John Beaton has been named as the referee for this weekend's match between Rangers and Celtic.
The Scottish FA official will be assisted by Daniel McFarlane and Dougie Potter who will run the line at Ibrox.And Nick Walsh will take on VAR duties with Frank Connor his assistant in the booth.This will be Beaton's first time in charge of the fixture this season with Don Robertson the referee for the meeting on September 3 last year and Nick Walsh in the middle for the contest on December 30.
And in the first meeting between Celtic and Rangers this season - a 1-0 win for the visitors due to a Kyogo Furuhashi strike at Ibrox - a Rangers strike was ruled out for a foul on Gustaf Lagerbielke by Cyriel Dessers. Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
