Again, thank you arabref!
They do seem to be using many of the ‘newer officials’ as 4th
Officials for the Premier League matches. Gives some of the
‘older hands’ a break.

Mention in the FA Cup thread of a new FIFA AR having to wear his
FA badge today due to delays. No such issues up here as Ryan Lee
had his new badge on at Dens Park this afternoon, and a quick
check of RaithTV on YouTube confirms Duncan Nicolson had his at
Starks Park as well.

An unexpected top flight debut for Sean Murdoch last night who
took over from John Beaton at halftime. I’ve not heard of
anything controversial, so sounds like he did an alright job.

Saw the briefest of highlights on the BBC and Sean Murdoch did
not seem out of place in the Premiership. I think he’s mid-30s
so I wonder if age is slightly against him? Wonder if that is
the case with Messers Grainger, Snedden and Wilson? Not sure how
old Ryan Lee (still not convinced about him) and Duncan Nicolson
are in relation to FIFA badges and planning for the future?
Finally, many thanks, again, arabref for continuing to post the
appointments.
