Rangers have condemned the abuse directed at referee Kevin Clancy while revealing the SFA insist the right decision was made over Alfredo Morelos' disallowed goal.
The SFA released a statement on Monday claiming messages sent to Clancy were "potentially criminal in nature" and included "threats and abuse towards Kevin and his family." It comes after Clancy sparked fury from the Ibrox side by disallowing Morelos' early goal in the derby they went on to lose 3-2.
Rangers confirmed soon after the game they had written to the SFA demanding an explanation for Clancy's decision and VAR's refusal to intervene. And a new statement reads: “Firstly, Rangers condemn in the strongest terms any abuse of match officials. We are all passionate about or game, but targeted, personal abuse of referees cannot be tolerated. The club can confirm the Scottish FA has responded with regards to the disallowed Alfredo Morelos goal, with the response claiming the correct decision was made.
