       Most Premier League clubs were expected to do exactly that over
       Christmas.

       And unless their game at Blackpool has been moved, Tranmere
       might have to do it this week.

       I imagine he will be in the crowd to see his beloved Rovers (and
       Lee Mason) in action before heading to the Heathrow bunker for
       Monday night duties  ;D

       Huge congratulations to Marc Edwards - completely unexpected to
       see a first year get a fourth round tie but surely a great
       reward for an excellent start to his FL career!
       Not if you saw him Shrewsbury v Rotherham. I've very seldom seen
       a referee put less effort into a game, can't even say if he has
       a sprint and wouldn't recognise him as he never got out wide
       enough to be seen.  He failed to caution for two blatant trips
       to prevent breakaways and turned his back nm play while the
       keeper was kicking from hand, allowing the forward to foul him
       with impunity. I would love to see the observer's report.  Very
       surprised as I understand he is from the North East where they
       generally produce far better.

       I had my first viewing of Marc Edwards last Saturday (Doncaster
       v Coventry). He didn't do much wrong, but I thought he was
       rather fussy and gave a lot of soft free-kicks (to both sides).
       On balance though, I prefer seeing some of the younger referees
       rather than some of the rather uninterested-looking old lags we
       tend to get at Donny.
       Incidentally we had his wife, Helen, on the line at the previous
       home game. I wonder if they have officiated together. Some years
       ago I recall a game (at Chesterfield, IIRC) where Sian Massey
       and Rob Ellis (as they then were) were the assistants. (I don't
       know if they were an item then).

       Hooper probably the most experienced in not having VAR being
       used given his sporadic PL games....
