Direct answer
- The Scottish FA VAR panel rulings have involved multiple cases where Key Match Incidents (KMIs) or other VAR interventions were reviewed. In some cases, panels have found VAR decisions to be incorrect, while in others the on-field decision was upheld. For the very latest specific ruling you asked about, I don’t have a real-time update in this moment.
What I can tell you
- The Scottish FA (SFA) established a VAR independent review process to improve transparency and consistency, including an independent panel to review Key Match Incidents in the Premiership. This move aims to assess high-profile VAR calls with outside input.[3]
- In 2024-25, there were high-profile discussions around VAR decisions in matches such as the Old Firm, with clubs and the SFA engaging over alleged miscommunications and the criteria used for handball and offside determinations.[2][4]
- Recent reporting has highlighted that the KMI panel has issued rulings on Celtic-related VAR calls in some matches, sometimes overturning or questioning VAR interventions, and at other times backing the on-field call. Specific outcomes depend on the incident and the panel’s assessment.[8][9]
How to get the latest precise ruling
- Check the Scottish FA official site or their VAR independent review panel communications for the most recent decision: they publish summaries and sometimes full rulings or press releases after panel meetings.[3]
