       Ah, a South Coast man.  Thank you for the information.
       At the beginning of the season there was a site which showed all
       the Match Officials and the quite specific area they came from (
       more specific than just counties that is ) but now I can't seem
       to find it. Would someone please post the link.  Thank you in
       advance.

       Not from the haunts of Coote then,  though if Mrs Brook, or
       Carl's significant other, were to be called Sally that would
       keep to the Tennysonian theme very nicely !

       You're welcome, Whistleblower.
       The EFL website gave locations for their officials at the start
       of the season but apparently had second thoughts and reverted to
       just names. I found knowing their locations interesting. I
       assume the EFL has its reasons for removing them.

       I wish I had printed off the list. Referees' locations have been
       a strange interest of mine over many years.

       If you want precision, I think you'll find it's St Leonards
       which is most certainly "the Hastings area".
       Whistleblower,  Charlton have faced Bolton no less than 95
       times, with Bolton generally having the best of things.
       Carl Brook's two Roots Hall League matches were in the "behind
       closed doors" era. I have seen him at Portman Road thrice,
       resulting in 9 points, 12 goals scored, none conceded ...... so
       little criticism there. Before that I'd seen him several times
       in non-league and his elevation was not a surprise.

       Yep, St Leonards-on-sea is definitely Hastings-esq.
       Not my favourite locale to visit at all…. Some areas are totally
       derelict!
