Malky Mackay blew his top at VAR and claimed it’s being used to a different standard by Scottish refs than elsewhere in Europe.The Ross County boss has demanded a summit to iron out the system’s flaws after watching his side lose 1-0 at Motherwell to a penalty awarded NINE minutes into stoppage time after VAR penalised Keith Watson for handball.

Mackay claims even Motherwell skipper Liam Kelly told him he couldn’t believe the spot kick was awarded. It only added to the Staggies boss’ fury after his side had a penalty awarded and overturned after a four-minute delay following Calum Butcher’s challenge on Connor Randall - despite Mackay claiming ref Euan Anderson initially told him he thought it was a stonewaller.VAR Willie Collum called Anderson to the monitor on both occasions and the ref overturned his initial decision.

County, who also had Owura Edwards red carded in injury time, remain second bottom and two points clear of Dundee United with two games to go.And on the 48th minute spot kick that was overturned Mackay blasted: “The ref thinks it was a stonewall penalty and those were his exact words because I went on to the pitch at the end to ask him.“My bugbear is that he made a genuine error by not letting the move finish because he blows the whistle before the ball breaks to George Harmon.
