You lot need to be putting these comments on the match thread!

My one concern is what mad McGinnis tells his team if things are going wrong for his he tell to get into Celtic because I think he is more than capable of doing just certainly don’t trust him, Celtic need to step away and not get involved, the team just need to play thier own game and go for the win

The audio has now been released between John Beaton and Andrew Dallas in the VAR room from that Celtic penalty at Motherwell...

VAR: "Do you agree the arm is in an unnatural position? The arm is at shoulder height."

AVAR: "Agreed."

VAR: "The ball comes from a throw-in. For me, it's a penalty kick and an on-field review. Do you agree?"

AVAR: "Yep."

VAR: "John, it's Andrew..."

AVAR: "John, it's Andrew. Can you hear me?"

Referee: "Yes, I can."

AVAR: "John, we're recommending an on-field review for a potential handball penalty kick. Please make a signal to come to the screen."

VAR: "John, you got me? I'm on Sean's comms, can you hear me?"

Referee: "I've got you now mate..."

VAR: "I'm going to show you it on a loop, John. The ball comes from the throw-in, the Motherwell player jumps, his arm is above shoulder height."

Referee: "OK... and it definitely hits his arm?"

VAR: "It definitely hits the arm. We'll pause it at point of contact."

Referee: "OK, penalty kick. I'm awarding a penalty kick, no sanction."
