Put me down for a 2 please

Started ok in First Half when the foul count was exceptionally low but went to pot in the second half when there were some decisions to make - most of which he got wrong.

If he'd have continued as he left the first half, he'd have received a 4 from me. However, the second half was comical at times with bizarre decisions being made.

Missed several important decisions for me, and made quite a few wrong later in the game.

It's a 2 from me too please!

The enormous and deliberate b-a-r-g-e by Parkin right in front their dug out and right in front of the Ref was as bad as a decision as I have ever seen

"Bluto" ambled about 3 yards and hammered our Player late and in the back and as blatantly and obviously as is possible. The Ref stood just 3 yards away made a gesture that they had had " a coming together"

A 1 from me. A slight improvement on the clown in the Yeovil game but not much.

He allowed Fatty Parkin to get away with lots of swinging elbows before finally booking him. Then the two decisions on Marquis were a joke. The first, a push in the back was as blatant a penalty as you'll see. You could argue that the second was a tangle of legs, but it certainly wasn't a dive. Having managed to keep a measure of control in the first half when both sides were trying to play football, he looked more and more like a startled rabbit once Newport got frustrated and started fouling.

I suppose like a poor standard of football we have to get used to a poor standard of referee at this level.

1 or 2..

Inconsistent - gave a foul against us (butler) for holding yet a few minutes later missed a similar foul for us.

Lost control in the second half when they were al over Marquis, yet he missed a naughty one by Marquis in the middle of all that which could have seen him being sent off.  Parkin should have gone too..

Couldn't tell for the second penalty from where I sat but from marquis' reaction I am not sure.. Bottled the first penalty claim which looked a stonewaller to me..
