Rangers row ref John Beaton will take charge of Celtic’s clash with St Mirren at Parkhead while Kevin Clancy has been handed the Ibrox side’s trip to Dens Park in a full Scottish Premiership midweek card.
Beaton and VAR Alan Muir as well as his Clydesdale House assistant Andrew McWilliam came in for fierce criticism following an action-packed clash in Govan with the Light Blues running out 2-1 winners following two last-gasp goals, including a penalty from James Tavernier – the Rangers captain’s second spot kick of the afternoon after an earlier miss from 12 yards.
Jambos gaffer Steven Naismith was seething over the call to award the penalty for a shirt pull by Peter Haring on Connor Goldson, claiming there had been an earlier foul which was missed.
Hearts fans have also flooded social media in a rage over Beaton penalising Kenneth Vargas for obstruction after he went down under a push from Rangers substitute Ross McCausland.
