       Following Hendo's point about Robinson being one of the SG2
       VARs, it would be a pity if not being part of that group means
       that promotion to SG1 is unlikely in the near term given all the
       favourable comments made on this site about Robert Jones as an
       example. If that were to be the case, then it would set up
       another hurdle for younger officials to be promoted quickly. Are
       SG2 or NL refs given any training with VAR at present? Certainly
       FOs are drawn from the non VAR group and as Langford's
       refereeing at Chelsea showed, not being involved with VAR did
       not prevent him from handling the game relatively successfully.
       Maybe my concerns here are groundless.

       That was his only game since the November international break

       bode well for him.

       The appointments for Christmas/New Year were released on Thurs

       Steve Bruce quite critical of Tim Robinson after the Burnley V
       Newcastle game. Suggested he was not ready for Premier League.

       I have seen the game on MOTD. I think it’s a little bit of sour
       grapes by Mr Bruce. Two big decisions really. First the corner.
       Mr Robinson initially gave a goal kick. His Assistant has
       obviously had a word in the ear . Changed to a corner. It’s the
       correct decision. No foul there for me and his defenders should
       have done better at the corner. Second incident is the yellow
       card for Carroll. Spot on for me. Carroll is a big bloke and has
       caught Mee with his elbow. Mee hadn’t left the ground so Carroll
       was always going to contact him on his way down . I don’t think
       he has gone to do him. Never a red card. I seem to recall that
       the PL managers did the same the last couple of seasons. Have a
       pop at any SG2 refs who have their first couple of games in the
       PL. . I think he did okay and hopefully they will continue to
       give him and others these games. Burnley v Newcastle was always
       going to be a battle game for any ref. When all said and done
       its how the Assessor and PL view it.

       I was at the game and I honestly don't know why both managers
       were complaining about the referee. He did a good job in very
       difficult weather conditions.
       There were possibly a couple of decisions which were
       questionable, however, the players do not help when they are
       going down and rolling around when they just feel the slightest
       contact. Fernandez had been guilty of this on a couple of
       occasions and this is what he did when Burnley were awarded the
       corner, on the AR's advice, from which they scored. The AR was
       correct, having seen it on MOTD, the only query I have on this
       is was the whole of the ball actually over the line when
       Fernandez was lying on top of it? Looking at how players place
       the ball for corners and goal kicks it certainly was debatable.
       Carroll was his usual robust self all afternoon and was always
       one of the favourites to receive a caution, however, I think
       that the yellow was correct when he hit Ben Mee, although there
       will be players dismissed these days for lesser challenges.
       All in all I though that Tim Robinson and his team did a decent
       job in a front of a very partisan home crowd and the usual
       Geordie faithful. In spite of VAR etc. I just do not think that
       the officials are finding the job any easier because of the
       eccentric behaviour of a lot of players ( I won't use the word
       which springs to mind!).

       And, would someone like say, Anthony Taylor, have made different

       Poor form from Bruce and Dyche, to be honest.

       Classic diversionary tactic from Bruce. I wonder where he could
       have learned it in his playing days?

       Haha --I like that!
       Bruce did have previous with this referee because he was
       refereeing the Carabao Cup game between Newcastle and  Leicester
       earlier in the season which I attended. It was the game in which
       Choudray for Leicester received a caution  for a very bad tackle
       on Ritchie, who has not played since that game in August. Bruce
       was not alone in thinking that it should have been a red and
       this probably came into his thinking when he did not get the
       decision for the Burnley goal.
       As far as the comments made by Sean Dyche are concerned, he just
       said that Carroll could easily have been dismissed for his
       challenge the way the game is today --he is correct. His main
       point related to why a 'rookie' referee should be given a
       Burnley v Newcastle fixture because if they are good enough to
       referee in the PL they could be given a match involving one of
       the big clubs. I have to agree with that concept, in fact, a
       game involving the big clubs would probably be less physical
       than the game yesterday ----que sera sera.
