Lunny’s new role will see him review incidents that have been reported from across the game in Scotland and refer cases to the SFA’s Judicial Panel, where it is deemed that a rule breach has been committed which has not been picked up by the match officials.
After being appointed Lunny said: “I am delighted to take on such an exciting and challenging role within the Scottish FA. Having been impressed by the changes to the disciplinary procedures in the summer I am looking forward to working in the unique environment of Scottish football.”
The 38-year-old was the Crown Office representative at the International Co-operation Unit, and was also a Legal Officer for the United Nations’ International Criminal Tribunal for the former Yugoslavia, working in war crimes prosecutions at The Hague.
