Last chance saloon for Siebert, under Dallas’s eyes?
Decent game for Gillett wasn’t expecting that

Gillett seems to be having a bit of an international resurgance
- San Siro last week and now a very decent Nations League game.
Odd as before that, he hadn't had an on-field international
appointment for many months

I’m wondering if, with AT’s retirement, whether they’re looking
for another English referee (technically in this case) to bring
into group 1, and they’re looking at JG. It’s the only
explanation I can think of suddenly giving JG such good
appointments when he went ages with only VAR appointments.

Or having done 2 very successful tournaments as VAR time to test
his on field. Just in case
Got to remember he has FIFA experience from Asia.
Good luck to him

I’d go further and say could he be the next elite official?
Brooks is in group 1 at present but seems to have had injury
issues.. perhaps Gillett is being fast tracked?
