The SFA head of referees took to the airwaves after releasing VAR audio from several Premiership incidents
Bullish Willie Collum insists it's INSULTING for referees to face questions over their integrity based on who they could support.
Collum responded: "First off all, referees need to declare an interest. We had a top assistant a couple of years ago and his son was playing for a senior club, even though he was playing for an under-19 club he declared that as an interest. Also, if somebody is working for a company that sponsors a particular club, these are the things we would expect the referee to declare an interest in.
"If somebody's third relative had a connection somewhere, or had a season ticket to support somebody - what I would say is, and I want to be really honest with people, when you are refereeing at the top level of the game you have a passion for it, you want to achieve well. Refereeing took me places as a young kid that I never dreamed I would go to.
