       great team, they compliment each other well. Really proud of

       really capable of. Love it.

       Both ARs are at their best as well. Love it. Have a major soft

       Purely a guess, but it looks like Hatzadakis is pursuing a
       career as a referee in the lower leagues, so potentially a spot
       could open up.there soon. Dan is surely number 1 candidate,
       however the likes of Mainiwaring, W Smith and Hopton could also
       be competition.

       [/quote]robathon would probably have the advantage one became
       available as he is in a secure team of 3 with a very good

       No fuss, good communication great positioning and was right with
       the penalty. He gave a great advantage and yes the team said
       they will have Kavanagh back claretman 😜
       Both Assistants were really good as well. I have always rated
       the 3 officials today and today they were really good.

       The ‘crusade against diving’ really leads some people astray…

       Is it not supposed to be contact with consequence these days and
       the days of slight contact and players going down like they’ve
       been shot ended?

       Could be the injury was hampering him.
       I thought it was a penalty, however I think Isak thought he
       wasn't getting it and threw himself down to make the point, or
       make sure it was checked - I know you can't but I'd love a ref
       to give the penalty and book the player for taking the p***.
       Thought Forest were excellent as an aside.

       I really like Chris Kavanagh as a referee as well as both ARS
       Simon Bennett and Dan Robathan. What Kav has that most referees
       don’t is the ability to talk to players. Referees like
       Coote/Bankes and Tierney just result in throwing round cards.
       I’d like to see Kav get a cup final, preferably him and Brooks
       for the cup finals. Could use Mainwaring and Robathan/ Sian if
       she comes back the Premier League.
       Also, would like Robathan to replace Hatzidakis and see Kav get
       some EL knockouts and ECL knockout games with Bennett and
       Robathan. Alternative would be Bennett and Betts for now

       Lone voice. Really? You sure? [emoji12]
       FWIW, I didn't think it was a penalty. Purely from the pov that
       initially I thought it definitely was, then there was an angle
       that I thought it definitely wasn't a pen, and then another
       where I thought, oh actually it possibly could be. So much
       ambiguity and uncertainty surely meant that Jarred Gillett could
       not comfortably reach the mark of it being a clear and obvious
       error.
       I also thought the advantage for the Wood goal was insane. The
       crouching down, holding the whistle told everyone watching he
       was blowing, he was ready, then he put his arm out and Wood
       bagged it. Such a great example of delaying the whistle until
       the absolute last second. ( Simon Hooper are you watching?)
       Also, notable mention to Si for the great non offside flag when
       I think everyone in the stadium and watching at home thought it
       was offside. I agree with other posters and agree that this is
       really shaping up to be the PL dream team atm.
       Just wondering wishfully for the end of the season and if Kav is
       line for FAC Final this year, would that preclude Simon from
       being included in the Final team?
