       Unrelated. Scott is up Durham way. James is/was the director of
       the CORE program at Derbyshire FA

       Scott Oldham is from Poulton-le-Fylde, near Blackpool.

       Given the cold weather forecast I think more games will be iced
       off before the week is out.. add corona on top it could be a
       messy few days.

       The Oldhams together at Boundary Park would indeed be pleasing.
       Presumably one as referee, the other as 4th. If you ever got the
       choice then pick James to referee. He's a not unpromising
       official whereas Scott....well the least said the soonest
       mended.

       Looks like the game at Forest Green will be “fogged” off.

       On Quest on Saturday night, they concluded that the ball was
       over the line at Northampton, as you couldn't actually see it
       until it emerged in front of the 'keeper. I couldn't help but
       agree with them.
       [/quote]
       OK, bias, but Northampton claimed that what could be seen over
       the line was their goalie's arm rather than the ball. I'm not
       disputing that the ball may have been over the line, just that
       Marc Edwards and the AR on the far side were hardly in good
       positions to see whether it had crossed the line. And officials
       should never guess an outcome, should they?!
       [/quote]
       If neither of them could see it what is the alternative to
       guessing?  Abandoning the match?

       No, not giving the goal, that's the alternative. It does happen
       from time to time.
