Well I wasn’t expecting SG2 refs to handle the play offs but
congratulations to all! Especially Geoff Eltringham, who has had
a very strong end to the season in terms of appointments!
A possible Stroud farewell?

Hmm, not convinced by those appointments, especially Stroud's.
I wonder if this was the plan anyway because of the 10 Premier
League games requiring referees and VARs, or if it's because no
Premier League referees have been used since Project Restart.
It will be interesting to see who is used for the second legs
and the final - I do think these games should go to SG1
officials who, theoretically, are meant to be the best in the
country.

I think that was the arrangement up until 2008 - not sure
exactly when it started though. I remember in 2003 when Reading
were in the play-offs and non-Premier League referees were used
for all four semi-final games (both legs), including Howard Webb
and Makr Clattenburg who hadn't yet made it onto SG! Steve
Bennett from the SG then did the final.

I would also expect SG1 officials to be used in the 2nd legs.
Just a note about Stroud at Swansea, it seems the madness of
appointing officials to teams in quick succession isn't limted
to just SG1. Stroud did Swansea V Leeds 14 days and 3 match
days ago. Also would of thought messers Robinson,Brooks or
Linington would of got one of the games if they were using SG2
officials.

Shocked I must say. I think I would have preferred the likes of
Jones and England to referee PL games and bring SG1 refs in, as
they have done previously.
Interesting to know where in any list Stroud and Eltringham
fall, given that SG2 officials did all the L1 play offs as well.
Hope the ball runs kindly for all involved

No surprise the big hitters out for the second leg. I would
expect Dean or Pawson for the final now.
