       hasn't got a game but that probably means he will get one of the
       Carabao Cup semi-final second legs or he is away at some sort of
       Uefa Seminar although I don't know if there is one scheduled for
       this month. No game for Gillett either which probably suggests
       he's either doing one of the Fa Cup replays or is gonna get a
       Carabao Cup semi-final also.

       I think when a referee doesn't get an appointment at all in any
       capacity it normally just means they are unavailable for
       whatever reason as opposed to anything else. I believe Oliver
       was replaced as VAR at the weekend too.
       I guess it's possible someone at PGMOL has been reading this
       forum and decided they'd better not appoint Oliver to any games
       until it becomes clearer where Newcastle might finish in the
       league :)

       How do referees actually get to games? Assume he will fly,
       probably the same as Kav after the game on Saturday up in
       Newcastle before his VAR appointment. Not good appointing for
       me. Long way to, drive from Ashton  to Newcastle then flight
       down to London. Then assuming his car can teleport, drive back
       to Ashton.

       No he doesn't. He may well have lived there many years ago but
       he doesn't live there now and hasn't done so for many years. He
       doesn't even live anywhere in the Greater Manchester area. I
       have said this a million times on here when all the 'he
       shouldn't get the Manchester teams because he lives there'
       complete and utter rubbish starts.

       Yes that stuff is none sense even if he did live in Manchester.
       However, regardless of where he lives its still a long way from
       Newcastle and Shockley Park

       On the subject of how referees travel to the matches they'll be
       officiating, I recall seeing Kevin Friend on a London North
       Western train heading to Liverpool the night before he
       officiated an Everton match in 2018/19 ish.
       He alighted at Runcorn so I assume he stayed in a hotel there
       and was taxied to Goodison Park the following morning. Nice
       bloke and engaged in some friendly conversation with other
       passengers.

       Given the current state of the railways I am not sure that rail
       is ever a better alternative given the importance of arriving at
       the appropriate time (or day).

       Kavanagh does doesn't he, Ashton Under Lyme.
       [/quote]
       Kavanagh lives between Blackburn and Manchester so he could go
       to Manchester and park then fly to his game and then fly back to
       VAR appointment then fly to Manchester to collect his car.  The
       appointment secretaries do need to show common sense with
       appointment and make sure that officials can get the adequate
       rest between games whilst travelling.
