       I would say there is only one club in the country with ‘Rovers’
       in it’s name which has big history

       Neil Hair rarely disappoints. A referee, in my opinion, destined
       for the top.

       Why do you both have such a positive view of Mr Hair? He was in
       the middle for Rovers v Bolton recently and can't say he made
       much impression either way, aside from what seemed quite a harsh
       double yellow card sending off for Bolton's Delaney.

       Crewe v Portsmouth off tomorrow due to frozen pitch. Slightly
       surprised as it's been cold here but no snow or ice. Oxford v
       Wigan moved to Sunday. Eight games already off in L2, more to
       follow?

       Crewe fans will not lightly forget Neil Hair's wretched
       performance in their game at Plymouth in L2 last season,
       culminating in a joke penalty award which helped Plymouth to win
       2-1. Fortunately both teams were promoted at the end of the
       truncated season.

       To be fair to Neil Hair it was Tom Nield who had a blinder in
       the Plymouth v Crewe game last season.

       Probably seen him a dozen plus times live (incl some non-league)
       - he's always looked the part and generally performed rather
       well. Sadly "not making much impression either way" is a way
       above average accolade. In the land of the blind .....

       I would think most games are at risk of being iced off..... it’s
       already -5 here in Eastbourne when I left work at 20.00!
       A pity given that the fixture congestion is building up with
       Covid problems....
       On the plus side, Kettle will be top of the highlights for
       league 2 this weekend!
