Another card happy one by looks of it.
He’s had four matches this season and dished out 19 yellows.
Last time he had one of our games was August 23 when we lost 3-1 at home to Notts County.

I'll go 3 , my mate asked me and I said 2 and he said I'd go 3 so voted by proxy
Time wasting / timekeeping terrible but it won't ever go away
He booked Crewe player for time wasting in first half and yet added nothing on
Second half added time was 4 but ball was dead for ages but he blew dead on time
Keeper as usual 30 seconds per GK and outfield players 20!seconds per throw in
Clever of their bloke to take a quick free kick with ball rolling KNOWING it would be called back
As usual we are paying money to watch grown men stretch and surpass themselves in old and sometimes new inventive ways to restrict the time spent playing

Couldn’t go higher than a one due to the time wasting and not giving us anything when there were 2 good pelanty shouts
-
First half I thought he wasn’t to bad however 2nd half he became the standard below average league 2 ref
2 from me
-
Compared to some recent ones he was decent. He certainly wasn’t helped by the west stand Lino who was either bent blind or totally inept. I thought 2 and a half was about right but downgraded to two for him not clamping down on the time wasting especially by the keeper.
They were pinching yards at every throw until the ball rolled out next to the corner flag and then took the throw almost level with the six yard line for a better angle.

Agree , it's awful to watch.
I'm not mitigated that we would do it when we are in front. Whoever does it we've paid to watch a game of football , not people showing us winning is everything by attempting not to play
-
With a new yard stick for 0 this guy was defo a 2. West Stand lino was bad but the ref wasn't horrific.

I thought that it was quite refreshing to kick off bang on 3pm, no stoppage time in the first half and start the second half at 4pm.
4 minutes added time in the second half was also reasonable when we didn’t see the physio at all and most substitutions were multiple for both teams.
The ‘experiment’ last season of adding on time for every little thing resulted in excessive stoppage time which I’m glad has been ended.
There will always be an element of time wasting, but all teams (including Rovers) will continue to waste time when the game is close and they are under pressure. We just don’t see it when Rovers do it!

Their keeper took it to the nth degree yesterday and got away with it. I have seen quite a few keepers carded for less.
-
He twice took 50 seconds to take a goal kick.
-
The people near me are fed up of me calling " Ball out on 18 seconds and then watching saying 48 seconds .... another 3 goal kicks and it will be full time
Keepers must have inbuilt clock as they regularly get exactly 30 seconds and it's pathetic
We are paying NOT to watch a game
