John Beaton will referee Sunday’s Glasgow Derby at Celtic Park.

In March Brendan Rodgers described the Lanarkshire based official as incompetent following Celtic’s 2-0 defeat at Hearts with Beaton making big calls on VAR that led to Yang Hyun-jun being sent off and a penalty being awarded against Tomoki Iwata.

Those comments resulted in the Celtic boss getting handed a two match touchline ban, on appeal that was reduced to one match with Beaton in charge at Ibrox when Rodgers returned to the dug out for the dramatic 3-3 draw that saw Fabio Silva booked for simulation only for Beaton to discard that and award a penalty after he consulted the touchline monitor.

Willie Collum refereed the final SPFL Derby of last season with Nick Walsh in charge for the Scottish Cup Final with Beaton on VAR duty. During the summer Collum replaced Crawford Allan as Head of Refereeing at the SFA.

Andrew Dallas will be on VAR duty on Sunday with the fixture almost overlooked by transfer activities and European draws taking place on Thursday and Friday.

    Two Celtic players sent off. Straight reds both. Three penalties awarded to Sevco although they only had the ball in the Celtic area twice. Despite all this Celtic still gub them. Raging Sevconuts on the airwaves for a month saying how the SFA is run by the Papacy. Stranger things have happened.

    Any cheating from beaton our dallas then i hope our board stand up to these corrupt cheats because i can see our fans doing something if they cowards on the board stay silent yet again..

    Tells you everything you need to know about that snivelling little lickspittle. He’s worse than Beaton and Dallas, because he now has a chance to change things and bring integrity into refereeing in Scotland. His choice of appointments for the first derby, could have been a positive statement of intent. Instead, he makes sure the two most anti-Celtic with a plethora of ‘controversial’ decisions and honest mistakes have cost Celtic dearly in the past. He really is the lowest of the low. We don’t want an advantage, just a fair and level platform. Clearly, when appointed to the post, the SFA knew what they were getting. He’s like Samuel L Jackson’s ‘House Slave’ character in Django. A totally loathsome little c***

  • Stephen says:

    Collum’s fairly making a difference.
    Token Tim at work.

  • Tyrone9 says:

    Clemente said last season something along the lines that any referee that supported a team involved ,should not be allowed. I think his wording was far stronger ……anyone recollect.?

    Beaton should be nowhere near ANY game involving Celtiv or R2ngers . Beaton and several others btw AND nowhere near VAR also.
