Promotions for Ryan and Andy
The Association is delighted to advise that Ryan Milne has been promoted to Category 1 Development Referee, and that Andy Milne has been promoted to Category 3 Specialist Assistant Referee.
Sandy Roy, Association Manager, said of the promotion: “The promotions reflect the potential that both officials have to make an impact at the highest level in the national game and are due to the efforts being put in on a weekly basis, both on and off the field. This gives Ryan appointments in SPFL League 2, with possible further promotion to Category 1 in the fullness of time. Andy will be introduced gradually to Specialist Assistant Referee duties the SPFL Premiership.
This further demonstrates the opportunities available nationally to referees in this area”.
