I will praise him for letting the game flow, I would have stopped the game a couple of times if I was refine, he didn't fall for the acting of the players today.

Best ref think I have ever seen at the keepmoat some tackles may have needed a booking but at least he was fair to both teams which is all I ask don't think he got more than two decisions wrong

Very good referee. Allowed the game to breathe and got most things correct. Assisted by two competent linos for a change. Can we please have this trio more often?

If I'm honest, I think he favoured Rovers in a lot of his decisions, particularly in the first half, as a lot of our challenges on Brighton players which looked like fouls, went unpunished.

I remember just before half time, a big cheer went up from the Brighton end when he gave them a free kick on half way, so I think that they must have felt the same!
