@MattHewitt69 I cannot argue that the standard has certainly fallen this season in all areas. I would be quite happy to see VAR disappear right away.

Unsurprising to see Michael Oliver and Anthony Taylor on #Spurs and #WHFC's matches as they bid to avoid relegation.

Sam Barrott will referee #MUFC's match at European-chasing #Brighton.

Steven McLean will take charge of his second #ScottishCup final when champions #Celtic face Championship side #Dunfermline at Hampden on Saturday. He was in the middle for Hibernian's epic 3-2 win over Rangers 10 years ago.

Matthew MacDermid will be on #VAR duty.

So it comes down to a final-day title tussle for the first time in a generation in Scotland's top flight. #Hearts looking to become the first team outside the Old Firm duo to lift the trophy since 1985.

Good luck to referee Don Robertson, VAR Kevin Clancy and the officials team.

@LewisConnell14 Absolutely mate. A huge decision that they’ve got badly wrong. He’s supposed to be the second best referee in Scotland too.

[Adam Higgins @HigginsAdam95]

This is seriously so poor I can scarcely believe it.

Nick Walsh will take charge of his eighth #OldFirmDerby when #Celtic face #Rangers at Celtic Park in the Glasgow rivals' final meeting of the campaign on Sunday, in the Scottish Premiership.

John Beaton, who refereed Rangers' 2-1 defeat at Hearts yesterday, will be on #VAR duty.

[Tameside Correspondent @TamesideCorr]

Cody Artwell has fulfilled a childhood dream by helping fire Droylsden to promotion glory.

The Bloods’ Butchers Arms ground may not compare to Manchester United’s Old Trafford or Wembley.

But try telling the striker, who thought he had scored the goal that would win promotion to the North West Counties League Premier Division, it is not somewhere special.

And try saying that to the child who walked past the stadium in awe at the noise.

A game of two halves at Tynecastle. #Rangers the dominant force in the first half but #Hearts showed great character to turn it around in the second and take another step towards the title. You always have a chance with a goalscorer like Lawrence Shankland in your ranks.
