       That's at least 5 gone from Level 1, so will need at least the
       same number promoted to compensate

       Still going. Now the oldest referee on the list.

       I think next season Andre Marriner will be the longest serving
       official. I hope it won't be his last season but I might need to
       start preparing bmb jr emotionally for that particular
       retirement!

       Brett Huxtable too.
       [/quote]
       Huxtable appears to be relatively young. Is this due to an
       injury or moving away does anybody know ?
       [/quote]
       Brett also has a very young family. He does live in Great
       Torrington in Devon so every match is some distance for him to
       travel. I suppose with injury and young family something has to
       give.

       Is C. Boyeson still going? And A. Woolmer?

       James Adcock is not a Select Group 2 official he was removed
       from the list so the 1st post here is incorrect.

       He and Kevin Johnson have both done posts on facebook announcing
       their respective retirements.

       Joint with Kevin Friend, I think, both joining the list in

       This is correct.
       Marriner’s first game was Lincoln v Oxford, and Friend’s first
       game was Scunthorpe v Bristol Rovers — both games in the old
       Division Three.

       How old is Haines? I thought Woolmer was top of the elder
       statesmen in the EFL?
       [/quote]
       He'll be 57 this year.
       [/quote]
       He is 53 next February, and is looking to complete another
       season — according to reply #105 on this thread:
