Josh Smith in charge at Elland Rd. Last seen in our away win at Blackpool which bizarrely followed his previous time, at home versus the Tangerines when he failed to send off Madine.
Totally agree with that. Didn’t get conned with the Leeds aquatic penalty box divers and kept the game moving. The new rules seem to be working for cutting out time wasting but still we have a lot of added time. If this was last season we’d be playing for another half hour in each half!
TBF our 6 minutes of added time is pretty low in comparison to others.. 8-9 minutes now seems to be the norm. Still, would have been far happier if we'd only had 4 minutes instead yesterday
Oliver Langford the man in the middle tomorrow. Last season oversaw both of our wins versus the Waterboys.
Graham Scott tomorrow. Didn't see him last season. Done 10 of our games since 16/17. 3 wins, 3 draws, 4 losses Memorable ones: - 21/22 4.0 home loss to WBA 18/19 Prem lost 4.1 away to West Ham then beat them 2.0 in the return 17/18 4.1 away win at.........? Where was it??? Oh yes, Dirty Leeds!!!
Darren Bond without hair band drops back into the championship at CCS for our game v Sheff Wed after doing a PL fixture last weekend.
3 wins and a defeat last season - the loss v the Jacks. He sent off Robbo. A draw v Blackpool the season before.
Aaaggghhhhh. The dwarf. I thought he retired after last season never to darken our skirting boards again. At least the damage he can do as 4th official is limited.
A relative newbie. Never darkened our door before. Only done 8 or 9 Championship games. Officiated in the Jacks 3.2 loss at West Brom recently. We usually get someone with experience for our derby games. Hope he can hold it together.
A real newbie. Only done 2 Championshop games including the Swans 2.0 win at Wigan last season. He is a fireman as a daytime job and played non-league football to a high level.
