Not too bad but made a mess of a couple of decisions (thankfully gave a free kick instead of a pen)

[Champagne Super Rovers]

Not as bad as some but I thought he bottled the big decisions.  I thought the foul on Rowe was inside the box and they should have had a penalty too.
Also allowed that Kitson Lewington to referee the game for him but like I said, not as bad as some.

... agree on all those plus I called him for 2 high feet [one per team]

Was it Rowe in our box 2nd half - that just HAD to be a Yellow

2 - but on my scale maybe too high !

Actually he and the west side Lino got the decision on our second goal spot on. Initially I thought them goal should have been signalled offside. But, listening to the discussion on EFL goals on Quest he got it spot on, as their player made a genuine attempt to play the ball he actually played Hiwula on side. There would not be many in the stadium, especially Lewington, knew the correct interpretation of the law. So well done him for that.

I sit in very back Row where Cameras are. MKD had 2 at least

Manager / Coaches spun round and queried with their arm - is it offside. The 3 on the gantry shook their heads and use their arms to say "not offside"

As their Captain they should have maybe told Lara Lewington a bit sooner than they did
