielse claimed. “Things said by the fourth official were untrue and I had visual evidence on camera.
“I am disappointed he used the situation to justify me being sent off to get me into trouble.
“Someone has tried to impinge on my character big style. I am disappointed with him trying to get me in a manipulative and devious wat.
“I was totally exonerated yet I had to sit in the stand for a whole game. I brought in evidence to disprove the fourth official, who fabricated stuff to try and incriminate me.
“The fabrication was outrageous at least four different things that were said about me but he wasn’t aware I had evidence on my laptop.”
Since that outburst the establishment network led by former ref Kenny Clark have been on the warpath against Shiels who will have to explain his latest comments to the SFA on January 10.
Referee spokesman John McKendrick has already responded to Shiels comments and wants the SFA to crack down on the Killie boss.
He said: “In our opinion, ill-founded comments reported widely in the Scottish sporting media in recent days have impinged upon the character of one of our members.
“It is unacceptable that a referee should have his integrity questioned in such a matter. To accuse a referee of ‘outrageous fabrication’ is totally unacceptable.
“For the avoidance of doubt, and in contrast to comments attributed to Mr Shiels, it should be acknowledged that on Thursday 13th December, and having digested the evidence submitted by Andrew Dallas, the judicial panel found Mr Shiels in breach of rule 203, misconduct at a match.
“Scotland’s referees welcome the swift response by the compliance officer and now place our faith in the judicial panel to adjudicate on this unprecedented attack on the integrity of a Scottish referee.”

Yet Chico green gets ignored for his comments? Usual double standards.
Not really a surprise is it. The sfas integrity called into question daily by they animals with no fear of reprisals, its disgusting. I would like to see a total boycott of everything sfa. Make players unavailable for internationals and even maybe refusal to take part in league cup etc
It would be wrong of our referee’s to pretend that nothing is wrong, that their integrity cannot be questioned under ANY circumstances.
It is quite clear, from several recent cases that there are many things wrong within the officiating department.
While on the park, we must accept all decisions, OFF the park they MUST accept the errors not only MUST be corrected but SEEN to be RESOLVED properly.
Apart from Steven Craven who was innocent, I don’t think many of our officials are being reprimanded far less dealt with in the proper manner.
Do our referee’s think they should be above reproach, it’s a difficult job but made more 10 times more difficult if they do not accept they also make mistakes.
I’m amazed by Kenny Clarke’s comments. Shouldn’t his biggest concern be that one of his members may have told lies and fabricated evidence.
But, of course, going on his past attittude towards truth and integrity among referees, maybe I’m just being silly.
Why no walkout/strike by those same referees on this occasion? Shiels is only saying what we all know in Scottish football about the refereeing standards, and what he said is far more inflammatory than anything ever attributed to Neil Lennon or Celtic, yet not even the hint of a walk-out? Too busy looking after their Christmas bonuses?
no point in trying to get anything done by these clowns, its the annual sfa christmas party at the orange lodge today, the referees annual party tomorrow, guest speakers andy “flying pig” goram, John “pieman” Broon, and honest hugh dallas, Headline act is the hillarious stand up chuckles green
I can’t stand Sheils. But for the sfa to ignore what is clear public knowledge is simply wrong. The “beyond reproach” stance of the refs and sfa in general cannot continue if they really want the game sorted out in small minded Scotland. They sat back in full knowledge that their establishment team went about their business in a corrupt fashion. Yet they continue with no lessons learned, to turn a blind eye to their problems. In case they are unsure, let me help. The sfa are corrupt.
They allowed their establishment team to be corrupt. They put the most biased and bigoted ref in history in a position of power until he was exposed and had to be relieved of his duties to avoid further exposure of others in the organisation. They bent over backwards to protect Dougie McDonald and punished the one ref who showed backbone and integrity by telling the truth, Stephen Craven. They staged a hate campaign against Neil Lennon hitting him and goading him at every opportunity.
They ignored all wrongdoings by McCoist, clearing him of all things done and said, and continue to do so, and all that for Third Division manager of a Third Division club in its infancy! They ignore racist and bigoted claims from Charles Green, yet they want to make an example of a SPL manager who stands up with total proof of another exposed cheating ref! This board at the sfa still have an agenda and will not stop until the game in Scotland is not only dead, but buried too. They wonder whythe Scottish game has sunk so low! They took it their! Punish the crooked, biased and bigoted refs. Grow a pair!
That pretty much sums it up i would say
Nothing I need to add to that Joe, and a vote of “no confidence”, should be called for immediately.!
If I buy anything with SFA on it will be from a charity shop!
great post joe – 100% correct.
No human being is infallible. Fact.
Totally correct Joe and on snide last night the bhoy Robert’s call was immense. The governing body, referees and hacks in this backwater invent their own rules and version of the truth when it comes to the former iilegal club! Our great club/culture cannot play here any longer and should appeal to depart on the proved corruption of last few years. Forget this “where will we go nonesense ” time for Lawwell and Desmond to be proactive and make it happen. We deserve better much better and need a future elsewhere to flourish as the great institution we are. Our association with this association is well and truly over. Hail Hail
