Can’t seem to find who’s reffing tomorrow but on Saturday v Millwall it’s Leigh Doughty.
86 yellows and 5 reds on his 19 games this season.

We've had him 3 times. Away win at Preston, hurray, home defeat to Fulham and away loss at Wycombe, boo.

Can't recall any specifics. Not on the hate list yet but still plenty of time for that.

And tonight's ref is: -

Thomas Brammall

2 defeats this season, Wurzels and Blackburn.

4 games last season, 2 draws and 2 defeats.

Not encouraging.
 
Is there a decent ref out there? Even the sainted Michael Oliver mysteriously didn’t give Rashford offside from his VAR chair last Saturday.

I know. That was shocking. The City keeper didn't know whether to stick or twist. You don't have to touch the ball to interfere with play.

The Brentford penalty v Cherries was as bad. Toney links arms with the defender, drags him in front of the referee then falls over, when he instigated the wrestling match in the first place.

Toney was clever but surely VAR was designed to stop this rubbish not encourage it?

So we've never won a game with him in charge?

Hope he comes from Manchester - perhaps we'd have a chance then.

From and lives in Sheffield.

Loyal to all Yorkies or hates Leeds?

The latter I hope.

However, to have a ref in charge of a game when he lives relatively close to the home team is not on.

Why do we never get a south Wales ref? Are there any? Come back Clive Thomas!!!
