stewarty66 Posted October 23, 2019 Report Share Posted October 23, 2019 SFA referee's chief John Fleming has passed away. Is this the guy that wrote to Dundee Supporters Club about the infamous Jordan Jones penalty incident? https://stv.tv/sport/football/1441800-sfa-s-head-of-refereeing-john-fleming-dies-aged-62/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stewarty66 Posted October 23, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 23, 2019 (edited) Sorry to hear of someone passing away at such a relatively young age and feel for his family given it was from a prolonged illness. (Takes large breath). However he has overseen the promotion/ fast tracking of some of the worst referees I have ever seen in nearly 50 years of watching Scottish football. I think its fair to say his time in charge wasn't very successful. Edited October 23, 2019 by stewarty66 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Wrangodog Posted October 23, 2019 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 23, 2019 Don't think this is the time to have a go at him, it was well discussed at the time. The guy has stood up to a terminal illness stoically, the Dundee game seems insignificant now. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
