       I think travel distance may be a factor in appointing referees.
       As the current regulations stand, they would not be allowed to
       stay overnight either before or after the match - so would need
       to travel both ways on the same day. They should not be using
       public transport (train) and would not be allowed to share a car
       with somebody outside their household.
       I don't think you will be seeing Oliver, Taylor or Dean in
       London or the south coast the rest of this season.  It would be
       interesting to see the geographical spread of the referees and
       what are their closest clubs. That will dictate a lot of the
       appointments!

       It seems VAR will still be run from Stockley Park so presumably
       some officials will have to travel a fair way - I can't think of
       enough southern based SG1 officials to cover Stockley Park and
       games in London/South Coast. I guess they'll probably double up
       VAR officials quite a few times with most games being played in
       unique slots - e.g. on Saturday one VAR does the 12.30 and 17.30
       games, another does the Saturday 16.00 and 20.00 games.
       They'll have to work out a way for Newcastle to play down at
       Bournemouth and Brighton, and for Southampton to play away to
       Everton and Man Utd and so on, so you'd hope they'd have
       suitable protocols for match officials to travel where
       necessary. Otherwise we might end up with Simon Hooper on the FA
       Cup Final!  :o
       Michael Oliver was due to referee Spurs V Man Utd and Mike Dean
       was down for Bournemouth V Crystal Palace so I guess we'll find
       out pretty quickly what the policy is.

       Premier League and Football League referees haven't been allowed
       to travel together for a long time.  Even if they live in the
       same town, or even next door to each other, they have to travel
       on their own.

       I thought the post was referring to the players not travelling
       together - obviously match officials would normally travel
       separately as you say but players would normally travel by
       plane/coach together, which i'm not sure can happen now.

       The thing for me is the total lack of competition integrity
       here. How is it fair, and where is the integrity, of increasing
       substitutions mid way through the season? We're ending with a
       competition that never started, and that just isn't fair across
       the board.

       Newcastle to Bournemouth isn’t much further than London to
       Durham. Perhaps they need to speak to Dominic Cummings about
       travelling for 6 or 7 hours all in one day without any fuel or
       comfort stop 😛
       The thought of Hooper on the F A CUp Final is the stuff of
       nightmares too 😱

       Yes, I have visions of Mike Dean turning up ready changed at
       AFCB (? where do they stand on changing facilities?) for a
       7.45pm KO, and then driving back to the North West after the
       game (? no hotels open?). At least it will be light at 4am. bmb
       - could you possibly put a tent up in your garden or does that
       constitute an overnight stay?  ;D
