       Bankes and Jones make their first appearances of the season (and
       also Wade Smith) - otherwise a completely predictable set of
       appointments.  Still no sign of any of the new referees, while 5
       referees are on 3/3 appointments.

       And of the 5 referees who have received 3 appointments out of 3,
       Oliver and Taylor's 3 games have all been broadcast live on
       SS/BT!

       We're yet to see Hooper, Kavanagh, Friend and the 4 new referees
       in the middle.  Friend has a Championship game this week so I
       guess he's had a minor injury.  I would guess Kavanagh is
       injured as he's being quite heavily utilised on VAR with 5
       matches in the first 3 rounds.  I think this is Hooper's first
       appearance of any sort in the Premier League this season, so he
       may be on the comeback from illness/injury.
       I do hope Oliver and Taylor will be given weekends off soon -
       both have matches in Europe, and Oliver had one last week, yet
       both have been used the following weekend.  All that travelling,
       combined with weekly PL appointments is surely going to lead to
       burnout/dips in form if they're not careful.  There really is no
       excuse when they have so many referees in the group.

       I couldn't agree more greeny!
       Another thing that flumoxes me is officials acting as VAR and
       then referee on consecutive days. Would it not be easier for an
       official to be VAR Saturday and Sunday and just chill in London
       overnight?
       On the subject of VAR, interesting that Harrington, Salisbury
       and Brooks have not acted in this role yet. I assume they have
       yet to receive their training?

       Brooks was a VAR when it first got introduced, so he's had some
       experience of VAR already, but may need a refresher.
       Harrington and Salisbury both have 4th official appointments
       down south when they are both northern based, so I'm wondering
       if some training will be going on at Stockley Park.

       Pawson flies back from Serbia on Friday, straight off to
       Liverpool for 4O duties and then 4O duties at Burnley the next
       day. Ok 4O isn't as taxing as being referee but standing around
       trying to keep focus and babysit the managers while tired and
       stiff from travelling can't be much fun either. They should all
       be given 1 of 2 weekends off completely if they have a mid week
       Europe game.  It's not just the travel and living out of a
       suitcase away from home for a week or more there's the
       disruption to their training schedules and giving their bodies
       time to recoup.

       I was really excited when the 4 reds were promoted. There will
       be lots of changes this season i told myself - no more stupid
       trips for VAR and then reffing, a rest after European games etc.
       But alas, the real world stepped in- PGMOL has not change and I
       am resigned to the fact that they never will

       What is the point of promoting the new refs if their not going
       to get a game especially with the prem taking a break for World
       Cup qualifiers I thought at least one of them would feature in
       match day 3
       Mostly same refs apart from Jones and moss so it would be nice
       after the World Cup qualifiers to see a new ref listed
       Salisbury,gillet,Harrington or possibly brooks
