There’s one major National League issue far from sewn up! At
least Drysdale won’t be anywhere near what could be the deciding
game on Saturday week.

Most certainly, I didn’t make that very clear but it goes
without saying! I’d expect one of those candidates on the verge
of SG2 like Finnie, Reeves or E Bell perhaps at Spotland next
week.

I think it could be a game that deserves one of Taylor, Oliver
or Kavanagh, personally :)

Or Marsden..

Already had him 3 times this season and as I keep saying, he has
been absolutely fine on each occasion.

Should it be a winner takes all match, it could potentially have
a SG2 on it which also in my opinion would be more than fair to
both sides.
However, I don’t feel like the appointing officers will do this
- in my opinion, it will be one of the most trusted and reliable
National List officials there is and for that reason my pick is
the experienced Martin Coy but will be happy to be proved wrong
if it’s a SG2 official.

Parsons is also straight back into action tonight in the middle
at Bolton v Stevenage.

Precisely!! On a par with those three based on his previous
visits to Spotland as you state!

Crewe Alexandra FC (First Team) v Milton Keynes Dons FC (First
Team)
Football League 2
Referee: Kennard-Kettle, Zac
Assistant Referee: Topp, Jake
Assistant Referee: Cunliffe, Mark
Fourth Official: Barlow, Michael
A fit, young referee but his performance was poor. In the first
half, MK’s 32 committed 5 fouls, yet none he was cautioned for.
None of these fouls was actually worth a caution but defo
could’ve been booked for persistent. He also had to be told off
in the first half for wrestling in the box off the ball - once
again, this is persistent.
The first caution of the game, 15 or so mins in the second half,
came unfairly on Crewe’s #6, and I’m not sure why this was a
caution. It was for a trip. It can’t of been SPA, reckless,
persistent etc I’m not sure whatsoever. A couple of mins later,
an MK player was shown a caution for SPA correctly.
The major KMI came around the 60th min, Crewe putting pressure
on MK albeit 2-0 down. Our striker was through on goal and then
was hauled down by the MK defender. How this wasn’t given as a
penalty and then a red card beggars belief. I will leave a link
to a clip of it below.
5 mins were added on in the first half, which I thought was very
very generous. The same amount of stoppage time was added second
half yet a lot more happened in this half. 7 at least for me in
the second half.
Overall, an MK side who was a level above Crewe. They were
fantastic and good luck to Tranmere who face them next week!
Zac and team were inconsistent in recognising what should be
penalised. A Crewe supporter near me shouted “you’re as sh** as
your dad!”

Correct non-award for me. There is a minor hold which does not
impact the attackers movement who feels it and goes to ground.
The fall is not close to being consequential of the contact.

At the time, it looked as though the defender also clipped his
knee onto our attacker’s leg too which may be the reason why the
attacker went down

I can’t personally see that as the case, but I’ve been wrong
before.
It does look close to being SFP after the player has gone down
mind 🤣
