Allan is stepping down after four years as head of Referee Operations
Crawford Allan has quit as Scottish FA head of referees, and will step down in the summer after four years in the job.
A Lennon Miller strike was disallowed due to a handball that appeared to strike the upper arm of Theo Bair, while at the other end Motherwell were denied a penalty for a similar incident involving Graeme Shinnie. “Crawford has been integral to that process – from feasibility, to training, to roll-out – for much of his tenure, and we are grateful that he will remain in place and provide continuity until the end of the season.
“We must work together to alleviate the unsustainable pressure on match officials and VAR operators, to remove the convenient blame culture attached to subjective or unpopular decisions, and to ensure more focus is placed on the entertainers, rather than the on-field facilitators. “Taking the role, after almost 30 years as a match official, including 15 years in the top flight, coincided not only with two years affected by the Covid pandemic but also the inception and then introduction of VAR in Scottish football.
