To no give the corner is pretty clever really 

How so? So that he could say he didn't see the handball? It would have been cleaner for them to cheat by Walsh saying he saw the contact but didn't deem it a penalty, give a corner, and let Collum agree with that.

All Collum said was the handball did not warrant an on field decision. Collum can't change the decision of a goal kick to a corner.

No but the goal kick most likely means Walsh didn't see it. He thought it came off a Rangers player.

Collum saw and and decided he could justify it rather than make it a review for the clear and obvious error almost every commentator believes it to be.

Gives Walsh an out but surely collum is fckd for asking Walsh to look at potential handball?

Collum is fucked for looking at that and saying there was no need for an on field decision. 

Clearest handball you will ever get in the game and he is attempting covering it up again by the "natural position" excuse after covering it up in the first place with the offside via Sky. 

He knows he's fucked.

Yup. Walsh thought it came off a Rangers player. Collum gets a reply and says there's no handball.

I read that as the first 4 bullet points refer to incidents where penalty kicks have been awarded by the onfield official, the final one relating to a penalty offence not having been awarded.

Our situation relates to offside involving a penalty not awarded which doesn't sit in any of those bullet points. Which ties in more I believe with Conroy who was talking about the handball being the consideration of var not the offside. And would explain why offside apparently wasn't considered at rhe incident as alleged by Crocker and Rangers in our statement.

Over and above all that though we still need to understand why Collum saw a handball Walsh apparently didn't and made his own alternative conclusion to what almost everyone considers to be a clear and obvious error by Walsh.

 

They go back sequentially to the offside if the handball is deemed an offense, and has therefore become a penalty incident. Bullet point 1 is applied.

Which is why it would never have become a penalty. Offside is only ever addressed after the handball is considered in an incident like that.

The offside wouldn't be considered if it's deemed not a handball and therefore not a penalty incident because offsides aren't assessed by VAR for non-serious incidents. In this case effectively a goal kick.

I couldn't really hear the commentary at the time. What was it he said?

When they showed the ‘offside’ at start of second half, Crocker said something like “it would have been good to have had that at the time” therefore that wasn’t reason for penalty not being given.

I hope so and others then think twice about lacking neutrality.

So why did Collum release a VAR Offside image and graphic to Sky after they themselves had looked at the incident?

If there was no issue with the handball, which Collum is trying to say, then why is he giving Sky the offside graphic? 

He tried to cover up his fuck up with the offside then after the match covering it up with another excuse of the "natural position".

This is clearly incompetence and highly suspect and the real reason him and the SFA are flapping.

No idea. That's kind of the issue. The issue isn't is getting a penalty, it's the weird behaviour that looks like some kind of cover up of a bad decision not to declare it a handball.
