       Interesting to see change of policy in using SG2 referees for
       both legs. Guess it tells us who is well thought of at that
       level. Personally I think Championship play-offs should go to
       SG1 officials though. There's an awful lot riding on them.

       Absolutely no surprises here once they had decided to use SG2
       for both legs of the Play Offs.  Harrington has crept up a bit
       under the radar perhaps.

       Gillett and Brooks confirmed as the top two in SG2 ( as indeed
       most of us already realised )

       I think the fact that SG1 refs are not being used at all for
       these semi final playoffs has much to do with the number of PL
       games left to be played between now and 23rd May. I think we
       shall see a SG1 ref on the Final (as usual).

       What struck me was the the 40 in the first 3 games are well
       established referees, even 'old-timers' now in some cases, but
       one of the newer guys, Mathew Donohue gets 4O in the 4th game.
       Does Tim Robinson refereeing one of the semis indicate he hasn't
       fallen in favour perhaps as much as one or two have suggested,
       or does it simply confirm he is a leading SG2 official but not
       necessarily SG1 material?

       Agree on the basis that I don't see the Championship final going
       to an SG2 referee outside of the above list.  I presume that
       this means one of the four above will be candidates for the
       League One final.

       I have seen Gillett on several occasions this season and he
       hasn't impressed me, I'm afraid.  However, he does seem to be a
       'referee-by-numbers' type of official which they seem to like.
       So no doubt he will be fast tracked to be another automated SG1
       before long.  I just get the impression that he is another who
       knows the rules but not the game.

       Disagree I have seen him a few times and I've been impressed
       with him.. Always up with play, foul detection very good, not
       card happy, leaves the game flow.
