of Ipswich an obvious 2nd yellow, no booking for a double
jeopardy penalty against Chambers of Ipswich), two missed
penalties in favour of Ipswich one clearly blatant, disallowed
goal which should have stood (very strange as no flag from AR Mr
Farmer but when players lined up for restart Mr Young went over
to speak with AR and goal was ruled out for offside. Ball was
played by a defender). According to press reports comms not
working was given as an excuse), poor use (non use) of
advantage, poor foul detection. So much frustration from both
benches and players. I am positive a more experienced referee,
with less whistle, would have had half the bookings if that, as
so many were borne out of frustration, and we would have seen a
better game.

Also included the deserved booking of the Wycombe keeper for
persistent time wasting, but actually for a rare instance when
he wasn’t!

Time wasting does not have to be persistent for a caution. He
could have been cautioned any time from the second minute and to
allow him to waste time for about 85 minutes was unforgivable
and incompetent.

I managed to take in this match and I have to concur with
m'learned friend nemesis and ex-ref. This was a performance of
staggering incompetence; the word inept doesn't even come close
to doing it justice. It reminded me of Topsy in his pomp; no,
actually, I think this was worse than most of the stuff Topsy
served up. Young looked like he was officiating at about seven
or eight levels above what he could comfortably manage.
I have never seen ( or heard much ) of him before and unless his
drastically improves I don't want to do so again. I really do
hope neither he nor the Match Observer were satisfied with his
performance because if they are, then the game of football is
doomed.
All that said, knowing how the system appears to ( not ) work,
Young will probably get promotion at the end of this season !
