Doubling down- SFA give Andrew Dallas back-to-back Ibrox VAR gigs

For the second SPFL match running Andrew Dallas will be on VAR duty for Philippe Clement’s side.

Next Wednesday the Ibrox Tribute Act visit Easter Road to face Hibs with Dallas watching the on-screen action just as he did when Kilmarnock lost at Ibrox on January 2.

That match was characterised by an incredible goal by Abdallah Sima which was impossible to carry out without using his upper arm to knock the ball over his head.

Shortly before that incident John Souttar almost fully removed the shirt of a Kilmarnock forward as they chased the ball in the penalty box.

Mention McLean and most fans instantly think of the 2015 Scottish Cup semi-final when Josh Meekings got off scot-free for handling a goalbound header from Leigh Griffiths.

The peak of Dallas’ refereeing career was awarding four penalties against St Mirren on a visit to Ibrox in February 2019.
