Steve Tosh works for Red TV but the former Aberdeen midfielder is adamant it’s not blind bias that has him scratching his head over the additional one match handed to Dons skipper Graeme Shinnie by the SFA.
It’s just utter disbelief that the independent appeals tribunal set up to consider Aberdeen ’s defence of the man, who was red carded in Dingwall on Friday night, was deemed to be frivolous with no chance of success, so his punishment was upped from three matches to four.
Tosh watched the match, and while he was unsurprised that Aberdeen lost their appeal, he was gobsmacked at the decision to heap an additional ban onto the Pittodrie skipper, who will now be out until the second last game of the season as his club chases a European bounty that could be worth up to £5m to them. He said: “I didn’t think they would overturn the decision. That would have made them look daft, particularly as it was a VAR job.
