Andy Halliday has sent a blunt message to former Premier League referee Dermot Gallagher over his Rangers penalty verdict against Kilmarnock.
The former whistler has a weekly segment on Sky Sports called 'Ref Watch' and regularly looks over the key incidents in Scottish football. He was raising eyebrows at the decision to award a penalty to the Light Blues in their 3-1 win over Killie, when Ryan Alebiosu was deemed to have handled the ball in a collision with Ryan Kent.
While Willie Collum's decision after a VAR check did surprise him, his opinion is worth a pinch of salt to the Hearts and former Rangers midfielder. Halliday told Superscoreboard that the evidence wasn't definitive and believes an even bigger call was missed on Connor Goldson as Kilmarnock pulled a goal back at 3-0 down. He explained: "My only issue with that handball is I think it is down to a matter of opinion, which VAR shouldn't be.
