Levein blasts referee on red card
Dundee United manager Craig Levein
Levein was stunned to see Wilkie sent off at Falkirk
Dundee United manager Craig Levein condemned referee Chris Boyle for sending off Lee Wilkie in his side's 2-0 defeat at Falkirk.

"He was entitled to go for the ball - and he won the ball," Levein said of Wilkie's second yellow card.

"It was a scandalous decision. Lee won the ball. How he could send him off I just have no idea.

"It was right in front of the Falkirk crowd, they made a noise and then he reached for his pocket."

Levein vented his anger at the official from the touchline at the time - and then claimed he had been treated "like a schoolboy" in return.

"They try to make you feel like a schoolboy. He was standing beside me, walked away and then said, 'Come over here'," he added.

"What is that all about? The whole point is to treat each other with respect. That's not respect."
