       i say this as a Ranger supporter. John Beaton had no influence
       on the result. For me he had a good game, which meant it was
       under control at all times. When he needed to he brought the
       game back with FKs and then when he was happy with the tempo let
       it go again. This was his best performance in an Old Firm match.

       Some of the highest resolution clips I can remember seeing here
       😂
       Are there any you want to discuss specifically?  Some good pick
       outs for discussion, but the majority look to have been dealt
       with perfectly.
       I thought the team did well, and some of the teamwork was
       excellent.

       Neither side can have any complaints about the refereeing team
       yesterday in my opinion, though as always is the way up here,
       some on both sides will microscopically analyse every decision
       and decide he has favoured the other. Welcome to Glasgow :)

       Thought it was an excellent game which John Beaton contributed
       to, I'd say he's maybe overtaken Madden and Collum this season.
       He let minimal contact go and the players reacted to being given
       a bit of leeway and didn't take the mickey.  When he had to
       intervene he did it promptly and calmly and it never once
       threatened to blow out of control.  Very good.

       Beaton reffed it very well IMO.
       > In terms of KMIs:
       47' - I guess nobody cares very much here (ball to hand, close
       distance), but in UEFA that is a clear penalty (+YC) to be
       given, enlarging body surface to block a shot. With VAR in
       operation, if SFA follow the UEFA line, that would be a clear
       intervention in 2023, just to warn everyone north of the border
       that VAR would necessarily reduce attention on the officials.
       50' - Despite not hitting above the shin, some arguments for a
       red card here (flying tackle, 'not in control', high intensity
       on planted foot) but I'd go with Beaton, yellow was fine.
       75' - Sky pundits rubbished the idea of a penalty and rightly so
       for British refereeing, never a penalty. In UEFA, the incident
       is vaguely similar to the TURITA one at the start of the EURO
       which Rosetti assessed as a missed intervention, but there are
       enough arguments there to support play on.
       87' - Never DOGSO (too wide, players back), perfect yellow card
       decision.
       > In terms of other talking points:
       - I guess this match was of a lower difficulty than other Old
       Firm derbies in the past. That being said, in the second half,
       the game's difficulty increased as it went on and always played
       very passionately by both sets of players. Beaton did well, and
       any general praise from the media etc. is well-deserved.
       - Maybe he is slightly betrayed by his physical condition and
       general impression of a 'passive' guy, but I always considered
       Beaton a referee with a very good style of refereeing. To be
       honest, perhaps even UEFA Elite level(!). But, we know for a
       fact that he will never reach that come what may. I'd like to
       see UEFA give him more chances though!
       - After problems in the past with the men at Thomson's and then
       Collum's side, there were two (very) important mistakes by the
       assistant referees in this match (55', then 90'). It seems
       somehow that their 'linesmen' can't keep pace with their FIFA
       referees, whom's level I would generally consider to be very
       sound (better than 'our' FIFA squad in England I think, in terms
       of strength in depth!).

       UEFA has got the guidance wrong. Never a penalty for 'enlarging
       body' and never a penalty on 75 minutes either. UEFA need to
       grow a pair of wings. P.S. let's hope Scotland don't follow the
       UEFA guidance otherwise they're in for massive problems!

       Just to follow up on your points.
       Agreed with 47'.  Hard to spot in real time, but you wouldn't be
       surprised to see that given by VAR in UEFA competition.
       50' is definitely a caution.  Contact is on the foot/toes which
       given UEFA guidance (which the SFA follow) instructions are
       almost always a caution in such situations (see also caution
       against Motherwell played in Scottish Cup tie against Hibs)
       With respect to the two offside decisions, I'd suggest that the
       first call may have been deliberately held as the AR was
       unsighted as to the attacking/defensive touch and so held his
       flag awaiting confirmation.  If anything other than a goal kick
       is the result, then I'd have expected the flag to go up.  Or it
       was just wrongly held, but I'd be prepared to give the doubt
       given as we don't know (and all of us who have ever ran the line
       can sympathise with that potential position!)
       The second one is tight, and one of the calls that VAR will
       assist with come December.
