'Ref should apologise to Sviatchenko'
Celtic v Rangers (Sun at 12.00)

BBC Sport Scotland at Celtic's media conference
Brendan Rodgers says the Scottish Football Association's head of refereeing
called him this week to discuss the controversial penalty awarded to Ross
County that denied the champions a league victory last weekend.
Striker Alex Schalke dived in the box to win his side a
spot kick with just minutes to go with Celtic leading 2-1. His team-mate Liam
Boyce converted from the spot to earn the Staggies a 2-2 draw.
Don Robertson, who awarded the penalty, will be an
official for Sunday's League Cup semi-final between Celtic and Rangers at
Hampden and Rodgers thinks he owes defender Erik Sviatchenko an apology.
"I had a call from John Fleming this week and I
respected that - he didn't have to," said Rodgers.
"Don Robertson doesn't have to call me or apologise
to me, John Fleming did that.
"What I would say to Don Robertson is 'make sure you
apologise to Erik Sviatchenko'.
"We have to help referees and help them become
better because mistakes happen but in situations like that you have to get them
right or you lose the trust of the players."
Robertson will be one of the officials behind the goal
for Sunday's Hampden clash but Rodgers has no issue with his involvement.
He said: "Do I think he should be involved in Sunday's game?
Listen, we will all make mistakes but he just needs to get back out on the field
and as long as he doesn't make the same one as he did in the match against Ross
County, then I'll be happy enough."

Thoughts of the treble?
"No, not at all," says Callum McGregor. "We just take each game as it comes."
Good to have Scott Brown available?
"Yeah it's massive. He's a leader. You can see it every day. Even around here at training he sets high standards so it's great to have him available."
