Bramall opens up the season at Arsenal.
Brooks for us at the Cottage, and Attwell with a big game at
Newcastle.
Also, how ridiculous is it to have Kavanagh as fourth official
on a Saturday after refereeing in Kazakhstan on the Thursday,
and the early kick off too!
Madness.

In such a fast changing world I think it’s reassuring to see the
PGMOL, or ProRef or Howard’s Angels or whatever they are now,
have not changed their policy of absolutely screwing their
officials who return from far away UEFA trips, I’m surprised he
isn’t reffing on Friday night!
