Saw him at a couple of TRFC games last season and was the best
of the new additions to the list in those.

He’s had the misfortune to be in the middle for some of the
worst performances by Tranmere v Accrington last season and
Barnet this, so I was paying less attention to the referee than
usual when at the latter game. Thought he was generally
reasonable though maybe let too much go in the early stages of
the game.

That might suit us we won’t want a stop start game. Thank you

Hopefully Bradford get Boz’s experience of Richard Eley rather
than mine - he did have a good game in the second of three times
i’ve seen him but the other two have been pretty poor. I found
him lacking authority and wanting to stay under the radar,
rather than deal with the game that’s going on.
I look forward to seeing Elliot Bell for the first time this
weekend, with several Championship games under his belt already.
Nice games for Michael Barlow, as mentioned, and Jacob Miles
too.

Refereed at Crewe Alex in August and I thought he was very good.

Have to say I was largely unimpressed by Mr Eley, particularly
in the first half. The first yellow card was awarded to Max
Power, but there was no contact with the Exeter forward who
successfully deceived the referee. This was shortly after one
reckless tackle and one SPA weren’t sanctioned (Sweeney was
later cautioned for an extremely desperate SPA, would have been
his second or a great chance to score for us)
Second half was better - Exeter had a goal ruled out for
offside, unsure from where I sit but no complaints from their
players. Having said that the two cautions late on were
inconsistent with how he officiated the game and I don’t know
where he got 6 minutes added from. Areas to improve, main
positive was he was very fit and always up with play.
