       So a gold star to referee James Oldham and the naughty step for
       4O Paul Kelly perhaps?

       Paul Kelly at Gillingham. Well he didn't have far to go !

       I suspect that the refereeing team will be marked down for
       failing to correctly apply the Laws of the Game, but doubt if
       the result of the game will be impacted.
       It does raise an interesting point.  We have always been taught
       that - if a substitute is not ready to enter the field of play -
       not to hold up the game and to execute the substition at the
       next break in play (assuming the sub is finally ready!).  In
       this case, this was the last "window".  Do we:
       i)  Hold up the game until he is ready?
       ii) Restart the game and - as all of the "windows" have been
       used - refuse to allow the substitution?
       iii) Allow an additional "window"?

       Funny enough he’s from Chatham, not far from Gillingham

       I don't think that the referee could allow an additional
       'window', rules are rules. however good or bad they may be. I
       suggest a word in management's ear from the referee or 4O might
       be best, in other words, get your last sub on p.d.q. or they
       won't come on at all.

       If 4 sub windows were used, and that isn't clear as one says it
       happened and another says they tried but the referee wouldn't
       allow it, then that is an incorrect in law situation.  That's no
       different to messing up a penalty restart after encroachment,
       playing extra time when you shouldn't or vice versa, and if
       there was a complaint then realistically it would have to be
       replayed and all 4 officials would be charged and likely
       suspended.
