Is today a first venture into Stockley Park for Sam Barrott? I
don’t seem to recall him being a VAR at all.

He has been AVAR on a few occasions in the Premier league and
also last season in the FA Cup

Andy Madley and his team letting us down in the 19:30 KOs. The
only team ref in yellow.
I wonder if there was a personal request of blue by someone down
on the south coast.
Two helpings of purple too with Bramall and Kirk.

Disappointed to read comments from Everton referencing Tom
Kirk’s inexperience at Premier League level. This is nothing
more than a deflection tactic following a poor performance and
result against a struggling opponent. Michael Keane is a good
enough player not to have to resort to pulling an opponents hair
and Jack Grealish demonstrated pure petulance and stupidity to
receive two yellow cards so let’s applaud a young talent for
having the courage and conviction to carry out his duties
diligently and courageously.

In fairness, Moyes did say he had no defence for Grealish's
actions although he wasn't happy with the Keane red card.
On the subject of Tom Kirk, his first Premier League game was
Burnley v Crystal Palace at the start of December. Although
hardly a difficult game to referee, I thought he did really well
and ensured it wasn't difficult.
