Former refs can’t believe Connor Goldson keeps getting away with handballs in the box.
The Rangers defender has survived several spot kick claims in recent weeks without being penalised by either the on field whistler or his mate in the VAR studio. Ex-officials Des Roache and Steve Conroy have labelled him the luckiest player in the Scottish Premiership when it comes to handball calls, insisting he has a better save ratio than Ibrox teammate Allan McGregor and should be wearing a Harlem Globetrotters kit rather than the light blue of the Gers.
Goldson has escaped punishment after appearing to handle against Celtic, Dundee United and during the weekend’s 2-1 victory over Ross County in Govan. And Roache believes there’s not a league in Europe that varies so wildly on what constitutes a handball from one week to the next. “I think Connor Goldson has got a better save ratio than Allan McGregor this season!” Roache said.
