Ramovic: Standard of refereeing not high enough
TS Galaxy head coach Sead Ramovic says he will not concern himself about judging penalty incidents that were not given against Orlando Pirates, as "the standard of referees is not high enough" after a 2-0 defeat.
Galaxy dropped to the bottom of the table after their fourth defeat in five matches following goals for the Buccaneers by Thalente Mbatha and Relebohile Mofokeng.
The Rockets finished the game with ten men after Kamogelo Sebelebele got a second booking towards the end of the encounter.

"I believe we came very well into the game but we made small mistakes in the build-up and we got two very cheap goals," Ramovic told SuperSport TV.
"But I don't want to take any credit [away] from the opponent, it's a very strong team, very good players, nice beautiful club, top coaching staff.
"But we conceded goals we should not. After 1-0, we knew they would go back and wait for counter-attacks and let us, this is what happened, we had some chances we could score but we didn't and it is not easy of course.
"I also have to give credit to Sebelebele, yes he got a red-card but he's a top player, very great professional player, he will be back after two games. He played an outstanding game, all in all, it should not be but we will not feel sorry for ourselves, we played a very good game and we will just continue to play well,.
"If the results don't come you don't worry about it because you will get the points. If you play badly and you lose, then you should be worried. I can promise the supporters, a big thank you to those who came in numbers, that we will collect the points, and we will qualify for the top eight.
"Yes it looks bad but we have to stay positive, why? Because we're training well, we're playing well, the results will come absolutely, no doubt about it."
The former Wolfsburg goalkeeper also opened up on penalty claims that did not go Galaxy's way, both on the stroke of half-time and in the last minute and also complained about playing too many away fixtures in succession.
"I also have to see in the first-half, maybe it's a penalty, I don't know. I have to see it, from my side it looks like it is. But of course I know the standard of the referees here is not high enough, there's no point to talk about it," Ramovic added.
"We have to look at ourselves and again, yes we're in a difficult situation, especially I have never seen that we have to play seven away games out of eight, I have never seen this in any other league.
"But okay, we take it like it is, we have now three away games, crazy but we will collect the points, no problem at all," the 45-year-old mentor added.
