Lets hope we take him "out of the equation" early and for the whole game

That's not strictly true.
He's always dreadful  :)

He was poor but gave home a 2 as they should have a penalty but he missed it

When the officials came in from their warm up I realised it wasn't Salisbury. In fact it was Martin Coy. Another referee who struggled to control the game. We did dodge a bullet with the penalty he missed because that was a stonewaller. Unbelievable that he didn't book the Bradford man for a dreadful hack on Wilks. As so often the lino on the West was clueless.

I may be right in thinking that he didn’t book their player for the hack on Wilks because he had booked him a few minutes earlier for exactly the same thing.
A second yellow would have meant sending him off.

That's probably true. But. It shouldn't be that way. A bookable offence is a bookable offence, it's your own problem if you've already picked up a caution. It irritates the shite out of me when people say something is "never a red" when in reality it's come about from a second yellow as well.

I agree RedJ, about the ref failing to give the second yellow because he had just booked the player.
It does happen a lot though and today was a classic case of a ref doing just that.
As you say, it shouldn’t happen but it often does.

That second hack on Wilks was probably the worst foul in the game and went unpunished.

Aside from the two errors mentioned above, he deffered to to linesman in 2nd half to give a throw in to Bradford that I was sure was ours and that ref must have had a far better view of in first place

The Lino flagged for one throw when Marquis kept the ball or part of it in easily.

Absolutely right, A Yellow is a Yellow and he did not reach for a Second Yellow "so soon" after dishing out a first.

That is wrong because as you say it was in the context of the game a clear Yellow and they should dish one out.

Too many apply the wrong type of common sense - same with Penalties in the first Minute which are ignored as "too early". Its a Pen so give it

Anyway I am bang on message with my 1 Point as he is averaging 1.06 !

He tried to let the game flow in the first half but went card happy at times in the second. The challenge on Wilks was a definite yellow and their left back went flying in two footed off the ground and luckily missed our player.
To me they were the two worst challenges in the game though there were a lot of cynical and petty niggly ones.
