REFEREES may have ruled out strike action in Scotland but McBookie reckon they could still be out for revenge following the decision to ban Dundee United striker Nadir Ciftci for just two games after manhandling an official.
With that in mind McBookie are asking how many red cards the referees will show this weekend. Six or more is the 2-1 favourite while it is 10-1 they show none.
McBookie spokesman Paul Petrie said: “The Scottish referees are clearly upset and we think they will want to stamp their authority this weekend.”
Red cards in Scotland (Saturday games only): 2/1 six or more, 7/2 Four, 7/2 Five, 6/1 Three, 8/1 One 9/1, Two 10/1 None.
