Go on then ... for my "enemies" in the West Stand I will go for the dizzy heights of 3 which in my world means an almost flawless performance !

3 - I repeat - 3

4. One of the better refs we've had this season. My major grouse was that he didn't book their 7 who committed a cynical foul then did the dying swan act.

Also thought their 15 should have had a straight red for kicking May off the ball but he did send the offender off.

definitely one of the better refs didn't seem to like playing the advantage though

4 from me. Didn't do much wrong and nothing cost us.

A 3 from me, head and shoulders above the last few refs we've had

As well as the ref I thought the Lino on the west side had a good game as well.

He actually tried to assist the ref, unusual these days.
He did miss a blatant foul on us in the first half that the ref gave.
But overall probably best for a long time.
Maybe a decent ref makes life easier for linos.

The west stand lino also missed the wrestling on Baudry from a corner which ended up with him being thrown to the floor clear pen in mine and Frenchies opinion.
Other than that he did OK

Despite the supposed "crackdown" on wrestling at corners and free kicks very few officials seem willing to award penalties, even in very blatant cases.
