CHARLIE NICHOLAS has rubbished reports that Rangers are currently getting more refereeing decisions than the rest of the Scottish Premiership.
It comes after social media was full of conspiracy theories following Rangers' late penalty against Aberdeen last week.
And Nicholas hopes the introduction of VAR to Scottish football will help to eradicate any talk of refereeing conspiracies.
Writing in the Daily Express, he said: "I don't believe for a minute these refereeing conspiracies.
"I hear a lot of people say Rangers get everything just now. They get the decisions because they are winning just now. It is the same when Celtic are winning.
"That is always the way it is and has been for the two Glasgow giants.
"The rest of our clubs are playing catch up and that is where VAR could be a big benefit to them and officials.
"It won't help the conspiracy theories because it will be the VAR officials who will then be hit with the accusations.
"If we want to move our league forward then we need to bring in the likes of VAR technology.
"It would also make very good television drama as well and adds to the spectacle.
"I was in favour of VAR in my final year at Sky Sports.
"I think Scotland must take it because when there are big games then you get big issues and you will get all these conspiracy theories."
