One of the linesmen is travelling to Watford from Lancashire on
Tuesday as well.

And Shaun Hudson from Sunderland making a round trip of over 630
miles to the Cardiff City Stadium on Saturday. This is Shaun’s
first match at the Cardiff City Stadium, I didn’t think it would
come in the middle of a pandemic!!

To be frank, travelling that distance for a non full time
linesman at the best of times is excessive but during a pandemic
it borders on madness

Darren Blunden is the only one I can recollect.

I am happy to run the line at Crewe Alex if it will help! ;D

In a similar vein of co-operation and a genuine desire to help I
also am willing to patrol the line at Portman Road. To offer to
'run' it would I fear be promising what I couldn't deliver. On
reflection, Stockley Park is probably more suited to my
abilities.

Hehe!
Mr Artis was a regular visitor to Fulham and he failed to
impress on every occasion. He really didn’t have the physique to
run the line adequately... how he passed fitness tests was
baffling..

The red card issued by David Webb to Lerma of AFC Bournemouth
seemed harsh to put it mildly. It seemed to me that a Luton
player knocked into Lerma as they both went up for the ball and
Lerma's hand then caught the opponent's face quite accidentally
as a result. I am apparently not the only one who thought that
Webb made the wrong call here. If only VAR had been available.
IMO the card needs to be rescinded.

And on missed red cards Linington failed to issue a standard 2nd
yellow and i think it was Salisbury should really have sent
Deeney off.
Good decision from Eltringham, Harrington's double yellow as
straight forward as they come
