Rovers vs. Salford City-20/8/22- Andrew Kitchen

[The Red Baron]

Referee: Andrew Kitchen
Assistants: Lisa Rashid and Declan Ford
4th: Alex Gray

3 .... did pretty well but let down by Assistants calling offsides wrongly ... and in the case of fouls handballs not venturing opinions at all

Like the Yellow at the end for dissent ... and me and Raithy have added time predictions and we went 6 & 7 at HT and 7 & 8 at FT so Ref was consistent there as well with 7&7

Getting worried about you DW , can’t comment because I wasn’t there but hope you’re not going soft old pal

[Donnywolf]

No he was good. Usually a 3 is as high as I go and I have to say he wasn't perfect and wasn't helped by (esp West Stand Lino) when Smith flattened Mitchell ... And I mean flattened. Like many others I didn't think I would see Mitchell leave the field a few minutes later applauding . That was a minimum Yellow

Ref did as Refs do (or should) a minute later when their bloke bought Tomlin's bait and gave away a Free Kick . Bloke clearly showed dissent and Ref clearly showed Yellow Card... Good on him. I expected no less lol

[Filo]

I thought the ref was poor, West Stand lino didn’t have a clue, failed to make a decision regularly  and got most of the offsides wrong

[5minstogo]

That's the second time that lino has been awful. Not up with play, not watching for throw ins and just turning a blind eye to a lot of things.

[Champagne Super Rovers]

I thought he was clueless as were the linos. How he didn't give a card to Lurch for his assault on Mitchell near the end I'll never know

[Panda]

The worst reffing performance i've seen for us for a long time. Truly abject.
