No evidence that Freeland passes WP:GNG; nothing presented in the article, nothing found in my searches except this Daily Record article. According to his World Referee page, he has only officiated qualifiers, youth matches and two first round UEFA Cup games outside of domestic level, which might explain the lack of coverage. Being the fourth official in a Scottish Cup final doesn't make him automatically notable either. A Google Books search only came back with trivial, incidental coverage.
