You'll probably discover that he is also the Mansfield coach driver  ;) :D

Keep your discipline lads because that shower will definitely be out to antagonise us...

Lets just hope that fkn clown Jellypoop or whatever his name is doesnt come on here again.

Wouldn't logic and best standards suggest that one ref should not do the honours for the same fixture twice in the same season.  It just seems a bit iffy to me and surely something that could have been avoided.

I would really appreciate ATSs view on this.

BSP Fixtures are refereed by 'Panel' Officials.

All of these are (at least) National List Assistants with some being Elite List Assistants.

They are appointed to Referee Matches only when not required by the higher level competition.

As they are not 'full time' officials there is still a need, when appointing them, to consider the geographical considerations. e.g Mr Harrington who resides on Teeside should not, in all fairness to both himself and the Home team paying the expenses, be appointed to a game at Crawley or Eastbourne, not even on a Saturday let alone a midweek.

So you may find yourself looking at a limited number of options.

There is, per se, nothing wrong with any Official doing both 'legs' of a fixture anyhow. Would we be quite so vociferous in our observations had circumstances been different with regard to the first fixture?

Oh and by the way I seem to recall that, irrespective of the opposition,  both dismissals were entirely correct and, in the main were accepted as such, even on here.

I had a good view of both dismissals and we can have no complaints about either of them. I think what riled most fans present that day, were the two Mansfield 'dismissals' missed by the ref.

Irrespective of the sensible (and correct) posts previously seen on this thread, I would like to state that I hate Mansfield and if we could only win one game all season, this would be the one!!

Totally agree - the problem with Mr.Harrington wasn't what he saw, but what he DIDN'T ! We can only hope he was just having an off day, and be grateful we haven't got that bell end from Yorkshire again.

Phil, Tony Harrington is not tonights official. I merely used him as an example of geographical considerations
