The reason behind Dundee Utd’s VAR rage revealed as panel made up of BBC commentators and Sky pundits

dailyrecord.co.uk:

The controversial KMI panel is asking commentators, reporters and pundits to make calls on some of the biggest decisions in Scottish football.Dundee United controversially released a statement last night calling for VAR reform and confirming it had withdrawn its representation from the Key Match Incident Review Panel.

It comes days after disgruntled chiefs at rivals St Mirren called for VAR to be taken out of the hands of the Scottish Football Association and to be run by an independent body.The SFA put together a regular five man KMI panel to review controversial refereeing and VAR incidents.

That consists of club representatives, former officials, ex-players and managers along with media figures. Record Sport understands that BBC commentators and Sky Sports pundits are amongst those who have been asked for their views, along with some of the written press, who all contribute towards the KMI’s findings.KMI was brought in to bring a bit of transparency to VAR and how it is reviewed, but has also caused issues with United publicly withdrawing their representation from it.

It comes after the SFA’s referee chief Willie Collum has had to make a string of apologies to clubs over a number of high-profile blunders.Some of the KMI's independent reviews have also left them at loggerheads with club officials and their issue is that some of these people have never played the game.
