Colin Campbell Ref

Refereeing demon.

[Colin Campbell Ref @CCampbellREF]

@scottish_aff @GDSFC2008 The #Denonref has turned a blind eye to some dodgy kit in his time. I could live with number 22 with his black base layer and ankle socks or the Steins player wearing black cycling shorts but the Cambuslang number 9 would be getting told to get the coat hanger out his top.

@ClydeSSB Steven Dobbie? #Demonref had ref’d him.

[Colin Campbell Ref @CCampbellREF]

I’ve ref’d the lot of them. #Demonref

The first National Select squad has been selected by Head Coach Sean Simpson and his staff. The first camp will feature a bounce game at Bothwellhaugh on the 10th of December to which all are welcome.

Welcome to all the players called up! 👏🏻⚽️

@markmcguire04 Mid season is no time for a family holiday, that’s an attitude thing. Referees like the #Demonref left to take up the slack. No wonder the soles of my Samba are as worn as the badge on your top.

@KilwinningAFC @ScotAmFA #Demonref charges that for games on zoom.

[Colin Campbell Ref @CCampbellREF]

@bhoyintheburgh Nothing weird about that. I went to Naples circa 2008 and seen a local wearing a Diadora t-shirt. It wasn’t an official SFA one but the affinity was still there so I game him a nod, blew my fox 40 and flashed a yellow card at him. No words exchanged and I got on my way. #Demonref

It’s fun to stay at the…..

@scottish_aff @BrighillAFC @FairhillAFC I could have done that game #tapsaff and been the same colour. 🥵 #Demonref

@GavinRossPhoto @CCampbellREF A legend of the amateur game!!

[Colin Campbell Ref @CCampbellREF]

@stephencl8 @GavinRossPhoto I’ve always enjoyed the discussions. Especially their wee face when they realise I’m right. #Demonref

[Colin Campbell Ref @CCampbellREF]

@GavinRossPhoto Thanks for the pictures Gavin. Remember when all the young whipper snappers put their Fox 40s in the drawer for the summer that the #Demonref will continue to do games. It’s always good for your reputation to get pictures of me, especially in the cagoule.

The Demon Ref - Glasgow, June 2025

Colin Campbell, aka The Demon Ref, on the pitch at Stepford in Glasgow.

Good to chat with Colin yesterday and it turns out he and I were both in the same job in a previous existence…

[Colin Campbell Ref @CCampbellREF]

@AfcTollcross @scottish_aff #Demonref will take it.

@markmcguire04 sleeps in #Demonref pyjamas.

[Colin Campbell Ref @CCampbellREF]

@PapaLegba97 @SundayShoutsFC #Demonref would have done the game topless. A turd ain’t stopping me.

[Colin Campbell Ref @CCampbellREF]

@markmcguire04 I almost had my worst experience this weekend as well, Mark. I never had an afternoon game on Saturday but ended up with 5 so all’s well that ends well. Keep your chins up. #Demonref

[Colin Campbell Ref @CCampbellREF]

@EastKilbrideUtd I’ll take them. #Demonref

[Brian Whittington @JunoCasper17]

@CCampbellREF @PaulTheMediaMan How many games do you referee at once?

[Colin Campbell Ref @CCampbellREF]

@JunoCasper17 @PaulTheMediaMan I used to do 2 at a time on the pitches at Kirktonholme before the renovation. Spectators weren’t allowed to stand between the pitches so I had a good view. I just walked up and down between the pitches with the cagoule on. Most I’ve done using the tablet was 14. #Demonref

[Colin Campbell Ref @CCampbellREF]

@JunoCasper17 @PaulTheMediaMan That’s understandable, you’re probably looking at other refs and wondering how I do it. I’m not like these guys, I’m the #Demonref. You’ll see it soon with others talking about starting midweek games. My midweek games never stop. I never postpone a game for weather either.
