John Beaton will be the man in the middle for Rangers against Celtic, but Nick Walsh has the unenviable role as VAR which might be real nightmare…
Gaze fixated upon a computer screen, a tight deadline to meet, and the horrifying inevitability that your stance won't be unanimously accepted.
Sure, it all appears fairly straightforward when the occasion of half-time or full-time analysis rolls around - but constant checks over every last incident throughout 90 minutes? No thanks. In the courtroom of Scottish football - I shudder at the thought - Beaton's account of events would face lesser scrutiny due to the instant reaction required and aforementioned pitch-level struggles.
In actuality, there is still incredible time pressure on those situated within Clydesdale House. There mightn't be the roar or collective groan of an impatient 50,000-strong crowd but those in the booth know there is not an infinite time to reach a verdict - after all, they've been in the opposite position.
Set aside the numerous incorrect verdicts reached in trial-by-VAR this season across the league season and just consider those in the two fixtures between Glasgow's title rivals.Back in September, those of a Rangers persuasion had been left dismayed by the decision to disallow a Kemar Roofe strike at Ibrox after a VAR review led to the decision to punish Cyriel Dessers for a foul on Gustaf Lagerbielke.
In a match, nay a title race, that could be swung on one decision - every single VAR intervention or the opposite will face intense scrutiny.Beaton will face the flak on the day for any perceived incorrect or controversial calls but Walsh - acting in the failsafe role as head VAR - will then be judged on his influence on the match.
