Thought he was one of the best one's we've had for a while. Let the game flow, played some decent advantages and didn't blow everytime anyone got knocked over from a half decent physical challenge. Only down side is I can't blame him for our defeat

I certainly thought he was one of the better ones. The foul by Brown on Gooch in the second half was a borderline red- no intent to play the ball- but I can see why he settled for yellow. I also thought he was a bit slow getting to grips with Shrewsbury's obvious time wasting. He did play some really good advantages though.

The West Stand Lino missed one obvious offside by being behind play but certainly wasn't the worst I've seen.

Yes, agree with both your points TRB.  Although the three minutes first half added time seemed to take account of some of the time wasting antics, the four minutes at the end seemed to entirely discount time wasting.
