Alan's Young's debacle at Portman Road, at what was at the time
a top of the table clash, cannot have done his reputation any
good at all. Of course, everyone has a very poor match from time
to time but this performance really was of such staggeringly
dreadful proportions. It suggested to those who saw it that he
hadn't got a clue what to do when authority began slipping away
from him. To call it inept would be to flatter him. I guess
something like that takes a lot of moving on from.
Ross Joyce was mentioned in terms of promotion to SG2 and got a
couple of Finals at Wembley but it doesn't seem to have done him
much good since.
Clearly Samuel Barrott is impressing the right people but I
haven't seen him so cannot offer any personal insight. I think
Will Finnie is a bit of a slow burner. I would be very surprised
if he doesn't end up as SG1 one day.

Getting my first viewing of Mr Barrott in Rovers v Peterborough
Pizza Cup game tonight, will be interesting to see him in
action.
Not that impressed with the selection of officials for the two
TRFC league games. Mr Young for the reasons set out and Mr
Robert Madley because of some debatable decisions against us in
his previous spell at this level.

Watched Mr Barrott tonight, a generally reasonable game was
marred by a poor penalty decision where the Peterborough player
ran into the Rovers defender. Fortunately it didn't affect the
outcome.

Not to forget that Ross Joyce received a couple of Championship
appointments during that season which ended for him with that
play off final. Dean Whitestone and Matt Donohue were the
promotions in 2019 and they were not appointed to any
Championship matches that season.
It will be interesting to see if Barrott and Speedie follow
Donohue, Smith and Doughty in gaining a promotion to SG2 after
one EFL season.

What was strange was that Ross Joyce refereed the playoff final
after being 'rested' for a month or so for some reason. He is
one I think, like Stuart Attwell and Robert Madley who might be
benefiting from not being under so much pressure to perform.

His month off came after a staggeringly awful performance in the
Walsall v Southend match on 19th April. One of his more minor
transgressions was appearing to show the Southend captain at
least 2 yellow cards without the normal red to follow. Things
like this seem to upset the powers that be much more than the
embarrassing incompetence that preceded it.

Even as a Middlesbrough fan I hope Dean Whitestone has a good
game in his fixture.
Hopefully no controversial incidents to ease him back in to his
first middle since the Fry Incident

Ross Joyce and Alan Young seemed to be in favour but they have
certainly gone backwards I think. As for those on the up, Marc
Edwards perhaps, Will Finnie certainly, and Benjamin Speedie and
Samuel Barrott without any doubt. Thoughts ?

Hope Marc Edwards has a better game tomorrow at Scunthorpe, then
he had at Shrewsbury on Tuesday night, after the Crewe player
had is leg broken by an horrendous and intentional challenge
from his opponent, for which he played on with the player in
pain on the ground and cautioned the offending player when play
stopped.

Any referee prepared to stand up to Steve Evans deserves a medal
and promotion!
Cannot believe that Mr Evans and his delughtful number 2 dont
pick up more cards.
Hats off to Samuel
