Referee for Final is

[Alex MacLeod]

Steven MacLean. This is his first ever cup final. So far this season he's officiated 32 games and dished out 4 reds and 81 yellows. 9 of the yellows went to ICT over five games and 4 to Aberdeen over 5 games. he officiated at one ICT v Aberdeen game where Williams and Draper were carded. None for Aberdeen.

He's a FIFA ref and comes from Rutherglen. And the cynic in me wonders about his love for his brother and how that affects his decisions. The brother being Brian MacLean Centreback for Ross County.

He's got a job to do. Every set of team fans will blame a referee if they can. If he didn't do the job well, he wouldn't be picked. :P Simple as really.

If we score more than Aberdeen then we win don't we?

[12th Man]

Thats not a problem his brother Brian is a good guy, anyway there must have been at least a thousand ICT fans at Countys cup final supporting a Highland club.

I dont think he will favor either team.

I'll need to get back to you on that one.

If he didn't do the job well, he would be a Scottish referee

Fixed that for you

Depends whether the SPFL change the rules before the final whistle.

I have no worries over the referee this weekend because his name isn't Willie Gollum.

Yeah you're correct: http://spfl.co.uk/news/article/officials-named-for-league-cup-final/

He'll be hiding in the dugout. (touch wood Steven McLean doesn't get injured cause John Beaton would replace him)
