       Hi Ref Watcher
       Good to see we are mostly on the same page again.
       I obviously didn't make myself clear, I didn't mean to imply he
       was biased against Peterborough as I said he didn't caution for
       players from both teams for challenges that maybe warranted it
       based on previous cautions.
       However, I do think that it was obvious he would caution the
       next Peterborough player to commit a foul after the sending-off,
       if nothing more than to 'manage' the game.
       Agree that the 4th official got the handball decision correct,
       but not sure how the LOTG accommodate this?
       As you stated, his officiating did lead to frustration all round
       which could contribute to his number of Red Cards.
       All correct in themselves, but born out of frustration of
       earlier decisions

       Does seem to suggest that poor officiating in the first place
       leads to players getting frustrated and then the cards flourish.
       Kettle and Young fall nicely into that bracket.

       Law 6.
       The referee, assistant referees, fourth official, additional
       assistant referees and reserve assistant referee are the
       ‘on-field’ match officials.
       With the exception of the reserve assistant referee, the
       ‘on-field’ match officials assist the referee with offences when
       they have a clearer view than the referee
       :)

       Thanks for the clarification.
       Thought, they could still only 'report on offences where they
       have a better view', after the match.

       To be fair to Alan Young the Northampton defender certainly
       handled the ball for the Leyton Orient penalty.  It was a pity
       that Young missed the shove in the back that the defender
       received in that incident.

       Kettle, Young and Breakspear are all very poor referees. It's no
       co-incidence that they all hold individual card records !!

       A pity ? Yes.   Surprising ?  No.

       A general theme seems to be prominent on these boards... the
       puzzle of how Young has managed to be elevated into the NL when
       the majority of his performances scrutinised here draw very bad
       reviews.

       Even more puzling is why he was given such a high profile ( For
       Division 1 ) top of the table clash at Ipswich towards the end
       of last year. Just about the most senior match which could be
       awarded to a NL referee and one in which he amply displayed his
       complete inability to officiate at anything remotely like a
       level of basic competence.

       I was at the match, watching with interest.
       He appeared blindsided for the 'handball' that lead to the
       penalty so was unable to see the push in the back, that caused
       the handball, which is shown clearly on the video.
       Prior to that, early in the first half he could/should have red
       carded a Leyton player for very serious foul play instead of
       just a caution.  It probably fell, wrongly, into the "too early"
       category which didn't enhance him with the crowd or players.
       Regarding the red cards following the penalty, having seen the
       footage from behind the goal it appears that our player
       forcefully attempted to retrieve the ball from a home player who
       was running away with it in hand.  Another home player came in
       at speed and 'rugby tackled' our player into the advertising
       hoardings.  Obviously a melee occurred, which looked mainly
       handbags but our player and the rugby tackler were red carded
       which was probably a justifiable sanction.
